In Shadow the Hedgehog is Shadow an android

No the Shadow the Hedgehog in all games, is the real Shadow. Though it has been speculated that he is an android, storylines and in-game dialogue show that Shadow is indeed the real Shadow. For example, when fighting the Final Boss in Shadow the Hedgehog, leaving the battle for about 7-10 minutes, Eggman will confess that while Shadow was falling from the Space Colony Ark, Eggman sent a robot out to rescue him, that he hadn't died, but the atmospheric pressure caused him to get amnesia. He was then placed in statis and Eggman cloned him, starting the theory that Shadow was an android.
