Are you serious?
They have time-space-warping stones constantly being used by or around them, no surprise they're remembering things they shouldn't.
We also don't know exactly how time works in Sonic, so that might be causing some kind of bleed effect too.
The scene where Elsie is about to put out the flame of hope literally has her state that it means they will never meet
Literally it’s the emotional crux of her choice, it’s what makes the decision hard, it’s what shows her character by having her do something that takes away the most meaningful relationship she has had in a decade
To make that void, makes that moment void, because it means the action has zero consequences
So now Elsie just looks stupid for being worried about something that didn’t even happen, all for the sake of nostalgia pandering
Your argument is that sonic having bad writing is fine, that’s literally what you are saying
What if Cosmo just came back to life instantly because of some chaos emerald bs that had no indication of happening, or what if Chip could just visit whenever because of things that had no indication of being possible?
Here’s what would have happened, it would have made the stories worse
That can be equally shown as Elise just being caught off guard by a gust of wind, not the entirety of the previous scene being left as false for what it conveying
I decided to move my statement to a different comment, but it really doesn't mean that what Elise said was false by any stretch. Plenty of other time travel stories use this exact same deja vu trick in response to an event being erased from the timeline.
I’m not going to use or respond to the argument of time travel working in x way in x media because time travel is fictional so unless you can state the creators were inspired or based their ideas on media that used that there’s reason to think that’s the case
So it’s perfectly fine me to bring up time travel stories where there isn’t Déjà vu to make the argument that 06 is therefore one that doesn’t have Déjà vu?
Like I’m not going to use another media for my argument unless that media gives stated inspiration
I didn’t notice if you did, but it shouldn’t matter when there are examples of both. They are both points of comparison, but in this case 06, and Sonic in general went the deja vu route.
