Shadow does what he wants and Takes Action when he wants. He constantlly remincents on the past and thinks about Sonic and his friends, and meantally facepalms at every annoyinmg antic Sonic does. Robot? I think Not.

Also I do not think Shadow's death would have made much sense. Thats a plot whole in its self. He is Imortal. He can get wounded but basically his body would regenerate and he would walk away like nothing ever happened. He only sufferes Mmiminal damage. The Aminsa thing can kinda stick though if he hit his head hard enough from the fall his mind could reset like when he awoke from his stasis.

And yes Eggman Did save him and bring him back, One i belive its because they are family and Eggman wanted to keep his legacy alive, Second I dont think Eggman is entirely evil Hes like Discord From MLP. Hes just a guy that causes trouble and wants to take over the world. He usually ends up doing the right thing in the end. He sees himself in his Grandfather, Gerald, Looks up to him And wants to be like him. One part of him wants to take over like Gerald did but another part of him wants to do good. I think Eggman Just cant handle all the idiots in the world and wants to build an empire, to save people from themselves,  but is also conflicted by many other emotions that misguide him and make him the 'evil' guy that he is. Thats my theory. Anyway Off topic.

And As many fans Say Shadow still does have a purpose. He may not be in every single game, fighting along side sonic but he still has a job to do and a promise to keep. Working with GUN puts him at an attority to protect the earth without being arrested for destroying places in the process. It gives him the image that says 'Yeah hes violent but hes on our side now hes the good guy.'

Shadow still has a purpose, and for now i thing the characters i just growing up and learning how to move on as so to say. Ive noticed Amy has become less clingy to Sonic, Sonic has become more chill around her and lets an occasional hug slip in every now and then. Tails is getting smarter and is learning how to impress himself and not be there to impress Sonic. And Knuckles is loosening up a bit and not so hot headed as he used to be. Chaos seem to cling to him now.

Though i do have an idea that if Shadow was put into more of those feely games where it doesnt look like he fits in, his additude may change for 'F the World!' To 'I have nothing better to do' And may actually Smile more often. (He wouldnt let anyone see though cause hes a butt -3-) He should be in more games. I think his character may improve and Grow up a little more.

In other words YES SHADOW IS MY FAVORITE CHARACTER. Hes so much fun, and i love to analyze his and th others characters its fun.
