Heres my evidence.
 * The game starts of saying the story takes place at a long time after defeating Dr. Eggman. Just as Shattered World Crisis takes place years later, this could be the game takes place in the comics future.
 * As I said before, I've always found the geography of Sonic's world questionable given important places such as Green Hill Zone, Central City and Mystic Ruins are clumped together despite these places belonging to entirely seperate places. It could be that this is post-SGW Mobius in which landmasses have indeed switch around.
 * Sonic Chronicles is more canon based than pre-SGW Mobius, but it still had certain elements that inconsist with Sega Sonic canon. Such as Cream pointing out that Robodillo were robotisized animals. Even in Sonic Lost World where actual animals were shown made into robots, it was still not called "Roboticization", a term only used in comics. Not only that but the game also had different Swat Bots. These are also foreign as Dr. Eggman usually relies to EggPawns or Egg Fighters for security. However Sonic Chronicles would fit in more well with Post-SGW as it can easily explain these contradictions. For example while Roboticization has been weened out of the comics, in the post-SGW Mobius it is said that Dr. Eggman merely found roboticizing ineffective anymore than any clear reason and why some Mobians fear Dr. Eggman will start up roboticization again someday. Since I believe Sonic Chronicles takes place in future issues, it could be Dr. Eggman begins robotisizing again. Also Swat bots and their bulky armoured design can simply be the post-SGW versions of the old ones and serve as guardians for Metropolis.
 * Speaking of Metropolis, post-SGW takes out Robotropolis entirely and has "Metropolis Zone" as Dr. Eggmans seat of power. This corrospond well to Sonic Chronicles.
 * It is commonly believed by fans that some new characters who did not exist prior to the Super Genesis Wave could be post-carnations of past characters. For example it is believed that Dr. Ellidy fits the bill as Nate Morgans post-carnation. It could be indeed possible that the Marauders could all be the post-carnate of the Dark Legion. While I believe Relic the Pika has some similarities to Julie-Su, it is until Shade the Echidna we can be sure if she truely is post-carnate of Julie-Su or not. Especially if Sega ease up on it's rule that major characters cannot have romantic relations and the comic supports KnuxShade.
 * This particular thing I am hoping for, just to serve as a nice big middle finger towards Ken Penders for screwing with Archie legally.
 * As for why Sally Acorn and the other Knothole Freedom Fighters being absent throughout the game, this is the only contradiction for my theory. Sonic Chronicles takes place somewhen in the new Archie Sonic comics future which may explains their absence. Perhaps the majority of them goes off on seperate stories.

Keep in mind that I believe Sonic Chronicles could take place in Archie Sonic comics years from now. Technically the dust is still settling after the Super Genesis Wave and Sega may relent on some of it's writing codes for Archie to allow Archie to write the Sonic comics how they like again in the future (such as permit the characters to have romantic interests or have parents and such.) so we can only be certain how accurate I am in a decade or two. I havent thought about this before. Very convincing evidence.

Also, that last paragraph made me think of SonAmy.
