Sonic General Discussion Zone 12: Back 2 Basics

[ShakeResounding]

Topic: In your opinion, who is the "darkest" Sonic character?

I'd have to say that, to me personally, it might be Silver.

He's a 14 year old kid who was raised into a world where death and destruction is the norm, and there's absolutely no hope in permanently defeating the main threat that plagues his world. Hell, even when he saved the day, it took the sacrifice of his best/only friend sealing herself in another dimension to do so. Then he's left alone in his future with barely anybody alive and having the task to... What? Move on? Rebuild? Neither option is easy.

Emerl is a pretty tragic and dark character overall when you analyze him.

 

[GyroNutz]

What resistance do you have if you resist nausea inducement?

Just lurking on the thread and saw this. Does anyone have a conclusive answer to this? T'would be much appreciated

STC Sonic

His life was shit from a very young age, had to fight his mentor that became evil and had to deal with his own evil alter ego...then his former mentor took over the world and he had to fight tooth and nail for years to save it, dealing with stressful and possible traumatic experiences along the way which don't help because his alter ego can appear through stres.

After freeing the world everything was in peace to the point he got bored, but then he was attacked by the drakons and even had to face a godlike Robotnik at some point which tossed him around, showed him dark stuff and even messed with his powers, imagine how powerless he felt to the point he had to trick him to win...then Robotnik went insane and tried to destroy the whole world.

After that it was another period of peace until Chaos appeared and Johnny died, he felt so bad that he quitted the Freedom Fighters temporarily until he came back and then he was send to the past, learns he had a hand in creating Chaos and therefore Johnny's death and has to rejoin with Super Sonic.

Then there's STCO, Shadow and the fugitive arc, nuff said

 

[BlastX]

Sorry if it's too long

 

[ShakeResounding]

@Ultimate Lomg is good in this case!

@Gyro I guess it would be a resistamce to Biological Manip or Telepathy depending on how it's done.

[GoldenBoyBlue]

What's a gif that can be used in almost every situation?

 

[MYHERO]

With your animation skills I'm pretty sure you can make a good one if you think about it long enough.

 

[MYHERO]

My NiGHTS profile is going not as well as planned. I don't know how to tier this guy/girl

Omniversal Battle Wiki says he/she is 2-B but shows no substantial evidence.

 

[ShadowWarrior1999]

The 2nd Existential Seed was going to do a NiGHTS profile.

 

[MYHERO]

I even asked him if he knows how NiGHTS is 2-B but never responded.

 

[ShadowWarrior1999]

There's a dream world in Nights where supposedly the dreams of everyone all become universes of their own (similar to Maginaryworld and Dream Depot).

 

[MYHERO]

Omniversal Battle wiki links me the cutscenes, but they don't give out the proper timestamp. I watched it over and over, and I haven't found where it said dreams are their own parallel realities. But hey NiGHTS has mid godly and type 8 immortality.

 

[ShakeResounding]

Eyy, nice!

Link the videos, we can help you look for it.

 

[MYHERO]

Sure. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_NnCkXt7KQ&feature=youtu.be&t=8004

If you find something that I miss I will forever hold that L in shame.

 

[GoldenBoyBlue]

ƒñª

 

[ShadowWarrior1999]

He's right about Hyper not being canon but the rest of that...he must have been dropped on his head as a child.

 

[Bobsican]

Which game gave Tails the most broken flight?

 

[MYHERO]

Sonic Adventure. I can beat Sonic any day of the week with Tail's flight.

 

[Bobsican]

I think Advance 3 can take the prize with the Tails & Amy set.

Not only Tails flies higher than in any other set, he moves faster laterally and can even wield a hammer mid-flight, and the hitbox of it is high enought to almost grant somewhat invulnerability by just smashing whatever is in your path.

And yeah, Tails in Sonic Adventure is broken, I can even beat Windy Valley in less than 30 seconds.

 

[Bobsican]

Unleashed at 60fps be like

 

[MYHERO]

I can't even play the video without it buffering for 30 seconds every minute with my shitty chrome book.

 

[MYHERO]

Guys I found the 2-B reasoning for NiGHTS. More specifically I asked Neo for the proper scans.

 

[MYHERO]

What do you guys think?

 

[ShakeResounding]

Seems fine to me, but I feel like people will ask for more evidence than that. I tried looking over the video you sent, but I couldn't find anything either.

 

[Maverick_Zero_X]

boi

 

[MYHERO]

I wish Silver had mindhax. Just seems appropriate.

 

[GoldenBoyBlue]

You'd think so with his power literally being referred to as "psychokinesis"

 

[Maverick_Zero_X]

I'm thinking about throwing Base Archie Sonic against High 4-C Mario.

 

[ShadowWarrior1999]

Wait till we get him to Low 2-C.

 

[GoldenBoyBlue]

Topic question: What's a headcanon that you've come up with for the Sonic series?

Mine is that part of the reason why Knuckles can go toe-to-toe with Sonic & Shadow (aside from having reflexes comparable to them) is that because these two give off so much Chaos Energy, Knuckles can track their movement as if he's sensing a piece of the Master Emerald.

 

[HST_Master]

Speaking of Archie, Aside from the fan comic on seemingly perma hiatus what would you have the direction go into, pre genesis?

 

[BlastX]

One of my long time headcanons is that Sonic is very capable with his Chaos Powers, but he doesn't use them cause he's already pretty OP to everyone else so in his mind he doesn't need to use them

 

[ShadowWarrior1999]

My headcanon is that Infinite's parents abused him and constantly called him weak.

 

[MYHERO]

@DaBoi NiGHTS' universe is the same as Maginaryworld.

 

[Bobsican]

Smash Bros is actually canon and so base Sonic while being trophy-enhanced is 2-A.

I mean, Palutena and Viridi even make statements about the DLC guys being explicitly form "another dimension", meaning that if anything, Galeem should be 2-C at the very least.

 

[GoldenBoyBlue]

I'm honestly waiting for Ian Flynn to get the rights to use the Smash Bros Universe just so that:

A) We finally get a Mario & Sonic crossover that doesn't involve the olympics

B) Sonic & Link crossover

C) Super Sonic v. Galeem

 

[MYHERO]

Another headcanon: Sonic is 1-A

 

[Maverick_Zero_X]

Smash Bros is actually canon and so base Sonic while being trophy-enhanced is 2-A.
I mean, Palutena and Viridi even make statements about the DLC guys being explicitly form "another dimension", meaning that if anything, Galeem should be 2-C at the very least.

If Galeem never threatens said universes then he isn't 2-C.
