- This article is only about the Sonic Boom version of Dr. Eggman, you can find information his mainstream counterpart in here
| “ | I'll be back! With a new robot! Who has an accurate name! And super laser eyes! And he'll feed me ham! Evil ham... | „ |
| ~ Dr. Eggman in "The Sidekick"; one of his most famous quotes. |
| “ | I could build a robot to do this, but there's just something about unpaid labor that makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. | „ |
| ~ Dr. Eggman commenting on Dave the Intern. |
Dr. Eggman is the main antagonist of the Sonic Boom sub-franchise, an alternate-universe spin-off to the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise.
He is a human mad scientist and mechanical genius who seeks to conquer Seaside Island and the entire world, plotting various schemes to that effect. Unlike his mainstream counterpart who is more successful, he is generally more incompetent, idiotic, buffoonish, and comical (similar to his AoStH counterpart), occasionally serving as a neutral associate of Sonic and his friends. He is also the CEO of Eggman Industries, the master of Cubot, Orbot, and the Badniks, the creator of D-Fekt, and the arch-nemesis of Sonic the Hedgehog. Like his mainstream counterpart, he was voiced by Mike Pollock, who also voiced Mirror Dimension Eggman and Lord Eggman in the same series.
Appearance[]
Compared to his other continuity appearances, the doctor's outfit has been dramatically redesigned. He still wears a red jacket with yellow cuffs; two steel rings are seen on his right cuff connecting a small device. The jacket also has a yellow triangle which is attached to one of the jacket's buttons. Unlike his past counterparts which were more round on the upper body, he has a body shape of a T. His mustache is shorter than in the games and shows, and his body appears to be muscular instead of obese.
Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric[]
Eggman appears in Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric as the secondary villain, since Lyric is the principal villain of the game. He works together along with Lyric, but not so well enough. He acted as a lackey to the cybernetic reptile, but later, Eggman planned on, and did betray him.
Personality[]
Like his other incarnations, this version of Eggman is a very hammy, eccentric, and power-hungry tech-savvy mad scientist. He has many typical evil genius quality's, such as an affable personality, snappy fashion sense, and psychopathy, desiring world domination and crushing all who oppose him. What is interesting is his relationship with sonic and his wavering morality. One minute, he is casually chatting with Sonic and his friends, the next, he is ordering burn bot to attack Sonic (Roger Craig Smith) and Tails (Colleen Villard) and leaving them to drown in ice. In one moment, he is enjoying cake with Tails, the next, he has a fire-bot that puts babies into burning houses. All these qualities make him hard to interpret, and to some, he is just a goody-good, and friendly rival who tests Sonic's abilities, to others, he is a complete monster. But most see him as a grey morality character.
Quotes[]
| “ | It all ends here old 'friend', prepare to be destroyed by Burn-Bot! | „ |

| ~ famous quote |
| “ | I didn't even bring any weapons! Here, check my pants. | „ |
| “ | (Tails: "This doesn't look very safe.") Yeah I know, that's why i'm having you do it! | „ |
"Lucky thing I always have a plan B!"
Antagonistic Roles in the Sonic Boom TV Show[]
- The Sidekick: Attacked Sonic with a new weapon called Burn-Bot (which, ironically, has no flame-related weapons, instead being armed with sharp and extendable claws). Crashed Tails's plane, resulting in Tails getting seriously injured. He then pretended to be reformed so he could replace Tails as Sonic's sidekick, but later tried to kill them both with Burn-Bot, who had been outfitted with a flamethrower-like weapon.
- Can an Evil Genius Crash on Your Couch for a Few Days?: Lied to Sonic about having his island fortress destroyed by a monsoon so he could crash at Tails's house. He proved to be a very bad roommate as he constantly demanded food from Tails, snored loudly and even laughed evilly in his sleep, and kept engaging Sonic and co. in unwanted pillow fights, one of which caused Tails to develop short-term memory loss. Eventually, the protagonists grew weary of Eggman's antics to the point of exhaustion, allowing him to attack them with a giant robot called Obliterator-Bot. However, due to faulty programming, the Obliterator-Bot instead flew off to destroy Eggman's island fortress when to told it to destroy Sonic and his four friends. Eggman was forced to accept help from Sonic and the team, who managed to prevail against the mighty Obliterator-Bot despite their weakened state. But they didn't defeat the robot quickly enough and the fortress exploded from the damage, meaning he was now legitimately homeless. However, Sonic didn't let him crash at Tails's place this time. It was also revealed that Eggman abuses Orbot and Cubot, just as he has abused Scratch and Grounder, and Decoe & Bocoe from previous Sonic the Hedgehog cartoons, as he states that Orbot and Cubot do not count as people and have no souls, and would not give them a hug when they requested one.
