The Sonic Theorist: Metal Sonic Is Sonic Roboticized?

Metal Sonic-the infamous metallic rival to Sonic The Hedgehog. This formidable battle-bot has dedicated his entire existence to proving that he is the superior hedgehog. The real Sonic.
But what if there's more to it than just that? What if they're truly one and the same?
I am The Sega Scourge-The Sonic Theorist. Let's find out!

Then this would cover alot of plot holes fleetway sonic wanting to destroy everything why sonic got fed up tired of his life constantly in danger. trying to save everybody being over stressed via chaos emeralds with no rings to balance him along with it. Got fed up he rather destroy everyone includeing himself instead of robotnick.takeing him out as well. Then in sonic cd the good and bad feature if he does not save the feature. Robotnic will catch him and turn him into metal makeing sonic his slave.then metal sonic haveing to put monkey writches at him self before robotnic turned him into metal. So that way metal is trying to save sonic have him defeat his own self so that wont happen to him. In reality metal is trying to save him self with out trying to interfeare with the feature.

[@joewilliams-un8vu]

Maybe it is because Metal Sonic has the same personality as Sonic and that he cares for the animals and the wildlife. However I don’t know why Metal Sonic would work with someone who wants to do the opposite. Is that why he rebelled in Sonic Heroes? Maybe after Sonic Heroes, Eggman changed his programming to make that not happen again. Eggman can do that with sentient robots as he does that with Heavy King in the Classic Sonic 30th anniversary comic. As for why Metal Sonic went back to being his usual self when Sonic arrived, Metal Sonic sees him as another fake that he has to take care of.

[@omarice3640]

This would make sense; Imagine how Eggman felt when he found out that the Bad Future Eggman managed to roboticize the Bad Future Sonic; Knowing he caught one Sonic in another timeline, that would've encouraged him to try harder to defeat Sonic, which would explain why Eggman keeps trying to make inventions to stop Sonic. He saw a possibility of him winning, so he's constantly creating these machines until he DOES eventually reach that possibility of defeating Sonic.

I just want a game entirely devoted to the story of Metal Sonic within this sort of context.

[@crimsonstormsurge]

I mean if they do enough sonic movies they will have to introduce metal sooooooooo

[@megaplays2748]

Its is possible that there are two Metal Sonics The first is the original. The robotized Sonic from a darker timeline. The second is just a robotic repleka. The second Metal Sonic would be the one in Fighters and Knuckles Chaotix since the original Metal Sonic is still trapped on Little Planet. The reason why I say that there are two Metal Sonics are because in Sonic Rivals 2, Eggman Nega creates Metal Sonic *3.0* If that Metal Sonic is supposed to be the third version, then where's the second? It could be the one from Chaotix and Fighters but was destroyed beyond repair. So Eggman found the original Metal Sonic once Little Planet returned.

By the way, when I played SADX, I was curious to see if Metal Sonic can drown too so I went to Twinkle Park and tested it, (felt kinda sorry for the little guy tho..) and was surprised to see that he actually could! Somehow I've thought that he will not share the drowning animation with Sonic. Interesting is they did not even remove the air bubbles! Yes, I'm afraid the developers were just lazy and didn't bother to remove Sonic's animations for Metal (hence why he is enjoying to take a shower in the Casino.. ^^") but I still think it's interesting, especially in relation to this fantastic theory. A robot doesn't need to breathe. But if there's a living being inside it which might still carry the fear of drowning in his mind, even after being roboticized.. it makes sense now. Anyways, I'm thrilled by your theory. :) It's well-thought and became kinda canon to me when playing Sonic games tbh. Poor Metal Sonic....

[@justcallmekai1554]

Thats mainly just in game animation they most likely didn't bother changing. I wouldn't look too hard on that detail specifically

[@Rych3rInLyf3]

Going by Archie lore, this actually makes sense. To go further, I think Sonic was not only roboticized, but also weaponized. If you look at his anatomy, he shares a similar design to Mecha Sally. They both have modified limbs with bomb and laser implants. This could explain Silvers bad future since we see a glimpse of both Metal Sonic and Mecha Sally conquering the planet. So even if the Genesis Wave didnt occur, Sonic lost in that timeline where he was roboticized and weaponized then joined Mecha Sally in their destruction.

