For any long running series, one of the most common topics amongst the hardcore fans would: how do all the games fit in chronological order? Some franchises make that easy, just going from the first installment to the most recent one, however others are more complicated. Sonic the Hedgehog, is one of the complicated ones. This week's video is going to be a full compilation of the Sonic Timeline series I did back at the end of 2022 with some updates to make it the definitive experience.

This franchise has certainly had its ups and downs over the years. But no matter how disappointing some of these games are, Sonic the Hedgehog as a whole, will always be one of my favorite game franchises of all time. The vibrant, exciting levels, the epic stories, the soundtracks that absolutely slap, the cool 90's charm and heroic nature of Sonic himself, and of course the rush felt while rolling around at the speed of sound make this a series worth remembering and holding out hope that the next game will be better than the last.
Well said my friend.
So true.
Well said
ok 👌
If you mean Frontiers I have to say it was pretty great
Sonic Adventure 2 is like the start of the New Testament
It's funny because the OG sonic games were for the Genesis
😂😂😂 @@lemonyanva1976
What I think is worth mentioning is that in the japanese version of TSR, Sonic mentions to Silver in a pre-race intro, that Silver has lost his fighting spirit and how when they first met, he always said stuff like "I'll destroy you" and stuff akin to that.
Silver saying he doesn't remember said things happening.
This confirming that Sonic is probably the only character who remembers the events of 06. Or at least the ones he expirienced
I think Izuka also said he thinks Shadow remembers those events as well which I’m on board with, I would’ve liked Silver to also be hinted at remembering it so Team Triple S all remember their game
Knowing Sonic & (possibly) Shadow know what unfolded in 06. Silver would have a hard time remembering his story in 06 as he's now a clean slate, besides the familiar feeling he had with Blaze the Cat.
I'm okay with the event of the game being exclusive to specific characters or exclusive to Sonic.
@@MegaMet98 I'm pretty sure Sonic is the only one who remembers
We already knew that in 06 funnily enough
We haven't got confirmation for Shadow in the games
And Silver just outright doesn't remember
He only has a familiar feeling with Blaze
Sonic 06 had almost nothing to do with Sonic, J said it himself that 06 was about Shadow, Silver & Princess Elise.
How Sonic was still able to retain the memories of 06 after history gets reset is anything beyond me.
I mean, I didn't make the story
I just know it is like that
He probably remembers bcs well, he is the mc after all and has plot armour and also bcs he was with Elise when she blew out the flame. Tho why he remembers and she doesn't I can't tell you
I love this series, been playing it since I was a little kid. The speed, the fun characters, the colorful and interesting levels, and the story. Even with all the rough patches throughout the years I can never bring myself to separate from sonic
soo true me to my man
close for me, but am always hesistant aftee 06, took years to regain my trust
I've loved the Sonic games for as long as I can remember, but man, when Forces came out in 2017 and it was the biggest pile of wasted potential ive ever seen... That would've been the last straw if frontiers didn't turn out as well as it did.
boy. i thought it was just a blue hedgehog running around beating up robots, boy was i wrong
Imagine how much faith Sega could restore in their audience by doing a full reboot of the story and doing it right. Everyone wants the story starting at Sonic Adventure to be done in a way that really makes sense so if they did full remakes of those games people would obviously buy in. It's been long enough that the old audience has forgotten a lot of the game, the new audience would see it as fresh material, and most of the story for the next like 4 games needs to be revamped regardless so it seems like it could kill many birds with one stone and take Sonic back into its more serious direction which makes more logical sense than appealing mainly to children. I mean, most sonic fans are adults nowadays.
I don’t know if that’s too much true. Younger audiences still love Sonic Games just as much, if not more than they did a decade ago
Don't know if this would be a good thing for Sonic franchise. Something feels strange for me when a franchise's whole focus is remaking/rebooting old games and not creating anything new. Sonic's lore/plot really is a mess, but... well, this seems like those people who live their lifes remembering and reviving the past, unable to experience the present and venture in the future. In reality, I get this feeling with Sega's treatment to Sonic franchise too: they're giving a HUGE importance to nostalgia, and it feels strange.