- Translate This: Stole Tails's translating robot and replaced it with a duplicate when he saw how the invention caused friction between Sonic and his friends. He also broke a deal with Tails by holding him captive as lab assistant, but not freeing the robot like he'd promised. When the others came to rescue Tails, Eggman attacked them with an unnamed robot that used grenade and rocket launchers as weapons.
- Buster: Attacked the town with an Anti-Fireman (the evil robotic opposite of a fireman) that set buildings ablaze, put babies into burning buildings, and placed cats into trees. Later, when Sonic was bringing Sticks to the pet store to help her find a pet, Eggman planted a Cluster-Bot (a robotic dog) inside a garbage can where Sticks would find it and bring it home as her pet. The Cluster-Bot caused grief for the rest of the group. Meanwhile, Eggman robbed a weapon store. He then went to Tails's house and revealed to Sonic and co. that he had built the Cluster-Bot, and attached the stolen weapons to it, turning it into a giant robot that attacked the group. However, Sticks was able to reform the Cluster-Bot by reminding it of the fun they had had together. The Cluster-Bot then attacked Eggman, sending him running back to his fortress.
- My Fair Sticksy: He rigged the Awardy Awards Nomination (the Sonic Boom equivalent of the Nobel Peace Prize) with his Ballot-Bot because he had never won one before. When Eggman did not win the award, he sent robots to attack everyone, including Ballot-Bot, who also had laser guns. He even tried to steal the award from the actual winner, and when Sonic caught him he melted it with his laser gun.
- Fortress of Squalitude: Tricked Amy Rose into redesigning his fortress so he could be on the cover of Evil Lairs Monthly. He took all the credit for himself when Amy did all the work. When Amy tried to leave, Eggman held her captive. This episode also shows Eggman's abuse of Orbot and Cubot as he actually uses them as shredders by making them "eat" his junk mail. He also subjects them to many tasks that are tedious, boring, and sometimes dangerous.
- Double Doomsday: Hired a fanboy named Dave to be his intern, but without any pay. Showed no emotional reaction when Orbot brought a dismantled Cubot to him. To show that he was better than Dave, Eggman built and activated a doomsday device just as powerful as Dave's just to "destroy the world bigger than him." This is a major difference in this version of Eggman and possibly a crossing of the Moral Event Horizon, as Eggman activated his doomsday device with the intent of destroying the world (while earlier versions of Dr. Eggman despised the idea), simply to show he was the greatest evil genius.
Trivia[]
- Actor Michael Pollock who plays Doctor Eggman in various Sonic the Hedgehog games as well as the anime series Sonic X, stated that he still resembles an egg, albeit an upside down egg.
- A major difference between this version of Eggman and other versions is that while in the games and other shows and the games, Eggman despised the idea of destroying the world and was simply content with ruling it, but in Sonic Boom he's perfectly fine with destroying the world just to prove his brilliance.

Trivia[]
- Greg Hahn, a writer for the Sonic Boom television series, stated that this version of Dr. Eggman was named Dr. Eggman and not Ivo Robotnik. However, this still leaves Eggman's first name unknown, assuming that he does have a first name.
- He is referred to as Robotnik in the Brazilian dub however.
- This would make him the first version of Dr. Eggman to not have the last name Robotnik.
- Judging by the Tweet that Greg Hahn made, its possible that Eggman's first name might actually be "Dr." This could explain why he calls himself a doctor, since prior to Mister Eggman, he didn't actually have a doctorate.
- Mike Pollock, the voice actor of Eggman, stated that he still resembles an egg, albeit an upside down one.
- He can be considered the fittest incarnation of the character for looking like somewhat of a beefy bodybuilder as apposed to traditonally being an obese man as he is in most other media. The other two none obese versions of him are his STC counterpart's Kintobor form, and his live action film counterpart.
