Dear WC,

Super Mario Bros. Z is not canon to the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. Anything that happened there is irrelevant. However, while a good handful of us might agree that Shadow the Hedgehog is indeed awesome, it is by his actions, history, and abilities in the series' canon. Not only that, but his awesomeness is irrelevant here. The question is who is Sonic's best sidekick.

Thank you.