I will never get over Omega’s violence towards Eggman, something about his bluntness is so funny to me. Team dark is so fun
Dude, this is easily your best work. Props to you!
Literally💯 bro work ethic is diff❗️
It’s literally just a compilation of prior videos lol
@@mr.redacted767 He means all of those videos 😐
i would love to see a new sonic anime similar to sonic X, that takes your complete timeline and tells the whole story of sonic thru dozens if not hundreds of episodes. with official ports/remasters of the games coming out in tandem with the episodes / seasons of said anime. so many possibilities and potential.
I've literally been wanting that for the longest time!
that would be amazing.
@@ddsbo Amazing… but expensive and highly unlikely.
Dozens? There are endless possibilities.
Hey that’d be cool. The first episode would start with Classic Sonic and Sonic 1, and the the ending would probably just be a set up to another Sonic game coming out at the time.
holy shit, i wish i had this when i was first getting into the series!! this is so well explained, thanks so much for this
Fix your grammar
@@michaelg4981 I fixed it, now fix your grammar
According to Ian Flynn (if I remember correctly), for games that had both a console and handheld release, the console releases are considered canon. Meaning, handheld counterparts aren't canon, with the exception of Colors.
How does that even make sense if Colors DS contradicts a lot of Colors Wii
@@HOWLWOLF
Charmy Bee in Generations.
Sonic Colours DS is not canon.
@@patrickdixon7202it has hella information about the side characters. I would rather that game be canon. Plus, super sonic boss fight.
@@BigteenGoingOff2 Still not canon.
When it came to Mania and Forces, I always considered Mania to be canon to both timelines.
Mania sends Modern Sonic to encore mode to explain where the Ruby at the beginning comes from.
And Mania sends Classic Sonic to Forces, and then that sends him to Mania Adventures.
I know Izuka said Mighty and Ray are exclusive to Classic or whatever, but we also are talking about the same series that reconnected the two timelines anyways. So who cares.
Besides, Gens featured Mighty & Ray posters and I just love Mighty & Ray to much to not want them to make the jump to modern titles.
Yeah, I've always been pissed that Izuka prevented them from actually being actually expanded upon. It'd be great to give them new designs, voice acting, fleshed out personalities (maybe Ian Flynn would take inspiration from the Archie versions if given the chance), and give us their first cannon interactions with the Chaotix. Plus it'd be great to finally reveal what the hell these two have been up to since the classic games, though since those Gens posters say they're missing, perhaps something bad happened to them.
@@connorbeith3232 maybe. I remember hearing from I think the person who made it that it’s non-cannon. But it doesn’t really matter as they can be canonized.
@@michaelg4981 I know, but I still feel like this was intended at the time.
@@michaelg4981 Same. Mania Adventures has the better continuity with Forces anyways.
Mania is now before Superstars with Superstars now being the last game before Adventure according to Sega.
Its noteworthy that Sonic X gives explanations for all the plot holes mentioned in Sonic Adventure 2. While not 100% canon, you could argue certain aspects as being retcons.
For instance, A section of GUN was trying to cover up the incident regarding Project Shadow, & intentionally made Sonic the scapegoat for Shadow's crimes in order to continue the cover-up.
As for Rouge & the Master Emerald, her Emerald radar found it while looking for the Chaos Emeralds.
There's also the fact that Sonic X was the first instance of Shadow having Inhibitor Rings, which was then used for the ending of Shadow's story in Sonic 06.
Sonic the Hedgehog was my first ever video game.
I'll never forget getting Sonic 1, 2, and 3 with a Sega Genesis 3 for Christmas when I was 5.
Here I am years later, and the only other franchise to hold an equal place of love, reverence, and appreciation that Sonic will always hold is LoZ.
My son is 5, and the occasions he specifically asks to play any Sonic or LoZ absolutely melt me.
Great video man.
Awwwe you're passing the torch!
46:01 Nah, that one's incredibly simple. G.U.N. needed to keep Shadow's existence a secret in spite of his crimes, so Sonic became a convenient scapegoat.
