Metal Sonic (Game)

## Metal Sonic

* Current
* Younger

**Metal Sonic**, is both a fictional character and antagonist of the *SKB's* *Sonic Pokémon* series created by Yuji Naka and Ken Sugimori. It is an evil, ultra-high performance, very advanced Badnik version of Sonic created by Dr. Eggman.

It was designed as a secret weapon for the sole purpose of destroying Sonic. The brainchild of Eggman, it is by far his greatest creation and one of his *magnum opuses*.

Modeled with extreme accuracy after Sonic, it not only resembles his template, but can also imitate his moves and achieve speeds matching and even exceeding Sonic's.

First deployed during the Little Planet incident, Metal Sonic confronted Sonic in battle and lost, though he would repeatedly return to challenge Sonic and his allies as Eggman's "too-sharp sword".

While usually serving as Eggman's obedient enforcer, it is an intelligent robot with a very dark side.

A cold-hearted, aggressive, and ruthless killer, he is obsessed with proving his superiority to Sonic and eliminating him for good to the point where he has rebelled against Eggman more than once to achieve his goal.

However, he always fails in the end, only to later return more powerful than before. To this day, Metal Sonic remains one of Sonic's most dangerous foes.

"*I will battle you as many times as it is necessary.*"

—Metal Sonic.

### Biography

He can mimic Sonic's spin dash and homing attack, and thanks to the jet engine in his torso, he can beat Sonic's acceleration and equal Sonic's speed! He has extra abilities however, due to his mechanoid form. These include his Ring Spark Field, telescopic limbs, and a forcefield known as the Black Shield.

### Physical Appearance

Metal Sonic was created in the image of Sonic and is thus mostly built of blue metal. He has a yellow circular depression in his chest with a black center, mirroring the peach skin on Sonic's chest. His head has metal fins resembling Sonic's quills and a pair of triangular "ears." Metal Sonic has a muzzle, shoulder plates, upper arms, legs, and fingers made out of silvery metal. His palms are black, while the backs of his hands are square yellow plates.

His forearms and lower legs are blue metal like his head and torso, and he has red feet with white stripes designed to resemble Sonic's shoes. To simulate the hedgehog's eyes, he has monitors with cameras behind them, giving them a red sclera.

#### Present

Following the Neo Metal Sonic incident, Metal Sonic received a slight update in design which made him taller and gave him a more ellipsoid torso. He also gained more detailed hands, a brilliant blue paint job, joints on his arms and legs, and sharper eyeholes.

## Personality

Despite being built to match Sonic in all aspects, Metal Sonic is the exact opposite of its organic counterpart in terms of personality. Rather than fun-loving, adventurous, and carefree, Metal Sonic is a cold, dark, aggressive, mysterious and outwardly emotionless machine with a large superiority complex. Early on though, it had a habit of mimicking Sonic's gestures, perhaps in a mocking manner. Most of the time, Metal Sonic is Dr. Eggman's docile and completely obedient enforcer.

In addition to being programmed to serve Eggman, Metal Sonic carries only one goal in mind: destroy Sonic using abilities superior to his. However, it is far from being another mindless Badnik. In fact, Metal Sonic is an intelligent and calculative machine thanks to an AI chip given to him by Eggman. Efficient and to the point, it is cunning and intelligent, and knows how to manipulate its opponents and take advantage of their weaknesses but has also displayed somewhat of a sense of honor.

Also, in contrast to his emotionless demeanor, it is able to feel emotions and carries a deep capability for vengeance. These traits together have allowed Metal Sonic to fuel its own dark goals of destruction and domination. In battle, Metal Sonic is likewise machine-like in execution and coldly serious. Metal Sonic is a killer in every sense of the definition. While facing an opponent, Metal Sonic is very calculative and systematic, as what one might expect of a mechanical intelligence like itself.

Analytic in his approach, it takes into account his strength and weaknesses in order to optimize its performances. However, its computerized mind can also be considered a weakness of it, as it makes Metal Sonic inflexible and unable to anticipate the creativity and unpredictability of organic creatures, which causes its thoughts to be temporarily fragmented in such instances. Metal Sonic's most dominating trait and *raison d'être* is its hatred and obsession with defeating Sonic.

Having been programmed for the sole purpose of destroying Sonic using abilities superior to his, Metal Sonic is obsessed with the conviction that it is better than Sonic in every way, which it assumes is logical since it possesses the best performance, a tireless body, and plenty of other factors that should make him unbeatable. It has even taken this logic further with the belief that its body was designed in Sonic's likeness because it was the best design to defeat him with.

