Rouge the Bat (Game)

## Rouge the Bat

**Rouge the Bat**, is both a fictional character and deuteragonist of the *SKB's* *Sonic Pokémon* series created by Yuji Naka and Ken Sugimori. She is an anthropomorphic white bat, who serves as a part-time spy for the government.

As a part-time government spy for the President of the U.F. and in close association with the G.U.N. military forces, she is trained in combat, stealth and infiltration.

As a professional treasure hunter and jewel thief.

She is also a part-time spy for the President of the U.F. and in close association with G.U.N. military. As a government spy, she is trained in combat, stealth and infiltration, and possesses both super-level kicking power and flight ability.

As both world-famous treasure hunter and jewel thief, Rouge has a devoted weakness for jewels, like the Master Emerald and Chaos Emeralds, which she always obsesses about, and would never stop in her own pursuit of jewelry.

Beneath her ditsy exterior though, she is a calculating realist and her motives are always mercenary in nature. Regardless, she is loyal to her closest friends and has more than once helped Sonic and his allies save the world.

She is a competent fighter who possesses super-level kicking power that allows her to battle using mainly leg kicks, especially her signature "Screw Kick", and she can achieve the ability of flight by using her own wings to fly.

Rouge is in short, an enigma, as her motivations are always in question. In truth, she is usually just out for herself. She is smart, sassy, and seductive, and knows how to get what she wants. Once she has a target in mind, she always goes for it, regardless of the costs.

She has a tendency to ignore abstract morality or manners for potential profit; her "feminine charm" makes her appear careless, but she is actually scheming and manipulative.

Additionally, she serves as a part-time spy for the government, and is a competent fighter.

"*I despise anyone who takes jewels from me! All the world's gems are mine to keep!*"

—Rouge, to Knuckles.

## Appearance

### Physical Appearance

Rouge is an mobian bat with white fur, tan skin, teal eyes with eyelashes, and a curvy figure. She has large pointy ears, small fangs, a small black nose on her muzzle with a pink lipstick, a short pointy tail, and a pair of dark purple wings on her back. Only her head appears to have fur, which flares out into six points at the back. Rouge usually wears powder blue eyeshadow and pink lipstick.

Her typical attire consists of a black, skin-tight, strapless unitard with a pink, heart-shaped chestplate with white trim, along with long white gloves and high-heeled boots with pink cuffs. Her boots also have gray soles and feature pink hearts on the toes.

For attire, Blaze wears a purple tailcoat with rose trim at the bottom, a gold collar, and white leggings. She also wears white gloves with fluffy cuffs and rose, high-heeled shoes with gray soles, white stripes and fluffy cuffs, like her gloves.

For the purpose of Extreme Gear racing, Blaze wears a purple zipped catsuit with yellow stripes over the chest, elbows and knee areas, and rose boots with white straps and soles. She also wears white gloves that possess visible lining with pointy cuffs (similar to her standard gloves) and a dark gray band around each wrist.

## Personality

Rouge is a strong-minded female bat with a collected and convivial voice. Nothing short of an enigma, she is a person of many mysteries, always playing an active role on both sides of the truth in many global affairs. Her appeal is very complex, but it is not too far off to describe her as an elusive, mysterious, and mature woman who is true to her desires. To most people, Rouge appears as a brave, ambitious, independent, flirtatious, greedy, calculating narcissist who only thinks about herself and treasure.

In *Generations* she is referred to as a temptress, due to her seductive ways. A gem-enthusiast, Rouge specializes in gem heists and gem-based treasure hunts, and has a unquenchable thirst for gemstones. The latter is due to a certain philosophy of hers: once you get a good gem, you will want a better one. However, a jewel that she cannot actually hold in her hand has no value to her, although a beautiful scenery matching the finest of jewels is equally valuable to her.

Rouge's carefree and playful devil-may-care attitude can be fun to some people, like the easygoing Sonic, or annoying for others, like the gruff Knuckles.

While she may appear ditzy though, Rouge is in truth a cunning, calculative, and pragmatic realist; though she pretends to know nothing, she always manages to get closer to the heart of the matter than anyone else; she shows lax behavior but manages to conduct delicate research; she can be on the enemy's side but then turn into a reliable ally while keeping her eyes on seizing the monetary prizes for herself. Overall, she has a way of taking off a figurative veil to reveal a dramatic new side of herself.

Regardless, this unpredictable and mysterious aspect of Rouge may be her appeal.

### Weaknesses

While not having any physical weaknesses, Rouge's obsession with jewels can distract her. She similarly has a stubborn attitude that, along with her greed, has put her in mortal danger; during the Space Colony ARK incident, her arguing with Knuckles over the ownership of the Master Emerald would have made her fall into a lava pool had he not come to her rescue.

Also, her infiltration skills are not flawless either, as she was discovered by Flying Dog while robbing Prison Island and got imprisoned by Dr. Eggman when she stole the Scepter of Darkness (although she eventually broke herself out in the latter case).

### Equipment

Rouge makes use of different types of personalized mines and bombs. For example, she carries around numerous heart-marked bombs that she can deploy from midair and will detonate when touched by a foreign target. She similarly carries around other kinds of bombs for either combat and demolition. She also makes use of floating mines that are able to guide themselves towards enemies using a simple AI.

During the Neo Metal Sonic incident, she also made use of Dummy Rings.