It's always nice to relive gaming stories through these timeline videos 🐱💕
The fact that this amazing video is only a month long really shows the research and dedication . You rule dude! I love this video so much.
That month went fast, felt like 2 hours
I never knew how much other characters used too impact the story I really want the series to do this again
It’s crazy how sonic is so established but feels like it’s never tapped into its full potential , I’ve play all of these and I still feel like I haven’t gone through a solid journey with sonic, I feel satisfied with Mario, Goku, Link, Sora , Rachet, but still not sonic and he’s the best character lol they need the edge again just done with higher quality and depth.
Sonic really speedruns as Mario in 06' huh.
Saving and having a princess getting captured repeatedly
The recasting after SABK was honestly MY most impactful moment in the timeline.
Thank you for this. I am only 8:49 into this and you are helping me. I’ve been ‘convinced’ to do some Sonic fanfic and needed a crash course in Sonic Lore. Just the detail of Eggman being a nickname adopted out of spite is huge for me. Can’t wait to watch more of this to actually get an idea of what I’m going to do for the story.
I'm curious about any updates on this
Robotnik also makes more sense as a name, consider the doctor's minions are called "BadNIKS".
Technically the name Badniks was also a US invention but I prefer the name. Gives them some personality
@@autobotproductions1244 Interesting; I figured as much. I just like how BadNIKS sound like they belong to RobotNIK. Kind of like how "The Koopas" sound like they belong to "King Koopa" (who unfortunately goes by "Bowser" now in the US market).
For me Sonic the Hedgehog is one of the greatest video games ever created. I cant imagine my life now if Sonic never existed. I am a Sonic fan 4 life and that's WAY PAST COOL!!!👍👍👍
I never actually thought about sonic 06 restarting the timeline (or making an alternate one), it makes sense now why blaze returns after sacrificing herself.
Everything is canon. DeviantArt is canon.
Unfortunately
“Psshh, nothing personel, kid”
Trevor is canon
I think another thing working with the Riders games in canonicity is the fact that with Frontiers confirming Tangle and in the process the IDW comics (which take place after Forces) are canon to the main universe and in the final stretch of the Metal Virus arc in the IDW comics Amy called in the Babylon Rogues to help the heroes get the Chaos Emeralds so Sonic and Silver could go Super to cure Sonic and the world so Riders and Zero Gravity (preferably not Free Riders though cause frick that game) have to be canon and take place at least before Forces so that can happen, not like futuristic places like that aren’t weird to suddenly see after Metropolis in Forces
Anyone else remembers in the opening of sonic unleashed when eggman is about to press the button if you look fast enough you will see a dreamcast 🤣 it's little things like that just has me like yeah sonic unleashed Is still my favorite sonic game
Very interesting video, honestly I never noticed how many plot holes the series has. It was still cool to see the timeline and this explained a few things that I was confused about.
For the "Canonicity" of Sticks in the main canon (look at Sonic Runners) all it says is "She's a friend of Amy" and that's it (and also Rio 2016)
Sticks will never be canon.
@@errorstudioz 🤡
I don't think Runners is cannon considering it has characters that shouldn't have been able to return, and the cast not recognizing said characters.
Though I wonder how long Sticks has known Amy in the main cannon, or where she was during some of it's major events. I feel like Amy would have met Sticks sometime after Forces or TSR since she's not seen or mentioned in any cannon game prior to Frontiers.
@@connorbeith3232 Please stop trying.
@@patrickdixon7202How about you Let People Enjoy Things
Watching through this entire thing made me very emotional, thank you for taking the time out of your life to make this kind of video
it is very good that you came back and changed things and not just slapped 3 videos on together and also made it look like 1 video and not 3 video back to back. you put a lot of effort into this keep up the hard work!
Everything means EVERYTHING
Including fanart
run.
No it's mainly game
I have a question to all fans, if another time ending event like the end of 06 was to happen would Eraser Djinn be set free, after all Sonic's wish was "My third wish. Eraser Djinn! You Shall live out the rest of time, trapped in your lamp as you where in days of old", knowing how these things work in other media wishes stick close to what is said.
