Flicky (Sonic X)

Flicky (フリッキー) is a species that appears in the Sonic X anime series and its comic series published by Archie Comics which first debuted in "Pure Chaos". It is a race of non-anthropomorphic and colorful bluebirds native to Sonic the Hedgehog's world.

Anatomy
The general Flicky is a small and rotund bird with orange three-toed feet. They have a round-shaped head with two large eyes, a soft orange beak and hair tuffs on their head. Their wings are medium-sized compared to their body which is usually smaller than their heads and their tail consists of delicate feathers. In terms of markings, their bellies are normally colored differently.

The Flickies' plumage and eyes come in a variety of different colors. They can also have different hair styles, some more elaborate than others. Some Flickies also display facial markings, like rosy cheeks and a dark patch across the eyes, or even a chubbier built.

Characteristics
Like actual birds, the Flickies can only speak in a language consisting of chirps and tweets. While recognized as animals, Flickies are remarkably intelligent and sociable, being capable of understanding normal language and display striking insight. Some are even shown to live in civilized environments and reside in their own houses.
