But  Gamma, Orbot and Cubot, Shadow, Mephiles, Blaze, and more were all better written and designed. I think they realized they had driven all the classic characters into the ground, so they shifted their focus and brought along Chip, who made it feel a little more like Dora and a little less like Sonic. Of course, he's still not as bad as Elise... Ew, and Shadow? No! The best line he has was about how he doesn't know where that damn fourth chaos emerald is. Shadow just shouldn't exist. Same with Silver. They're both really bad characters. One's that get shipped with shrek a lot. You cursed! It's a flame war!!! Shadow was a good character initially. He was complex, and different, but good. He got ran in to the ground. Mephiles was also a good character, offbeat, but good. He just got stuck in a lame game. And even if they are/were lame (which they aren't) they still beat Elmo, I mean Chip. No, they never did, and they never will. They are AWFULLY written, and constantly act like idiots that never know what they want and what they're doing. Shadow's game is the perfect example of this. Just the whole game. 06's story is so awful, and Mephiles is no gem in it. WHen i think about bad, stupid villians, i think, Mephiles the Dark.
