Human

Humans (人間) are creatures in the Sonic the Hedgehog  series. They are a sentient species and the most dominant beings on Earth.

Anatomy
Humans' anatomy is very similar to their real-life counterparts, although various depictions of them often stylize them as realistic to cartoony with exaggerated features, as shown with Prof. Pickle, whose eyebrows cover his eyes, or by Dr. Eggman's highly disproportional arms and legs.

Humans' skin tones can fall into multiple shades of colors, such as peach or brown. Their hair colors can also differ, though its never anything out of the ordinary, unlike most anthropomorphic animals. In terms of body shape, humans are much more diverse than anthropomorphic animals, as they can range greatly between different individuals.

Characteristics and culture
Humans, for the most part, are a very diverse species, living in many varied environments, from modern cities to more simpler settings. Depending on the locals and environment, humans may have different traditions and beliefs they follow. Politically, humans are divided among various nation-states, some of which include the United Federation which is lead by a president, and the Kingdom of Soleanna which is lead by a royal family. Despite the craziness and disasters that happen around them though, humans just want to get on with their lives, as they do not like to concern themselves with trivial matters, like the shattering of the planet. While humans have a history of causing many horrific incidents over the most trivial things, Amy Rose and Chip has attested that humans are basically a good-hearted species.

While humans and anthropomorphic animals mostly co-exist, as shown by Rouge's involvement with the mostly human-exclusive organization, GUN, it would appear that there is at least some level of very apparent segregation between the two, given how Station Square, New City, and other cities across the world are populated by humans with no known anthropomorphic citizens in any of these locales outside of Amy.

Powers and abilities
Certain individuals among humanity have demonstrated exceptional intelligence and affinity for technology as evidenced by the complex machinery and inventions found in their cities, such as the floating monitors in Station Square. They have even gone on to create multiple advanced robots and massive space stations, which goes to show that their potential for intelligence is very high.

Fundamentally, humans appear to have no special powers. Only a very small percentage of them have demonstrated a small degree supernatural abilities; Princess Elise the Third has demonstrated the ability to have visions and create an energy field by combining her powers with others (although this may simply be due to her having Iblis sealed within her), and certain individuals in Mazuri are born with the ability to sense spirits. The Duke of Soleanna has as well demonstrated the ability to harness Chaos energy despite seemingly being a normal human.

Dr. Eggman is arguably the most superhuman human seen in the series, exemplified by his surprising feats of strength and speed on various occasions.

Archie Comics
In the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics, humans are said to be the ancestors of Overlanders, a species of devolved humanoids. Several thousand years ago, humans used to live on Mobius (back when the planet was still called "Earth") as the planet's dominant species. However, due to their actions towards the Xorda emissary, they antagonized the Xorda, causing them to drop Gene Bombs on the planet, eventually leading to the mutation of most humans into Overlanders and the animal kingdom into mobians. However, some humans survived and lived in isolation for thousands of years. As such, humanity still maintains a presence on Mobius, albeit in much less numbers.

Sonic X
In the anime series Sonic X, humans reside on Earth, a parallel plant to Sonic's home world. In this media, humans are even more similar to their real-life counterparts than in the games, as their technology was almost nothing special until they studied the otherworldy E-Series robots. However, one man, Gerald Robotnik, does not fit this stereotype, as he was able to create things such as the Eclipse Cannon and even Shadow, although there are some hints that he may have had contact with Sonic's world at some point, given his knowledge of the Chaos Emeralds.

A different group of humans also exist within Sonic's home universe, who appears to be several times more technologically advanced than even those on Sonic's planet, who are in turn more technologically advanced than the humans on Earth.

Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie
In Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie, humans appear to have a regular society akin to that of the United States which is lead by a president. Like in the video games, they live alongside anthropomorphic animals.

Other appearances
In most other medias, such as Sonic Underground, Sonic the Comic, and Sonic Boom, Eggman is almost always the sole human known to exist, although some other humans appear occasionally.
