User:BlazingWolfJanne/ASO Bios--Metal Series

Metal Sonic is the name applied to a powerful badnik based on Sonic the Hedgehog that was created by Dr. Eggman to serve as the ultimate match for the speedy hedgehog. This badnik has usually been loyal to Dr. Eggman to an extent and has proven to be an effective adversary against Sonic the Hedgehog on occasion. Numerous versions of Metal Sonic have been produced by Eggman, as successive units are destroyed in battle against Sonic and other enemies. Nevertheless, each successive model became more dangerous to confront, and its threat potential only increased after being joined by other similar Badniks as part of the Metal Series.

The Original Metal Sonic (v1.0, v2.0, and v2.5)

 * See also: Shard the Metal Sonic - First Encounter (v1.0), Fighting the Chaotix (v2.0), and Vengeance &amp; Sacrifice (v2.5)

The first variant of Metal Sonic was built by Dr. Ivo Robotnik so he could have his "own Sonic the Hedgehog". In his first plan involving Metal Sonic, it overheated its engine while trying to catch up to Sonic the Hedgehog, melting the lower half of its body. This Metal Sonic was later rebuilt with a Power Gem core to stop Knuckles the Echidna and the Chaotix. After a prolonged battle involving Metal Sonic transforming into Titan Metal Sonic v2.0 the robotic duplicate was defeated seemingly once and for all. Though destroyed by Knuckles, Metal Sonic survived due to its Power Gem core. Driven by revenge, the new and improved Metal Sonic kidnapped Miles "Tails" Prower and held him hostage at Mount Mobius, but it ultimately sacrificed itself to save Sonic and Tails when Tails' heroic actions allowed it to see it could be more than its programming. It was thought to have finally met its demise, but its core programming was later found to be part of the still functional Power Gem and the robot was rebuilt into the heroic Shard the Metal Sonic.

Versus Sonic and Shadow (v3.0)
When the Freedom Fighters and Shadow the Hedgehog found a lost military base from before the Xorda attack, Dr. Eggman constructed Metal Sonic and sent him to investigate, as well as engage Sonic in combat. (StH: #146)

Sonic, Metal Sonic and Shadow all got into a three-way brawl upon meeting up, with the latter two eventually teaming up against the blue blur. When the three were separated, however, Metal Sonic found himself conversing with the base's caretaker, Isaac, about the history of the instillation and Mobius itself. (StH: #147, #148)

When the three started fighting again, they stumbled upon an ancient missile that Isaac was about to launch. The missile was stopped by Shadow and Sonic, and the new Metal Sonic was defeated and destroyed. (StH: #148, #149)

Settling Scores (v3.1)
Following this encounter, Shadow located the facility on Prison Island where Professor Gerald Robotnik had finished creating him and was last seen alive. There, a replacement model of the destroyed Metal Sonic suprised and engaged Shadow in combat. The two were rendered unconscious when Metal Sonic fired a super charged weapon that caused a major explosion nearby. Eggman's "daughter" Mecha retrieved the damaged Metal Sonic and brought him back for repairs, while also bringing Shadow with her. (StH: #157)

Some time later, Metal Sonic soon captured Sonic and brought him to Dr. Eggman, who used a device to control Sonic's body. When Metal Sonic went into some sort of stasis, Snively, frustrated with Eggman's childlike methods of defeating Sonic, decided it would be a good time to betray his uncle once again. When he attempted to reprogram Metal Sonic to work for him however, he found that it was spying on him. Eggman revealed that he knew of Snively's treacherous ways, and programmed Metal Sonic, along with every other robot, to monitor Snively in case he decided to back stab him once again. When Knuckles destroyed the device in Sonic's ear, Eggman and Metal Sonic attacked Knothole Village, but Metal Sonic was easily destroyed by Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles. (FCS: #1)

Two for One (v3.2)
A new model was produced and used to attack Freedom HQ. Unlike previous models, this Metal Sonic allowed Dr. Eggman to speak through it via radio transmission. When Scourge the Hedgehog explained to Eggman that he and the Suppression Squad had taken over Freedom HQ, Eggman simply had the new Metal Sonic attack him. Sonic arrived on the scene shortly afterwards, but Scourge decided he preferred to fight alone and not get help from Sonic, despite having little success against the robot. Metal Sonic then proceeded to attack both Scourge and Sonic, and reinforcements arrived moments later in the form of Metal Scourge. (StH: #191)

While holding the upper hand against their organic counterparts, both Metal Sonic and Metal Scourge were quickly destroyed by the Suppression Squad. Their parts were salvaged, however, and used by Sir Charles Hedgehog to reconstruct Shard. (StH: #192, #238)

Cross-dimensional Clash (v3.3)

