- List of Sonic X characters
This article is for fictional characters from the "Sonic the Hedgehog" franchise that appear exclusively in the animated series "
Sonic X " and the associated comic book.For minor characters in other continuities, seeOther characters in Sonic the Hedgehog .Albert Butler
Albert Butler is the
groundskeeper of Station Square'sbaseball stadium, Diamond Stadium, appearing in Episode 10. Albert has been the groundskeeper for thirty odd years, but the owner of the stadium plans to demolish it and replace it with a new indoors stadium, and Albert worries he'll be out of a job. At some point, Albert came into possession of one of theChaos Emeralds . Tails is drawn to the stadium by the energy signature of Albert's emerald and the two become friends. Eggman shows up and steals the emerald, but a baseball game breaks out, Albert watching from the sidelines. Sonic's team wins the match, but Eggman escapes with Albert's emerald. The owner of the stadium arrives and offers Albert a new job in the new baseball stadium, which Albert happily accepts. Albert appears as a background character in several later episodes.Bokkun
Bokkun is employed by
Doctor Eggman to send messages to Sonic that come in a form of aTV that blows up in the recipient's face. Bokkun gets mistreated and sometimes even abused and cries very easily, due to Eggman always hurting him. His pleasures include annoying people withbomb s or eating various desserts. He is very loyal to Eggman, who he treats like afather or creator. Bokkun can fly using ajetpack (possibly bolted to his back), and has a boiling point temper. He is 50 cm (1ft 8in) tall and weighs 20 kg (43lbs). [ [http://www.teamartail.com/sonicx/viewimage.php/10/images/069bokkun.jpgBokkun information card from "Sonic X"] ]He once called upon the Egg Golem also seen in "
Sonic Adventure 2 ". Early in the series' third season, Bokkun is forced to helpRouge the Bat , whoblackmail s him with a heart-shaped locket he owns, threatening to show everyone the picture of the girl inside it, whom Bokkun has a crush on. The scene where his crush is revealed to beCream the Rabbit is cut out of the English version for unknown reasons. [ [http://www.sonicfighters.com/rattleman/sxu/series/ep78jpen-pg2.htm Sonic X Uncensored: Episode 78] ]Bokkun looks like a black, gold eyed type of Dark Chao with blue and white patches without his bauble and red shoes and white gloves like sonic, and a pale green rucksack over his shoulder, where he keeps his privileged bombs.
There's some to debate as to whether Bokkun is a robot or an
anthropomorph ic animal, as he has shown a wide range of emotions including a crush onCream the Rabbit , is capable of having his feelings hurt, and is able to become hyper from eating too much sugar as seen in the Sonic X comic. Although a caption in an issue of the "Sonic X" comic refers to him as "Dr. Eggman's delivery robot", and he is seen drinkingmotor oil , Chris refers to him as a robot in Episode 8, as Ella does in episode 20, although both times it was as an insult, so it may have been more of making fun of him rather than commenting on his species. He uses an "M" on his belt buckle, which refers to Dr. Eggman's name for him, "Messenger Robo".Bokkun is voiced by
Yumiko Kobayashi in Japan andAndrew Rannells in the English dub.Chris Thorndyke
Chris Throndyke is the main human protagonist of Sonic X series. He is the son of Nelson Thorndyke, the CEO of a fictional engineering corporation, and his wife, actress Lindsay Thorndyke (born Lindsay Fair). His parents do not spend much time with him due to their own hectic lifestyles and he was mostly raised collectively by his grandfather Chuck Thorndyke and the house servants Mr. Tanaka and Ella.
Chris is the first human that Sonic the Hedgehog fully interacts with after Chris saved him from drowning at his house pool. Sonic lives in his mansion for most of the series, along with his friends Tails, Amy Rose, Cream the Rabbit and Cheese. Generally friendly and quiet, he forms a strong bond with Sonic, but often worries about Sonic's carefree and independent personality. Chris was lonely before Sonic came to his world, but after he finds out that his and Sonic's will fuse, and the time will slow to standstill, unless Sonic and his friends return to their homeworld, Chris kidnaps Sonic after his friends left. Sonic tells Chris he'll stay if Chris wants and Chris says Sonic must return, and he finally admits he was lonely before Sonic came and he's afraid Sonic won't return and Chris will be lonely again. Sonic tells Chris they'll see each other again someday. Chris vows one day he will see Sonic again.
Chris (18 years old now) builds a teleport machine identical for that what Tails and Chuck created. Chris teleports himself to Sonic's world, but he arrives as a 12-year old kid, because on Chris' world six years are past, but on Sonic's world only 6 months are gone. After listening to Cosmo about Metarex, he helps Sonic and his friends in mission to stop Metarex, find Chaos Emeralds and save the Planet Eggs in outer space. During the end of Series 2, Eggman builds for Chris a rocket what send him back home. Chris leaves without saying goodbye, but he spots Sonic running and both of them say goodbye. Chris finally leaves Sonic's world and goes back to his homeworld.
In the Japanese version of the anime, Chris is voiced by
Sanae Kobayashi , and in the English version, his voice was performed bySuzanne Goldish . As an adult, Chris is voiced byMasakazu Morita in the Japanese version, and in the English version, his voice is performed byMatthew Charles .Chuck Thorndyke

