History

Sonic Adventure 2

Shadow debuted in the game Sonic Adventure 2. Dr. Eggman had set Shadow free from G.U.N. base, and in exchange he agreed to aid the Doctor in his plans. After witnessing Shadow's abilities when he defeated the G.U.N. defense robot HotShot, Dr. Eggman went nuts and his plans then went swiftly turned to the goal of world domination! Shadow informed him that the only way to achieve this goal would be with the ultimate weapon, The Eclipse Cannon. It was a giant laser cannon aboard the Space Colony A.R.K., that could decimate entire planets with a single blast. However, to function it would require all seven Chaos Emeralds.

Eventually, Rouge joined with Shadow and Dr. Eggman to help them acquire the Chaos Emeralds (although her true motive was to determine if Shadow was in fact the "ultimate life form"), but became trapped. Soon after Shadow heard of this, he began to think of Maria and immediately set off to rescue her. After saving Rouge's life, together they used six of the Chaos Emeralds, thus providing enough power to destroy half the moon. This action set Sonic and Co. on a mission to stop them from furthuring their goals. They forced their way onto the Ark and attempted to stop Shadow, Eggman and Rouge.

At one point Rouge went to the control room of the Ark where the Chaos Emeralds were held and announced out loud (to no one in particular) that they were hers. Unfortunately for her, Shadow had just walked in the room, and told her he thought otherwise. A brief argument led to Rouge's declaration that she had found the official report of "Project Shadow", and that the picture of the real ultimate life form showed not Shadow the Hedgehog, but a giant lizard called the Biolizard. When Shadow asserted that he was the true ultimate life form, she called into question the authenticity of his memories.

It was at that moment that Dr. Eggman notified Shadow that someone had triggered the alarm, so Shadow set off to stop the intruder. The disturbance was discovered to be Sonic, whom he then clashed with. Later, Dr. Eggman was able to steal the last Chaos Emerald and placed it in the cannon, fully powering it. However, instead of firing at its full strength, Dr. Eggman inadvertently activated a program his grandfather had left in the A.R.K.'s computer. The A.R.K. moved the Chaos Emeralds into its core and set itself on a collision course with the planet. Now that all seven Chaos Emeralds were powering it, the A.R.K. contained enough power to shatter the planet.

While everyone rushed to stop this from happening, Amy Rose stumbled across Shadow, who was staring out at space. She begged him to help stop the planet's destruction but he refused, insisting that nothing could be done, and that he wanted this to happen. However, her continued pleas set off a suppressed memory of Maria's final request before her sacrifice, "Give them (the people of Earth) a chance to be happy." This thought moved Shadow, and he quickly went to assist Sonic and Knuckles.

He reached the A.R.K.'s core to find Sonic and Knuckles approaching the prototype of the "Ultimate Lifeform", the Biolizard (as this prototype was the giant lizard in the report Rouge found, her accusations that Shadow was a fake were effectively nulled). Shadow urged the two to focus on the Chaos Emeralds while he fought with the Biolizard. After Shadow defeated the Biolizard, Sonic and Knuckles managed to stop the Emeralds. The massive lizard then noticed what they were doing, so it then merged itself with the A.R.K. to become The FinalHazard and keep the A.R.K. on collision course.

In light of this, Sonic and Shadow used the power of the Chaos Emeralds to transform into Super Sonic and Super Shadow. Together they destroyed FinalHazard and Super Shadow and Super Sonic used Chaos Control to prevent the free-falling A.R.K. from destroying the planet. But in doing so, Shadow fell to Earth. Eggman managed to save Shadow with one of his robots. The fall almost completely wiped his memory.

Sonic Heroes

Shadow as seen in Sonic Heroes

In the game Sonic Heroes, Rouge discovered Shadow in a stasis tube located in the deepest part of one of Dr. Eggman's bases. It was soon revealed that Shadow had amnesia and could not remember anything before his release from the stasis tube, except for brief images of Maria's death. He then joined forces with Rouge and the robot E-123 Omega to form Team Dark (as their speed member) and find Dr. Eggman.

