It was a big hint that Charles Xavier saw Gambit and not Magneto
Xavier feels the fall of Genosha (and all the lives lost)
at the end of X-Men ’97 Episode six finds Professor Xavier in his classic teacher role, trying to convince the Shi’a to change their imperialist principles. Xavier incorporated multiple Shia ideas into his own, and his lessons were interrupted by the fall of Genosha. Despite taking place on Earth, Xavier clearly sensed that Genosha’s death toll at the hands of the Wild Sentinels was extremely high. To do this, a vision of Gambit appeared before Xavier. Remy LeBeau dies while destroying the Sentinels, and his murder is confirmed when his massive form transforms into a skeleton (to the Professor’s horror), reflecting the countless corpses sitting below.
On the one hand, it makes sense that as Xavier senses the tragedy unfolding on Earth, the death of an X-Men is the one that’s most prominent in his mind. After all, he does consider the mutant heroes his children.However, it can also be said have Magneto is actually dead, as he appeared in Genosha X-Men ’97 In episode five, one can assume that Xavier’s oldest and dearest will be on his mind and most prominent.
A Xavier line adds to theories that Magneto survived
“I want to remember him”
An earlier quote from the Professor supports the idea that the real Magneto’s death is more important to Xavier. X-Men ’97 Episode 6. In a key sequence, Xavier needs to decide whether to give up his memories of Earth and the X-Men in favor of Lilandra’s side ruling. During this time, he spoke with Gladiator, leader of the Shi’ar Imperial Guard, who reminded the professor of his old friend Magneto.
If the Master of Magnetism is indeed killed, the first thing Xavier might feel is Magneto’s death.
Confirming that he “wants to remember” Magneto, and confirming that before all the death the Professor felt, Erik Lensherr was specifically on his mind. To that end, this reinforces the idea that if the Master of Magnetism was actually killed by Genosha’s Wild Sentinels, the first thing Xavier would have felt was Magneto’s death. Instead, it stands to reason that Magneto is still alive, and there are some strong theories as to how he survived the Wild Sentinels’ devastating energy attack.

How Magneto Survived X-Men 97
Did the leech save the Master of Magnetism?
First and foremost, the original comic The Fall of Kenosha, which appeared in Grant Morrison and Frank Quiet’s comics New X-Men, featured Magneto’s apparent death, only to discover that it was his followers who saved him.Therefore, the same situation may also occur in X-Men ’97. The Wild Sentinels did their best to protect the Morlocks, eventually stopping firing their energy beams and confirming that the “Omega-level threat” had been neutralized.
Wild Sentinel provides hinted confirmation that Magneto has been killed. However, it’s worth noting that Leach is in the arms of Magneto, a mutant capable of neutralizing the powers of other mutants.This would explain the Sentinels’ scans, but also opens the door for Magneto to be saved by the Morlocks, which could be revealed in a future episode X-Men ’97, Xavier saw Gambit instead of Eric in the latest episode, which certainly supports this idea.