Chris Thorndyke . He is a scientist andinventor . He always is helping Chris, Sonic and the gang out whenever they need help. He is 165 cm (5ft 5in) tall, weighs 60 kg (131lbs), and is 55 years old. [ [http://www.teamartail.com/sonicx/viewimage.php/04/images/031chuck.jpgChuck Thorndyke information card from "Sonic X"] ] Chuck is voiced byBin Shimada in Japan andJerry Lobozzo in the English dub.Much in the same way that Chris bonds with Sonic the Hedgehog during the latter's stay with the family, and the maid Ella bonds with
Cream the Rabbit , Chuck forms a close friendship with Tails, who shares his love of inventing.Many fans believe his name is a reference to the "SatAM" and "Archie" Sonic continuities as his nickname "Chuck" and his full name "Charles" are shared by "SatAM" and "Archie" Sonic's uncle.
He bears an uncanny resemblance to
Dr. Emmett Brown of the "Back to the Future " films.Cosmo
Cosmo, first appearing in the fifty-third episode, is an eight-year-old child of a plant-like alien species, whose homeworld was destroyed by the villainous
Metarex , and an ally of Sonic and friends. She was raised on aspace colony ; there she lived peacefully, until the Metarex destroyed her home and family, including her mother Hertia and sister Galaxina, and planted a tracking device inside her brain before she escaped to Sonic's homeworld. As the last survivor of the planet, this often leaves her suffering lowself-esteem . A plant herself, Cosmo is shown to have the ability to empathize with plants, trees, or the planet and determine their state of life, while her skirt allows her to jump to high heights, and gently float down to the ground. [ [http://www.teamartail.com/sonicx/viewimage.php/53/images/137.jpg"Sonic X" Episode 53 Screen Capture 137.jpg] ] As an adult of her species, Cosmo would have been able to turn into a tree, and weaken other planets.Her true purpose is later revealed when a Metarex labels her an unwitting
spy , and her friends find they are unable to remove the device without seriously harming her. The seventy-seventh episode sees Cosmo sacrifice herself to weaken the Dark Oak planet, so that Tails, Super Sonic and Super Shadow can destroy it. Their attempt to use a process known as Chaos Regeneration to revive her largely fails, but does produce a small seed, which Tails places in a plant pot in his workshop.Cosmo has made two cameo appearances in the comic series of the same name; in the fifth issue, when Chuck Thorndyke talks about possibilities of extraterrestrial life, and in the twenty-first issue, where a toy in her likeness can be seen at the top of the cover. [ [http://www.megacitycomics.co.uk/acatalog/sonicx-c21.jpgMega City comics] ]
The seed in Tails' workshop is seen in "". It is unknown if it will fully grow. However, it is not likely; the plant is probably just another cameo appearance.

Dark Super Sonic
Decoe and Bocoe

In one episode when Eggman's base is attacked, they mistake Eggman for an enemy and try to shoot him down.
Decoe and Bocoe can also "combine" in various ways. The first one, where Bocoe sits on top of Decoe, gives them the ability to summon Bokkun via a light signal sent from Decoe's eyes (seen in Episode 49). The second one is somewhat more useful in combat, as they combine into a rocket launcher (seen in Episode 75). They also have a common dream that they can combine into a powerful battle robot, but it is merely a fantasy (seen in Episode 48).
They also have unseen fighting skills able to defeat an army of
Metarex with their bare hands accordingDoctor Eggman .In the Japanese version of "Sonic X", Decoe is voiced by Ken Yamaguchi, while his American voice actor is

They both then disappear in a flash of light and are never seen again.Jerome Wise

In Episode 21, he initially decides to call the military in (since Sonic refuses to race against Chris's uncle, Sam Speed), but decides against it and secretly calls Eggman and asks for his help. At the end, Jerome is exposed for making the deal, and is fired. Occasionally, one will see him as a homeless man in later episodes.
In the comic series, Jerome returns as a ranking figure in the anti-Sonic organization S.O.N.I.C.X., and is credited with creating their (somewhat ridiculous) name, having spent hours on the Internet to come up with it.