Its greatest desire is therefore to overthrow the real Sonic and defeat him once and for all. However, since it has never been able to defeat Sonic, it finds himself caught in a logical paradox, unable to figure out a way to defeat Sonic despite possessing all the means to achieve this.

While he is usually another one of Dr. Eggman's robotic slaves, Metal Sonic is also highly sentient for a mechanical being, with his intelligence even being capable of evolving; during the Neo Metal Sonic incident, pushed forward by a strong will and ambition for revenge, his AI chip led to him becoming self-aware, thereby allowing his ego to take control of himself and prompting him to upgrade his body and take control of the Eggman Empire.

At this peak of its newly acquired independence, Metal Sonic showed itself as a ruthless, controlling, arrogant and cunning rogue with no regard for others. Its sense of superiority was likewise elevated as it became self-aware, which led it to becoming a megalomaniac and seeing itself as the master of all living things. To this end, it sought to conquer the world and establish a robot kingdom, with Metal Sonic ruling the world as its most supreme being.

However, Metal Sonic's superiority complex, combined with its newfound ego, also made it descend into madness, causing it to adopt the twisted belief that it was the real Sonic, and that the original Sonic was its "loathsome copy". After Metal Sonic was defeated by Team Sonic though, Eggman turned it back into a docile battle mech.

Even so, Metal Sonic's uncanny atmosphere and ability to act independently and upset the plans of its creator for its own desires was still there; during the second World Grand Prix, Metal Sonic disguised itself as Team Dark's E-10000B, even without Dr. Eggman's knowledge, and stole the doctor's data to beat Sonic in Extreme Gear racing.

Despite its many defeats and having its beliefs shaken though, Metal Sonic never gives up and will always pursue its goals with relentless determination and take any means necessary to achieve them, no matter how many setbacks it has to go through. Notably, it sees even its defeats as ways to improve itself for its next confrontation, as they provide it with data that it can reanalyze and use to upgrade itself.

## Abilities and Powers

Modeled with extreme accuracy after Sonic, Metal Sonic was made to copy Sonic's every ability and is no less fast nor less powerful than its organic template. Being Dr. Eggman's most powerful weapon against Sonic, Metal Sonic is able to go toe-to-toe with its template in both battle and other fields, making it one of Dr. Eggman's most powerful and skilled creations. In fact, it has been credited as the strongest robot invented by Eggman in order to defeat Sonic.

Furthermore, it is constantly improving itself, returning from each battle and defeat faster and more powerful than before. Metal Sonic shares Sonic's super speed, which it can achieve using a powerful jet engine-based propulsion system. With this system, Metal Sonic is able to beat Sonic's acceleration, who can instantly accelerate to the speed of sound, and equal Sonic's speed; on a few occasions, Metal Sonic has even been able to surpass the speed of Sonic, whose highest known top speed is Mach 5.

Even then, Metal Sonic can take his speed even further. By overloading his circuits, Metal Sonic is able to quadruple his speed for a limited time. Using certain techniques, he can even achieve light-speed momentarily. In addition, Metal Sonic also has Sonic's astounding kineticism, precision and reaction time to match his speed. He has profound acrobatic skills and agility, along with enhanced reflexes that lets him avoid any incoming obstacles with precise and delicate movements.

Metal Sonic has both impressive durability and physical strength. His frame consists of monocoque titanium that makes him highly resistant to damage, and he has enough strength to tear his own frame apart by hand. In addition, Metal Sonic comes equipped with several extra abilities due to his mechanoid form.

These include a plasma pulse laser that he can fire from the intake on his stomach, telescopically extendable limbs, the ability to generate a seemingly impenetrable force-field, and sufficiently sharp claws.

Metal Sonic can even channel internal radioactive force within him to produce powerful energy surges, and, when accelerating to maximum speed, surround himself in an energy field that lets him penetrate any substance caught in his path. Plus, by utilizing his jet engine, Metal Sonic can achieve high-speed flight in any environment; even in a damaged state, he was once capable of interplanetary travel from Little Planet to Mobius.

Metal Sonic's arguably most impressive skill is his ability to replicate the abilities and skills of others. By scanning and copying another being's life data, be it either robots or organic creatures, Metal Sonic can immediately and flawlessly mimic other people's skills and abilities, such as chaos powers, ESP, super strength, invisibility, etc.

This makes Metal Sonic's skillset near-indefinite. Once, Metal Sonic also demonstrated the ability to shape-shift. As a result, he can cause himself to look and sound like an exact duplicate of any lifeform or robot, wearing virtually any kind of clothing, such as when he posed as Sonic when he kidnapped Froggy and Chocola. Being a robotic clone of Sonic, Metal Sonic can imitate several of Sonic's signature techniques.

