Okay, let me get one thing straight here! MEPHILES IS NOT A F***ING HEDGEHOG! He is a being of darkness, hence the name Mephiles the DARK! How could people get that wrong? Just because he looks like Shadow doesn't mean that he's a hedgehog! Before he took the form of Shadow, all he was was a shapeless mass of "darkness." If u are too lazy to play the game, of can't because u don't have the right station, like me, WATCH THE DAMN CUTSCENES ON YOUTUBE! THEY ARE EVERYWHERE FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! And if u have a parental control thing and can't get to youtube, find them on something called GOOGLE VIDEO! IT'S THAT SIMPLE! Now, I want everyone to stop calling him a hedgehog and start calling him a demon because that is WHO HE IS! (lol Shadow the Hedgehog game joke!)
