Flicky (Archie)


 * For the version of this species before the Super Genesis Wave, see Flicky (Pre-Super Genesis Wave).

Flicky is a species that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics. They are a kind of colorful Mobini bird race that inhabit various regions across Sonic's World. The Flickies are constantly captured by Dr. Eggman who uses them as batteries for his various Badniks.

Anatomy
Flickies are small and round-shaped birds with three-toed feet. They have a round-shaped head with two large eyes, a round torso, a soft beak and hair tuffs on their head. Their wings are medium-sized compared to their body and their tail consists of delicate feathers. Some Flickies also display facial markings like colored cheeks and dark patches across the eyes.

Flickies in general come in four breeds which have specific physics, colorations, and even hairstyles, although these are not uniformly looks for all Flickies as certain individuals can have their own unique plumage colors, eye colors and hair styles. These four breeds include:
 * Light blue ones with pale yellow bellies. They also got a tassel in their hair above the forehead.
 * Green, fat ones with a big bun in the middle of the head and pale yellow bellies.
 * Pink ones with pony tails on both sides of the head.
 * Red ones with mullets and hair strains on their forehead.

Characteristics
Like actual birds, the Flickies can only speak in a language consisting of squawks. Although recognized as non-sentient, the Flickies show at times striking insight. Peaceful and friendly, Flicky birds do not fear strangers.

Hunted and freed
Following Dr. Eggman's uprising, the Flickies have perpetually been kidnapped by the Eggman Empire to be used as power sources for the Badnik Horde employed by Eggman and his various Egg Army factions. Over the course of time, the New Freedom Fighters and other parties have freed countless Flickies from their robot shells during their battles with Badniks.

Shattered World Crisis
Bunnie Rabbot-D'Coolette flew into a group of Flickies meant for a wedding that was interrupted by the disastrous flooding at Harbor Heights, which was caused by the Shattered World Crisis.