[@seich-of-lacan-getter514]

I say hes a Sonic clone that was Roboticized

[@AHun-t]

It makes more sense if this was the real sonic robotisized after all and we know alternate universes and timelines exist in the Archie sonic universe so there’s a possibility the games are a possible universe

Maybe instead of plotting his next move. He may be secretly helping. Like, how was Rouge able to know about Sonic being alive in Sonic Forces if someone hadn't tipped her off? If we assume that Sonic was mentally tortured in Forces how is he still smiling and pulling rip off My Little Pony's? It may just be that Metal was helping the whole time. It's not a far fetched idea. He could've comforted Sonic from the shadows using a text to voice translator so that Sonic doesn't recognize him. He could have used that same tactic to talk to Rouge. If the theory is a bust, my whole "Metal helped Team Sonic in Sonic Forces" is still probable. Different motives would occur though. Like how Metal could be jealous about Infinite being 'Eggman's Greatest Creation Yet'. And when Infinite defeats Sonic on his own AND uses a copy of Metal in the progress, Metal would be hurting. So he could sneak onto the carrier that sends Sonic to space and helped from there. This is a probable theory. If anyone can debunk this than I'm all ears.

[@AHun-t]

Well really I️ cant, I️ consider myself a forced expert and since eggman was dumb enough to not kill sonic while he had the chance I️ doubt he would of noticed metal sneaking on the ship believing he was just another copy made by infinite, and considering his voice changed he could easily change his voice to make characters believe he isn’t who he really is, and it would make sense why metal wouldn’t take any proper action, in fact it could even explain how tails fixed omega he literally said he couldn’t fix him but he appeared near the end, meaning that somebody might of given him info on how to fix him, somebody who has blueprints of the E series models somebody like metal sonic, the only thing I️ can really use to disprove this is the fact we never hear the person giving info to rouges voice but that’s really the only thing I️ can come up with and it’s not even a good argument

[@idontknowwhattoputhere7017]

[@ninjanate5014]

Maybe Eggman found a way to keep Metal Sonic under his control right before Sonic escaped the Death Egg, hence why Metal was full Eggman in IDW. Of course, like the video stated, there could be an alternative timeline. Maybe IDW is part of another canon separate from the main timeline.

[@brookeheart1056]

I can imagine a really good long arc across a few games or comics where all this happens and there's a game where metal sonic is the antagonist, then at the very end it's revealed he is future sonic. Next game, after full embracing his metal sonic side, now he has to re-embrace being sonic from the future. The boss at the end is the future eggman that won and together they all defeat him, or so they think, this eggman is more devious than any other, therefore he pulls a trick and we see as everyone gasps the shadow of Sonic impaled on spikes, or dead in a less gruesome way, the its revealed that its the real sonic that has been killed, metal sonic must now redeem himself in this world as their new sonic

[@endernightthedrokain1770]

That would be a very interesting story I'd actually like to here it!

[@ShayTheSquog]

This is further enforced in Sonic Forces when Sonic asks, “Why create a clone of something that already isn’t real?” The reason he has to create a clone is because he didn’t build metal sonic. He must be Sonic roboticized.

[@The4thSnake]

Oh, here's another idea: Metal did persist after Sonic CD in Chaotix, Fighters, etc. But Sonic Generations sees Classic Sonic fighting Metal again and blowing him up. What if this fight damaged Metal enough that he can't escape Little Planet, changing the timeline so that Sonic 4 happens instead of those other games with Metal in them? Or, maybe Metal from Generations is present day Metal? So two versions of him exist in the time between CD and Generations, but Eggman has to wait at least a year to recover Generations Metal. This could also explain the two different characterisations. The Metal native to that timeline is the mindless automaton and Future Metal is the rebellious one.

The Arrowverse's time remnant concept can be applied to this theory.

Don't ask me about Sonic 06.

How did he change back? I thought when u get roboticized u get change into a robot no more fresh & blood so how did he get his body back does eggman gets evil and rip out guts and bodyparts and replace them with robot parts or it just a beam kind of thing? (sorry dont read the comics)

[@robonaught]

The process of robotization(which is impossible BTW in reality) consists of being shot by a beam that turns everything into robotics(once again makes no logical sense)no trace of any organic material left and you're a mindless slave. There is also De-Robotization which reverses the effects(this is how Sonic changed back)unfortunately if you end up say losing your original parts when you became a robot and get new parts then it doesn't work and you're doomed to be a robot forever. Yeah I really hate robotization it's just horrible, heartless, cruel and endless agony. I prefer Eggman just taking animals and sticking them inside robots to use as power cores. Comic Eggman can go get robotized himself and burn in hell!

[@hypernovaD]

Brilliant theory.. It makes so much sense that it just has to be true.. I initially thought Metal Sonic to be a clone of sonic, in the sense that at some point the original sonics mind was copied and metal was made from it.. but seeing as time travel is a factor in the sonic universe this makes more sense..

[@endernightthedrokain1770]

Even if this isn't true, SEGA should win an award for most low-key tragic character!

[@TheJadeFist]

I don't know about all that other, but the theory he's a future roboticized Sonic does actually make alot of sense. Though It comes off at least with future media and games that he was different from other robots because he could learn and adapt, was designed around Sonic but was programmed with a brain/bio scan of sorts (if we go off the Sonic OVA as being a source). In Heroes and in Shadow, we could see other biological creations the Dr was able to create, so Metal Sonic could be some sort of cyborg leaning more towards the mechanical side of things with some biological components. I suppose if you're able to turn living creatures into machines, you would have to a very advanced understanding of biology as well as the mechanical engineering.

