The Mayan City of Tikal
I've noticed that no one has said anything about the fact that the Mayan City of Tikal is obviously used as inspiration for Sonic Adventure's lost world. I'm 100% sure of this and thought I should just let people know. It has the same architectural structure and everything! Google it peeps https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q ... 5266,d.cGw I also think there should be a page on this lol.

Yes it is. Some of the members of Sonic Team actually traveled to the place, among many other locations, for the development of the game.
It's pretty cool if you ask me. But this seems more like it's related to Sonic Adventure as a whole, and not the chao included.

I thought it was fairly common knowledge that Sonic Team was inspired by Central and South American ruins for Sonic Adventure. Didn't know Tikal was named for some of those ruins though.
