Emerl is a supporting character from the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, making his debut in Sonic Battle. 
He is a powerful Gizoid created thousands of years ago by an ancient culture known as the Fourth Great Civilization.
==Story==
===Sonic Battle===
During Tails' episode in Sonic Battle, the Central City Lab computer reports that Emerl was initially found amongst "ancient ruins" - and subsequently plucked out of a storage warehouse by Professor Gerald Robotnik (according to his journal). On the Space Colony ARK 50 years ago, the Professor proceeded to experiment with Emerl, at around the same time he was working on Project Shadow. Gerald's grandson, Doctor Eggman, later rediscovered the robot and took him in the hopes of using him to rule the world, but tosses him aside when he finds no use for him. Sonic the Hedgehog finds him on a beach and he and his friends teach him how to fight.
At the end of the game, Emerl faces off against Dr. Eggman, who manages to corrupt his entire data to make him turn against Sonic and everyone else. Emerl goes berserk and attacks Eggman, and break the Emeralds. Sonic is left with no choice, but to fight Emerl in hopes of getting him back to normal, but unfortunately, he gets destroyed in the process, but lives as a spirit as part of the Emerald shards. Tails then asks Sonic if they'll ever see Emerl again, with Sonic assuring him that they will someday.
===Sonic Advance 3===
It is revealed that Dr. Eggman used Emerl's data to construct his own revised version of the robot called G-merl.
===Sonic X Shadow Generations: Dark Beginnings===

===Sonic X===
In the television series Sonic X, Emerl, known as "ML" in the English dub, is a robot who learns abilities by copying those Sonic and co. use. Emerl later goes insane after absorbing the red Chaos Emerald, and is brought down by Cream the Rabbit.

==Trivia==
*Writer Ken Penders filed a lawsuit against Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood, accusing the developers for taking concepts he wrote for the Archie Sonic the Hedgehog comics (At the time, Ken Penders was also in lawsuits against Archie and Sega for usage of his work). As a result of these lawsuits, the events of the game became non-canon with Emerl and the Gizoids' backstory no longer having any connection with the Nocturnus Clan.