Soon after hearing Dr. Eggman proclaimed that he "has no past to remember", Shadow discovered a half-destroyed Shadow robot and realized that he too might just be a robot. Later, Team Dark defeated the Eggman's Airfleet and discovered that the person they had been chasing was a fake. For as the team ran to continue the mission, Metal Sonic, of whom had been hiding under the guise of Dr. Eggman the entire time, claimed that he had successfully copied the Ultimate Lifeform data (Shadow's D.N.A.). As Shadow continued his mission, he stated that "even if I'm not real, I'm still the Ultimate Lifeform, Shadow the Hedgehog!"

Afterwards, Rouge stumbled upon a room filled with hundreds of Shadow Androids. As Omega arrived to destroy the room and everything in it, Rouge affirmed her belief that their Shadow was a robot(In the japanese version, Rouge says that their shadow is an artificial being,since he WAS created by humans). However, Omega reassured her that the original Shadow had to exist somewhere in order for Eggman to make copies. Rouge decided to stay with Shadow while Omega destroyed the Androids inside the fortress. Rouge held a conversation with Shadow about going after the Master Emerald, to which he smirked and replied that some things never change. Later, when Metal Sonic transformed into Metal Madness, Shadow worked with Rouge, Omega, and the other teams to distract him long enough for Sonic to power up into his Super Form.

At the end of the game, Shadow was last seen with Omega with the defeated Metal Sonic.

Shadow the Hedgehog (game)

In Shadow the Hedgehog, Shadow is first seen standing outside of the city Westopolis, reminiscing the only memory he has, that of Maria's death. He sees a red cloud appear, and the Black Arms fall from it into the city. Shadow dismisses it, but then a mysterious figure appeared before him. The figure orders him to bring him the seven Chaos Emeralds "as promised", and soon vanishes. Shadow sets out to find them, but gets caught up in a conflict between various foes and allies: the G.U.N. army, the alien race known as the Black Arms, Dr. Eggman, and the rest of the Sonic cast.

Due to the style of the game, there are 10 different endings, some showing scenarios such as Shadow's false belief that he is a Shadow Android created by Dr. Eggman, three showing him killing Eggman (at least, it shows him raising his hand, his hand moving quickly torwards Eggman's face, then the screen goes black with Eggman saying "Nooooooo..."), defeating Sonic and the GUN Commander, and some showing him defeating Black Doom. However, the "Final" ending ties together all the endings to reveal the truth about Shadow's mysterious past.

It is revealed that Shadow's creator Professor Gerald Robotnik, was, as Black Doom puts it, "in development of the ultimate life force", i.e. immortality. However, he had trouble with his experiments. In order to achieve his goals, he contacted the Black Comet, home to Black Doom and the Black Arms. He made a deal with Black Doom; If Black Doom helped Gerald with his research, he would deliver the seven Chaos Emeralds. Using Black Doom's DNA, they created Shadow the Hedgehog, who would aid in Professor Gerald's experiments and help Black Doom get the Emeralds. However, shortly after Shadow's completion, Gerald discovered that Black Doom wanted the Emeralds in order to take over Earth, using all living creatures as incubators for the Black Arms larvae and for energy sources. This is why Professor Gerald created the Eclipse Cannon: with the intention of destroying the Black Comet, and he depended on Shadow to execute this plan.

Later, Shadow gathered all seven Chaos Emeralds and Black Doom appears demanding for them. Then, Sonic, his friends, and Dr. Eggman appear and tell Shadow not to give them away. However, Black Doom uses a paralyzing gas on Shadow and the others, to freeze them in place. Sending larvae to devour them, he then used the Chaos Emeralds to perform a Chaos Control, teleporting the Black Comet to Earth and merging it with the Earth. Just as he does so, Shadow breaks free and pursues Black Doom.

Upon catching up to Black Doom, Shadow confronts him for the emeralds, but he forces Shadow down with his mind-control, revealing that Shadow was created from Black Doom's blood. Afterwards, the Chaotix manage to hack into the ARK's database, and the Professor appears on a screen behind Black Doom. He then tells Shadow of his past through a recording.

