WHAT IF SONIC LOST HIS MEMORY? PART 1 | Sonic: What If?

In the finale of Sonic Adventure 2, Shadow The Hedgehog selflessly sacrificed himself in order to save Earth from the ARK's impact. An amnesiac Shadow returned in Sonic Heroes-whereby he attempted to piece together the fragments of his past.
But what if the same set of circumstances had happened to Sonic instead? What if Sonic fell in Shadow's place? How would he fare with no memory of his friends, his adventures, and his legendary status?

#Sonic #Memory #WhatIf

[@thesegascourge]

Disclaimer: "What If Sonic Lost His Memory?" was written and created before Mar 2022. Accordingly, the story of this What-If was tailored to operate around the foregone "Two Worlds" canon. 🌏🌏 Just think "Sonic X canon" if it makes it more digestible. *That said, a retcon may be introduced later to accommodate-- retrofitting the events of this What-If to transpire on Earth solely. (Details TBD)*

[@Hypershadic23]

Ik this was made like WAY before the latest Sonic Twitter Takeover but I just thought I'd mention that in the latest one Shadow says the reason Sonic didn't/couldn't save him was because he waved Sonic away, knowing that if Sonic went after him they'd both lose their super forms and perish. You probably already knew that but just something I thought I'd mention.

I guess the closet explanation we got towards Shadow falling instead of Sonic was confirmed in the Japanese sub (some of the dialogue hinting towards the main reason of Shadow's fall is highlighted during the final boss against the Biolizard.) In which it's explained that it was Shadow's first time transforming into his super form so he felt weaker and couldn't hold the form for as long as Sonic could. Hence he fell to Earth.

[@Sungura_Kaiser]

I always thought it was because he allowed himself to fall. Shadow does say "I must destroy all the evil the professor has created.", which included himself prior to his heel realization.

The idea of Sonic being rescued by one of Eggman's robots is actually somewhat canon for Shadow in his game. If you spend 10 minutes fighting the true final boss of the game, Eggman confesses that he lied to Shadow about being a robot; when everyone thought Shadow died, Eggman rescued him thanks to one of his robots.

The Sega Scourge Honestly this is really Awesome! There was a fanfic with this idea but Amy Rose for What ever reason became a Edgy punk & I didn’t like that, So seeing your version of Amy in this makes more sense, The only thing I’m wondering is what’s gonna happened when the Black Arms Invade? With Shadow Already knows who he is, he will not be manipulated by Black Doom, I’m really Invested into the story to see where it goes, I am Surprise to see Silver this Early on in the series, I’m curious to know what’s gonna happened next!

Don't forget this would have been the most ballest move ever. Killing the main character and beloved aswell.

[@noahwhite7268]

Maybe in the future Sonic is the villain, having been manipulated by Black Doom to lead the Black Arms into battle and conquer the world

[@LilithLonelyHeart]

Honestly wasn't expecting to feel that mixed on this what-if scenario as I'm now, as much as I would like to see a different take on Sonics personality, I was expecting it to be more of him re-learning or getting back his memories about his various powers, and maybe without his imprisonment by Eggman and rather him accidentally falling into Eggman's custody as he forgot he was in constant conflict with him, and yeah then things can go on like in HeroesAlso not exactly biggest fan of how harsh things go, with Knuckles towards Shadow, and also later with Sonic towards his friends when he lost his memory like ok Knuckles is emotional nad could jump on Shadow like that but probably over time he would at least accept that Shadow tried his best to save Sonic by cost of his life and just don't be this harsh all the time and Sonic, even if he lost his memory, doubt he would attack anyone because of not knowing them, and if he started to have flashbacks of his past maybe he would even try to get more info out of his friend about it by talking rather than attacking them also memory recalls being painfull... Nah, maybe would distract and confuse him but pin sounds like a bit too much, anyways waiting for part two but so far this feels a bit overdone at points I mentioned

Plus, how come he suddenly considered shadow as a mere obstacle and targeted SONIC when he was humiliated by SHADOW? It doesn't make sense! If he was in control, Shadow would be his main target, THEN Sonic! Plus, even if he DID attack Shadow, he didn't do anything major. Trust me, judging by infinite's personality and his reaction to his beating, he would've tried to either terminate Shadow or completely break him if he was still the one in control.

I want to see shadow, while staying himself more or less, connect with characters that he typically wouldn’t have in the main timeline. Shadow is my favorite character in the franchise, and I think your doing him a great justice here. I like how you are making not only about shadow, but sonic as well. I want to see how this scenario changes the dynamic of sonic and Amy, if at all. One thing I wish you touched on was shadow and Amy’s friendship. It was Amy that helped shadow see the error of his ways on the ark in the final moments. I’d love to see a friendship spark between the two. Ain’t gotta be anything serious (although i am a shadamy shipper lol) I just feel like there is untapped potential there in the form of a strong friendship.

The issue I have with Heroes taking place in Sonic’s world is that the only way the two worlds thing works in continuity is if it’s a Sonic X like scenario where they are stuck, otherwise why are they just chilling on this alien planet? But that’s a nitpick, love the series! Always preferred Shadow so it’s cool in this that he gets to have the spotlight, and in this case the amnesia plot actually makes Sonic more interesting.

