~ Dr. Robotnik's last words before supposedly sacrificing himself to save the Earth |
Dr. Ivo Gerald Robotnik, also known as Eggman, is the main antagonist of the Sonic Cinematic Universe.
He is a brilliant yet unstable and narcissistic roboticist who planned to take Sonic the Hedgehog's powers for himself in order to conquer the world. Like many of his counterparts in the franchise, he is the titular protagonist's arch-nemesis. He is also the grandson and former protégé of Professor Gerald Robotnik, the cousin of the late Maria Robotnik, and the boss of Agent Stone.
He was portrayed by Jim Carrey.
His Good Ranking[]
What Makes Him Admirable?[]
- Despite frequently abusing him, Robotnik has a soft spot for Agent Stone even acknowledging that he was his only friend and states he did genuinely care for him, going far as to dedicate his final message to Stone.
- After discovering his grandfather Gerald's true intentions to destroy the Earth, killing everyone on it (including themselves), he was appalled and attempted to stop him showing he would not go this far, seemingly redeeming himself once he managed to defeat his grandfather with Knuckles and Tails at his side.
- Along with Knuckles the Echidna and Miles "Tails" Prower, he manages to move the Eclipse Cannon's laser away from the Earth, even if it did result in part of the Moon being destroyed.
- He (seemingly) sacrifices his life to stave off the Eclipse Cannon's explosion long enough for Shadow the Hedgehog to push it away from the Earth, even exclaiming "If I can't rule the world, I might as well save it!" during his final speech, adding that he does it for the sake of Agent Stone, the only person to have truly cared for him. In turn, he saves not just Earth, but all of humanity from his grandfather.
- Even when compared to Team Sonic, Robotnik manages to stand out thanks to his resources and role in protecting the world from complete annihilation.
What Makes Him Inconsistent?[]
- He spends most of the series as a villain who commits numerous atrocities, including his many attempted murders of Sonic and his friends and family, attempting to use the Master Emerald to enslave all of humanity and rule the multiverse, and trying to help Gerald destroy GUN headquarters, which would have killed millions of innocent people.
- He is an extremely arrogant and an overall egomaniac driven by a desire for world domination, simply because he craves total control.
- He tends to be an extreme jerk to mostly everyone he interacts with and can't go a single sentence with anyone without insulting or threatening them in some manner.
- When he, Tails and Knuckles divert the Eclipse Canon laser away from earth but accidentally slice of part of the moon, Robotnik quickly pins the blame on the latter two for it.
- He frequently abuses and mistreats his assistant Agent Stone in spite of being genuine friends with him.
- His supposed last words were even telling everyone on Earth it's been a real drag and sarcastically thanking them.
- Even after his redemption, Robotnik never shows remorse for any of his crimes.
Trivia[]
- He is the first and only version of Dr. Robotnik/Dr. Eggman so far to be Inconsistently Admirable.
