My theory on the Black Dragon is that it was once a Sungazer who transformed using the negative energy of the Chaos Emeralds similar to Perfect Chaos. My biggest clue is the fact that Trip also turned into a dragon from the Emeralds.
It's understandable why Trip ran, cried, and hid from Knuckles. To a degree, she was reminded of the bullying she suffered from Eggman and Fang. Unlike those jerks though, Knuckles is a bigger man and apologized, admitting his shortcomings. I hope we get another story with Amy and Trip one day.
The weird thing about Eggman and Fang is that even though the former scares her a bit and the latter can be mean to her, they never try to push her above her limits. Fang was only angry with Trip whenever she hurts him clumsily or corners him with danger.
Tails has Sonic, Cream has Amy, so I think it's nice that Trip has Knuckles as a big brother figure. I wish they'd bring her over to the modern era so we can see more of that dynamic with the two of them.
Trip The Sungazer is one of most precious and adorable characters in the Sonic Franchise. She totally deserves to be in more Sonic Media like the modern games and the IDW Comics. Who knows what possibilities hold for Trip. But one thing is for sure, Trip and the other classic characters like Mighty and Ray, really have potential to be in other Sonic Media.
Even major characters like Blaze and Silver have to some extent fallen into obscurity as they are not mentioned in the Sonic websites or most of their recent games aside from Generations and any party game
The most important thing to understand about knuckles is that he isn’t stupid. He is naïve and poorly socialized due to his isolation as the last of his people alone guarding the master emerald. This makes him vulnerable to being tricked, but not a complete imbecile like boom knuckles.
@@thymecrafter He acts like an idiot most of the time. It is *possible* that is just the way that his lack of socialization, and naivete are shown, but it felt to me more like he was just far stupider than main canon Knux. And I couldn't stand that.
I’m glad to see that Trip is getting more love. Though, I’m honestly surprised to learn Trip is NOT the last of her kind. I totally thought she was on her own, just like Knuckles. But it’s a nice twist.
I love Trip, can't wait to see the modern version. Her classic version is cute and I'm sure her modern version will be cute too! Thank you so much for the work you've done Sonic Theory, I enjoy listening to you!
Excuse me, but have You and everyone else noticed that the "Adult Sungazers" don't have "Modern Eyes" in the slightest? And why isn't Cream's eyes pure ebony, being the same height if not the exact same age as Classic Sonic in Generations etc.? 🤨The more I think about it, the more I'm really beginning to wonder if there's more to that "Phantom Ruby" and its reality warping properties in how it affected the Classic Era than meets the eye if you know what I mean!

I think they did a good job at moving the classic era timeline forward. Now we don’t have to wonder when the comics take place until a new classic game comes out. It makes me wonder when that will be done for the modern day sonic comics. When will we see sage in the comic to signify that we have moved to the time after frontiers
Same here! Too bad that it'll likely never happen because so many Sonic "fans" are insistent that Classic and Modern should be separate (even though they clearly aren't.)
@ yea I REALLY hate that IMO they should do one last cell shaded classic game and then say goodbye to classic Sonic putting all those "classic characters“ in the modern games
@@HdNinjaMsBrickStudioI've personally never been a big fan of this whole Classic/Modern divide. Literally the only reason that this entire fiasco came about in the first place is because of whiney fan boys complaining about Sonic's eye colour in Sonic 4, and it just feels like Sega have been trying to appeal to these whiners ever since. Now don't get me wrong, both Mania and Superstars were great games, but people seem to have honestly deluded themselves into thinking that Sonic's design has something to do with those game's quality. I've suggested for years that Sega should make a game with the momentum based physics and gameplay of the original Sonic games and Mania but with the Modern character designs, and these Classic purists just can't get their heads around that. "NO! Not the stinky Modern characters! They'd ruin it!" It just seems ridiculous to me that Sega is allowing people with such negative attitudes to ultimately dictate what the Sonic series can and can't be.
I get they don't want modern character to appear in classic because mess with their backstory, like Shadow or Cream. But I don't see any problem the way around.

Yup best girl is back! ^^ i realllly hope trip shows up in the modern caat i swear a character like her fits with sonic's modern cast she's just too good to be left out!
