it probably is if it's saying "endorsed by sonic team" or "made by sonic team" or something like that, but if it's not like that then it might be fine, however be careful when using it

You should always credit your assets, even official ones. Like if you're using character designs or sprites from Sonic Team or DIMPS.

Technically our use of any of these trademarked and copyrighted images is never legal. Sega just doesn't do anything about it because they seem to like the publicity. Out of courtesy, you could just put "original game by" above the Sonic Team logo, so its not as though you're implying they worked with you on it.

Nintendo has a very different way of doing things, however. They were nice enough to let them (mostly) finish AM2R before sending the cease and desist paperwork.
