Except, it doesn't render itself out of existence.

If Sonic 2006 never happened, Iblis would still be trapped in Elise's heart, Mephiles will still exist, and Elise will still bottle up her emotions

I don't know. I still think Sonic2k6 renders itself out of existence as we know it thanks to Elise pushing the reset button, and that was the game's only saving grace.

When it comes to Sonic continuity, I like to think about it this way, regardless of any official statements:

Only the main Genesis trilogy (1, 2, 3&K) is "true." The rest are embellishments, legends, outright lies, or alternate interpretations.

EDIT: Speaking of "Alternate Interpretations" ever since my theories on last page I've been in love with the idea of Blaze being an alcoholic. Someone needs to write a fanfic using that.

She reads IGN.

from Elise's Wiki page: "Possibly as a side effect of the ritual that was used to seal Iblis within her body, Elise, at times, seems to possess a small degree of mental instability, as shown when she hallucinates Soleanna in...

You know Sonic2006 makes alot more sense... well maybe a tad more sense, when you realize that the characters in it, are not our characters.

The Sonic we played as in 1991 was a hog who lived in a universe where Solaris never existed.
We only see that Sonic, our Sonic, in 'Sonic2006' for the very last scene in in the last story, after the timeline reset.

I mean 'our Sonic' went to the Little Planet, and picked up 6 time stones, and fixed time by...

XD @ the two different origins story idea

Uh...there are two different blazes and one of them is apparently dead now.

1. Blaze aced the Important Backstory quiz in high school. Silver slept through that class.

2. Blaze was drunk when she wrote her resume, put down two different origin stories, and Sega wasn't sure which one to go with. Both origins are false as Blaze is obviously from New Jersey.

Chalk up another one for you, but how did Blaze know what the Chaos emeralds were but not Silver?

And let's not forget the odd screw up of how Blaze was also from another dimension as well as from the future.

Recently I've been watching HellfireComms' playthru/commentary of Sonic '06, and I must say now that... it does not look at all like an appealing game. And unlike them I HATED Sonic Adventure DX. I might just end up being one of those guys who only likes the 2D Sonics.

Nevertheless I propose more explanations for points raised in the playthru:

1. ELISE NEVER CRYING

How can you keep a ten-year-old girl from crying?

First, keep her chronically...

Pretty much, yes.

Okay, so the team behind Fighters completely screwed up with the Chaos Emeralds?

Now that I think about it, the whole Time Travel thing probably explains why there were six Chaos Emeralds in Sonic 1 and then seven in Sonic 2.

I thought the real explanation is the following:
1. The emeralds in Sonic 1 are just for completeness junkies. 2. The emeralds in Sonic 2 are necessary for the real good ending in addition of Super Sonic.

The emeralds in Fighters matched the characters that held them.
Red = Knuckles
Pink = Amy Rose
Yellow = Bark
Maroon? = Espio
Orange = Tails
Purple = Fang
Green = Bean
Blue = Sonic

The easiest way to explain Fighters is that the orange one was a fake. Which one did Nack/Fang have before the tournament?

As for Spinball, I think we can all agree that it fits more in the SatAM(With no canonical Chaos Emeralds) or Archie(with a virtually endless number of Chaos Emeralds) universes.

Nah, Sonic 3D Blast only has seven emeralds. Fighters and Spinball are the odd men out. Fighters has eight, and Spinball has 16, I think? All blue too. COINCIDENSE!?

"Chaos energy" surely?

Now you mention it, John, I'd forgotten Sonic the Fighters had 8. I still have this vague recollection that Sonic 3D did as well, but it has been an extremely long time since I played it on any format.

How about we just say "Its magic" and let that explain everything.

You mean Sonic the Fighters..

Also, The events of Sonic 2K6 were wiped from existence so they wouldn't effect previous and subsequent game's stories.

feeds@yuku.com (darkwinguk) — Mon, 29 Dec 2008 12:55:49 GMT
Does that also explain why there appear to have been 8 in (I think) Sonic 3D Blast?

So I just watched this video after enjoying their excellent commentary on Sonic Adventure DX.

I haven't actually played Sonic '06 yet, but I do count two major flaws in their criticism:

First, the very first point, where they claim giving Elise(sp?) the blue emerald means the entire series could not have happened. HOW SO? If Silver is from the future and he brought the blue emerald into the...
