Has that been confirmed? Yes. Sonic Heroes was The Chaotix's true introduction into the canon. Where did Sega/Sonic Team themselves say that? I'm not sure...I think it was either Yuji Naka or Takashi Iizuka. But it doesn't really matter because Metal Sonic is in it so it makes no sense unless it takes place before Sonic CD, and even then the Chaotix don't remember Eggman in Sonic heroes. So it just sorta has to be non-canon. and before you say something like "what it Eggman just built another Metal Sonic?" Saying a game is non-canon takes precedence over making something up to excuse a game that didn't get the memo when Sonic 4 was retconned into existence or when the Chaotix were re-invented for Sonic Heroes.
