Eggman's Dozen[]
While on a mission to recover his refinery from the Naugus Twins, Dr. Eggman followed Axel the Water Buffalo in his Egg Driller. Unfortunately, a sudden hit from a Dark Gaia Titan nearly made him and his vehicle fall into a lava pool.[5] However, Axel managed to pull them to safety and Eggman used the Egg Driller to drill through the Dark Gaia Titan. Afterwards, Eggman and Axel rendezvoused with the other Egg Bosses to face the Naugus Twins.[1] During the fight against the Naugus Twins, the doctor used his vehicle to battle Wendy and Crystal Sonic until it got destroyed by the latter.[2]