I’m go happy we got to explore more of Trip’s character. That she has her own tribe, and part of the reason she worked with Eggman and Fang was to protect her people. Trip may be very shy and unsure, she’s actually very kind and even enjoys herself with her animal friends. I also like how Trip has more gold than the others. It fits with her being the guardian, of a higher position than the others. Of course, we can’t ignore Knuckles. This really helps understand how he developed over the course of the games. How he used to be harsh also towards Amy and Tails, but slowly comes to be more gentle and understanding. Trip and Knuckles are very different guardians, but both do their own best.
I genuinely love that Trip was expanded upon because we havent had a new original classic playable character since amy, not too long ago but considering before amy and the reintroduction of mighty and ray, the new original yada yada characters were the chaotix plus bomb and heavy. Expanding on Trip will also make her feel like a mainstay in classic games Also nice touch using the Genshin OST, the game has melodies that put you to sleep in a good way
I’m so happy Trip made a return in this! She’s probably my favorite of the newer Sonic characters and I just think she’s such a sweetheart. I also love that she gets this dynamic with one of my favorite og characters! I think she and Knuckles work so well together with this mentor-student relationship :)
Whhhhaaattt ?! Trip’s family members I were surprised first time I thought knuckles not have it . They are lucky alive are special hardest hide on secret I’m strong very interesting about trip the sungazer. I have sonic superstars on my Nintendo switch I’m old veteran deaf sonic fan . First time add new classic character finally i saw trip were I find out sungazer are lizard looklike real and dragon too both im hooked to her look good character pretty i were surprised her abilities of same as sonic and knuckles and Amy rose and tails has . I believe best classic ERA were my old favorite on my childhood i know . Welcome , Trip were newer sonic family of sonic franchises ! I’m glad I never give up to my historical life.
Some of Knuckles comments reminds me how Boom Knuckles refers to events in a different way to make himself look good than Sonic or everyone else, that line of "It wasn't too long ago I bailed Sonic out and his buddies" that exactly sound like that Boom Knuckles would say.
Yeah. Trip is back wheee :D And i like this character 🐶👍 Also was like knuckles, when trip say she's not the last of his kind Like:"WHAT THE F💍💍k?! WHERE THEY COME FROM?!?!"
I'm seeing many, many, MANY based comments down here. I love Trip so much, I really hope that she continues to appear in more games and comics like this :D
I've played through Sonic Superstars and I REALLY didn't like the game. Started off great, but the problems kept piling on that I just had it at the Final Bosses for both Story Mode. Even the True Final Boss wore me out sadly. That said, I did like Trip and didn't know there was a comic sequel to it. Nice to know Trip ISN'T the last of her kind. I really how to see her return in the future and seeing a Modern design, but I don't think it will change that much. And I love more focus on Knuckles... it makes me wonder HOW did he get to be alone in the first place? Did he really not have any family when he was young? And how did he learn he needed to protect the Master Emerald? Did the Emerald tell him? And seeing Trip's home and her people, I really wish there a Sonic RPG where you explore all over the world and learn the lore and history of the people you've met like Trip. Heck, I'm trying to make my own Sonic RPG where you play as an Amnesic Human Avatar. Cliche, I know, but with the memory loss it gives a good reason for new players to Sonic to learn about the world and veteran Sonic fans a chance to learn more about the world of Sonic they love. Trying to figure out how to make an Action Command system similar to the Paper Mario games. I really think that kind of gameplay would work, like using the moves from the Sonic games to perform spin dash and homing attack for example.
This work so we'll with the IDW Sonic annual focused on Blaze. There Knuckles give with conseul to Blaze doubts, it work for itself. But this make Knucless retroactively more experienced in giving advice, gove exposeure to when Knuckles gain said experience, showing us a more inexperienced version of him learning and reflecting over his mistakes with his friend and the acerts. Itself The IDW Knuckles is potrait as a more mature and wise compared to classic version, but the games not give much exposure to this learning, excepting the first games of the modern era, oddly forces(though only the taking the lead) and Frontiers
If knuckles was never taught then there's a high probability that he has abilities he's not aware of because no one taught him to do those things. I doubt that will ever come up in any game, comic, or show because the only way it could is if Knuckles met someone who was on his island before his people were wiped out. I think it should though. Sonic and Trip both have supernatural abilities Trip can become a little dragon and Sonic can run at supersonic speeds. Amy is also a hedgeog so she's probably faster than sound too if she wants to be. Tails can just straight up fly... Knuckles... What can knuckles actually do that's unique to him and his extinct race?
