Sonic the Hedgehog

* Current
* Younger

**Sonic the Hedgehog**, is both a fictional character and protagonist of the *SKB's* *Sonic Pokémon* series created by Yuji Naka and Ken Sugimori. He is an anthropomorphic blue hedgehog and renowned as a hero across the planet.

Possessing a strong sense of justice, Sonic has stood as the primary opposition to defend the innocent from the villainous reign forces of evil, most notably against the tyranny of Dr. Eggman, and his corrupt empire for years.

He is the strongest and the primary agent of the Resistance's Freedom Fighters, a generation of heroes whom he inspired with his unyielding heroism and continues to be their main source of hope & strength to this day.

Although he is sometimes overconfident and assumes he can deal with things on his own, Sonic also realizes he has friends to back him up when needed. Additionally, he is always willing to put his life on the line for his loved ones.

Sonic's ultimate weapon is his endowed power of super speed and the ability to control the Chaos Emeralds, and he has used it to help those in need, as well as foil his enemies' plans.

"*I live for the moment. I want to see the world, find all its thrills and adventures, and enjoy them. I want everyone to have the freedom to do that, too. And you wouldn't get that opportunity if I took it away from you. I've made peace with enough enemies to know there is a better way.*"

—Sonic, to Surge.

### Biography

Sonic is the world's fastest hedgehog, capable of running at supersonic speeds and the speed of sound (768 mph). Generally speaking, he loves being able to do what he wants and loathes being constrained. Holding still is something he would never consider. He's got a bit of an attitude but can't pass by someone in trouble. Sonic is not an expert swimmer but is fearless – even of Dr. Eggman. Alongside his best friend Tails, Sonic runs around the world stopping Dr. Eggman's schemes.

Like the wind Sonic never stands still and is always on the move. Sonic is cool under pressure, particularly when faced with his arch enemy, Dr. Eggman. He thinks that saving the world is no big feat, and he always protects and fights for the underdog. Sonic hates boredom and is constantly looking for his next adventure. Sonic lives and dies by his own rules. He never thinks twice about what others think or say; he is driven by his own sense of justice and fair play.

A blue hedgehog with a penchant for high speed, Sonic is a free spirit with a love for adventure. Sonic was born to run and loves to cover as much ground as fast as he can. His demeanor is always cool and calm. When he finds himself in a pinch, he acts as though nothing can stop him. When faced with a serious situation, Sonic bears down on the task at hand, focused on the challenge. He despises anything that is unfair and will get into trouble to help anyone in need.

For Sonic, saving the world is just another thrilling episode in his life.

His other abilities include a 'Spin Attack', a 'Spin Dash' and his 'Super Sonic' transformation which makes him indestructible and gives him the gift of run-flight. When he collects the seven Chaos Emeralds, he transforms into the mighty, gold Super Sonic.

### Physical Appearance

Sonic is a slim mobian hedgehog with blue fur that covers most of his body, and peach skin that covers his arms, muzzle, insides of his ears and front torso. He has small, triangular ears on top of his head, six long quills on the back of his head, two spines protruding from his back behind his shoulders, and a short tail.

#### Past

In his younger years, Sonic was shorter and stubbier, had a round head and an equally round torso, and black eyes (although this trait has been portrayed inconsistently).

#### Present

In the present day, he has since grown taller and thinner, and developed green eyes.

## Powers and abilities

Sonic's trademark ability is his super speed. He can travel up to speeds surpassing Mach 1, which is at the blistering speed of about 768 mph. He also utilizes this in hand-to-hand combat as shown when facing Neo Metal Sonic, giving him quick reflexes and reaction time. While running, Sonic resembles a blue streak from a distance that leaves a blue trail behind him. At the same time, he is experienced enough with his speed to turn easily while maintaining his speed.

While Sonic's top speed is unknown, glimpses of Sonic's prowess are shown in his tendency to routinely scale vertical walls, effortlessly knock down enemies in his path, run over water, and ability to build up enough momentum to throw spears with such force that they can pierce large metal structures while exerting enough air pressure to blow said structures apart. His speed also allows him to perform several impressive feats, such as creating small tornadoes by running around in circles at super speeds.

Sonic's speed is so great that he could eventually outpace a spatial maze reality that folds back in on itself ad infinitum, which even Dr. Eggman knew could not hold Sonic for long. Sonic can also use the Boost to not only increase his speed but also barge through obstacles in his path. Sonic has demonstrated complete mastery of his speed at nearly any level.