So if a timeline shatter was to happen again then he should be free right?
this video made me smile alot. Both as one of those fans who, as you mentioned, cares more about the characters and the world they live in than the gameplay itself - but also just....you know..as a fan of the series it was awesome to see such a video video decicated to sonic and the story it tells. To be honest I even took some notes and saved the final timeline image to help for my own sonic works and possibly making my own "headcannon" for the timeline of events! Sonic will always be a huge part of my life and I'm beyond happy that nowadays more people seem to be willing to show their love for sonic, unlike when I was a kid and it was just....the lame thing to be into. I love this series and this video was an awesome tribute to the entire series so far. Awesome job!
In fairness to Sega, with regards to the Sonic 3 release before the game was "finished" (that is, with the &K part), it isn't as simple as "never mind, do the Happy Meal toys later". Deals like that always come with lengthy contracts and all sorts of terms that mean Sega's hands were tied before they realised S3&K wouldn't be done in time. It's not that their priority was "yay Happy Meal toys!". It was contractual obligation and not being sued by McDonald's for breach of contract.
51:26 correct me if I’m wrong, but I think one of the scenes in Frontiers actually does canonize the fan theory. Both Knuckles and Sonic state how similar the Ares Island is to Angel Island (that’s somehow besides the fact that they both share the same first letter) and that in the audio logs from Eggman, he goes over how Gerald’s past must have one point brought him to Angel Island, without the knowledge of Knuckles or any of its inhabitants. It would make sense considering the shrine at the end of SA2 is quite literally built after the shrine on Angel Island, both housing a specific purpose to hone the Master Emerald’s energy
It’s worth noting that Sonic 1 is not his first meeting with Eggman.
The Japanese manual states that Eggman and Sonic are arch enemies, and this is before talking about the events currently occurring in the game.
sonic adventure games still look good to this day
20:09 i always thought there were eggrobos because eggman didnt wanted to show his real identity to knuckles, wanting to destroy him anonymously
Thanks you J really needed it for easier time to watch mutiple vids at once ^^
Your work ethic is much appreciated 🔥💯
This was an awesome video! Glad you took the time
Thank you for everything J you got me into this series. Sure I was a little bit of a sonic fan before you. I’ve played generations and forces and mania but I felt like it was just that thing that I would get into a little and then immediately stop like a month later and that’s what happened but when I found you a sonic generations video and your whole retrospective it made me realize just how good some parts of this series is to be honest I’m not the biggest fan of sonic adventure one, but I still love that game because of the ambition you got me into sonic and I am incredibly grateful. Thanks for everything J
Great video, is it just me, or is it rare to find someone speak about Sonic so passionately, especially the stories, and the head cannon, both things I love. Thank you for the video!
This is an amazing video you put together. It must have been a ton of work and research to do. I give you so much credit for putting it together the way you did, kudos. 🎉
I'm what you call an elder Sega fan, I was a kid when the master system was new.
So I've witnessed Sonic's lovely, if slightly inconsistent, game releases unfold over the decades.
The fact that you J decided to tackle this bonkers timeline and actually made it make sense... I salute you 🫡
You had me at sonic timeline
This needs far more recognition!!! Thanks a bundle
Very thoughtful and well made video!
Recently its been comfirmed in the comics written by Ian Flynn that tails sky patrol came before tails met sonic
as one of the world's five Cream fans, i feel so validated that you placed Sonic and Cream's campaigns as the only canon ones in Advance 2 💪
Six. I’m a fan of Cream and Cheese too
Seven. I got not hate
Dude your work is amazing. I will revisit this video forever.
Thank you very much
I absolutely love sonic and the black knight, hands down my personal favorite game out of any in the series. Even tho I've been stuck on the last king Arthur fight since 2012 😭
FUN FACT! in sonic advance there's an option where if you know the code through, I don't know what resources, you can unlock shadow as a playable character
Ummm actually SegaSonic The Hedgehog is before sonic 1. ☝️🤓. No but this video has so much research and editing put into it, great work.
even if some of the games suck, the one constant thing about the sonic franchise is that the music kicks ass
I'd like to point out that this is one of the first videos I've watched on UA-cam where I've heard my own username, with the exception of videos made by myself, or my friend Ace, and the handful of live streams where my questions got answered.
