  • About The Q&A

    These are questions and answers that were submitted up until 2008. They could be freely submitted and a member of the staff would do their best to answer.

    Looking for Dr. FexusFan? His replies can be found here.

    Causes???

    One last Q about Chao Sickness I forgot to include. How can chao get the colds?

    It just happens randomly.

    Chao Sickness

    1. How can you tell a chao is sick? 2. Can chao die of sickness? 3. What are the viruses?

    1. Watch their behavior. If they make odd sounds or look uncomfortable, take them to the doctor to check.
    2. Not directly, but it may make them unhappy.
    3. Mild things like a cough, rash, hiccups, etc..

    “SatAM”

    Whose idea was it to use “SatAM” as a codename for “Sonic the Hedgehog” on ABC and where did they get it from?

    No clue. As for the nickname, in the US, it originally came on Saturday in the morning (AM). That’s the idea behind the nickname. –True Red

    Half Fish or Swamp Monster??

    In a list of the 21 ainimals in SA2B there was an ainimal called a half fish but when I tried to find out where to find one by looking on your games page I couldn’t find any half fish but I did find an ainimal called a swamp monster. Is a half fish the same as a swamp monster or are they different ainimals???

    They’re the same thing. They’re also known as kappa.

    more stuff!

    How do I send fanart if I dont have a scanner? do I mail it to you or somethin`? If so what`s the Sonic HQ address ( Like State, City, Street, Zip, etc…)?

    Obviously, you don’t send any in. I think if the rules say we don’t want to know where you live, we’re not going to accept addresses, nor give out our own. –True Red

    Green chao??

    Ok, i was a picture of a chao that was green, had these long head things that go almost to the ground, and a weird (i think blue) marking on its head. how do you make this chao? ((p.s. site rocks! best sonic site on the net!))

    That sounds like a Neutral/Swimming/Swimming. Raise a Neutral/Swimming chao and continue to give it yellow drives to make its appearance change further.

    why are the comics uncomplete?

    Why are the comic scans uncomplete? Do you not own them so you can copy the whole thing? If you do own them can we send in requests for the ones we want toatally scanned?

    Yes, I own the comics I scan. The rest has been answered before. Go read the Q&A archives. –True Red

    Chao chaos!

    Its me again. But this time it concerns my chao, CHUNKIS. Y`see, I gave him a bat, just one measely bat, and he loses his legs. No problem. But I entered him in chao karate and he cant kick. No problem. The strategy guide for Sonic Adventure 2 Battle says He`ll get his legs back if I give him a non-paranormal animal. Here`s the problem: I must have given him like 75 regular animals and he still doesnt have legs. Please help me, for me and CHUNKIS` dignity! Thank you.

    Despite what that guide said, try giving your chao skeleton dogs to restore its legs.

    Liberty chao???

    Can I acually get a liberty chao (the chao statue in some of the chao races)?

    No. The statue’s just for decoration.

    Normal: Raccoon, Ram, Skunk
    Running: Cheetah, Boar, Rabbit
    Power: Gorilla, Bear, Tiger
    Flying: Peacock, Condor, Parrot
    Swimming: Sea Otter, Penguin, Seal

    Chao aches

    I’ve heard that from SA2, Sonic has a speaical ablility called: Magic Hands, what excalty is this?

    Info is in the games section.

    New comic

    I saw your thee new comic scans, are they from the new comics? And if they are can you please scan the parts with more Sonic, Sally, and Mina conflicts? I just feel that Sonics and Sallys relationship is too pure to pass out.:D Thanx :DD

    I scan what I choose to scan. If what you like doesn’t make it, then you’ll have to get the issue to see it. –True Red

    Purple haired Chao

    I saw a picture of a hero chao that had blue shiny wings and four big purple hairs sticking out of it’s head. How do I get my chao to look like that? It’s been bugging me for days.

    That’s a Hero/Flying/Flying chao. Evolve a Hero/Flying chao and continue to give it purple drives until it has that appearance.

    Sonic comic series

    Say it isn’t so! In your summary of issue 125 you mention that the series might be ending soon, is this true? I always thought this series had a few years left in it at least. How many more issues do you think sonic will last?

