I thought Sonic was more aimed at teens, at least the later games once Shadow came in and they started to get darker and say things like "damn" and "suck", plus they made a big deal about Maria's death and she wasn't even a villain

To the Black Doom thing, I pretty much assumed it from Gerald saying something about "turning his own power against him" and that Shadow is the only one that can stop him.