Shadow finds the strength to struggle to his feet, and as he attempts to attack, Black Doom disappears and changes into Devil Doom. Using the Chaos Emeralds, Shadow transforms into Super Shadow and battles with Devil Doom. During this battle, Dr. Eggman informs Shadow that he is in fact the original Shadow, rescued after the battle at the A.R.K. by one of Eggman's robots. Eventually, Shadow defeated him and Devil Doom fell to Earth. To finally rid the world of the Black Arms and do away with his past, Shadow used Chaos Control to teleport the Black Comet in front of the Eclipse Cannon, then went in the ARK, fired the Eclipse Cannon at full power and destroyed the Black Comet along with all of the Black Arms inside of it.

Shadow was last seen aboard the ARK, looking out the window and holding an old greyscale photo of the Professor and Maria, whispering "Goodbye forever, Shadow the Hedgehog..." He then drops the old photo as he makes his way out of the room. It should be noted though that in the original Japanese version, Shadow mutters "Sayonara, Shadow the Hedgehog". These were Maria's last words to Shadow before he was ejected from the ARK, and Sonic's last words in Sonic Adventure 2 as he leaves the ARK after Shadow's supposed death.

Sonic Battle

Sonic Battle was released before Sonic Heroes, but was set after it. Rouge saves Shadow's life while they are investigating Dr. Eggman's secret base and takes him back to her home.

In Sonic Battle, Shadow appears to have mysteriously regained his memories, and can use his Chaos powers without a Chaos Emerald, meaning that this game may well be set after Shadow the Hedgehog. Although he does not go into detail, he talks about how the people of Earth must destroy him (and Emerl) if they ever want peace, still believing that he is a weapon. However it is revealed that he has the heart and soul of Professor Gerald Robotnik's granddaughter Maria ultimately, meaning he cannot be evil, as Maria was a good person. However, Gerald's explanation in his diary for creating Shadow contradicts the explanation given in Sonic Adventure 2 and Shadow The Hedgehog.

In one of the Professor's journal entries, it mentions that "Project: Shadow" was put on hold because of Project: Gizoid, and that Shadow was completed approximately a week before the ARK was attacked.

Sega Superstars

Shadow appears an an unlockable character in this game for the PlayStation 2's Eye Toy. Upon collecting the Chaos Emeralds, he can transform into Super Shadow.

Sonic Riders

Shadow is an unlockable character in the game Sonic Riders. He is unlocked by beating the Hero Story and acts as a speed character, similar to Sonic the Hedgehog and uses Chaos Control to attack his opponents.

Shadow's default racing gear is his skates, a variation of his Air Shoes, which are called "Darkness". He can also use boards and bikes, and other characters can use his skates. Shadow plays no part in the story, and only appears as an unlockable character.

Sonic the Hedgehog (2006 game)

Shadow appears in promotional art for the next-generation Sonic title Sonic the Hedgehog, and is slated to appear as a playable character alongside Sonic and the mysterious new hedgehog, Silver. One of the trailers shows him driving a military vehicle equipped with missiles. But recent screenshots confirm that he can indeed run without vehicles, he was also seen using what looked like Chaos Spear and Chaos Blast. In addition he is seen fighting a mysterious hedgehog named Mephiles, surrounded by numerous small black creatures. Mephiles is said to have a crucial part in the game story, but it is unknown what the black creatures are. According to the japanese website, Shadow's story is that the federal government asks him to save Rouge (what she is to be saved from is not stated), when he runs into Mephiles and is sent to the future.

Sonic Rivals

Shadow is scheduled to appear alongside Sonic, Knuckles, and Silver in Sonic Rivals as a playable character.

Summoned to a strange land by Dr. Eggman via a cryptic transmission asking for his aid, Shadow encounters something strange and now it’s a race to find Eggman to uncover the truth.

Personality

Shadow is a lone wolf who distances himself from Sonic and his friends. He doesn't talk much, but he never bluffs; if he makes a threat, he has every intention of carrying it out. As shown in Shadow the Hedgehog, he has a distinct killer instinct. Shadow is willing to do whatever it takes to get what what he wants, and when he's determined, he is literally unstoppable. Dark and destructive, he is the most violent character in the series, willing to destroy anyone or anything that gets in his way, and has a tendency to treat others in a very callous manner.