    No there’s nothing in the spoilers to suggest the series might be ending. Saying “the beginning of the end” (assuming that’s what alarmed you) isn’t any different from Sonic #50 being called “The Big Goodbye” and considering we’re at next month, it definitely didn’t mean the end of the comic as some did think it did. Let’s just say people are not paying attention to what the spoilers/titles are talking about–they refer to the story, nothing else. So if you want to guess what’s going on, think about the storyline and nothing else. –True Red

    Dirk’s Debut

    The Profiles says that Dirk Debuted in “Cry of the Wolf” but I saw him in “Warp Sonic”. Having never seen “Cry of the Wolf” I eager to know Where Dirk actually debuted in.

    They’re not the same person. Those are two different characters that you’re referencing. You’re talking about Griff’s friend of sorts. That’s not the person in the profiles. –True Red

    chao?

    How do you pronounce chao?Thanks for your time!

    Technically, it’s “cha-oh”, which basically sounds like “chow”.

    anthropomorphic

    U said that sonic & co. are anthropomorphic animals, well what is that?

    An anthropomorphic is the actual term for furries. They’re animals that have been given human-like qualities.

    Plants that steal chao— true or false

    hello there again…. uhh,are the rumours true that if you leave too many weeds that they turn into people and steal your chao?I really wanna know!

    Chao question(s)

    Can you please answer these? 1.How long does it take chao to get older? 2.How do you get the other gardens?What are they? 3.What is the Mystic melody?How do you get it? Thanks!

    1. About 3-5 hours of in-garden time for one chao “year”.
    2. You unlock the Hero and Dark gardens the first time you evolve a chao into a Hero or Dark type.
    3. It’s an upgrade that’s used to activate the shrines within the levels and is often needed for the third mission. Each character’s Mystic Melody is hidden within one of their levels. How to get it for each character is given in the games section.

    SA2B 1.)Chao 2.)Knux “sunglasses”

    Ok I have 4 questions: 1) I know ya can get chao that look like Sonic, Amy, Tails, and Shadow. How do ya get chaos to look like those characters? 2) Can ya get Rouge and Eggman chao? 3)What is a chaos chao & how do ya get one? 4) On the last emerald on the last stage of Pumpkin Hill I can see the emerald but I can’t get it. The computer thingys say that Knux needs some ‘sunglasses’ to get the emerald. What are these sunglasses and where do I get em’? Are they like Rouge’s treasure scope? Sorry this is so long! Will ya please answer me soon cuz I REALLY need these tips soon! Thanx!!! 🙂

    1. This question has been answered previously.
    2. No.
    3. Chaos chao are special immortal chao. Instructions on getting one have been given previously.
    4. Where to get the sunglasses can be found in the games section. They have the same function as Rouge’s treasure scope.

    Big animals

    Why are the sonic characters so big, hedgehog are small, aren’t they. A friend of mine said that they were humans and was transformed that way. Is that true?

    No. They’re just anthropomorphic animals.

    Sonic collector sets

    I’ve asked over at archie comics it self but I get no response. Do you guys have any clue how often archie comics releases it’s collectors sets? They have up to 2000 (which ends at 89) and I was wondering if I should start hunting down 90 and up now, or wait a few months for archie comics themselves to realese them?

    How often Archie updates their website is on them, which I’m assuming you’re going by. They’ve offered one for 2001 in the monthly comic itself (going up to 102) for about a year now. –True Red

    Chaos emeralds

    I was wondering what happens when you beat the game with all the chaos emeralds in Sonic the Hedgehog 1, and why is there only one?

    All the plants turn into feet, that’s really just about it.

    troubleshooting with lock on technology with sonic and knuckles

    Im having trouble when I lock sonic the hedgehog 3 onto sonic and knuckles. The problem is the sega logo is scrambled ,and the sonic and knuckles title screen comes up instead of the sonic 3 and knuckles title screen. My data is also erased and I cannot get it back. Yes I did clean the cartridge and check all the connections. Not only that if sonic 3 and knuckles comes up it is scrambled, and resets before the title screen comes up. More trouble yet if the sonic 3 and knuckles title screen comes up that is also scrambled. How do I fix these problems?

    Sometimes the game don’t want to connect especially if they’re old. Try putting it on different ways and be sure that all the connectors, including the Genesis slot itself are cleaned. Try locking Sonic 3 on certain ways and putting the S&K card in certain ways. If nothing still seems to work then maybe the game(s) have burnt out. I have the same problem with mine and sometimes they just need some extra cleaning and being put in just right to get them to work.
