Not from Tails' comment.

Tails doesn’t even know The End exists yet, nor how powerful it is, his statement holds very little weight.

Skimming over Sonic’s resistances, stuff like age manipulation, and his matter/antimatter resistance seems sketchy. Sonic never directly resists age manipulation from the time stones, only time acceleration, and he can’t even be hit by Diablon’s particle beams or antimatter cannon.

what happens if time accelerates on you? that's right, you age
says who?
- 5,553

Not necessarily, Jojo time acceleration doesn’t work like that.
You can play the Diablon fight yourself and see; the only time Sonic takes damage is when Shadow hits him, otherwise he phases through everything cuz game mechanics dictates he shouldn’t be hurt.

Says me too, omega. Sonic wasn't in the Blue Falcon & Heavy Dog boss fights where the Particle Beam Cannon was used. The matter manipulation resistance came by enduring hits from that weapon and would not count for Sonic since he didn't get hit by it.

Sonic isn't Jojo though

I know, I’m just saying not every instance of time acceleration involves aging.
- 11,514
- 4,151
It does, we see that when pucci made a baby become old ans made eggs hatch into baby chikens
You can't use game mechanics to exclude everything that is blatant resistance dude
yeah i know, was talking about thw matter stuff
He is tho, he just isn't affected by it
- 6,842
- 2,521
I'm sure that turning a desert into a beautiful lake full of trees is definitely manipulating the age.
- 2,517

That's where the matter stuff came from
The particle beam cannon was not in the diablon fight, only the anti-matter one, which is different resistance in itself
- 11,514
- 4,151
I meant anti matter
- 5,553
- 1,543
You could argue Diablon’s beam is matter stuff, as it’s a more advanced machine than Heavy Dog and Blue Falcon and the color is the same between the two weapons
My issue is that unlike Shadow, who very clearly gets hurt by the beam and has invincibility frames, Sonic just passes through with no issue.

Jojo's is explicitly an exception where MIH doesn't affect living beings.
- 11,514
- 4,151
Which means that he has better resistance to it
- 5,553
- 1,543
I think it’s less a better resistance and more just “he doesn’t get hit because he’s on Diablon’s side and bosses shouldn’t hurt their allies in gameplay”

Lol wtf

That is the out of universe reason yes but he still get hit by it and is not affected in game
- 5,553

Can you point out some other examples of this kind of thing being accepted on the wiki?
- 11,514
- 4,151
can you point out a reason why it wouldn't be accepted? more over, an example of this being rejected?
- 5,553
- 1,543
Main reason is just the resistance is purely from abusing boss hitboxes in gameplay. Both Diablon’s move and Shadow’s attacks deal damage, however only Shadow’s actually damages Sonic. Moreover, the fact Sonic loses to Shadow here and Shadow still takes damage from Diablon shows that Sonic isn’t more resistant than Shadow, since Shadow doesn’t lose to the hax. More likely Sonic just isn’t being hit by the attack
- 11,514
- 4,151
in gameplay, but in story it would, considering how big of an aoe the cannon is, to say that sonic dodged all of it while close to shadow to hit him is very weird, the gameplay is to show how the battle went, and in this case, we can say for sure that the attacks hurt him also, specially since he is hit bey it
chaos forms such as hero and dark shadow say hi, i really don't see your point here
don't see how this matters also
the game itself says otherwise
- 5,553
- 1,543
If Sonic was hit, he would have invincibility frames considering that’s what happens when he’s hit by Shadow. This does not happen.
- 11,514
- 4,151
i covered the mechanic part in my comment
- 5,553
- 1,543
But the only place Sonic has this resistance is the gameplay, and the gameplay actively shows he was not affected by the attack at all
- 11,514
- 4,151
yeah, which shows that he was hit
- 5,553
- 1,543
If he was hit; then he would show the telltale signs of a character getting hit in this game (they get knocked down and blink with invincibility frames)
