Unknown

**Surge the Tenrec**, is both a fictional character and antagonist of the *SKB's* *Sonic Pokémon* series created by Yuji Naka and Ken Sugimori. She is an anthropomorphic bright green tenrec, as well as the team's leader of Team Circuit.

She was modified with villainous cybernetic enhancements implanted by Dr. Starline and with no memories of her past. She was made for the sole intended purpose of destroying Sonic and replace him as hero of the world.

However, after discovering the secret of her origin, Surge would plan with her teammates, Kitsunami and Thrash and begin seeking revenge on everyone she blames for everything including her own past life been taken away from her.

"*Sucks to be them. 'Cuz I aim to misbehave.*"

—Surge.

## Personality

"*Look, I get you brainy-types like to think of all the angles. But me and that faker boy are simple creatures. I hit him fast, I hit him hard, and I keep **hitting** until he doesn't move anymore.*"

—Surge, to Dr. Starline.
Surge possesses Sonic's indomitable and free spirit, albeit in a twisted and sinister way. She is a roguish speedster with an arrogant, cocky, and hot-tempered disposition, taking great pride in her prowess and bragging at any given opportunity. She is also fearless and bold, rarely showing any form of worry or concern, even in situations that are troublesome or possibly beyond her capabilities. When push comes to shove, however, she tends to give in to anger, causing her to become a more volatile force.

Believing force to be the answer to everything, Surge is convinced that she can defeat any opponent and overcome any obstacle getting in her way with pure strength and speed. She is likewise brutal, somewhat bloodthirsty, and highly aggressive, expressing great eagerness to fight and cause chaos and destruction. When working with Dr. Starline, she would persistently demand to go on missions and even grab him by the collar, threatening him when unable to get her way.

Described as being “not smart”, Surge prefers open conflict over covert plans, no matter how effective the latter might be. Notably, she would willingly abandon a plan focusing on stealth in favor of an open assault, assured that she would be able to defeat any attention she would attract, even while in enemy territory. She is likewise fiercely independent and irreverent to authority, much like Sonic, meaning she prefers to do things her own way.

As such, she is perfectly willing to abandon a well-thought-out plan in favor of following her own whims. Unlike Sonic, however, she shows little to no concern for any negative consequences her roguish behavior may have on herself or others. Despite this, she is willing to listen to others' ideas when she admits that she does not really have much of a plan of her own to proceed with, which makes her more open to suggestions from Kit.

Like Sonic, Surge shows a great deal of attitude when facing off against foes, namely by taunting and mocking them. However, this is out of mean-spirited arrogance and malice as opposed to the carefree playfulness Sonic demonstrates. She is likewise brash, careless, and impatient, which are qualities that stem from her explosive temperament and sense of superiority, unlike Sonic, whose same qualities stem from his positive attitude and confidence.

As such, she is prone to facing everything head-on, making her extremely reckless and dependent on support from Kit (despite what she may believe). Her temperament is most likely influenced by the psychological trauma caused by excessive exposure to hypnosis. She also hates being deceived and will seek out terrible retribution against those who have wronged her, although this is more out of personal vengeance than a sense of justice.

Furthermore, Surge is rather petty, zapping Sonic at the end of her first fight with him just to get the last hit despite his attempt to save her from falling. For all her roughness, Surge has a slightly vulnerable side to her; upon discovering that her current persona was fabricated, she despaired and even shed tears of sadness. However, this sadness would soon pave way for anger and hatred at everyone and drive her to destroy everything, convinced that if she cannot have a past, then others should not be able to have a future, showing herself to be very spiteful.

When the Dynamo Cage caused her to hallucinate Starline talking down to her, she became scared and cried over reliving the trauma Starline caused her, only to stop after being comforted by Kit. Surge also has developed a tendency to doubt herself when plans do not go her way, internally fearing that the world will never stop trying to hurt her and Kit.

Surge has come to the conclusion that the world has abandoned her, or that nothing good had happened in her life since she ended up serving Dr. Starline, which has intensified her goal to destroy everything in her path as part of her revenge on Sonic. Despite her punkish attitude and overall simple-mindedness, Surge does have her moments of insight. She was able to deduce that her own thoughts did not add up to her own understandings and that Starline had something to do with them by realizing that he was in the center of them all.

## Abilities and Powers

Having been modified by Dr. Starline with cybernetic enhancements, Surge possesses a multitude of powers derived from Power Cores, the bio data of Sonic, Shadow, Tails, Neo Metal Sonic, and physical resilience derived from the Metal Virus. As a result of her cybernetic enhancements, combined with electromagnetic propulsion, Surge has the ability to move at super speeds, having claimed to be as fast as light.

Her speed is great enough that she can create a sonic boom and keep up with Sonic. Due to the cellular upgrades provided by the Metal Virus, she also possesses tremendous durability, having withstood an otherwise lethal impact from the Egg Breaker with nothing more than superficial bruises. She is also able to perform the Spin Attack, a technique where she curls into a concussive ball or cutting disk and directs herself at her targets.

With it, Surge can shred or burrow through just about any substance given enough speed, and perform moves like the Spin Dash.

As an offset of her electromagnetic propulsion, Surge has the ability to generate electricity of varying intensity and project it as small lightning bolts or sparks. Notably, she can generate enough electricity to ignite flora and cause various electricity-powered devices to overload. Furthermore, by spinning like a top, she can increase the power of the electricity she generates. She can as well surround herself with an aura of electricity to attack her enemies.

### Weaknesses

As a part of Dr. Starline's precautions to keep Surge's bravado on a leash, Surge has been made highly susceptible to hypnosis in case she goes out of control. As such, she is quick to respond to Starline's commands and lose some of her most recent memories when exposed to Starline's hypnotic devices. However, her memories cannot be completely erased. In addition, over time, she has begun developing a resistance to this effect.

After gaining the Dynamo Cage, due to its amplification of her brain functions, Surge has begun to hallucinate apparitions of Doctor Starline, which criticize her actions and commonly distract her from the task at hand.

### Equipment

Upon obtaining the Dynamo Cage, Surge gained even more power. This manifested as shields, and significantly boosted strength. She also gained much greater control over electricity, allowing her to create large electromagnetic fields, magnetically levitate multiple large objects at once, and even travel as a bolt of lightning as if she were teleporting or flying. Another power added was the ability to absorb Wisps and gain their powers.

When this happens, Surge produces a glow in the color of the absorbed Wisp. When the Dynamo Cage was starting to overload, multiple Wisp colors were shown at the same time. Using these powers, Surge has generated a barrier of cubes around herself using Blue Cube, along with making cube platforms, conjured energy buzz saws to her hands using Pink Spike, float with Green Hover, blasted at high speeds with Orange Rocket, and fired laser beams from her eyes using Cyan Laser.

## History

### Past

Surge, Thrash, and Kit have been in development for a long time as part of Dr. Starline's Operation: Remaster. Originally a regular person, Starline somehow acquired Surge and modified her by implementing cybernetic enhancements using Power Cores and the bio-data of Sonic, Shadow and Tails, as well as giving her physical toughness using the Metal Virus and a new personality and memories using the codes he got from Belle.

Surge in particular was designed for the purpose of destroying Sonic and replacing him as the hero of the world. Surge was then subjected to hypnotic sessions where Starline imprinted her with a fake, yet intense hatred for Sonic. Afterward, Surge and Kit were subjected to hundreds of tests, and when they got fed up, Starline would blot out their memories with hypnosis, which left both Surge and Kit with lasting psychological trauma.

In the end, Surge was left without awareness of her origins, believing only that Starline gave her the powers she had so he could destroy Sonic and change the world.
