Light Gaia's Minions are both the ancestors of chao and mobians.

I came to this conclusion from observing how chao are able to take on traits of small animals after touching them. I also observed chao intelligence to be that of a human infant to young toddler, such as able to use tools, communicate with carers and other things,

But most parrots also fill such criteria as well so that may not proove anything.

As for why mobians being the decendants of Light Gaia's minions is from observing Dark Gaia's minions, especially Nightmares. Their posture, anatomy and shape.

I also point out why Light Gaia takes the form of some sort of fairy-chihuahua like creature instead of something that more reflect Dark Gaia in size and power. My theory is that like Dark Gaia in Unleashed, at one point he was broken apart into minions. Given he couldn't restore his physical being this left him as a small leftover piece. But as his minions evolved into mobians, he too changes to reflect his minions.

So in a sense, Light Gaia couble be "God" to mobians. (Though mobians probably practice and share as many religions with the humans to know of this.)