Obviously, this Mephilis is the inspiration for the name. Mephilis78 was my very first gamertag, and I've kept it all these, despite the fact that I usually don't even remember this character exists. On the bright side, the fact that Sonic 06 wasn't that popular has meant I've been able to enjoy not sharing my name with anything for a great many years.
The Breakdown you gave us of all of Sonic 06 was Perfection.
thanks for making this video!
2:13:05
I might’ve said this in the original part 3, but Bean’s description in Fighters Megamix, a Sega crossover fighting, that he’s canonically the son of Bin Dynamite from Dynamite Dux.
I don’t know what we can make of that. But hey, a non Sonic game a part of the Sonic timeline does sound cool.
I've always considered Ristar, Dynamite Headdy, Flicky and Bonzano Brothers to take place in the Sonic canon, I don't know why
Ristar happens at the edge of the Milky Way, Flicky happens before Sonic 1 and Dynamite Headdy and the Bonzano Brothers takes place in a manufactured dome made by Dr.Robotnik, similar to The Truman Show.
1:36:26 just watched your sonic 06 video and im glad someone else appreciates this moment so much
I think the reason why silver sonic was in sonic 2 even though CD is before 2 is because silver sonic is supposed to be a prototype of mecha sonic
I watched this whole video and I agree with all of it! As a sonic fan I can agree that it’s all messy but I feel like it’s something less to worry about but it’s also confusing..Especially sonics age
You agree with bad research.
Thanks for making this
Admitting the existence of Shadow instead of declaring him to just be Sonic with a disguise would probably cause people to look into what happened with the Ark and bam! Suddenly the whole of Station Square wants GUN hung and quartered! Also they probably were in on the plan with Rouge but it involved having to keep up appearances by still actually trying to stop her so Eggman and Shadow didn’t get completely suspicious of her.
I grew up on the Mario series and am only now getting into Sonic stuff so this vid is a very helpful start
Idk if you already knew this, but, Vector actually calls Eggman a bastard in the japanese version of the game
My head canon is that sonic and robonik stay on south island because robotnik was wating for little planet and that when little planet left mobious so robotnik had to start from scrath and makes the mecha line of robots
This compilation is helpful because I’m essentially using this timeline but backwards as the timing framework of the game I’m trying to make. Mostly.
My head canon on the silver/mecha/metal sonic conundrum is that metal sonic only appears in CD due to Eggman's time travel shenanigans. After he is destroyed in that game Eggman makes attempts at recreating this machine from the future by creating silver sonic, then mecha sonic before finally recreating the same metal sonic he saw back in CD
So there are actually two Metal Sonics?
Sonic adventure 2 sold over 1 million copies on Dreamcast, I wouldn't say it sold poorly for the time period
We can also connect all timelines by saying that the Chaos Emeralds distort the fabric of realities , those who come into contact with them also have their realities distorted.
If i remember correctly the gaia cycle in unleashed happens every few million years, so since the ancients are described to have arrived 10k years ago I think it‘s more likely that the emeralds were taken from „earth“ after the last gaia cycle and then somehow got to the ancients before they returned them to „earth“.
I love how in advance 3 the character pairings shows them interact, eg: sonic and amy in the select screen
I would disregard so many of the games that you included, but like you said at the beginning, it's pretty much up to the fans to make sense of the sonic timeline so the fact that you did include some games I wouldn't have is fine. A lot of things I would have just explained away as easter eggs or cameo appearances, and thus not really canon to the main lore, even though the game those appearances are in IS canon. I appreciate your dedication to trying to fit them all in though, seems like something I would do for other fandoms, but ironically not sonic's lore... I don't know why.