- However, he is still noted overweight, and has rather poor health. He also possesses cholesterol issues and severely lacks in stamina, and the latter which making him unable to run or exercise for very long before he is exhausted. All of this is likely due to him being severely out of shape. As a testament to his poor physical health, if he exerts himself too much in the process of dodging attacks, he risks throwing out his back.
- Fun fact, this version of Eggman is very similar in appearence to Felonious Gru from the Despicable Me franchise whom was also rumoured by some fans to be based off the former before this show was produced for the below reasons:
- This is due to the fact that both have lanky arms and legs attached to their roundish torso and both are bald with similar shaped heads, have pointy noses, and both can be hybrid heroes/villains. This is also especially for this incarnation of Eggman having an upside down egg shaped torso similar to Gru, rather than the other way around of his games counterpart.
- Fun fact, if one removes his moustache and eye wear this makes him somewhat identical to the latter very easily (which can be seen here).
- Going along with all of that, in fact, this incarnation of Eggman has a shapeshifting robot from an alternate dimension created by the Sonic Boom world reality's version of himself who goes under the name Morpho and is referred to the former's ''brother'' is almost identical to him and has blonde hair, with Dru who is Gru's almost identical twin brother, also having blonde hair. It's currently unknown if any of this was intentional in any form.
- This incarnation of Eggman is one of the most harmless and comedic versions so far.
- A major difference between this version of Eggman and other versions is that while in the games and other shows, Eggman despised the idea of destroying the world and was simply content with ruling it, in this series he is perfectly fine with destroying the world just to prove his brilliance.
- Its being implied that Eggman has a habit of pretending to be Sonic, and even getting his minions in on the act.
- According to Cubot, Eggman sleeps with an evil nightlight and sings while taking a shower.
- Eggman has made repeated references to his father, who apparently didn't like him. He went to become a supervillain to get his approval, as stated in "New Year's Retribution", and says that a heat wave is considered "more oppressive than [his] father". In an episode where he turns coconuts into bombs using robots, Amy makes a leap of faith claiming that the coconuts symbolize mother issues, which Eggman angrily denied.
- There is a running gag in Sonic Boom, is that the doctor, despite being a supervillain with limitless potential for evil, is still hamstrung by bureaucracy.
- As shown in one episode, Eggman has received multiple Grammy nominations, suggesting that he originally wanted to be in the music industry. This may also be a nod to Sonic CD, where Classic Eggman can be seen jamming on the soundtrack options menu.
- In "The Sidekick", Eggman's quote "And he'll feed me HAM! Evil ham..." gained popularity on the Internet, with YouTuber Peter Knetter making a YouTube Poop music video of Eggman doing the rap "Evil Ham Every Day".
- According to himself, he suffers from low blood-sugar, possibly meaning that he may be Diabetic, although its unknown what type.
- Despite him being the only human to appear throughout the series, he makes infrequent references to his family members, suggesting that there could be other humans in the Sonic Boom continuity.
- Dr. Eggman is very wealthy, according to Bill Freiberger, which accounts for his production of numerous costly robots and other costly activities. However, he is still subject to cash flow problems, as seen in "Inn Sanity".
- According to ''The Haunted Lair'', he has a gym membership, although, he never uses it.
- Eggman salvaging Lyric the Last Ancient's machine-controlling device in the video game Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric was first hinted by Steven Frost on Twitter.
- On rare occasions he is seen using his goggles he keeps on his forehead, albeit still in front of his glasses strangely enough, as in reality there would be little to no possibilty of one seeing easily with 2 sets of eyewear.
- The appearence of his eyes are unknown as he is never seen not wearing his glasses.
- In "Eggman the Auteur," he quotes his famous AoStH counterpart by saying "I hate that hedgehog."
- And suprisingly enough, in the Season 2 89th episode "Return of the Buddy Buddy Temple of Doom" he reffered his said counterparts very famous quote ''Snooping as usual i see?'' which is known for being one of the most popular internet memes of all time. The only difference is that his voice actor, Mike Pollock, intentionally didn't put as much emphasis on "PING" and "AS" for obvious reasons.
- According to ''Curse of the Cross Eyed Moose'', He has an agent, whom is never seen.
- Fun fact, Eggman is a "SonAmy" (the idea that Sonic and Amy are in a relationship) shipper.
