Rules

I think that polls are much more fun when there aren't any rigid rules (not that anyone really follows them, anyway) but that being said, here's a few things that you should know:

I LOVE propaganda posts! Feel free to tag me in them and I'll do my best to reblog all of those that I see that doesn't conflict with anything in the following.

Please be respectful to each other/other contestants! I won't reblog propaganda posts that put down contestants. Showing them fighting or that sort of thing is fine, I more mean just saying mean things about them (or ESPECIALLY other people voting).

If you make any comments about wanting voters of x character to 'kys', you will be immediately blocked by me. I don't tolerate that, and I hate that it even has to be said. It just silly robot poll!

Please don't send propaganda to my ask box!!! I want it open for housekeeping and discussion.

That's it! Have fun!

It's been 20 years since Sonic X debuted in Japan!

I found this promotional preview for the show, which were used for the openings. (Wow, Sonic's causing more damage to the city than Eggman)

who are your favorite henchmen/sidekicks for dr. eggman?? (scratch & grounder, decoe & bocoe, orbot & cubot, or any others?)

Thank you for the anonymous poll! I hope it is okay that I have added some options inspired by this poll on reddit: since the VA polls I am trying to include add options I see that people may have wanted.

I'm remembering a Sonic X what-if idea I did with @cloud-kitsune ages ago, that I'm interested in possibly delving into again.

Basically, the whole interdimensional traveling stuff to Sonic's world not only resulted in Chris physically aging back down, but it also wiped his memory. Decoe and Bocoe feel bad for him, especially when those good old underlying abandonment issues of his subconsciously resurfaces in him, and the two decide to take care of him until the whole mess can be resolved.

So, here’s a thought. In Sonic X, Eggman’s machines are a bit infamous for heavily resembling machines and robots from other franchises-

It even reaches a point where its poked fun at in the show itself-

Now, obviously its all just a big ol’ referential gag to the various other science fiction franchises and machines out there, and there’s nothing more to it than that. But me being me, I got to thinking about it.

In Sonic X, Eggman is originally from Earth and somehow was sent over to Sonic’s World, and supposedly possesses no memories of his time on Earth and how he got there. It’s a... frustrating plot point, one that becomes nonsensical once other details are revealed later down the line. Nor does it quite make sense since Eggman evidently knows what baseball is, even though baseball doesn’t exist in Sonic’s World and Eggman supposedly doesn’t remember his time on Earth.

But enough about that. What I’m getting at? Either Eggman is lying for whatever reason, or he remembers stuff from Earth without being aware that they’re memories. And the reason why his robots and machines all resemble stuff from other science fiction franchises? Is because Eggman is a MASSIVE nerd who purposely took inspiration from those various films and series when making his machines, either consciously or unconsciously.

I’m not gonna figure out how the timeline works here given that the latest of these is from 1991 (Kinkyū Hasshin Saver Kids, from which Bocoe and Decoe are derived), and as I said timeline stuff is screwy thanks to the differential between Earth and Sonic World and its all just a mess. But all the same, I thought it might be a neat in-universe explanation for why so much of Eggman’s stuff seems so... familiar, even if I know its all just a big silly joke.

Point of order though? X-Eggman is the Nerdiest Eggman Ever, heh.