Not only can he run at a maximum tilt in straight lines, but also through sharp turns with full control over his momentum, and without recklessly crashing into unintended targets. To match his super speed, Sonic also has immense, though not quite limitless, stamina that allows him to run at high speed for days without rest. Sonic is also a skilled acrobat with quick reflexes and reaction time to match. He is able to perform a variety of aerobatic moves and techniques, even while running.

Despite his size, he also has great physical strength; he is able to easily fling Amy Rose and her large hammer several feet into the air singlehandedly, overpower Master Overlord's giant grip alongside Shadow and Knuckles, and set off with enough power to bend thick metal armor. Sonic can also ascend hundreds of meters into the air with a single jump.

He is also incredibly durable, being capable of taking a hit from an artillery shell and emerging from it without a scratch, as well as enduring several powerful blows from Zavok without any serious injuries. Sonic possesses the ability to harness the power of the Chaos Emeralds.

With them, Sonic can give himself a boost in power. He is also a capable aerial pilot, able to properly pilot the Tornado at high speed, although he is not nearly as skilled as Tails. Sonic's core offensive maneuver is the Spin Attack, a technique where he curls into a concussive ball or cutting disk and directs himself at his targets.

With it, Sonic can shred or burrow through just about any substance given enough speed, and perform moves like the Spin Dash, Homing Attack, and Rolling Combo, though the last one requires the aid of Tails.

### Powers

Sonic's most notable ability is his incredible super speed, allowing him to cruise at speeds far surpassing Mach 1 which is at the blistering speed of 768 mph or more. While his top speed is unknown, glimpses of Sonic's prowess are shown in his tendency to routinely scale vertical walls, effortlessly knock down enemies in his path and run over water, plow straight through foes, and even cause the ground to explode in his wake. He is also stated to be the fastest thing alive in any world.

Sonic has demonstrated complete mastery of his speed at any level. Not only can he run at maximum tilt in straight lines, but also in full tight circles and through sharp turns with full control over his momentum, and without recklessly crashing into unintended targets. However, he has trouble keeping his balance when coming to a sudden halt at full speed though. As far as stamina goes, Sonic's is seemingly limitless as he is never winded from running.

Sonic can also set strong winds in motions with high-speed movements to attack opponents, similar to aerokinesis. Sonic possesses extreme acrobatic skills, agility, and reflexes enough to compliment his astonishing speed, enabling him to avoid sizable voluminous and minuscule obstacles with precise jumps and delicate movements despite their close proximity and incoming speed.

Sonic is incredibly resilient to pain and damage, capable of taking beating after beating from a large spectrum of adversaries without any lasting injuries. He is also a skilled fighter and a profound user of hand-to-hand combat. Even during his earlier adventures, he had the capabilities to single-handedly take on hordes of Eggman's robots. Like Shadow, Sonic can use the power of the Chaos Emeralds to perform Chaos Control, which allows him to teleport to other locations.

Sonic's primary offensive maneuver is the Spin Dash, a technique in which he, while curled into a concussive ball or cutting disk, can damage, destroy, mow down, or burrow through many obstacles or foes. He also has an aerial variant of it called the "Homing Attack" where he homes into a target from midair while in spinball form. He can also grind along rails and move down them at high speeds.

### Transformations

#### Super Sonic

*Main article:* *Super Sonic*
By harnessing the power of the seven Chaos Emeralds, Sonic can transform into **Super Sonic**. While in this state, Sonic's innate and natural talents are not only vastly increased exponentially, but he is also granted the ability of flight, invulnerability. He also gains the power of energy channeling and can as well manipulate Chaos energy to his will.

#### Nightmare Sonic

*Main article:* *Nightmare Sonic*
When Sonic accidentally inhaled a concentrated dose of Dark Gaia Energy, he unwillingly gained the ability to transform into **Nightmare Sonic the Werehog**, a mutated version of his original form. In this form, Sonic is granted increased strength, elastic arms and sharp claws. However, the corruptive influence of the energy initially caused him to become extremely violent and aggressive. However, he soon learned to exert control over himself in this form. When exposed to sunlight, he automatically reverts back to normal.

#### Color Powers

*Main article:* *Color Powers*
By harnessing different variants of energy from Wisps, Sonic can use specific **Color Powers** to transform into a certain form that contains a unique ability. Such examples of this are the Cyan Laser and the Green Hover.

### Weaknesses

Although well-versed in his own super speed, Sonic has trouble building up his speed in unfavorable environments, like in deep snows where it is hard to get traction or inside small rooms. Additionally, Sonic's stamina is not unlimited; if pushed to run often for several days on end with little to no sleep, Sonic's stamina can reach its limits, causing him to feel actual fatigue and exhaustion.
