Of course. Since Elise blew out Solaris flame, the events that led to Solaris splitting into Mephiles and Iblis never happened, meaning Shadow never met Mephiles. It's thanks to Time Eater stuff that Mephiles was temporarily able to exist again.

Yes! That is Robbie Daymond, one of the guys who voiced Spider-Man a.k.a. Peter Parker in the Marvel Animated Universe!

That and how the character operated and planned everything out in 2006 like he was Aizen and Xehanort until karma caught up to him cuz he had immortality from birth just like his brother Iblis but they didn't have plot armor and you can see that what Mephiles is going through points back at what Shadow said to him at the beginning of their final confrontation

​@@silver_wearing_clothes Glad I'm not the only one who noticed that! At the beggining of Mephiles Phase 2, Shadow tells him that he won't let him escape. And even after forgetting, he ends up staying true to his words here. Mephiles didn't escape.

@@DLxxx and the fact that Shadow brought up that Mephiles doesn't care for vengeance and that his main goal was to keep fuelling Iblis until there was nothing left of time itself which obviously means that he was tryna give everyone what he's currently going through this Mephiles was afraid of not existing and being forgotten and acted out of fear and hate and the feeling of being determined to win and wanting to get it done fast the cause of Mephiles being different than the one we know is his voice sounds different and he's become desperate because he lost his abilities to fuse with his other half and to travel through time and space which means he can't used that electric sphere of destruction either Elise limited this Mephiles's arsenal when she blew out that candle so he can only split himself into shadow clones like his first and second phase and become one of those giant demons and fire ceros and phase into the ground like how he did in his first and second phase and lastly he can use the death spear that he used to take Sonic's life by surprise and can get sealed away even if he has a physical appearance which is a downgrade to his traits and the fact Mephiles was worried in his fourth fight with Shadow about losing and not being able to exist and being forgotten is a down grade to his character maybe he lost a lot of iq points too over the past years prior to 2006 cuz how they handled him here is not exactly the Mephiles I know cuz Mephiles is what kept me playing 2006 they put so much character and made sure he was accurate on point and no flaws but couldn't make sure 06's gameplay was good but Sonic X Shadow Generations got good gameplay and couldn't get Mephiles character completely on point

Adding to his sea monster design, in Japanese Metal Overlord quotes a line about Leviathan from the Bible in Heroes. Metal Overlord: I am the one who looks down on all that is proud. The king of all things reigning over proud beasts.

​@@shiroutheherotraceon3313oh man that is beyond epic thank you for that piece of trivia. I'm actually planning on playing it in Japanese to see how the voices contrasts with English so that's cool to know. Metal Sonic always did have a very well-articulated vocabulary especially in this monster form 😂

What's funny is the Project 06 mod just has to finish the bosses and End of the World and it will be done.
