Time Eater

The Time Eater (タイム・イーター) will be featured as one of the main antagonists and the final boss of the video game Sonic Generations.

History
Time Eater first appears in Green Hill Zone as a younger Sonic explores. It is next seen in the present day, when it appears at a birthday party for Sonic. It abducts Sonic's friends and beats back Sonic when he tries to stop it. Sonic is then forced into a white void by Time Eater, only to meet with his past self.

After Sonic defeats the Death Egg Robot abord the Death Egg, Time Eater reappears, apparently kidnapping that time's Doctor Eggman.

Much later, both Sonics confront Time Eater. The pilot is revealed to be none other than Eggman himself, to which Tails wonders how Eggman could pull it off. The second pilot is revealed to be Classic Eggman, who stated that he had a little help. Modern Eggman explains that after his last defeat, he had stumbled across the 'primordial' form of the Time Eater, finding out about its abilities to erase space and time. He sought to utilise that power to wipe out Sonic once and for all, but do so, he needed help from someone as smart as himself - and that turned out to be Eggman's younger self.

Sonic declares that he takes on Eggman all the time and wins, and this time there are two of him. Eggman then launches the Time Eater's arm into a portal as the two Sonics attack. Time Eater effortlessly beats back both Sonics before a portal opens up - and Time Eater's arm emerges from it, squashing the pair.

However, Sonic's friends arrive and encourage them to defeat Time Eater and both Eggmans, and the pair transform into Super Sonic. The pair are eventually victorious in destroying the Time Eater, leaving both Eggmans stranded while they return to their times.

Trivia

 * This is the only original boss in Sonic Generations since the rest are all remakes of past bosses.
 * Its appearance is similar to the Void Wisp, except the inside of its mouth and eyes are cyan instead of yellow.
 * It is possible that Time Eater was a Wisp in its primordial form, as it was found near the homeworlds of the Wisps.
 * The silhouette of Time Eater is also similar to the Nega-Wisp Armor.
 * Looking closely at the Time Eater's head; "horns" are visible, along with two large cogs behind the lower portion of the Time Eater. This suggests that Time Eater could actually be some sort of supernatural machine. This could, however be for the "time" effect, because they have the appearence of clock cogs.
 * Time Eater bears a heavy resemblance to the Shadow Blot from the game Epic Mickey . They both act as the antagonist of the game and they are also consuming the world where the game takes place.
 * Time Eater also bears a resemblence to Nemesis from Beyblade Metal 4D..