[@JVCYTc]

This one of my favorite theories by far along with the werehog theory. I also think that silver arrived earlier then suppose to because the events of 06 could be altered with Sonic being the actual Iblis trigger being tricked by eggman, forcing him to relentlessly attack Elise and his friends. And/or gets tricked by Mepholis to have the intent of killing all of those je crosses path with, helping mepholis plan to destroy all before completely remembering who he is, bursting into fleetway or dark super sonic to right his wrong. Ending the 06 story in kind of the same fashion it did before but this time, sonic is more aware of hos surroundings, losing the iconic trust he usually puts into everyone, being more distant and trapped in the reality of realizing that he wasn't the same blue hopeful hedgehog he was before. He then begins to seemingly disappear from the planet an outcast, hoping to redeem himself to not only himself but his forgot friends too. Sonic now runs into battle with a neutral energy, thinking ahead before he rushes into battle. The same egotistical hedgehog we all know and love is now gone forever. All that remains is sonic, the blue forgotten hedgehog, the hero lost within the wind.

[@shard7549]

JVC YTc actually I think it has nothing to do with what Sonic does differently but what he could do the same and Mephilis doesn't want that. You see I think that Sonic might've gotten his memories back at that point but Mephilis sees Sonic as more of a threat if that happened so he sent Silver further back to stop that from happening to give him an advantage.

What if sonic never escapes, his friends written him off as dead, and seeing him replaced with the avatar character, becomes Fleetway super sonic? Leading to a bait and switch antagonist like sonic games are known for

[@SuperZombieBros]

I’m loving this new Sonic What if Series. When I was younger, I would frequently think about stuff like this and try come up with a bunch of different alternate timelines. Now finally seeing someone more professional doing it makes me really excited everytime I see an upload of this series. I’m looking forward to whatever you do next with it.

Now this story is something I’d love to read in comic form!

Atleast Sonic 06 didn't pander to nostalgia with classic sonic. And come on, Sonic Boom was a lot worse.

Interesting What If, I like how you never let Sonic get his Memories back right away since amnesia takes a while to recover depending on how much damage to the head is, and since he fell down from space to Earth, it will take a long while. And I am guessing Silver will probably doing something either good or stupid to change the future.

[@edwheezer6231]

"Doing something either good or stupid to change the future" basically describes Silver's entire existence. Well said, my good sir. XD

Sonic Androids.... even though Omega states that they're clones.

[@thesegascourge]

Actually, he only states that in the dub! In Japanese, he says "In order to create copies.. existence of the original is required."

[@JayboCorp.2014]

@@thesegascourge: It's basically the same as in English then ''The original must exist somewhere.'' I was referring to ''You know about cloning...'' thanks for replying man! I'm also confused that in Heroes they look exactly like Shadow but in Shadow they look exactly like robots.

[@___8241]

This what if is Honestly my favorite one now. It's such a dark/very intriguing idea to think of.

[@sapphirephoenix26]

This is fantastic! This is one of the most wonderful and interesting yet saddest Demensions I could witness. Please continue with the story, I absolutely love it!!!

[@mikeanthony3300]

I think Sonic would be fine. After what happened in Heroes and Shadow's own game, I'm pretty sure people like Tails and Knuckles would more than likely help Sonic remember who he is. Unlike with Shadow where literally no one (not even Sonic himself) would offer to help get his memory back. Instead, simply send Shadow on various fetch quest that in no way help regain his memory.

[@upsyloownmusic]

It's been a LONG ASS TIME since I haven't been *this* invested in a story This is my favorite What If so far, keep it up !!

[@omeganappie]

Wow, you fixed nearly every problem I had with Heroes's story, characters and continuity. One change I would make though: I'd have the amnesia plot end once Sonic sees all of his friends gathered in one place and reaffirms who he is during the battle with Metal Sonic. Also not a huge fan of ending Heroes with a cliffhanger, since it would probably be better to have it be its own adventure. I'm excited to see how you handle the events of Shadow the Hedgehog! (And 06 too, apparently?)

[@Speendlex]

I don't often leave comments on YT in general, but these videos of yours are certainly a food for thought for me when it comes to imagining different scenarios, and I like that!

[@cobaltfox3193]

I know this is at least 2 years late, but this has happened at least once in the comics. As in, the Sonic losing his memory part, nothing else.

[@nemesisstars1527]

Story does make sense with sonic loosing his memory even though it’s also sad, looking forward for part 2

[@Gianluca_YouTube]

This is GREAT! :D I wanna hear more!! Its like a good fanfic! 10/10

[@sonicverse6147]

That was SO good can't wait for part 2

[@Solesteam]

If eggman were to instantly finish him off, he killed the opportunity to make another metal Sonic far superior than the original (Or of were going with your theory about metal Sonic, just another metal Sonic that maybe is a bit taller)

[@slateoffate9812]

Rewatching this, I do have a few questions. Why was Silver's future devasted, with androids indiscriminately destroying everyone in sight, when in this au they're under Eggman's command? Do they go rogue like Metal did? What would've events looked like without Silver's interference?

[@jaredtherock5692]

It's interesting how in Sonic Heroes, without this theory in mind, how interchangeably Shadow and Sonic's roles are. Shadow's line "it'll be a date to die for" exchange makes more sense to me if the roles are reversed. Sonic Android's, make much more sense, and gives an interesting role for Metal Sonic as well.

[@jamesbailey777]

This is really good actually and it would have a much better way for shadow to stay in the franchise as opposed to the way they actually did keep him in it and it would have been a great way to show a different side to sonic before eventually becoming his normal self again and then could turn to shadow to thank him for being there when he wasn't. I think this would actually have been a very good idea. What if they did an alternate SA2 and sonic heroes game I actually would buy it with absolutely no hesitation

[@criminalscum6302]

Wow this is really dark but this would explain a few things. Not to mention making the adventure story line more interesting.