[@reisetsunai]

The thing is, if sonic failed to stop eggman and died. How would he die? It makes no sense. If metal sonic already existed and sonic got beaten by him and became metal sonic. It makes no sense

[@angelakent2127]

Rei Mephiles, true

[@mightybardin5965]

Simple. Dr. Eggman had a better plan that nearly did work and ultimately beat sonic. The doctor decided it was too close a shave and would believe that his new robot would be more useful in the past. He was still realativly new at time travel and simply sent holograms that contained the life data of robotizied sonic into the far past that His past self would find thus never actually cone up with his original plan to stop sonic. So here’s where I believe it’s a different story. The past never actually caught sonic but the original timeline did and actually managed to get all of his info so the metal sonic we know is actually a full robot but the original timeline is a much darker story for sonic as he ultimately failed, but I believe that Eggman still doesn’t win as one particular thing about sonic Cd is that you can play as tails. Tails realizing something is wrong and goes through the same stuff as sonic did but this time the future Eggman’s plans mirror the the events that we see in sonic’s play through. Tails manages to scrape by and defeat his former ally in the race and stop Eggman. But Time has already been affected by messing with the timeline eggman basically created the flashpoint paradox that we now know as the official timeline.

[@White_Recluse]

>non linear time lines >Eggman is able to defeat Sonic and roboticizes him >Metal Sonic is born Boom, you got yourself the Bad Future

[@randomperson-qh1oi]

Dr. Eggman used the time stones to create a time paradox in the Bad Future.

[@AHun-t]

Well it’s quite simple, the timeline starts with eggman killing sonic and turning sonic into metal sonic, how he killed him is simple he used the laser on his machine since there was no metal sonic to race, and what happened next is because of metal sonic being in the past but losing to sonic the first time the timelines are split up now there is 2 one where sonic lost and became metal sonic the one metal originated from and the one where sonic beats eggman which is the main timeline

[@omaralfar1666]

1:23 At one point it’s “way past cool!” but on the other it’s “that’s no good!”

[@ultimateknux2402]

Fitting the other Games Metal Sonic has appeared in in the timeline is possible. Dr. Robotnik had lost the original version of Metal Sonic, so he attempted build another using the knowledge he gained from the first version of Metal Sonic. Robotnik almost succeeded in Knuckles Chaotix, but he failed their too. So Robotnik decided to go back and find his original version as time wen't by which is why he comes back as a "Modern" character in Sonic 4 Episode 2. In the past Metal Sonic has clearly died and him having the same knowledge past down from version to version doesn't make sense, unless you trying to say the Metal Sonic has memory chip which also doesn't make sense because if he did, he would have the ability to talk and use attacks from the past. Anyways, that was my thought and I think it makes sense time wise.

[@WaterKirby1994]

Yeah if you consider Metal Sonic a roboticized clone of Sonic, then what you're saying is actually likely.

[@hemitronexplosives5085]

Hejdj

[@ultimateknux2402]

looking back this comment was really stupid

[@burnum]

One of the few things that really backs this up is the second cartoon where his uncle gets roboticized. The only problem is that Chuck had no control over his own actions no matter what he tried to do. While it is true that Metal got a different gem/jewel and gain free will, Sonic 4 was not completed and was disregarded once Mania was released, making it a questionable thing in terms of it being part of the timeline or just part of it's own separate & small universe.

[@valery8692]

So if sonic is roboticized and remember sonic CD when sonic first met metal (like the video said) then if metal is sonic that means it would be the last sonic game the game before sonic CD might of had a story that sonic failed and at that time he became metal sonic and the past sonic came...to save the world so that does mean that metal is the real hedgehog (like the video said)

[@TheUnknownAK]

I like this theory a lot, it would make a massive amount of sense. However there are other ways of explaining some of the things you brought up, for example the magical sphere he absorbed seems to be the thing that gave him a personality and free will which lets him ignore Eggman. The reason for this might be that the magical sphere granted him a soul which would allow him to control the Chaos Emeralds as well as giving him his new personality/free will. I would really love for it to be canon that he is a robotized Sonic from another timeline, maybe one day we might see this proven in a game. I would really like to see him in Project Sonic 2017

This is still my favorite video of yours, even more than 3 years after I first watched this, and the rest of your theory related content in that time. Even if it’s not canon/been debunked, I love this theory so much simply because I think the concept is vastly more interesting. It not only gives Metal’s character more depth and complexity, but it allows me to appreciate him more as a character, see him in a whole new light, if you will. I see him now as more than another of Eggman’s robots, but rather, a trapped, tortured soul, forced to watch as… well, I think you put it best in the video, so no need to reiterate anything there. I never played any of the games that feature this “progression” of Metal Sonic, if you will, as he goes through these stages of accepting himself for who he is, so I never gave much thought to him, other than “oh, right, Metal Sonic is a thing” whenever he would turn up. And for that, Scourge, I thank you. Keep doing what you’re doing, your latest “What If?” videos are quite fun to watch and think about, but you do you m8, whatever it is you decide to speculate about next, I’ll be looking forward to it.

