In Sonic 06, Sonic's soul was brought back via the Chaos Emeralds to turn Base Sonic into Super Sonic then Super Sonic passed some of his powers onto Shadow and Silver so they can go Super.

It is assumed that if Super Sonic can resist Soul Manipulation via the Chaos Emeralds then Super Shadow and Super Silver can do the same. I don't recall Base Shadow resisting Soul Manipulation.

So the power of the Chaos Emeralds that can bring back a soul to a body is powerful enough to protect it from Soul Manipulation.
