Revisiting 2-C (12 Universes) Base Sonic, Low 1-C or 2-C (2 Universes)?

Introduction
Hello, I would like to thank everyone who has participated in this wiki and everyone who has helped grow the Sonic section of the wiki. However, there has always been one rating that has bugged me, and I am making a CRT to hopefully bring discussion and soon change this rating. Please be mindful that this is my first CRT, and so all help is welcome. Without any further introduction, let's begin.

The Issue
Modern Sonic's Base Form Attack Potency is based on him surpassing his varied Super form, which has the power of 2-C (12 universes). This is because the Sol Emeralds, which are equivalent to the Chaos Emeralds, were causing Blaze's universe to merge with Sonic's, creating space-time distortions that would eventually lead to the destruction of both universes. These two universes are parallel macrocosms, each comprising 6 universes.

Debunking 2-C (6 Universes) Prime Macrocosm
However, I am here to debunk this, as all the evidence given to us shows that this "macrocosm" is either a low 1-C construct or simply just a Low 2-C construct. This is because the Sonic's cosmology page lists the "6th" universe as the Void, which contains and exists between the 5 shatterspaces.

If this Void is simply a 4D construct, then it should be continuous with all other 4D constructs and, in total, just be one really big universe with 5 different regions.

If it is one big universe, then it would simply be a low-2-C structure.

Likely Alternative Explanation of Low 1-C (5D) Prime Universe

HOWEVER,
there is ample proof to suggest that the 5 shatterspaces are distinct parallel universes that are simply distorted versions of the original reality. If this is the case, then by proxy, these areas should NOT be considered regions but entire universes. But what does that make of the Void? Well, if the Void can contain parallel 4D structures and exist between universes, then the Void should be considered a 5D construct. That is because in geometry, in order to have two parallel planes, you must have a higher ambient space to contain them, and in this case, it would be the shatterspaces and the Void.

Broken down in a syllogism, it would be:
P1: Distinct parallel 4D universes cannot be externally separated within the same 4D continuum without collapsing into regions of one larger 4D universe.
P2: If distinct 4D universes are externally separated or contained by another space, that containing/separating space must possess an additional axis beyond the 4 dimensions of the universes themselves.
P3: The five Shatterspaces are distinct parallel universes, not merely regions of one shared universe.
P4: The Void contains and exists between the five Shatterspaces.
P5: Ergo, the Void possesses an additional axis beyond the 4D Shatterspaces.
C: Ergo, the Void is at least a 5D construct.


Addressing Counterpoints:
Objection #1:
Although parallel lines, planes, objects, and universes require a higher ambient space to be parallel, in fiction, it can simply mean "another existing universe."
Reply: This is true; however, these universes are called parallel whilst being contained within the void. If the void is simply just 4D, then it would be continuous with all the shatterspaces and thus would only be 1 universe; however, these regions are called universes and even a multiverse, and so these 5 universes must exist in a higher ambient space to truly be separate universes. Given all the evidence suggesting these areas are truly separate universes, the best explanation with the least amount of assumptions is to say the void is 5D.

Supporting evidence would be a Maginaryworld in which the 4D Space area contains all the 3D spaces. Thus, this shows visual continuity within the series when wanting to show higher-dimensional constructs.

Objection #2:
This would upgrade Sonic's base form to low 1-C, however given what we know about Sonic this would seem to be an outlier.

Reply: I am not proposing a new feat but simply upgrading (or downgrading) a previous one; it would not be an outlier, as it would simply explain all previous feats. For example, in Sonic Generations, Sonic is able to restore universes, dimensions, and timelines. If the universes are truly 5D, then this would be consistent with the aforementioned statements. TLDR: it's an upgrade, not a new feat, so if it was consistent before, it should be consistent now.

Supporting evidence is that Sonic was able to outmaneuver and tank attacks from Void, who is 5D and likely even existentially 5D. Granted, this may be ring hax. I am okay if one throws this supporting evidence out.

Objection #3:
Upgrading the Void, Sonic, and every character who scales to him would create a problematic precedent. If the Void is treated as significantly higher-dimensional on this basis, then similar reasoning could be applied to other Sonic constructs, such as the Exception or Egg Field, potentially forcing broader upgrades.
Reply: If the argument is sound, then its implications should be accepted. If this line of reasoning would suggest making an exception or even the Egg Field 6D, then truth matters, and thus they should be upgraded as well. Now, if these other structures do not meet those requirements, they should obviously not be upgraded. The issue is not whether the conclusion has broader consequences, but whether the reasoning and evidence are valid in each specific case.

Objection #4:
But like Cream the Rabbit and Zomon's Sandwich or something.
Again, if the argument is sound, then its implications should be accepted. Cute and seemingly harmless characters within verse may be a menace cross-verse. We already have Cream at 4D based on the same reasoning. All we are doing is upgrading a feat; if she scaled before, then she would obviously scale after. Also, Zomon's Sandwich solos your fav verse, no difficulty, and lowkey there should be a page for it.

