Time Eater travels through time and Space, of course he can travel to the future as well, Crisis City is 200 years in a parallel future of an erased timeline, that itself says that he can travel to the future, just because the story of forces and frontiers (by the time Generations was happening) never happened, doesn't mean Sunset Height and Chaos Island doesn't exist in that universe If Classic Sonic went to (including 3DS Gens) Speed Highway, Emerald Coast, City escape, Radical Highway, Seaside Hill, Water Palace, Crisis City, Spagonia, Tropical Resort and Planet Wisp... what stops Shadow from going to Sunset Heights and Chaos Island?

Theory 2 is similar to a shower thought I had at work today: What if Shadow has Chao DNA mixed in with everything else? Gerald's research is already Chao-adjacent, Shadow seems to like Chao in the comics, and Chao reincarnation would be relevant to Project Shadow's aim of immortality. I don't think Gerald knew about the Ancients, but Chaos Island means that Sage is probably available for any exposition dumping (and the Maria comparison from the Egg Logs). Chao DNA would mean that Shadow is part Ancient as well as Black Arms, which leans into the Hero/Dark dichotomy. Now consider that Shadow doesn't have the Chaos Emeralds. The Titans are equivalent in power, and they had pilots. Shadow controls Knight to take on Devil Doom. Shadow. Knight. Basically, this whole thing is the most convoluted reference to Black Knight's Lancelot without having Lancelot. (This also implies that the Titans can function as very scary Chao Mechs. Cheese, get 'em!)

A new theory I thought of is that black dooms master plan to take over the world IS Shadow himself. We see clearly that shadow is getting these doom abilities because of black doom. But why would black doom give shadow the abilities that allow him to beat him. Well we also see that shadow seems to lose his mind/control in the cutscenes of him getting these powers. What if these doom powers are like the cyber corruption and like the symbiote from spiderman, and black doom is trying to make shadow the ultimate weapon and take control over him. We see that shadow will fight the bio lizard (the first ultimate life form experiment) and now we know he fights metal overlord who isn’t really a main villain for shadow, but he is considered an ultimate life form. What if black doom is testing shadow and seeing if he can beat the other ultimate life forms throughout time and that’s why shadow states he will show he is the true ultimate life form while fighting metal in the trailer. This could also be why shadow is brought to the future at star fall islands so that he can fight The End who is another villain who considers themselves the ultimate life form. I definitely think the black doom abilities are some sort of trap considering they’re given by black doom and shadow doesn’t really seem like he wants to except them at first. Idk just thought that was an interesting overlooked detail in the plot🤷

personally i think that this could tie into all alien energy and lifeforms. chaos energy, i think, is boost energy. you get it from rings, and the boost is like microdosing super sonic, as it acts in unleashed/gens/colors. as we know, the boost in colors is from wisps hyper-go-on energy. and gives remarkably similar effects? hmm i wonder why. the black arms bear a striking resemblance to the ancients, at least in proportions and head shape. notably their eyes especially. they could be another tribe of the ancients, they clearly know a lot about the chaos emeralds. the time eater itself is alien too, being found by eggman in space after sonic colors, and with its godlike powers its not out of place next to the ancients, black arms, super sonic and shadow. because of this im hoping we get a boss fight with the mother wisp, and an asteroid coaster level. i also hope we get new sonic levels for lost world, forces, and frontiers! but thats another story

If Gerald did have research on Chaos Island, it could explain why Eggman's actions on Chaos Island. SAGE said that Chaos Island is where he left his Death Egg Robot he rode in on, and Sonic notices that Eggman has thermal energy generators on Chaos Island. That could all show that Eggman knew about Chaos Island ahead of time, and so he used it as an entry point to scavenge the rest of the islands, while also generating power for the machines he planned to build there before getting trapped in Cyberspace. Perhaps all this shows that Eggman could have referenced Gerald's research before investigating further into the Starfall Islands; heck, if Gerald did explore Chaos Island, maybe that's how Eggman found out about the Starfall Islands in the first place.