@@GarciaSweet still if he'd had parents toteach him maybe those abilities would be refined into something more. (also I'd argue neither of those abilities really see a lot of use, I didn't even know he could glide)
@@the_magma_human33 I'll be honest... I'm not a sonic fan, I'm an IDW fan. They could get me into anything by writing a comic for it's universe. They're so dedicated to finding every little piece of lore from any game, movie, show, obscure toy, crossover, or comment from the creators and making as much of it as they can work within the one universe. I wish I could achieve that.
@@lexibyday9504Knuckles has been gliding in every game he has been in, including his debut. I’m suprized you just read the idw comics everybody is just constantly hating on them I thought only people who played the games would read the Sonic idw comics. Recently, knuckles has been using fire powers and it looks like there trying to tie knuckles into the flames of disaster (which is related to 06) in the movies verse
I don't know about you, but Sonic Superstars is definitely a personal favorite of mine. I personally really liked the graphics and the gameplay and music was fun. I have a lot of nostalgia with it too. However, I didn't like the bosses because of how long they are. I believe Amy and Trip were the highlight of the story. I personally related and sympathised with Trip. Before I played Sonic Superstars I would rarely stand up for myself simply because I didn't want to go through the effort of taking action. However, seeing Trip stand up to Eggman and Fang at the end of the game and siding with Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Amy taught me that if I don't like the way someone is acting towards you, you don't have to take it and standing up for yourself is highly beneficial as you don't have to tolerate people treating you like dirt and can have friends who care about you, unconditionally. This is a character arc I relate to a lot.
I hope she returns in the mainline IDW comics in modern stylr and she and her island are part of an arc that's part of the fifth saga and i hope that in turn it takes place after sonic frontiers
It didn’t sold that well at launch but according to Sega’s quarterly earnings it managed to hold pretty well and ended up becoming a financial success at Sega
She was an unexpected surprise and delight to this comic. If anything now I want a sequel story of her geeking out about visiting Angel Island. 😊 Now I’m curious. She’s not the last of her kind, so does that mean there’s other guardians like in the tapestry? And if that’s the case what do they guard since the chaos emeralds aren’t on the islands?🤔
imagine if there were more echidna out there that even knuckles is unaware of. Even though his tribe is gone, there could be other tribes out there. Ones that have different vibes to his. Knuckles would still be the last of his tribe, but not the last of his kind. Even funnier if the first tribe he finds are actually more like sonic; adding to how different they are and maybe even why they survived compared to his.
This is mThis my first video that I've seen from you and the last thing I expected was the verse at the end, plus the fact that it ties in to the video
When people ask me why I love the IDW Sonic comics, it's because of things like this. It's not an interpretation of the main series, like Archie or Fleetway. The IDW comic series *IS* part of the main series in all the right ways. I can absolutely see this happening before Knuckles' story arc in Sonic Adventure. Also, marvelous use of Proverbs 9:9 at the end, really tying together this story and that profound wisdom from Solomon
I mean, this comic makes a good tie-in between Knuckles' character in Modern Era and how he was in Classic Era. You know, besides the "gullible echidna works for eggman" thing happening twice. (Sonic Adventure and Sonic Advance 2)
What'll be nice is if sega can make a game that bridges the classic and modern eras, so we can find out exactly why we haven't seen characters like Trip, mighty, ray, or any of the rest of the strictly classic cast.
I like that you added a Bible verse that connected to the message of the story in 13:08. More RUclipsrs should do that when they do storytelling analysis'. Thanks for doing that, and God bless.
I would like to see a video that tries to explain the Freedom Fighters into the IDW. Their origin, their personal stories, and a plot that brings them in.
