 Because there is a lot of material from the Sonic universe, I thought I would ask what the timeline sort of looks like. When I say this, I don't want you guys to compile me a list of events, but rather what has been excluded. I am not about to go around saying "Can i paly Chris Thorndyke and his fruity friends?" or "Can i fiore teh robotinizer" but you do have to remember that these are parts of the Sonic universe, and I would just like to know what exactly what exists in Sonic Cyclone. I see that it is based upon the older games, as well as SA1 and SA2, but then again, they could also tie into Sonic X since the same events occurred. And while I highly doubt that the events of the comics took place in Cyclone, do certain technologies still exist, like the robotinizer. And even the old school cartoons. Does Sonic still say "Don't be a fool, smoking's not cool." (lulz), and rock out to destroy evil (Oh god no).

I am not a hardcore Sonic fan, so I probably wouldn't even miss half of the things that aren't here, but I just want to know, just so I don't decide something like "It would be awesome if I used the dark Chaos Emeralds from the Metarex and fly into space!" (So not awesome).

Alright, thanks for the help.

 From personal experience, I tell you the things I've seen that match your query.

  • Roboticisation has been a plot point several times (the subject must be made braindead before they're converted).
  • Sonic acts as Sonic according to Sonic X (say that fast three times). The other characters are also borrowed from Sonic X, and those who appear that aren't act as if they were. If that makes sense.
  • There are no Sonic X canons. No Thorndyke family, no dumpy president, etc. I've played a minor role (Scarlet Garçia - Station Square News Team) to broadcast a battle in Station Square to a character watching from Soleanna.
  • Sonic does not rock out, and he has no siblings (or any family to speak of). Furthermore, Sonic is not royalty.
  • Despite the presence of a Gizoid character, Sonic Battle is not board canon.
  • Sonic Riders is not canon, though Extreme Gears have been made available for purchase for use by characters (at one point). Needless to say, Zero Gravity hasn't happened either.
  • Sonic Unleashed has already happened (which explains Soleanna's current state). It happened in the board reset.
  • Indicative of Soleanna's very existence in the first place, (ruined or otherwise) Sonic 2006 happened, and several bosses have lent themselves to the plot. There was no time travel.
  • Sonic Advance hasn't happened, and probably won't, but they make cameos every now and then.
  • Contrary to the skin index, Sonic Rush also has not happened. Blaze the Cat does not exist in board canon, and there is no Sol Dimension. Sonic Rush Adventure, again, hasn't happened either.
  • Sonic Adventure 2 has happened, but Sonic Adventure 1 has not.
  • Sonic Heroes has also happened (with the board's antagonist being none other than Mecha). Funnily enough, it was the first plot I ever joined.
    Common sense applies to the rest.


The list is pretty exhaustive.

#Edit.
  • The 'Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog' series is not canon. Thank be the gods for that!
  • The Fleetway Sonic Series (Featuring the Freedom Fighters of Knothole Village) also is not canon. However, it would probably be favourable in comparison to the above point.

 I don't quite understand why SA1 didn't happen, but everything else is great. Thanks Nox.

 I dunno. It MAY have happened, but before I signed up to the board. This is only going according to my experience.

Also, I added two extra points, concerning some of the more minor cartoon series..

 Lol... Thanks Nox.

Well I can understand if SA1 didn't happen on the board, it should at least still be considered Cannon, since a lot of stuff happened in that game, such as the E-100 series, an egg fortress, Chaos, character development, the works. Oh, and you can't forget Big the cat. Big the cat happened in that game too.

 Wait, Battle is considered non-canon?

Okay, shift Nine back to the approval area, NOW.

I'm remodeling.

 No, I was treating Battle as Canon, so I wasn't playing the character I 'really' wanted. Battle isn't canon. Thus, I can do whatever the fuck I want ^_^

 I'm afraid I'll have to veto your application until you hear what I have to say.
Just because Battle isn't canon doesn't mean Gizoids don't exist. The mechanics about them can apply to any robot. Mecha Sonic is actually similar to Emerl.
If I'm correct (it's hard to say), Mecha originated from Sonic CD, which is ALSO not canon.

Your two characters have many things in common. They're both originally designed as personified WMDs. They can learn, they're self-aware, and they have personalities.

With that said, if you still want your character back in the workshop, then I can move it there for you.

 Move me to workshop. Nine makes more sense as Phi. Which is to say... the ACTUAL Gizoid.