Also, wanted to say that 06's plot is criminally underrated. Your summary of it reminded me of how good it was if you ignore the cringe romance between sonic and elise. It's a shame it was such a bad game. And the redesign for Eggman... oof... glad that didn't stick.
17:53 Is it possible that Robotnik was able to use future tech to help make Metal Sonic, but without those resources his artifical Hedgehog technology would be set back?
Ty! I’m trying to get back into sonic. :)
great video man!!
This is EXACTLY the video I was looking for.
36:36 I already knew that “chaos” could also be pronounced as “more than one chao” but I never knew that it was an evolved form, that makes the word play even neater!
Ironically team darks team blast leaves a continuity issue because shadow has the green emerald at the very beginning
Could be a replica
@@AsecasJavi it couldn’t be a replica fake emeralds only been utilized once in the games and SA2 did that but how would shadow be able to obtain one when he was stasis again
@@AdamSelvig omega has it

2:10:00
My head canon says toss out the "dimension" change in Forces, it's a rearranged past, and all classic Sonic adventures after Genrations are this Classic Sonic and at 2:17:00, my theory is that the phantom ruby ends up there after mania portals it and Classic Sonic away
Low key I enjoyed knuckles chaotic. The songs were pretty good
You know your channel is amazing when Raid Shadow Legends is your sponser
What really stands out about Sonic in comparison to other platform game franchises, or even other animated franchises is that it has its own canon. Sure, it has often been confusing and some games have strayed from the canon, but it is impressive that it has had this epic canon that has always kept progressing.
I really thought I was the only person to have so much trouble with Big's Sonic Adventure Story... 😂
Fun fact: The Japanese manual for Sonic 1 states that Sonic and Eggman had already met before the events of the game.
Probaly robotnik as ovi kintobor
@@Rexy_THE_T-REX No, that all American cannon.
@@Rexy_THE_T-REXAmerican backstory doesn't count
I want to headcanon that during the Sonic 2 ending, Sonic escapes from the Death Egg in his Super form, but then loses his ring energy and falls, with Tails then saving Sonic.
Did anybody notice that he just put a FAN REMAKE in his TIMELINE of official Sonic games
When he puts Sonic Triple Trouble in the timeline he replaces it with the fan remake made by Noah Copeland because in the original Knuckles is tricked by Eggman again into thinking Sonic wants the chaos emeralds for world domination but in the remake Metal Sonic (unexplainably) takes on the form of Knuckles to destroy Sonic and now Knuckles is off to stop Metal Sonic and collect the chaos emeralds (as told in the prequel fan comic despite not being able to collect them in gameplay) he scattered across south island (the game's setting) and this game retcons Knuckles' story in Sonic & Knuckles
Shadow being confused for Sonic doesn't make sense from an audience perspective. Sonic from an in-universe perspective was seen transforming with the Chaos Emeralds in the previous game and is known to run super fast. A black hedgehog was seen stealing a Chaos Emerald, while running super fast. It only makes sense to consider Sonic a suspect since he has been seen changing his form before and fits the description. It'd be like if the police just decided not to suspect Spider-Man if Venom broke and entered somewhere to steal something. They don't know what we know. Lol.
@JsReviews I Like Your Review of Sonic The Hedgehog Each by Game and Year!
This is an amazing job!
This is awesome man
In frontiers Sonic mentions Tangle from IDW could this mean the zombot virus is canon?
Seems like all of idw is canon
Mario lore: Bowser kidnapped the princess, I have to save her.
Sonic lore:
Despite the Haters and a few misses here and there….. Sonic has NEVER NOT been cool. Since His debut, He’s always been a total Badass…. And Honestly speaking, in order to rival Mario, He’d HAVE to be…..These are just the facts! 🤷🏾♂️💯💯💯
I used to be into Sonic as a kid. I lost interest in it due to some of the games having iffy plots with holes in them and a toxic fan base.
But now as an adult, I have a new appreciation for the series in that it is the unique product of multiple writers adding lore and iterations to the story. It isn't always cohesive, but there are definitely some interesting sci-fi and even mythological concepts in the series that makes it fun to dissect.