 * See also: Captain Metal

Shortly after the destruction of both Metal Sonic and Metal Scourge by the Suppression Squad, Eggman created a new Metal Sonic model, this time using the newer SXSU-401 engine instead of the typical STH-25, allowing the robot to transport to any other dimension to pursue Sonic. Metal Sonic then left for Moebius against his creator's will to find and attack Sonic and the others in Castle Acorn. Sonic later made an offer for Metal Sonic to help him take out Scourge first, instead of attacking everyone else, and the robot nonchalantly agreed. Scourge didn't give up, however, and rushed to the throne room, followed by Sonic and Shadow. Scourge then turned the tables on everyone by revealing that he had placed Anarchy Beryl in his throne. This allowed Scourge to transform into a stronger form; Super Scourge. (StH: #195)

Metal Sonic was temporarily defeated by Super Scourge along with the others and then tried to attack Sonic again when he deduced that defeating Scourge was no longer an option. It was later transported to another location along with Shadow when he tried to override Metal's teleporter engine with Chaos Control. Arriving in an alternate universe, Metal Sonic was employed by that reality's version of Dr. Robotnik to attack everyone, but was once again transported to a different reality by Shadow. (StH: #196, SX: #40)

Metal Sonic and Shadow then ended up in the Sol Zone, floating above an ocean. Shadow tried to convince Metal Sonic to no longer obey Dr. Eggman, but Metal Sonic completely ignored Shadow's request and kicked him into the water before flying off to look for the zone's version of Eggman. Furious that he could not locate that zone's Robotnik, Metal Sonic began attacking Southern Island. Shadow, Blaze and Marine showed up shortly to witness the destruction Metal Sonic had caused. Blaze furiously attacked Metal Sonic, but the machine simply used his powers to reverse Blaze's attack. Neither Shadow or Marine could take down Metal Sonic. However, Shadow tried once again to convince Metal Sonic to work with him, but Metal Sonic simply pointed out they each had different goals, and his was to serve Dr. Eggman. Thus, Blaze set fire to Metal Sonic, and Shadow charged at him. The robot flew towards the Ocean Tornado, and Marine destroyed him with the ship's cannon. (SU: #1)

Much later on, Super Sonic used Chaos Control in an attempt to reverse the Super Genesis Wave and Dr. Eggman interrupted this process, resulting in the entire original Multiverse being forcibly rewritten as a completely new Multiverse. This process would have potentially completely erased the Sol Zone, but thanks to the Jeweled Scepter, the Sol Zone simply was rewritten itself, with certain elements surviving the rewrite such as Metal Sonic v3.3, which was salvaged and rebuilt as Captain Metal.

Rise of the Death Egg II (v3.4)
The next Metal Sonic model appeared during Sonic and Sally's attempt to thwart Dr. Eggman's Operation: Clean Sweep aboard the Death Egg Mark 2. Soon after Eggman revealed his new world Roboticizer and a simulation of it's devastating effects on Mobius, Sonic moved to attack the doctor when a new Metal Sonic swooped down from behind and charged him. Ranting on the latest model, Sonic battled his robotic counterpart as it worked in tandem with a damaged Silver Sonic v3.0 from an earlier fight. (StH: #230)

As the fight went on, it seemed Metal Sonic and his giant silver brethren would be victorious. A light then flashed from the Roboticizer as it activated, however the device exploded due to a malfunction and destroyed the room, heavily damaging the Death Egg. Already being a robot, Metal Sonic was incompatible to the Roboticization process just like other mechanics, and it blew up into a robotic mess with its head severed. (StH: #230)

Causing a Casualty (v3.5)
This unit was built after Operation: Clean Sweep and appeared alongside the upgraded Mecha Sally when Dr. Eggman attempted to assassinate Elias Acorn and his family while relocating from New Mobotropolis to Feral Forest, and at first focused on Sonic as it's primary target while proving to be too much for the deroboticized Bunnie. As the robots battled with the convoy's escort, Dr. Eggman ordered Metal Sonic to latch onto the Mobo-Cruiser carrying the Acorn family and detonate. Antoine removed Metal Sonic from the vehicle in time, however, and was the only one caught in the robot's explosion, which left him comatose. (StH: #234, #235)

Team Metal (v3.6)
Dr. Eggman unveiled the seventh incarnation of Metal Sonic v3.0 to his Dark Egg Legion Grandmasters along with the rest of the Metal Series for the purpose of serving as the doctor's new enforcers as a result of Snively's betrayal. It accompanied Mecha Sally in joining the Eggman Empire's attack on Central City in an effort to find Snively. During the battle, Metal Sonic and Mecha Sally were able to take E-123 Omega by surprise and attacked him using their laser cannons. As Snively attempted to escape again, Mecha Sally and Metal Sonic effortlessly destroyed the G.U.N. fighters sent out to bring down Snively's craft before returning to the Egg 'Stache Flyer to continue the chase. It was then dispatched along with Metal Tails and Metal Amy as Team Metal in New Mobotropolis with assistance from Tails Doll in an attempt to get rid of Team Freedom, but as it was about to engage Heavy and Bomb, Metal Sonic was attacked by Shard, the original Metal Sonic, who then proceeded to destroy it.
