A pretty popular fan theory is that Sonic is also in some way related to an alien (Chaos) so it's not as far fetched as it seems

[@RancorousSea]

Palette swapping is when you create an entirely new secondary protagonist and you give them an entirely different section of the campaign and they have different animations. Haha man they must have saved so much money on that genius move. Also Sonic isn't good enough for Shadow to be his fake, it's in the lore.