Awesome theory. Raised a lot of points I had never considered before. However, the one hole I do find myself stuck in is that Mecha Sonic in Sonic 3&K uses the chaos energy from the master emerald to transform into Super Mecha Sonic. As we know he isn't Metal Sonic and is purely mechanical, doesn't that mean beings of non-organic origin can harness chaos energy?

[@thesegascourge]

My answer to all those never-ending "Mecha Sonic" comments, here you go: x'D 1.) Mecha Sonic's transformation does not qualify as a "super form", it requires no rings, he drops the form every 10 - 15 seconds and requires recharging, something more akin to a battery, and moreover; Knuckles SURVIVED against it. Highly unlikely if it was truly "super". 2.) The Master Emerald can NOT incite super-transformation in the game-canon. Period. 3.) Mecha Sonic has since appeared side-by-side Silver Sonic & Metal Sonic in the Lego Dimensions Sonic expansion-pack, and during the entirety of his appearance in that game, he does NOT "transform". It was one of the most memorable things in S3&K and it was purposefully left out of Lego Dimensions.. Leading me to believe that Sega consider his "transformation" about as non-canon as Hyper Sonic. lmao 4.) This is a nitpick but.. this so-called "Super Mecha Sonic" isn't even tinted yellow/gold tbh, ya know like most super forms?.. idk why people think it is. It's more orange and red - like superheated metal. That is all.

[@TheRezro]

Personally don't think that is the case. Robotization wasn't ever a thing outside American timeline what is not canon and modern games even joke about it several times. Only one who could do something like that would be Eggman Nega but he never was really same as Julian Robotnik from Sat Am. For my final prove that is not the case is Uncle Chuck from Sat Am who still look mostly like Hedgehog so far from Metal Sonic design, and there is no reason why Robotized Sonic would look particularly different. For my Mecha Sonic is clearly a Gizoid (it is clearly too advanced for its times) altered to poses Sonic skills. There was some proces of skaning Sonic used, but he clearly is not really a Sonic himself. Oh yes.. and there is also completely separate Metal Sonic 3.0 from Rivals 2, created by by Eggman Nega so.. here is most likely the source (that he wasn't Eggman creation is fact confirmed in Sonic 4 so that also is not point of debate).

my thoughts: there are ways a robotiscized being can become organic again. there are more metal sonics. there is silver sonic and captain metal. I think the reason eggman (or robotnik for you nostolgia folks) does not apply the same tech to his other badniks is as simple as quantity over qaulity. he has more time to build an army of subpar robots then build multiple metal sonics. plus metal has advanced a.i to a point he can break free of eggmans control so maybe eggman does not want to repeat that mistake

Honestly, this theory's really good, and way better than I expected. Also I just realizedsomething. In Sonic Forces, Sonic asks why Eggman made copies of Metal Sonic instead of just making more, but this theory explains that. If this theory is true, he can't make more, cause Metal is one of a kind. And since the Metal Sonic's we see in Sonic Forces are fakes, that means Metal is still missing. I hope we get to see him again soon, cause he is my favorite character and all. Still not sure if I subscribe to this theory or not though. There are other ways of explaining away Metal Sonic. As we see in the Sonic the Hedgehog OVA, Metal Sonic was created by copying Sonic's own mind into a machine, and maybe that was because Sonic's mind is the only thing that's able to process the high speeds that Metal Sonic's external hardware is capable of achieving, and the reason he doesn't use the same technology in other Badniks is because their processors just can't keep up, or something alon those lines. Still a really cool theory, and it makes sense and doesn't have any major holes.

9:29 I don't think Sonic was trying to use the emeralds judging by what his hand is doing XD

There was one more thing that was mentioned about metal sonic. In the sonic movie, metal sonic's final words before he was about to be consumed by lava were " there is only one sonic".

Suppose Metal broke free from Eggman’s control at the end of Sonic CD and used the Time Stones to return to the Bad Future timeline. Would he accept his Robian body or would he, possibly with help from his timeline’s Tails, figure out a way to use the Time Stones to rewind his body’s entropic state to how it was prior to his roboticization?

Sonic: *Gets roboticized* Claus: "First time?"

[@zcgamerandreacts2762]

9:07 "Can't only living organisms harness the power of the emeralds?" MECHA SONIC

Dill Pickle What if all sonic robots are sonic from the future that would make sense
