History[]
Tails' Skypatrol[]
Along with Hocke-Wulf and Bearanger, Carrottia was one of three henchmen of Witchcart, the villain of the game, who was threatening to transform inhabitants of the island into crystals. She took over Metal Island before being defeated by Miles "Tails" Prower.
Personality[]
Carrottia has been described as flirty and doe-eyed.[1]
She is quite lackadaisical, hating to do work and not even taking battle seriously, showing a complete lack of interest while fighting Tails. Carrottia is so disinterested in her job, she does not even care when Tails traps her in a pit, taking the opportunity to get some sleep. She can also be pretty moody in the event that someone does force her to do more work, and seeks retribution against people who do. Despite her laziness, Carrottia fears her boss, Witchcart, and will quickly obey her orders when she gets angry. Carrottia can also be sarcastic, as seen when she teased Hocke-Wulf about getting a metaphor wrong.[3]
Her apathy towards her work also extends to those who oppose her. She smiles while singing the Flickies into their cages, coldly mocks the Flicky that tried to escape before hitting it with a missile, and is more miffed when rapidly firing at Tails than anything else, as opposed to Hocke-Wulf's giddiness or Bearanger's fury. This could mean that Carrottia's flirtatiousness in her debut was merely an act of taunting, an act she dropped after already losing to Tails once.

Enemies[]
Battle[]
Carrottia appears at the end of Metal Island, riding around in a flying vehicle resembling a carrot.
Boss guide[]
During the battle, Carrottia has two types of attacks. One is where she crossfires small carrot-shaped homing missiles, which Tails can dispatch with his Boomering, rewarding a hundred points each. The second attack is where she blows kisses at Tails, which the player can knock away with Tails' Boomering. Getting hit by either attack will stun Tails. Unlike Witchcart's other henchmen, Carrottia is too fast to be caught and thus cannot be tossed by Tails' Boomering, forcing the player to land twenty hits with the Boomering to defeat Carrottia.

Flying Off the Rails[]
Carrottia, from Sonic the Hedgehog: Tails' 30th Anniversary Special.
Carrottia would come to Flicky Island with Witchcart and the other Witchcarters. After conquered the island, they went to capture the island's Flickies so that Witchcart could use them for her diabolical plans. Initially doing very little to help, Carrottia rushed to Rusty Ruin to capture more Flickies after being yelled at by Witchcart.
From there, Carrottia was content singing the Flickies to go into their cages under the threat of being hit by her missiles, though Tails came to stop her. He snuck up under her vehicle and removed one of the missile launchers, but Carrottia noticed him and fired all her remaining missiles at him. However, all her missiles missed and created a smokescreen, adding to the already dense fog, providing cover for Tails to hide in.
All the Flickies then flew around, silhouetted by the smoke, leaving Carrottia unable to tell which one was Tails. While Carrottia was distracted, Tails then flew behind her and pulled some wires out of her vehicle, causing it to stop functioning and fall into a pit. Trapped, Carrottia then gave up and went to sleep.[3]
Trivia[]
- Carrottia's name is derived from "carrot", a vegetable that rabbits are famously known to eat in pop culture thanks to cartoons.
- In the Japanese box artwork for Tails' Skypatrol, not only is her bow incorrectly colored red instead of pink, but her ears are also incorrectly colored red to match her bow, making it appear as if they are part of the bow itself. Her carrot-shaped vehicle also looks more like a realistic carrot.
- In IDW Publishing, Carrottia's dress was inspired by the one worn by Patty, a character in the Shogakukan Sonic the Hedgehog series.
