No, he doesn't. He's a freelance writer that is just now part of a larger team. His word is not even close to someone like Iizuka.Ian should 100% be reliable in this issue as he literally works for Sega directly
I mean, that's the thing I think is most sus, the game can't even be mentioned in such an encyclopedia. And this non-canonical one can.Pocket Adventure would be blacklisted from the Encyclospeedia while Chronicles got a mention, even if it was that it got dropped from the canon (due to the whole BS with Ken Penders).
Here's a word from Shake, if a discord screenshot is acceptableFair, hope that breaks go well. But who else could I ping. I forgot @ElixirBlue was also Sonic expert who is also staff.
What does Death of the Author have to do with this? You mean your headcanon of Pocket Adventure being canon is more important than the word of Ian "Wrote a mainline game script" Flynn? Your multiplier example has nothing to do with this, since that's blatantly contradicted in the manga, whilst Pocket Adventure has no evidence for canonicity. It does however have evidence for being non-canon. You once used Tailstube as a source in a blog, and you know who helped write that? Ian Flynn. He's reliable when you want him to be reliable. Stop with the hypocrisy and choose a side Gilad.You know Death of the Author exists right? And he's not even the author. It's like if some Dragon Ball editor would one day say SSJ is a 2 times boost, so that means it must be true right?
Ian didn't wrote Pocket Adventure either, so your argument fall flatWhat does Death of the Author have to do with this? You mean your headcanon of Pocket Adventure being canon is more important than the word of Ian "Wrote a mainline game script" Flynn?
Pocket Adventure has also no evidence for non-canonicity aside from the words of a man who also had some tendencies to go into headcanon territory and outright say false stuff (not lies, but false information, like Hyper Sonic being asteroid level), so I wouldn't treat his opinion as absolute truth unlike you, especially when it's about something he wasn't involved with at allYour multiplier example has nothing to do with this, since that's blatantly contradicted in the manga, whilst Pocket Adventure has no evidence for canonicity.
I don't think that's how it works. Prove something negative.Pocket Adventure has also no evidence for non-canonicity aside from the words of a man
not lies, but false information, like Hyper Sonic being asteroid level
The work was assumed to be canon until he said it isn't. And if the only evidence is the words of a guy with questionable reliablility, then we'd need more evidenceI don't think that's how it works. Prove something negative.
Doesn't make it less wrong though. Even the Death Egg and Eclipse cannon are like planet level at bare minimum based on story statments alone without further scaling stuffIt's not like the writers are powerscalings
That's not the point. Ian should know what is and isn't canon. I admit that he doesn't know shit about powerscaling, but this statement has nothing to do with that.Ian didn't wrote Pocket Adventure either, so your argument fall flat
This statement is not his opinion. All evidence points to this being the truth. And I'm fairly sure burden of proof falls on you to prove its canon; which you can't. Ian's word isn't the be all end all on everything but using power scaling beliefs and head canons is a false equivalency. My geographical knowledge would have no impact on my ability to do math for example.Pocket Adventure has also no evidence for non-canonicity aside from the words of a man who also had some tendencies to go into headcanon territory and outright say false stuff (not lies, but false information, like Hyper Sonic being asteroid level), so I wouldn't treat his opinion as absolute truth unlike you, especially when it's about something he wasn't involved with at all
Tailstube is an official source published on the official Sonic Channel written by other people than just Flynn. Meanwhile Bumblekast is an unoficcial Q&A were Flynn self-admitted doesn't know every answer.You once used Tailstube as a source in a blog, and you know who helped write that?
why should Ian known everything about what is or isn't canon? he is but one guy hired to help the canon team, nothing else, he doesn't known every answer, he has been wrong before, why take this one source as the ultimate truth on this, specially since we don't know where he got that information fromThat's not the point. Ian should know what is and isn't canon. I admit that he doesn't know shit about powerscaling, but this statement has nothing to do with that.
"all evidence" being?This statement is not his opinion. All evidence points to this being the truth.
Ian was also straight up wrong multiple times, like the already said "only male hedgehogs go super" statement, all that this has to disprove the canonicity of PA is Ian's words and nothing more, don't act like you have a strong case hereAnd I'm fairly sure burden of proof falls on you to prove its canon; which you can't. Ian's word isn't the be all end all on everything but using power scaling beliefs and head canons is a false equivalency.
depending on the subject of geography, it wouldMy geographical knowledge would have no impact on my ability to do math for example.
Takashi Iizuka.like the already said "only male hedgehogs go super" statement
Takashi Iizuka.
.....where is the proof he said that?
The link doesn't say Iizuka said it. In fact, all sources come from Flynn, and most people there are doubting him.
