Welcome to c/sonic on pawb.social, the largest Sonic the Hedgehog community on the fediverse!
Come and discuss the radical blue blur and his friends!
1. Be respectful
c/sonic encourages discussion, but all interactions must remain respectful. Harassment, trolling, drama, shipshaming, or any offensive/bigoted content (e.g., racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, xenophobia) are not allowed. If you encounter harassment, report it instead of engaging. Responding with similar behavior may result in moderation action. Constructive criticism is welcome, but if it’s not respectful, don’t post it.
2. No sexually explicit content
Pornographic or sexually explicit content is prohibited. Non-explicit NSFW content must be tagged appropriately. Moderators may remove or restrict content deemed too suggestive.
3. Stay on topic
All posts must be related to the Sonic franchise. This includes the games, comics, movies, TV series, fan content, etc.
4. Credit creators
Always credit original artists in the title and link to the source in the post body or comments. If the source cannot be found, explain your efforts. Respect creators’ repost policies. Do not claim others’ work as your own - this may result in a ban.
5. Spoilers
Use spoiler tags for content released within the past two weeks.
6. Reposts
Avoid reposting recent or commonly shared content. Moderators decide what counts as a repost.
7. No AI Content
AI-generated content is not allowed. We support human creators.
8. No Spam
Spam includes repetitive posts, copy-pasted comments, or low-effort content. Repeated violations may lead to a ban.

Imo, Metal Sonic. I think Shadow is enough of his own character with unique goals to not be a full rival status. Metal on the other hand... his life's purpose is to BE Sonic. And he will take every chance he can get to prove that.
I had an idea for a timeline where Sonic is MIA, and Metal Sonic, realizing this means he's the only Sonic in existence, becomes a hero to emulate the real Sonic, even turning against Eggman to fulfill his true purpose: Be Sonic. IDK, I would like to see more Metal Sonic stories that dive into his character and thoughts. Scrapnik Island was a great taste of that with Mecha Sonic!
