How Do The Rings In The Sonic Movies Work?

How do the rings in the sonic movies work?

The rings work as portals once you throw them and think about wherever you want to go pretty simple and straightforward

But they seem very easy to get

long claw, tails, and knuckles all had rings to travel to different worlds

Not to mention in the knuckles show G.U.N. was shown to have the rings under their possession

I would’ve expected the rings to have exclusive to planet mobian in the movies

And You can chalk this up as G.U.N. retrieved them from the snow in the Himalayas

But then how did sonic, tails, and knuckles get more in the third movie

I doubt that G.U.N. Would given them some rings especially if they thought Sonic had a chance to catch shadow from the first encounter

So how did they get more rings

The rings have to be pretty easy to make considering they are one use only

I feel like the rings have a connection to the master emerald with how they generate the portals

I couldn’t find sonic movie gifs with the master emerald

tapping into the master emerald energy as a power source

A lot of this stuff is just thoughts I have about how the rings might work I don’t if has been any lore that had been confirmed by the movies creators so please take this as grain of salt
