• Fridge Logic -> Fridge Brilliance: A lot of the game's plot falls apart if you think about it too much. Fridge-inducing moments include: why Mephiles had to merge with the Iblis of the present, rather than the Iblis in the future despite having the power to travel through time; how Elise knew Silver when she was unconscious during the entirety of his visit to the past; the infamous blue Chaos Emerald time loop; for that matter, where any of the seven Chaos Emeralds are during the plot at large, Elise not crying for ten years of her life, including after she finds out her father is dead, and why so many levels end with nothing accomplished. All this is probably a good reason for the Reset Button Ending.
  • The blue Chaos Emerald situation is not a plot hole, but a stable-time loop. Everything else listed, however, has no excuse.
    • It actually is a plot hole. If it's in a Stable Time Loop in this game, what about its presence in the rest of the games?
      • Yes, it's STILL a plothole, as the game never bothered explaining how the time loop started.
    • Maybe there's 2 blue Chaos Emeralds due to one being in the time loop. Yes, it's a paradox, but they're Chaos Emeralds. They don't have to follow logic.
      • That can't be possible. If there were two blue emeralds, how come that when hunting for Chaos Emeralds in previous games, the Sonic characters never found Elise's emerald (especially when they used radars to detect their energy signatures)?
• Why does Iblis jump towards the purple glowing orbs during the Iblis Phase 2 battle? Because they give off the same kind of energy as Mephiles (the purple mist is the same, and the orbs are found in dark areas, except the fight, where it's slightly lit in there. The purple mist resembles Mephiles' ooze form). He's drawn to anything that resembles Mephiles, and is therefore not a stupid beast distracted by something shiny.
• Why doesn't Amy react jealously when Elise has to kiss Sonic to resurrect him? Because she realises his life is more important than her own Clingy Jealous Girl tendencies.
  • And, you know, all of reality was being torn apart as she knew it, at the time.
• If both of Elise's parents are dead, and Soleanna is a monarchy, then why is Elise still a princess and not a queen? And who has been ruling Soleanna for the past several years if it hasn't been Elise?
  • She's still a princess because Princesses Rule and children associate princesses with good and queens with evil.
• Why does Silver trust Mephiles The Dark so easily? Well, Silver and Blaze live in a post-apocalyptic world, where there is no one left but them, presumably. They wouldn't be familiar with the Obviously Evil trope, and now that they see that they have a possibility to change their world, they take it.
• While they don't share the same VA, Mephiles and The Duke of Soleanna have similar voices. Why? Because Mephiles based his voice off of the Duke's.
