History
With Doctor Robotnik having successfully captured the Freedom Fighters, sans Sonic, in a trap, he arrived in his Hover-Matic to finish them off, but would retreat with his minions after Sonic plugged his factory's chimney with a giant corkscrew in order to save the factory.

Later, Robotnik would set up a fake "Secret Admirer" as a trap for the Freedom Fighters, and arrive in his Hover-Matic along with an army of Buzz-Bombers, and would retreat in the same vehicle with his minions being defeated.
