Emerl (Sonic X)

Emerl is a robot from the Sonic X Zone. It spent its first appearances stalking Dr. Eggman. It then met and befriending Sonic and his friends, before supposedly being destroyed.

Background Information

 * Emerl originates from the Gameboy Advance game Sonic Battle, where it was revealed to be created by the Gizoids. Whether this fact remains true for the Prime Zone versions of the Gizoids is unknown.
 * Emerls role in the Sonic X anime differed significantly from his role in the game, where his origin was never explained (however his game origin is hinted at in the comic, where it's implied he had some kind of connection to Professor Gerald Robotnik)
 * In Sonic X #15, it is implied that Emerl was destroyed. This is in reference to his demise in the anime, where a Chaos Emerald caused him to lose control and battle Sonic and his friends, and as a result ended up being destroyed by Cream and Cheese.
 * According to Ian Flynn, Emerl is one of several characters that Sega requested not to be used in the main comic universe, meaning that the chances of a Prime Zone version of Emerl ever being introduced are unlikely.