At times, Shadow has been shown to be somewhat insecure, since he was constantly haunted by flashbacks and memories of his close friend, Maria. However, after solving the mystery of his past, he chose to leave all thoughts of his past and Maria's death behind him. Whether this means that he wants to forget everything and start over or simply stop letting the past control him anymore is up to debate.

In the cartoon Sonic X, Shadow is less aggressive, but he is still very violent. For example, Shadow attempted to kill Cosmo for being a Metarex spy, even though she was an unwilling one. Tails then tried to protect Cosmo, which resulted in Shadow giving him a severe beating. He then told Tails to stop protecting Cosmo because he did not wish to kill them both. Yet upon cornering Cosmo, Shadow told her to close her eyes, saying it was better that she die without knowing what she was (that being an instrument of Metarex to spy on the heroes). The English dub of the cartoon series tones down Shadow's attitude to make the show acceptable for younger viewers.

In the Sonic the Hedgehog comic books, Shadow was once depicted as being very aggressive and violent towards others, and would destroy anyone who got in the way of his objectives. Over time however, Shadow seems to have lost some of his aggressiveness and has actually become more gentle.

Relationships

Maria, as she appears in the game Shadow the Hedgehog.

Shadow had been created by Professor Gerald Robotnik,[1] Dr. Eggman's grandfather, with the use of Black Doom's DNA. In theory, this means that Black Doom is Shadow's biological father. Soon after being created Shadow became good friends with the Professor's granddaughter, Maria, and treated her like his sister. However, Maria sacrificed herself to save Shadow from the Space Colony A.R.K. during a military siege of the station. After her death, Maria's sacrifice continuously haunted Shadow, until he finally decided to let go of his past at the end of Shadow the Hedgehog. Maria is generally referenced in most games Shadow has appeared in, with the exception of Sonic Heroes, due to Shadow's amnesia, and Sonic Riders, since Shadow didn't have a place in the main story.

Shadow's approach to Dr. Eggman is quite different to that of other characters. His relation to the Doctor is neither that of a staunch enemy nor ally, choosing instead to form alliances with or against him depending on the circumstances. Although Shadow appears to show little regard for whether Dr. Eggman's schemes succeed or not, clashes do occur when he gets in his way. Yet despite this, they display a certain amount of respect for each other's abilities. Shadow demonstrates this by calling the would-be world conqueror by his title "the Doctor", as opposed to his nickname Eggman. Almost in return, the Doctor had once referred to Shadow's abilities as "spectacular".

One of Shadow's main rivals and adversaries is none other than Sonic the Hedgehog. When the two first meet in Sonic Adventure 2, they immediately become enemies, but over time their relationship develops into a strong rivalry. They frequently fight for different reasons, and Shadow finds Sonic to be very irritating. Under extreme circumstances, the two hedgehogs will work together for a common goal, but only if it absolutely requires teamwork. One example of this, is when Shadow and Sonic combat the Finalhazard at the end of Sonic Adventure 2.

Shadow also has a close connection to Rouge. He saves her life in Sonic Adventure 2, at the Security Hall when she is locked inside a safe while stealing three of the Chaos Emeralds from G.U.N., (to power the Doctor's Eclipse Cannon) although he claimed that he was only concerned about the Chaos Emerald Rouge had stolen. However, if being as seemingly brutal as he was in Shadow the Hedgehog, he could have simply taken the jewels and left her, though he and Eggman would have to find the remaining ones on their own. This could be another sign of concern for her. At the end of Sonic Adventure 2 Rouge receives Shadow's lost wristband, and she holds it close, as if to treasure it while looking out of the ARK's window, down at the planet Earth. In Sonic Heroes, she in turn releases him from a capsule inside Dr. "Eggman's" base while looking for treasure and he saved her from being shot by E-123 Omega, who was later stopped by Rouge from attacking Shadow. In Sonic Battle, Rouge saves him from a Guard Robo and takes him to her place, letting him stay there during his coma. Shadow calls her an "ally", possibly his way of calling her a friend.