Shadow is my favorite character, trip is my favorite CLASSIC character every since watching the trailer and playing the game, shadow is just because he's, well, y'know
I think the armor trip is wearing is something from the ancients in Sonic frontiers, In frontiers, we know that Knuckle's has tried punching one of the ruins and admits its REALLY tough, and in Sonic Frontiers, we also know the ancients before their battle gave the chaos emeralds to a tribe of people. It was never stated what tribe it was, and the north star islands have a direct correlation with it being said latent abilities from each individual chaos emerald is awaken on the islands (hence why we never see superstars emerald powers again). So I think the ancients must've given the emeralds to this tribe, and maybe a corrupt sungazer tapped into negative energy of the chaos emerald, turning into the evil black dragon we see in sonic superstars, as we see Trip harnessed the power of the positive energy of the chaos emeralds (like sonic does) and becomes a bright golden dragon. The sungazers must've fought the dragon, but it was too strong, and sealed it away (much like how the ancients sealed The End away). Then later gave the emeralds to the echidna tribe due to its power that they were not ready to use or comprehended it. The murals in golden capital zone were also said to be lost to time so its safe to assume that mural was made A LONG time ago, most likely predating things on Angel island since Angel island isnt THAT ancient.
GEEZ!! At this rate with all the amazing lore and extra hidden details from the official media, it'd be perfect for a second shot at the RPG format but with Atlus front and center helping with the gameplay, cause... screw Bioware!!
if sonic superstars takes place during the past (i’m pretty sure) doesn’t that mean she probably dies before the modern era because we have never seen her?
>Black Onyx Oshit... are we finally getting the payoff for that thing? It's technically been missing since the last Wolf Pack/Felidae chapter of Archie Sonic

A reasonable assumption.

That does make sense.
Makes sense due to trips super form is a dragon

@@unkownunkown2420 it's got a 73 on metacritic, it wasn't reviewed poorly
It didn’t sold that well at launch but according to Sega’s quarterly earnings it managed to hold pretty well and ended up becoming a financial success at Sega
I see those two, and it's like seeing Piccolo and Gohan all over again like, literally gives me those kinds of vibes.
She was an unexpected surprise and delight to this comic.
If anything now I want a sequel story of her geeking out about visiting Angel Island. 😊
Now I’m curious. She’s not the last of her kind, so does that mean there’s other guardians like in the tapestry? And if that’s the case what do they guard since the chaos emeralds aren’t on the islands?🤔
The Black Onyx
I really hope they permanently add trip to the Sonic team, such a fantastic character with amazing lore and a awesome super form
i love mecha mk 2 so much and when i saw 1:16 i genuinely squealed a bit and clapped my hands
7:30 so apparently she enchanted her armor with Thorns
imagine if there were more echidna out there that even knuckles is unaware of. Even though his tribe is gone, there could be other tribes out there.
Ones that have different vibes to his. Knuckles would still be the last of his tribe, but not the last of his kind.
Even funnier if the first tribe he finds are actually more like sonic; adding to how different they are and maybe even why they survived compared to his.
1:30 I never thought the Sandopolis Ghosts were so cute.
0:37 AYO IS THAT A TRANSFORMERS REFERENCE
I’d love a boost or open zone game with trip.
Imagine exploring the island and the village with new renditions of the superstars levels.
This is mThis my first video that I've seen from you and the last thing I expected was the verse at the end, plus the fact that it ties in to the video
When people ask me why I love the IDW Sonic comics, it's because of things like this. It's not an interpretation of the main series, like Archie or Fleetway. The IDW comic series *IS* part of the main series in all the right ways. I can absolutely see this happening before Knuckles' story arc in Sonic Adventure.
Also, marvelous use of Proverbs 9:9 at the end, really tying together this story and that profound wisdom from Solomon
I am so happy to see trip return because she a fun character in my opinion.
It would be pretty funny to see IDW make classic knuxAmy Canon along with trip, the sungazer having a diarrhea
First Wade, now Trip. How many people is Knuckles gonna train? 😂
A lot, because it is through teaching others that one can learn
There's a reason why Sonic's nickname for Knuckles is Knucklehead
im very glad how trip din't fell on the Classic purgatory...
She has a lot of potential in the future tbh
Modern trip along mighty and ray would be so nice
loved him having the sonic thought bubble
it was funny
I mean, this comic makes a good tie-in between Knuckles' character in Modern Era and how he was in Classic Era.
You know, besides the "gullible echidna works for eggman" thing happening twice. (Sonic Adventure and Sonic Advance 2)
Trip is an adorable little bean and deserves all the love
This got me wanting to read the comics. Thank you.
We need a Classic Sonic game that includes Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Mighty, Ray, Trip, and Team Chaotix!!!
And honestly, I OTP Trip and Knuckles, the story potential is incredible with these two if we're being honest.
