I don't consider it canon because I'm not sure where it would fit on the timeline. But I would be happy if POI wasn't canon anyway cuz if it is, it ruins to game for me since it's a pretty terrible DEM game. So yeah with this information among other things proves that Disney Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion is not canon in the regular universe/franchise like if Oswald and Mickey realized they were stronger together during DEM2 which is what a lot ppl who think it's canon believe it takes place after, than wouldn't they do the same in POI? But anyways I believe it's canon in an alternate universe but not in regular Plus Miserabel became good at the end of Castle of Illusion but not only that, if the Castle of Illusion and Miserabel were still here in DEM2: POT, and she was bad like in the alternate timeline, then wouldn't the events of DEM2: POT and DEM: POI take place at the same time?

Yes the Castle of Illusion is in the regular timeline DEM2, however, in the instruction manual for DEM: POI, the castle of illusion is over tomorrow city but in the DEM2: POT map, it's located elsewhere. Now based on the instruction manual, people could make the argument that the Tommorow City projector was broken but it was actually working but it was replaced by the Mad Doctor's ride in DEM2: POT, which proves that theory incorrect. However, it seems more realistically like an alternate version of Disney Epic Mickey 2 where the quakes weren't as bad hence the reason why that quick Wasteland shot doesn't look split in half and according to the the instruction manual, there actually were quakes before POI.

No, it's likely not canon in the regular franchise itself.
