**Wave the Swallow**, 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 purple swallow and the Babylon Rogues' cur. tech expert.

While also Team Babylon's mech. expert, she is the daughter of the technical and mechanical expert of the previous generation of Babylon Rogues, which she takes after, and takes care of her groups' customized Extreme Gears.

Because of her knowledge on Extreme Gear, Wave is brimming with self-confidence and can be a bit of a trash-talker and highly critical of others' work with Extreme Gear. She knows responsibility, taking charge whenever Jet can't get done.

She hates thick-headed or stupid people, and she tends to give advice only she can understand. Regardless, Wave is level-headed and serves as the voice of reason in the team, though she is often mistreated by the other members.

"*No one can tune a Gear the way I can!*"

—Wave, to Storm.

### Biography

This mechanical-gifted member of the Babylon Rogues is a genius and Extreme Gear is her specialty. Her father, in fact, was the mechanic for the previous generation of Babylon Rogues. While Tails and Dr. Eggman are talented, Wave's skills are far superior.

### Physical Appearance

Wave is a babylonian swallow with light and dark purple feathers that cover her body and head. Her hair is styled like a pair of long braids. On her arms near her wrists are light purple fire-like markings. She has a golden-curved beak, light purple eyelids, cobalt blue eyes, and two tail feathers.

For attire, she wears a white kerchief, white gloves that possess visible lining with golden bracelets and red lining, a white tube top that reveals her stomach, and dark purple flare-designed white trousers. She also wears red boots with white accents and gray soles, a white necklace with a red utility gem, and gray sunglasses with gold lenses.

* Skin Color: Golden (Beak)
* Eye Color: Cobalt blue
* Age: 18
* Birthday: Not Known
* Height: 110 cm (3' 7")
* Weight: Not Known

## Personality

Because of her knowledge, Wave is brimming with self-confidence. She is very arrogant about her expertise at Extreme Gear, certain that no one can match her in this field. She is a super-achiever and holds very high standards for how Extreme Gear should be and never hesitates to dismiss others' Extreme Gear as 'junk'. She takes great pride in her skills and is passionate about her profession, becoming indignant when someone insults or blames her work for their own failures.

She has a keen eye for detail, takes notice of everything, and hates thick-headed and stupid people. Also, she tends to give advice using terminology understandable to only herself and not others. Naturally, this causes tension and frustration between her and others like Jet. Wave often refuses to admit others' talents with Extreme Gear mechanics due to her dislike of anyone who could rival her.

She often holds back on her compliments and will either continue to dismiss or deny that the person has any skill at all to cover up any sense of generous gesture she may hold. In the cases she does give compliments, she will disguise them as insults. It is only in the rarest of cases that Wave gives well-meant compliments. While generally fun-loving like the rest of the Babylon Rogues, Wave is very level-headed and serves as the voice of reason amongst her group, often lecturing Jet and Storm of their responsibilities.

Because of her teammates' unreliability, Wave believes that she has to take charge of the team if anything is to get done. She is very serious on a job, staying dedicated to the task at hand, and insists on no lack of dedication from her companions. When things do not go as planned, however, she tends to get impatient. Also, she can be quite stubborn and obstinate when making a decision. Wave is usually rude, with a sly attitude and snide sense of humor.

Being the most outgoing of the Babylon Rogues, Wave has no problem insulting others and mocking their Extreme Gear. She will also take compliments or conversations from others and twist them around so that she can throw them back at others as a snide comment. Wave also finds amusement in insulting and degrading her opponents' skills during races.

When it comes to accomplishing her teams' goal, Wave is perfectly willing to cheat in official competitions, such as sabotaging Sonic's Extreme Gear in *Sonic Riders* and *Sonic Free Riders*, even without Jet knowing it. Likewise, she will gladly take whatever beneficial chance that might present itself, such as taking the Key to Babylon Garden on behalf of Jet when Sonic returned it despite Jet refusing to accept it.