TLDR;
The Prime universe macrocosm is either a Low 1-C (5D) construct, or it is a continuous Low 2-C universe, not a 2-C macrosom of 6 universes. The evidence suggests that the prime universe is actually a Low 1-C (5D) construct, and this explanation has the least amount of assumptions, so it should be upgraded to Low 1-C in addition to all characters who scale. Regardless, the 2-C (6 universes) rating must go.

Agree:
Neutral:
Disagree:

You need to prove its significant in size
This was the closest i could find that addresses ur claim

 
This thread is somewhat redundant, one already exists for this very topic. The only reason it isnt going anywhere atm is because of a verse-wide scan issue taking place.

Also, while this is inconvenient, all verses abide by a maximum limit of active CRTs for each verse. The Sonic franchise is at its limit of 5 major CRTs per popular verse.

The 5-D stuff... I have no clue lol. My knee jerk reaction is to reject it but I'll be honest, I only gave it a quick skim.

Thank you so much for responding. My apologies, I did not know the Imgur Scan issue was that large nor did I knew about 5 Major CRT limit.

However, I would like to say that my thread is different from Sparkive's thread, as mine actually presents a logical argument as to why the 6 supposed universes cannot be 6 universes, because the elephant in the room is the Void. The Void contains and exists between the 5 shatterspaces, and so if the Void is simply a 4D construct, then all the shatterspaces can not be separate universes, but must be continuous with the same 4D construct, i.e., one universe.

HOWEVER, these shatterspaces are called universes and multiverses, and so according to the narrative, they are truly separate universes. And so this leaves us with option 2, being that the Void is a 5D construct. And this wouldn't be inconsistent, as it visually resembles Maginaryworld's 4D space. Similarly, the Egg Field is also considered to be 5D for containing multiple dream worlds inside of it. Granted, it is also called an "infinite super other space," but it still shares a similar function.

The Void also has "infinite size" statements. Granted, one could debate the tenacity of this statement; however, one could not deny the logical veracity of the void being a 5D space. The only question would be if it is significant in size. And I would say, with the statements we have, it is at least probable.

Again, thank you for responding and for your work on the Sonic Wiki.

Hey man, no problem! I'm not trying to be a hall monitor or something, just wanted to let you know for your benefit in any future instance.

With the bolded part, I don't believe that's inherently true on the wiki but I don't know that with 100% certainty.

Ah. Hmm. I'll be 100% honest with you, I have a slight bias against 5-D Universe/5-D Base that leaves my opinion compromised. But I'll give you credit where it's due, your proposition is the only one I've seen for it that doesn't smell like it's done for an agenda or to wank.

So I'll be neutral for now. You have a compelling case imo.
Again, thank you for responding and for your work on the Sonic Wiki.
I'm really honored by your gratitude, dude! But if you mean THE Sonic Wiki, then I have very minimal contributions there! Most of my work stays on Vs Battles (albeit I've seen others borrowing from the work of mine and others).

Still, the sentiment is highly appreciated! I've noticed these seem to be your first few posts, so welcome to the wiki forum!

Respectable first CRT. Pretty sure the tiering system FAQ would oppose your 5D proposal on the basis that the Void's 5D axis isn't big enough, but I'll stay neutral. Base Sonic scaling to Void honestly makes sense, but I think that's its own can of worms...
 
if the Void is simply a 4D construct, then all the shatterspaces can not be separate universes, but must be continuous with the same 4D construct, i.e., one universe.
I mean... They all have different flows of time. They don't depend on the Void's flow of time. That was the primary reasoning for 2-C in the first place.
 
as mine actually presents a logical argument
Hey!!!!... I mean, it's true, but please show some respect
Joking aside,
No, the important thing about this thread is Qawsedf234 Comment (25 - 26), there's discussion after that, but in short, since the Shatterverse didn't exist when the feat we scaled to base Sonic occurred, we have to directly ignore it for the Sonic Rush feat, so:

The Rush feat goes to 2 universes and the Prime feat (Sonic surviving the creation of the Shatterverse) stay 6x uni

This thread is somewhat redundant, one already exists for this very topic.
Considering that my thread ended up becoming a "since when do we scale characters?" discussion, I'd say that the attempted upgrade here isn't redundant, but the downgrade is (as long as it applies to Sonic from Prime, and not from Rush, since that has already been accepted in my threat)

But I don't know about higher dimensions (and I has a little bias against it), so I'm not getting involved here.

Thank you for your reply. Admittedly, that is one issue, as we are not certain how big the axis is. However, we can say that it is probable that the axis is significant, given that we have "infinite" size statements from Shadow. Now, the tenacity of this statement is questionable, but that would not eliminate all probability. One probable reason for this statement being accurate is that the author wanted to convey that the space is infinite/eternal to the reader in a natural way, and thus gave us this statement.


But I digress, I do grant that one could not know for sure, and so, I would suggest at the very least a "possibly" rating. Similar to how Danny Phantom has a possible rating for a hypertimeline. And the Void should definitely be upgraded to 5D, even if not low 1-C. But with everything given, I do think low 1-C Void requires the least amount of assumptions.
 
