Potato Pushers

Potato Pushers is a Sonic Fanon animated series based on Sega/Sonic Team’s Sonic the Hedgehog video game series, along with some other games. It is also a bit of an adaptation to the Sonic series.
==Premise==
This show takes place in the war happening on a ficticous planet called Mobius. Dr. Ivo Robotnik and his goons have called an all out war on Sonic and his friends in South Island. The two groups are so engulfed in their war that they are completley unaware of the goings on anywhere besides South Island. An evil mastermind, nicknamed Doctor Potato, saw this and took advantage of it. Kidnapping many mobians and humans, he made his own loyal army by brainwashing his hostages. He eventually finds a way to take over all but one place on the entire planet, some of them seriously damaged. Potato becomes the supreme ruler of all of these places, being called Overlord Potato. He completley changed the lives of every person on the planet not on South Island. At first, nobody thought of doing anything about this. Nobody thought they were powerful enough. Nobody even thought of trying to stop things from getting worse. But this is just at first....
One day, according to a certain group of people, this new government took things too far. To show how powerful the government started kidnapping childreen and teenagers just for the heck of it. No brainwashing, no minionizing, just kidnapping and keeping them in terrible positions. One of the people that Potato's goons kidnapped was Ginger McMuffin, somebody friends to lots of people. But for four people, it was too much. So Maxie Flippercorn formed a group with her brothers and her best guy friend, whose sister is Ginger. Because there was no freedom of speech, forming groups without government consent, or of press, the four had to meet underground. At first, they would just complain and talk about how horrible the government has gotten. But then Max thought of fighting back against Potato and his followers. At first, Maxie, Moe, and Cliff thought this idea was absurd. But after they let it sink in, they all agreed. They also agreed that they needed more help.
The four of them each told people that they highly trush to come to the second meeting. The next day, Sadie, Kaiko, Shawn, and Lily came to the meeting. Tension began to rise, but Cliff kept the members under control long enough to start planning a strategy to help people. Of course, these people have a lot to learn and a long ways to go before they can save the world. But after deciding on the name the "Potato Pushers," their journey to help get Mobius back to the way it should be began.
===Main Setting===
*South Island: A tropical island located in Mobius' equivalent of the Pacific Ocean and a frequent target for Robotnik.
*Westside Island: (nicknamed the "Island of Illusions") was a very peaceful place until Robotnik got his hands on it. When he backed off and focused on South Island, things started to get better here. However, Potato showed up and screwed with things more.
**Ice Cap Zone: An island of tundra and icecaps. The land is almost in a year-round winter season and is home to quite a few arctic Mobians, along with goons that are trained to survive in extreme weather. However, most don't live in this zone; only a few can handle the icy chill of the icecaps.
**Marble Garden Zone: A shelter to many tropical Mobians. There are ruins of a marble city hidden somewhere in the zone, but people have a hard time finding with roped bridges and passageways made of dirt and placed layer over layer leading the way through the jungle. The garden seems to change its greenery in some way every single day, making it almost impossible to successfully navigate it. Only the native inhabitants know all the best routes through their precious gardens.
**Sandopolis Zone: Seems to be a barren wasteland of a desert at first, but turns out to have lots of oases. People love visiting the oases fore the natural beauty and for the fact that Potato hasn't gone near the area at all. Dillard the Dunnart and Nack the Weasel reside in this zone.
**Casino Night Zone: This zone is basically a gigantic casino. It is always filled with people who love to gamble. However, it is also always filled with Potato's goons who are looking to scout other goons. It's also rumoured that all of the games here are rigged so that Potato's government only gets money.
*Angel Island: A floating sub-continent that drifts high in the air; so far up that even the clouds hide it from being detected. Angel Island is where the last remaining Echidnas reside and is the home of the Master Emerald, which keeps the continent suspended in the sky. The Emerald is protected by Knuckles the Echidna, an inhabitant of the island and sole surviving descendant of Patchamac. Because clouds block it, Knuckles guards it, and many other little details, this island has been proven to be very difficult to find. In fact, it is one of the few places Potato hasn't touched, which even emphasizes how hidden it is. People say that it isn't even real, but that just might be proven wrong soon....
*The Darklands: A very low-tech, dark cuntry that has Potatoland inside it. Only one or two people have been there and out without being minionized. It is rumoured that the deeper you go into the Darklands, the farther into the past things seem to be. It's even rumoured that if you go to the very heart of the Darklands, you can find the last of dinosaurs!
**Potatoland: Residence of Overlord Potato. Looks like an amusement park on the outside. This is where goons train to handle being in certain areas. The seemingly theme park rides are actually torture devices.
*Toonada: Only country besides South Island and Angel Island that Potato hadn't damaged.
**Central Ground: Capital of Toonada and of Central Toonada. People here are generally almost completley adjusted top the changes Potato has made and don't have the slightest care in the world.
**St. Rod: Capital of Docks. Very tropical and great for fishing. This area is filled with fishermen, and also with Potato's minions, scouting fishermen to fish for Potato's government and make him money.
**Daisy Gardens: Capital of Daisitoba. Has the most of Potato's goons in the entire country, and also filled with beautiful flowers and other greenery. This city is rumored to have a lasting effect on Potato's goons if they go through the entire bush maze, clearing their mind of any mind control. This is where Lily lives.
**Melodyland: Capital of Mellow Dee. Has highly trained Potato minions all over the city, However, it is a very quiet area, so minions mostly come here to hang out and have dance parties. This is where Sadie lives.
**Frostbite: Capital of Brrrgh. Coldest and most mountainest city in Toonada next to Chipdale. Potato's minions are also trained for the extreme weather here, but Toonadians and some Mobians seem to have no trouble staying here with no training.
**Drowsycot: Capital of Dreamland Bay. It's always dark here, so Potato's minions that have night-vision goggles come here. However, the minions are the only people who have trouble seeing here, most likely having to do with the brainwashing process. This city has the most minions besides Daisy Gardens, and is also filled with the most dangerous goons and Sprocket Baddies.
