The Egg Monitor[note 1] is an object that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is a floating pod created by Dr. Eggman to communicate with others from a distance.

Description[]

The Egg Monitor sports gyrating telecommunication dishes on the sides, an antenna at the top, and a screen at the center.
