An interview with Variety that went out later in the day later confirmed what the plot of the movie is, as it is meant to be watched after Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and the third installment. Supposedly, the plot is supposed to revolve around the doofus character Wade, who is taught by Knuckles how to be a true Echidna warrior. This has caused people to guess at jokes the series will make, with Twitter[3] user @Ovirtuous predicting the entire series will be a series of obvious jokes going over the character's heads (shown below).