I mean... They all have different flows of time. They don't depend on the Void's flow of time. That was the primary reasoning for 2-C in the first place.
I see. My response is that different flows of time would not be enough to conclude a 2-C rating. That is because even within our universe, time can move differently due to relativity. The best example I can think of is that near a black hole, gravitational time dilation can cause time to pass much more slowly for an observer close to the black hole compared to an observer far away.

Now I am open to correction, as this is simply my immediate thoughts.
 
The CRT is very good. Honestly I think you can prove the prime universe is significant via proving how the things it would contain would be significant as well; i.e. if it's like a box that contains two other boxes and the two other boxes are universe-sized, the larger box is significant by proxy.
 
About Low 1-C base Sonic cast, wouldn't Sonic surviving attacks from Time Eater in base, even if he's clearly inferior, support it somewhat? There's also Maginaryworld chainscaling, which I believe is accepted as 5D rn, via the base cast fighting Void, as OP brought up. And Sonic also tanking the Time Eater erasing the universe. I feel like Low 1-C for the base cast might be consistent.
 
Wow this is a really well made first CRT, Incredible Job. The arguments seem logical and well structured however I am confused about something, if you don't mind explaining.
HOWEVER, there is ample proof to suggest that the 5 shatterspaces are distinct parallel universes that are simply distorted versions of the original reality. If this is the case, then by proxy, these areas should NOT be considered regions but entire universes. But what does that make of the Void? Well, if the Void can contain parallel 4D structures and exist between universes, then the Void should be considered a 5D construct. That is because in geometry, in order to have two parallel planes, you must have a higher ambient space to contain them, and in this case, it would be the shatterspaces and the Void.
The void would indeed be 5-D spatially but you would need proof of either a time dimension or the 5th dimension being infinite but I think per the recent standards just a statement of the void being Infinite in size qualifies.
Otherwise it will be insignificant no ?
 
Wow... the CRT looks really well-thought and the logic seems easy to understand, even for a inexperienced person like me.


The only problem is probably how to support the 5th Axis being "significant".


Anyway, I'll be following.
 
@ItzBanee Hey, so, quick comment only tangentially related to your OP (original post, aka the thread starter). Even if your proposal gets rejected, it was a very solid first thread (as you probably noticed several people comment lol). Sometimes a thread being rejected is most useful as a learning experience.

I do hope you decide to stick around in spite of that. You seem like a cool dude, and there is a Sonic General Discussion thread that allows for the fans of any part of the franchise (Games, Sonic the Comic, Archie, etc.) to hang out, socialize, and just have a good time chatting it up.

Don't be a stranger!
 
There was another CRT about dropping the universe count but it sort of fell into limbo.
It isn't that it fell into limbo, it's that it was decided to be for the best if the Imgur Thread was resolved before tackling it properly.

The main reason being that it would be highly ineffective for us to start adding/altering scans for AP while everything else is in a state of decay for many characters.

(That being said, I'm sure discussion on Sparkive's thread until then would be fine. There are still details to sort out I imagine.)
 
There are still details to sort out I imagine
As far as I know, it basically comes down to: when does Prime happen? Because from there the scaling to 6 universes applies for Sonic now,
and from there I assume it would follow when the rest scale to that?
 
The Void is almost similar to Neutral Space from DBS, with the exception of NS having time manipulation possible within it, and dividing 2-C constructs instead of Low 2-C ones. I feel like those differences are probably enough to negate being Low 1-C though.
 
About Low 1-C base Sonic cast, wouldn't Sonic surviving attacks from Time Eater in base, even if he's clearly inferior, support it somewhat? There's also Maginaryworld chainscaling, which I believe is accepted as 5D rn, via the base cast fighting Void, as OP brought up. And Sonic also tanking the Time Eater erasing the universe. I feel like Low 1-C for the base cast might be consistent.
I'd like to say that perhaps even if the Void that contains the Shatterspaces ends up not being significant we still have multiple instances of base characters surviving or damaging already accepted Low 1-C characters (Void in Sonic Shuffle and Time Eater in Sonic Generations), and there's also base Sonic tanking attacks from the Titans who Ian Flynn compared to final bosses from previous games. It seems kinda consistent that the base cast is in the same dimensional tier as at least the lower ends of Super Form power, which is even more consistent with base Modern Sonic already being accepted to surpass Adventure Super Sonic via Perfect Chaos scaling I think. Or as a compromise we can do "likely Low 1-C" or "possibly Low 1-C"

There's also base Sonic and Knuckles surviving attacks from a casual Super Neo Metal Sonic and the base cast holding off Metal Madness in Heroes. Now, I'm by no means trying to say they scale to him because they don't, Super Neo was obviously holding back, but it still adds consistency that the base cast are on the same dimensional tier as lower end and casual Super Form tier characters. Also ⁠Infinite is stated stronger than all pre-Forces enemies and ends up being defeated by base Sonic and I know Infinite being above all previous Super Form level bosses is contentious but like with all these other instances I'm starting to buy it.

Honestly the base cast being Low 1-C or even 1-C is kinda consistent I mean there’s 6 feats come on.

Edit: I forgot Time Eater is actually 1-C but still