E-123 Omega is an ally of Shadow. After starting off as enemies, he and Omega became friends and helped each other in battle. During Sonic Heroes, Shadow, Omega, and Rouge worked together as a team, forming Team Dark, and in Shadow the Hedgehog, Omega helped Shadow to find and confront Dr. Eggman in the Iron Jungle and Lava Shelter levels, plus the Iron Jungle Egg Breaker boss, and the Lava Shelter Egg Dealer final bosses.

Finally, Shadow also has an association with Amy Rose. Near the end of Sonic Adventure 2, Amy encounters him in one of the A.R.K.'s rooms and begs him to help the others save the planet. At first Shadow refuses, insisting that nothing can be done. She continues to plead, and her pleadings trigger a suppressed memory of the last moments of Maria's life, wherein Maria begs Shadow to make the people of Earth happy, causing him to change his mind. Shadow can also choose to assist her in searching for Cream the Rabbit and her pet Chao, Cheese during the Cryptic Castle level of Shadow the Hedgehog.

Abilities

Shadow possesses the same speed as Sonic (760 mph), as well as all of his abilities. Shadow also has super strength, though it is probably not as great as Knuckles'. His strength is demonstrated frequently in Shadow the Hedgehog.

Shadow's trademark move is Chaos Control, which allows him to warp time and space. Shadow uses it mainly to transport matter and to stop time or slow it down. Shadow does not need a Chaos Emerald to activate Chaos Control. The Chaos Emeralds amplify the power of Chaos Control.

Shadow also possesses other chaos powers, such as Chaos Blast and Chaos Spear. Chaos Blast creates a powerful explosion that destroys everything within a 20 yard radius. Chaos Spear is an energy spear that impales enemies. It can be shot in groups or as a single spear. Both moves are highly destructive. The new Sonic the Hedgehog trailer shows him using another chaos power, though it is unknown what the chaos power is called.

In Sonic X, Shadow can carry Chaos Emeralds in his spines, the same way Tails puts the Chaos Emeralds in his tails. As shown in one of the episodes, Shadow will unleash all of his energy without his power rings, though this may not apply to the game series storyline.

In Shadow the Hedgehog, Shadow has shown that he can also use a wide range of close-combat weapons, firearms, semi-automatics and heavy assault weapons, improvise with debris, and drive a wide range of vehicles.

One of Shadow's assets are his Air Shoes (also called Jet Shoes and Hover Shoes), which ultilize powerful hover jets to reduce friction and enable Shadow to "skate" as fast as Sonic runs and hover in mid-air. The Shadow the Hedgehog game manual credits his "powerful body" as the reason for his incredible speed.

Super Shadow

Super Shadow as he appears in Shadow the Hedgehog

Super Shadow is the transformed state of Shadow. Shadow can perform this transformation when he harnesses the power of the seven Chaos Emeralds. In this form, his black fur becomes a whitish yellow and his forehead stripe becomes shorter in length, most noticeably in Sonic Adventure 2. Super Shadow made his first appearance in Sonic Adventure 2, where he had to battle against the Finalhazard with Super Sonic. Like Sonic, Shadow requires rings in order to maintain this super form.

In Super form, Shadow is stronger and invulnerable to attack. He has all of Shadow's normal abilities including Chaos Control and Chaos Blast. He can also use charged dashes, and fire blasts from his hand in the same fashion as using a gun. His signature Chaos Spear move can be charged up and fired as a condensed blast of energy.

Super Shadow's appearance in Sonic Adventure 2 caused many to believe he was a silver color. This was caused by hardware limitations at the time citation needed]. He is sometimes mistakenly called Hyper Shadow due to a printing error in a strategy guide.

Other appearances

Sonic X

Shadow, as seen in the anime Sonic X.

Shadow also appears on the cartoon Sonic X. Episodes 33 through 38 are based on Sonic Adventure 2, with quite a few differences from the game. For one, it was Chris Thorndyke who reminded Shadow of his true promise from Maria, not Amy Rose. Afterwards, he makes short appearances in flashbacks, but he makes his true return in episode 60, “The Return of Shadow.” In Japan he is voiced by his game voice actor, but in the dub he is voiced by Jason Griffith, who also does the voice of Sonic.