Wave also has a great deal of greedy love for money and treasure, and her primary motive in life is to acquire as much wealth as possible. This was her sole reason for willingly competing in the World Grand Prix in *Sonic Riders* and *Sonic Free Riders*.

## Abilities and Powers

Like many other characters in the series, Wave is able to move around at super speeds on foot, enough to reach velocities well above 100 "Speed". Wave possesses as well above average acrobatic skills and agility, enough to pull off advanced tricks and movements while in mid-air.

Also, though Wave is not as strong or durable as people like Storm, she is shown to have some degree of physical endurance, as shown when she was attacked by SCR-HD, who knocked her over and slightly injured her, but otherwise emerged unharmed. As the brains of the Babylon Rogues and their top mechanic, Wave is an engineering genius.

Described as a really brilliant mecha mechanic, Wave is a superb mechanic who is capable of everything from modifying the group's Extreme Gears to repairing the rogues' airship. However, while she is capable of fixing many things, Extreme Gear is her specialty. Gifted in the craft of Extreme Gear mechanics, she has advanced mechanical knowledge and experience about tuning, building, and the workings of Extreme Gear that surpasses both Tails and Dr. Eggman in this area.

According to herself, no one else can tune an Extreme Gear the way she can. Besides Extreme Gear and mechanics, Wave is also well-versed in other types of technologies and shows well-above general understanding of the functions and operations of different technologies, such as microchip-sized diaries, MeteorTech's signal network, explosives, and even the Babylonians' technology.

Additionally, Wave is quite intelligent in the field of science and physics, being able to analyze and understand the scientific concepts of the Arks of the Cosmos. She is as well a great scholar. Not only can she analyze information or plot strategy better than anyone else on her team, but she has also shown knowledge about how to decipher the ancient texts written by the Babylonians and is even capable of analyzing unknown treasures in her spare time.

As a member of the Babylon Rouges, Wave is a professional Extreme Gear rider, enough to be acknowledged as a wind master on a legendary level. In fact, Wave is one of the best Extreme Gear riders in the world—she can move expertly at high speeds, perform complex and impressive tricks while in midair, and engage in combat with other Extreme Gear riders while maintaining precision and control. She is also able to ride her Extreme Gear through mid-air with great accuracy and control.

In addition to the above, Wave is a talented and professional thief. Having pulled off successful heists and escaped capture from the authorities, Wave is a skilled thief and talented with slight of hand. Additionally, Wave is skilled at utilizing various types of gadgets and tools efficiently in combat, ranging from giant wrenches or spanners to small explosives that she plants on her opponents.

### Weaknesses

Wave can be a bit of snob, and, with the exception of Jet, she looks down on nearly everybody else.

### Equipment

Wave's choice of equipment is her Type-W. The Type-W is a Board type Extreme Gear, constructed by Wave herself for flight at high altitudes. Thanks to Wave's Extreme Gear mechanics expertise, the Type-W is a highly advanced piece of technology with an ultra-compact body that contains high-standard mechanics.

In combat, Wave's preferred choice of weapon is a large wrench or spanner that she uses skillfully as a club in melee combat. However, she also uses small packs of dynamite and other explosives that she plants on her opponents and then detonates. Also, the red gem attached to Wave's necklace doubles as a utility device that is capable of loading data, projecting holographs, and functioning as an alarm clock.

## History

### Past

Wave was born into the Babylon clan of thieves known as the Babylon Rogues. She is a descendant of the Babylonians, an alien race that stranded on Mobius in ancient times and became a legendary band of thieves which continued their legacy of thieving for generations.

During her early life, Wave was given her skills by her father. At some point, she became a member of the Babylon Rogues and was joined by Jet and Storm. Together, the three of them formed the newest generation of Babylon Rogues and continued their clan's legacy of theft, with Wave serving as the team's technological genius and Extreme Gear mechanic.

During her career as a member Babylon Rogues, Wave and her team engaged in a number of unknown criminal activities and managed to build up an infamous reputation.