I don’t believe Sonic’s generation of past games and Shadow’s path of some levels in some Sonic games are connected to each other in terms of time when it comes to this game. Sonic generations is just a fully updated remaster, while Shadow Generations is “the” new story of the next Sonic game. To explain my theory about it, since Black Doom hasn’t been in all the other Sonic games for almost 20 years, ever since Shadow 05, maybe it’s more likely he would be entitled to re-create himself as if it, now, seems like it’s the right time for him to. Plus, Shadow is also receiving new powers created by Black Doom, unless his new powers were named after him, whether it could be a trick to misplace the word “Chaos” with that, or, it could be a resemblance of him being part of the series itself, specifically for Shadow’s own game. These powers are like the Wisps. Now when it comes to the time eater in Shadow’s side of the story, perhaps it’s causing Black Doom to reappear somehow, which means the story is going to show the same way the Sonic has gone through time, going through every past stage he’s been through to defeat his time eater, but for Shadow. Moreover, it will also seem that Shadow is gonna cross paths with Black Doom while he is chasing after “his” time eater, especially. Overall, not only black doom is gonna re-create himself, but the time eater of Shadow’s generation will bring him back, along with all the other bosses Shadow fought before.

Shadow contains the blood of black doom, so perhaps some of the locations we visit are based on memories of places doom himself visited.

His self proclaimed title of “the immortal life form” and the fact that sky troops, a stage in STH is explained to have been transported to earth by the black arms thousands of years ago in preparation for the invasion of earth all demonstrates the possibility that Doom very much had interactions with the ancients and the emeralds long ago.

My theory is Sonic Team had the assets and listened to concerns that the game might be too short. So they buffed it up. Why is Chaos Island a good pick? The most unique Frontiers setting and .... they have the Titans already. So if they want a boss fight it's right there. I'm placing an outside bet that Shadow shows up AFTER the events of Frontiers and one of the Titans (probably Supreme/The End) has clung to life and starts going berserk. So base form Shadow has to put down a wounded Titan. I will accept Super Shadow, though.

I think people are propping this up to be way more than it is, and expecting a brand new story-driven Shadow game. But it's called "Generations" for a reason. The description about Shadow facing his past and the rehashed enemies make it pretty clear it's going to be the same type of game as the original Sonic Generations: a series of older levels with a new coat of paint and a vague overarching narrative tying it together. I wouldn't even be surprised if it doesn't tie in to Sonic Generations' plot at all. The reason for Chaos Island being there is probably just because they have the assets, and it's easier to reuse them than make new ones.

Because Sonic team needs to reuse assets. Look at the Kronos island assets in kingdom valley. Look at the space port assets in the metal overlord fight (which I think happens in a crashed egg fleet).

I suggest trying to lower the music or sound you sometimes use for transitions because it's way louder than your voice. Anyways great video

Hear me out. We all know about Shadow calling infinite weak and pathetic, right? What if he actually meant it? What if he fought him before? This led me to believe that we may fight infinite in the game. I know this is unrelated from the video but i just wanted to point this out. Also, more related to the video, Gerald may have found the cyberspace portal in sky sanctuary, leading to him finding the starfall islands and starting his research on the acients.

He called him that because Infinite pre Phantom Ruby was just another Random Joe that happened to be another pawn to Eggman that Shadow had to deal with, Shadow didn't know him. Infinite on the other hand, took those insults personally and fast foward, starts wearing a mask and goes after Shadow just to prove a point

@@nossir Oh yeah, true. I do recall Shadow beating up Infinite before saying that.

Tbh it's not too far fetched to assume that we're just simply traveling to future events, in fact we literally already see this in base Gens. Two words: "Crisis City." Wether or not 06 was truly completely erased from the timeline, remember that Crisis City still technically takes place some 200 years in the FUTURE. It's only the "past" relative to Sonic and co.

For sure. I think the thing that makes crisis city “just slap it in because it’s an old level” is because Sonic has actually been there before despite its erasure from the timeline, and the fact gens was just a greatest hits collection. Given the new focus on more cohesive lore, and the fact shadow hasn’t been there, it makes me curious as to whether or not a more interesting explanation will happen.

My theory is maybe shadow arrived on chaos island way before sonic and co, since the place where the death egg robo sleeps is different than the one on frontiers chaos island. Black Doom already knows about the ancient by this time and tried to have shadow control the mechs and unlock cyber powers??? But whatever happen, it would be cool to see phantom rush sonic vs doom shadow

My theory is that Eggman also recruited Black Doom along with his past self, hence why he’s more sentient and why he and his forces can freely go to other zones.

Huh, a distraction for Shadow in order to keep him away? Extremely likely.