In Season 3, Shadow had no clear memory of his mysterious past, although in one episode (named "Molly's Dream" in the Japanese translation), he seems to have an image of Maria in his mind. However, he cannot seem to work out who she really was. In that same episode, Dr. Eggman is visited by people of the planet the Metarex are warring with, including one orange-haired female teenager by the name of Molly. Shadow and Rouge meet her, and at the end of the episode, Molly was killed by the Metarex. Shadow erects a makeshift grave for her, and Rouge notes that she was similar to Maria.

Later, Shadow receives a faint memory of Maria as he is holding the grey Chaos Emerald in his hands. In the last episode of the third season, as Shadow is in his Super form, in his mind there is an image of Molly, which used to be Maria in the episode "Molly's Dream". Shadow then performs Chaos Control to save everyone from an exploding planet, leaving a slightly confused Sonic and his friends behind. In the Japanese/French version of the last episode Shadow is seen at Molly's grave, where he seems to have put a pink flower on it.

The anime also mentions that Shadow is associated with a folklore hero named Black Wind.

Archie comic

Shadow, as seen in the comic issue #146.

Shadow has appeared a few times in Archie's Sonic comics. He first appears in Sonic #98, which is an introduction to the game Sonic Adventure 2, with a few changes to accommodate the Archie version of Mobius/Earth. The comic skips over the events of the game, and Shadow reappears in Sonic #124 with an explanation of how he survived his apparent death: An alien race, the Bem, rescued him so he could combat their enemy, the alien Xorda, buying the Bem time to escape. However, Shadow could not defeat the Xorda and plummeted toward Mobius. He survived the fall and was found by Sonic.

Shadow often works alone to achieve his goal, which is to discover the truth about his mysterious history. He has allied with Sonic to fight greater evils, like the Xorda, and he has been known to work either for or against Dr. Eggman depending on the circumstances (once even threatening to kill him in Sonic #133). Often, he will side with whomever he believes will bring him closer to the truth. This search has led him to interact with various other characters, including the robot Isaac, Knuckles' father Locke, and various versions of Metal Sonic. He also has some connection the being or beings responsible for the creation of Croctobot, the robot created from a fusion of Crocbot and Octobot. He has also sworn to protect Hope Kintobor at all costs, viewing it as atoning for Maria's death since Hope is one of the few living beings to show compassion towards him besides Maria, and also bears a striking resemblance to her (enough so that he nearly mistook Hope for Maria at one point).

Android and Clone Versions

In the video games Sonic Heroes and Shadow the Hedgehog, Shadow encounters several androids created in his image. Gifted with similar powers as Shadow, Shadow Androids also possess robotic artillery attacks.

In the multi-player mode on Shadow the Hedgehog, there are four special Shadow Androids. These robots are silver with green, pink, orange, and blue stripes, each wielding one of two different weapons. The multi-player mode also features Shadow himself, along with an android that looks just like him but with yellow stripes. They both start with no weapons but can carry any other weapon they collect. All of these Shadows claim to be the original, and claim that the others are androids.

Voice actors

  • In Japan, he is voiced by Koji Yusa.
  • Before Shadow the Hedgehog, he was voiced by David Humphrey.
  • As of Shadow the Hedgehog, Shadow's official English voice actor is Jason Griffith, who also voices Jet the Hawk, and Sonic.

Theme songs

  • Sonic Adventure 2: "Throw it All Away".
  • Sonic Heroes: Team Dark's "This Machine".
  • Shadow the Hedgehog: "Almost Dead", "Waking Up", "Chosen One", "All Hail Shadow", and "Never Turn Back".

Super Shadow

  • In Shadow the Hedgehog during the transformation into Super Shadow, an instrumental plays that mixes both "I Am (All of Me)" and "Live and Learn".
  • Sonic Adventure 2: "Live and Learn"
  • Shadow the Hedgehog: "I am (All of Me)"