The most prominent of these include Sonic's core offensive maneuver: the Spin Attack, a technique where he curls into a concussive ball or cutting disk and directs himself at his targets. With it, Metal Sonic can shred or burrow through just about any substance given enough speed. Highly adept in Sonic's usage of this technique, Metal Sonic can utilize several variants of the Spin Attack for both ground- and aerial maneuvers, including the Spin Dash, Spin Jump, Homing Attack and the Light Speed Attack.

Also, due to being modeled after Sonic, Metal Sonic has the ability to predict Sonic's moves. As seen during Dodon Pa's Grand Prix, Metal Sonic also has excellent skills when it comes to driving and racing in race cars like the Formula M. During the second part of the Death Egg mk.II incident, he was also able to control the Metal Carrier with no problem.

Metal Sonic also comes equipped with a Chaos Emerald radar, which he can view both externally through projectable holograms or internally. He can also harness chaos energy to empower himself. By using all seven Chaos Emeralds he obtains an extreme power up that grants him a golden aura and yellow eyes. This power-up gives him greatly increased strength and speed, enough to match the combined forces of Sonic, Tails, Mighty and Ray, although his power and durability were not as extreme as those displayed by a super transformation.

### Transformations

#### Metal Sonic Kai

*Main article:* *Metal Sonic Kai*
By harnessing the energy of a Dark Ring, Metal Sonic can transform into **Metal Sonic Kai**. In this state, he is much larger and his body turns red. While most of his abilities are unknown, it is known that he is able to perform a much stronger version of the Plasma Pulse Attack from his chest.

#### Giga Metal

*Main article:* *Giga Metal*
By using the Phantom Ruby, Metal Sonic is able to become **Giga Metal**. In this form, he transforms into a huge, mechanical monster of enormous size. As Giga Metal, he possesses greater strength and is capable of deploying time bombs and emitting a large laser from his mouth. Other than that, Metal Sonic's speed is slightly reduced in this state, even though he can still catch up with Sonic.

His weak point, however, is the Phantom Ruby stored in his chest; should the ruby be removed from its compartment, Metal Sonic will return to his original form, talking severe damage in the process.

#### Neo Metal Sonic

*Main article:* *Neo Metal Sonic*
Metal Sonic assumed the form of **Neo Metal Sonic** for the majority of *Black & White Heroes* while he copied the other teams' data. While most of Neo Metal Sonic's abilities remain unknown, he is known to be able to shape-shift and has the ability to shoot lightning bolts from his hand.

##### Metal Madness

*Main article:* *Metal Madness*
Using the data from Team Sonic, Team Rose, Team Dark, Team Chaotix and Chaos, and as well as parts of Eggman's other machines, Neo Metal Sonic can transform himself into a super powerful version of himself called **Metal Madness**. In this form, Metal Sonic possesses a flamethrower, missile launchers, a whip-like tail with spikes, and claws that can shoot spikes and crystals.

In this state, he is so powerful that even with the seven Chaos Emeralds, the chances of beating him were slim.

##### Metal Overlord

*Main article:* *Metal Overlord*
After completing his transformation as Metal Madness, Metal Sonic became **Metal Overlord**. In this form, he sprouts wings, thus gaining the power of flight. He also gains the ability to use Chaos Control. In this form, he becomes so powerful that even Super State users cannot harm him directly. His attacks are strong enough to stun Super State users, but not enough to penetrate their invulnerability.

#### Color Powers

*Main article:* *Color Power*
By harnessing different variants of Hyper-go-on from Wisps, Metal Sonic can use specific **Color Powers** to transform into a certain form, such as a drill, a laser, or even an asteroid, each one possessing its own unique abilities. So far, Metal Sonic has been able to transform into the Cyan Laser, Yellow Drill, and Indigo Asteroid. However, these transformations require a steady supply of Hyper-go-on to be maintained.

In case the Wisp will not cooperate with him, Metal Sonic can have a Wisp Capsule installed into him that lets him forcefully extract Hyper-go-on from Wisps until they turn into Nega-Wisps.

### Weaknesses

Despite claiming to have no weaknesses, Metal Sonic has a few design flaws, with a number of his own techniques being detrimental to his internal systems. His Ring Spark Field for example uses so much energy that it deceases his mobility. There is also the V. Maximum Overdrive Attack, which fries his circuity from the overloading process and can possibly destroy him if used for too long. Typically though, Metal Sonic's body just cannot handle the raw speeds he pushes himself to reach, which more often than not causes him to overheat or even self-destruct.