What'll be nice is if sega can make a game that bridges the classic and modern eras, so we can find out exactly why we haven't seen characters like Trip, mighty, ray, or any of the rest of the strictly classic cast.
man i was kinda scared trip would end up like bean and bark, amazing characters that barley appear in games and are locked to the classic universe
I like that you added a Bible verse that connected to the message of the story in 13:08. More RUclipsrs should do that when they do storytelling analysis'. Thanks for doing that, and God bless.
Why do the sonic superstars clips look like they can be an sonic anime???
I would like to see a video that tries to explain the Freedom Fighters into the IDW. Their origin, their personal stories, and a plot that brings them in.
Shadow is my favorite character, trip is my favorite CLASSIC character every since watching the trailer and playing the game, shadow is just because he's, well, y'know
I hope trip becomes modern.
11:17
Of course, he crashlanded the egg-pod
I can’t wait till we get the chaotix anniversary next year
I'd love to have Trip as the true fifth member of Classic Sonic alongside Mighty and Ray.
I think the armor trip is wearing is something from the ancients in Sonic frontiers, In frontiers, we know that Knuckle's has tried punching one of the ruins and admits its REALLY tough, and in Sonic Frontiers, we also know the ancients before their battle gave the chaos emeralds to a tribe of people. It was never stated what tribe it was, and the north star islands have a direct correlation with it being said latent abilities from each individual chaos emerald is awaken on the islands (hence why we never see superstars emerald powers again). So I think the ancients must've given the emeralds to this tribe, and maybe a corrupt sungazer tapped into negative energy of the chaos emerald, turning into the evil black dragon we see in sonic superstars, as we see Trip harnessed the power of the positive energy of the chaos emeralds (like sonic does) and becomes a bright golden dragon. The sungazers must've fought the dragon, but it was too strong, and sealed it away (much like how the ancients sealed The End away). Then later gave the emeralds to the echidna tribe due to its power that they were not ready to use or comprehended it.
The murals in golden capital zone were also said to be lost to time so its safe to assume that mural was made A LONG time ago, most likely predating things on Angel island since Angel island isnt THAT ancient.
Good to see knux ain't alone as a guard dog anymore
GEEZ!! At this rate with all the amazing lore and extra hidden details from the official media, it'd be perfect for a second shot at the RPG format but with Atlus front and center helping with the gameplay, cause... screw Bioware!!
I thought Trip was really cute. I wonder if modern Sonic will remember her at all or if she exists on a different timeline
Classic Character I want to see in future games:
Mighty, Ray, Honey, Fang, Bean, Bark, & Trip
So all of them
2:32 is that genshin theme!??!
She got more characterization, no less.
Too bad her people is just her design c/p'd with a very few different details.
CHIEF MEDIIIIIC
DONT ABBREVIATE COPY PASTE LIKE THAT
CHIEF MEDIIIIIC
Oh thank god. I thought they meant something else.
@@gamerits Sorry.
Trip my beloved
Now i want to know the cover of Gotta Go Fast at the end of the video.
This trip has a modern version as well.
11:30 guys.. look at eggman for a second...
Trip is so adorable....Really!!!!
Glad that isn't quite a One-Off character. Also, love the inclusion of Bible verses. Please keep doing that 🙏 ✝️
We need a lego minifig for trip to ad to the rest i realy like this character
Cute Dragon lizard needs to return
if sonic superstars takes place during the past (i’m pretty sure) doesn’t that mean she probably dies before the modern era because we have never seen her?
8:37 BRU- WHY IS IT COINCIDENCE OR WHAT BC IS COBRA KAI JUST RECENTLY??!! MY YOUNGEST BROTHER WATCHED THIS LIKE IN *LOOP-DA-LOOP*
Yo, what's the name of the song you used at the end? It was so good!
i LOVE trip shes SOOO CUTE, and getting her backstory is such a treat!!
I like the Bible verse at the end. You never really see that in gaming videos. You read regularly?
An amazing comic.
1:30 ghost: Na let him cook
Trip is cute 😊
knux best character
How melancholy that you have Genshin impact music in this video!
>Black Onyx
Oshit... are we finally getting the payoff for that thing? It's technically been missing since the last Wolf Pack/Felidae chapter of Archie Sonic
What is that gorgeous song at the end?
if trip need a taem to get into the moder timeline put her on a team with ray and migthy
Trip Is So Fucking Cute‼️
