Dr. Fukurokov

Dr. Fukurokov is the leading scientist and technician of the Battle Bird Armada. He appears to have worked with the armada for quite a while, and has designed and built highly advanced weapons and machinery, including a battle mech he is particularly proud of. A Mobian owl of short stature and shorter temper, he is constantly infuriated by the fact no one can get his name right.

Working For The Aramada
Per orders of the Battle Lord, Dr. Fukurokov designed and constructed an entire base for the armada that was meant to resemble a real island. Considering it to be one of his finest works, the base was then settled offshore from Cocoa Island. He also designed a small fleet of submarines with superior dampening technology to patrol the fortress and keep it safe from underwater attacks. The submarines would unfortunately prove to have inferior weapons and durability compared to other vessels like the Sea Fox. (SU: #18)

After Antoine's escape, Speedy decided to pay the doctor a visit in his workshop to use his computer. Fukurokov then flew into a rant about why he bothered wasting his talents on the armada when nobody respected his privacy while working or even seemed to remember his name. Speedy claimed to know it but could not pronounce it, and managed to distract him with the Egg Network file he found on Bunnie "Rabbot" D'Coolette. Reading that their "D.E.L liason" was actually Roboticized rather than Legionized and one of the first Freedom Fighters, the doctor showed his disgust at the Roboticization process' illogical rule-bending. Speedy then commissioned Dr. Fukurokov to perform some upgrades on the Mole Mech to deal better with their adversaries, to which the doctor happily agreed, claiming it to be a labor of love that would be his finest creation. Intercepting Tails, the D'Coolettes, and T-Pup in the base's storage bay, Fukurokov warned them to stand down and marvel at his works. Instead, he was only humiliated by their inability to pronounce his name as well. Incredulous, Fukurokov muttered that his name really wasn't that hard to say and unleashed his Mole Mech on the trio, swiftly attacking them and proudly boasting of his creation. (SU: #19)

Background Information

 * "Fukuro" means "Owl" in Japan.

Appearance
The first and foremost feature on the doctor's part is the huge beard and odd-looking red spiral glasses, which gives him the appearance of a stereotypical mad scientist. He also wears a hat similar to the battle lord's, a pair of gray open-toed sandals/shoes, and has a red lab coat/robe hidden underneath his beard. This design is a new version of the one used for him in Tails Adventure and was made by Jon Gray.
