— The Freedom Fighter leaders, "Cry of the Wolf"

The Freedom Fighters are an organization that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog television series. They are a group of five resistance movements that was formed individually to overthrow the tyrannical dictatorship of Dr. Robotnik. These scattered groups eventually united under the goal of stopping the Doomsday Project.

History[]

TV series[]

Past[]

The five Freedom Fighter factions were first formed to overthrow Dr. Robotnik following his coup and subsequent takeover of Mobotropolis in the year 3224.[1] However, each Freedom Fighter group was formed independently and waged their own private agendas against Robotnik's empire at their outposts, oblivious to the existence of the other groups. By unknown means, the groups became known to Princess Sally's father, the King of Mobotropolis, who obtained a list of all five Freedom Fighter groups on Mobius.[2][3] One thing the majority of the groups sought was the king's daughter, Princess Sally.[1]

Season two[]

Eventually, the Freedom Fighter Ari got the information on the King's list and the other Freedom Fighters. Around 3235, Ari found the Knothole Freedom Fighters and told them of the existence of the other Freedom Fighter groups, although the Knothole Freedom Fighters were sceptic, as they had never heard of other Freedom Fighters before. Also, what they did not know, was that Ari was helping Robotnik lead Sonic into a trap. As it were, Robotnik had captured Ari's Freedom Fighters, and Robotnik had promised Ari that he would left his comrades go if he helped him get rid of Sonic. After luring Sonic into Robotnik's trap however, Ari saw that Robotnik had broken his promise when the doctor revealed that he had roboticized Ari's Freedom Fighters. Luckily, Ari escaped the same fate when Sally and Dulcy came to his rescue. Ari then helped save Sonic when the latter was about to be pulled into the Void. Although Ari ended up getting imprisoned in the Void himself, he managed to tell Sonic of the list of the other Freedom Fighters that the King had.[2]

Eventually, the Knothole Freedom Fighters managed to acquire the King's list of the Freedom Fighter groups and free Ari from the Void.[3] Soon after, the Knothole Freedom Fighters saw fit to establish a Freedom Fighters network between the groups. As such, they traveled to the Great Unknown in search of the Wolf Pack Freedom Fighters. After finding them, the Wolf Pack was able to help them make contact with the Southern and Eastern Freedom Fighters. The leaders of each Freedom Fighter unit soon after met up in Knothole Village where they made an oath to stop Dr. Robotnik's Doomsday Project together.[4]

Eventually, all five groups of Freedom Fighters came to Knothole Village to discuss their plan to attack Dr. Robotnik's Doomsday Machine at the night of the Doomsday Project. Coming up with a plan, the Freedom Fighter groups attack the Doomsday Machine with decoys while s strike team made of the Knothole Freedom Fighters snuck into the Doomsday Machine. During the operations, almost all the Freedom Fighter leaders involved in the attack got captured. Fortunately, they managed to escape after Sonic and Sally used the Deep Power Stones to destroy the Doomsday Machine, seemingly getting rid of Robotnik in the process. The Freedom Fighters then returned to Knothole Village to celebrate the defeat of Dr. Robotnik.[5]

List of groups[]

Tactics[]

Freedom Fighter groups typically act as individual cells that fight Dr. Robotnik and his forces at their various outposts across Mobius. Each group consists of several members, although It has been rare for any group to have more than a dozen members. Typically, they prefer to use espionage, sabotage and guerrilla warfare.

Initially, the different Freedom Fighter cells were dispersed and most of them lacked any contact with each other. However, they have recently begun to work together on missions in order to stop Dr. Robotnik's growing threats.

Trivia[]

  • Originally, there were plans to introduce more Freedom Fighter groups onto the show, including a "Jungle Freedom Fighter" group in season 2. However, these plans had to be dropped due to ABC requiring the writers to include additional episodes centered around Antoine Depardieu.[citation needed]
