Metal Sonic

**Metal Sonic** (メタルソニック, *Metaru Sonikku*), is both a fictional character and antagonist from the *Sonic* series created by Yuji Naka. It is one of the last remaining of the Badnik kind and a robotic doppelganger of Sonic the Hedgehog.

It is also the most famous creation of Dr. Eggman, undoubtedly built as the deadliest creation for the sole purpose of destroying Sonic. However, he is only used for special occasions, and spends the rest of his time stored in a very secure location with his other series.

Modeled with extreme accuracy after Sonic, Metal Sonic not only resembles his template but it can also copy and achieve moves and velocities, having created to match, exceed, and even surpass that of Sonic's abilities.

While mostly serving as one of Eggman's enforcers, it is an intelligent machine with a very dark side. It has been one of the most formidable foes to Sonic and his allies since its inception and has at various points even betrayed Eggman to pursue its own obsessive goals.

**Neo Metal Sonic** (ネオメタルソニック, *Neo Metaru Sonikku*), is an upgraded and more advanced state of itself that Metal Sonic had assumed when it first took over the Eggman Empire, while he copied the other teams' data.

In this form, Metal Sonic is able to shapeshift, has the ability to shoot lightning bolts from his hand, limitless stamina and enhanced durability, and the ability to fly. He is also able to copy the bio-data of others, allowing him to gain other people's abilities and skills.
