“ | I want ultimate power. I want the world to know that I am the Ultimate Lifeform. You’ve been stealing my spotlight for long enough. I tried to ignore it, but I can’t stand it any longer. Your stupid ignorance. Your carefree attitude. It makes me sick. I’m going to show you your place, the. Everyone will know my name: Shadow the Hedgehog! | „ |
~ Shadow explaining his motivations to Sonic. |
Shadow the Hedgehog is the main antagonist of the fanmade series Sonic Reversal.
He is Sonic the Hedgehog's sworn rival, often attempting to kill him or anyone who personally wrongs him.
He’s tired of Sonic having the spotlight, so he attempts to steal the Chaos Emeralds, kill Sonic and take over the world. Unlike his canonic counterpart, he is extremely deadly and has less redeeming qualities.
His Evil Ranking[]
What Makes Him Close to Being Pure Evil?[]
- Unlike his canonic counterpart, who, while still possessing a number of corrupting qualities, contributes greatly to the protection of his world, this version of Shadow appears to be a completely delusional psychopath, who is fueled only by his envy for his sworn rival.
- He stole the Chaos Emeralds from Knuckles while Rouge was distracting him and was about to use them to power himself, but he was distracted by Sonic.
- He engaged a deadly fight against Sonic and Knuckles, and launched a deadly attack against Sonic in an attempt to kill him, but Amy sacrificed herself and died to that attack.
- While he does express remorse for killing Amy by accident, especially since Amy reminded him of his late friend Maria Robotnik, he still expresses anger how Amy was an idiot for saving Sonic. Later on, he even expresses glee towards Sonic that this time nobody would be around to save him like last year.
- After Amy’s death, he took over the world and enslaved every inhabitant of it: everyone who refused to bow to him would get punished. During this time, he had Sonic imprisoned and tortured him every single day he refused to be his slave. He also spread the fake rumor that Knuckles was dead and that he stole the Master Emerald.
- After Sonic escaped, he immediately found him and engaged another fight against him and Tails: when he was about to kill Sonic, Knuckles showed up and saved Sonic.
- He created a Metal Sonic that looked exactly like Sonic and used it to trick Tails and steal his Chaos Emerald.
- He engaged another deadly fight against the Sonic Team inside a volcano.
What Prevents Him from Being Pure Evil?[]
- He gets angry because Amy dies, claiming that she was the only one who reminded him of Maria. This shows that he wasn't trying to kill Amy.
- He has an honorable moment when he decides to spare Sonic because Amy already got killed that day.
- Like his original counterpart,he stills cares for Maria.
Trivia[]
- This is the third version of Shadow to be considered Near Pure Evil: the others are his Boom Counterpart and King Shadow.
