⚫ | |||
+ | Over twenty years ago, Momma Robotnik lived in a house in [[Chaos City]] with her son, [[Doctor Ivo Robotnik (Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog)|Dr. Robotnik]], when the latter was just an infant. When the family moved, Momma Robotnik left her son's favorite toy, the [[Fuzzy Wuzzy]], in that house.

For example, she had no mustache in Episode 35, "[[The Last Resort (Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog)|The Last Resort]]", but then in episode 40, "[[Zoobotnik]]", she had a mustache again. |

Momma Robotnik then forced Sonic to do a large series of chores while threatening that, if he did not obey her, she would drop Tails into a bottomless pit. Meanwhile, she would use her son's transmitter to take over every machine on the planet.

When the doctor asked her of why she went to the ceremony, she told him that an unknown person told her that her son was being married and would ruin his life.

History
TV series
Past
Over twenty years ago, Momma Robotnik lived in a house in Chaos City with her son, Dr. Robotnik, when the latter was just an infant. When the family moved, Momma Robotnik left her son's favorite toy, the Fuzzy Wuzzy, in that house. Apparently, this act made Dr. Robotnik the villain he became today according to her, although it may not be accurate as she told the story to Tails in order to lure him into a trap.[1] At some point in the past, Momma Robotnik was taken to the Mobius Home for Really Bizarre Mothers due to her low level of care for her son.
Season one
On her birthday, Momma Robotnik escaped from the Mobius Home for Really Bizarre Mothers and went to her son's fortress, much for the latter's surprise. She wanted him to destroy the entire Mobius National Park, although the project was halted due to Sonic the Hedgehog's interferences. Later, she decided to kidnap Tails, Sonic's best friend, as use him as bait to catch Sonic. However, due to her own son, the plan did not work. She was then found by the staff of the Mobius Home for Really Bizarre Mothers and taken back to the home.[1]
Tired of being asked by her friends about when her son would defeat Sonic and conquer Mobius, Momma Robotnik escaped from the Mobius Home for Really Bizarre Mothers, took over her son's fortress and his creations (including a transmitter that controlled every machine on Mobius), and managed to adopt Sonic and Tails as her sons. Momma Robotnik then forced Sonic to do a large series of chores while threatening that, if he did not obey her, she would drop Tails into a bottomless pit. Meanwhile, she would use her son's transmitter to take over every machine on the planet. However, due to Dr. Robotnik and Sonic's interference, her intentions were revealed to the law, and she was taken back to the Mobius Home for Really Bizarre Mothers.[2] Sometime later, Momma Robotnik would assist her son with his evil plan to trick Sonic into thinking he had retired".[3]
Later, Momma Robotnik was invited by Sonic to Dr. Robotnik's marriage with Katella, and went to the latter's ship, where the ceremony was being held. Angry that Katella did not invite her, she started a violent fight with her. Upset, Katella cancelled the marriage, dumped Dr. Robotnik, Momma Robotnik, Scratch, and Grounder out of her ship, and flew away. When the doctor asked her of why she went to the ceremony, she told him that an unknown person told her that her son was being married and would ruin his life. When Robotnik told her the truth that Katella forced him to marry her, Momma Robotnik got angry because he told the truth since she had raised him to "always lie" and started to scold him.[4]
Sometime later, realizing that one of her friends' sons became president of his garden club, Momma Robotnik escaped from the Mobius Home for Really Bizarre Mothers and went to her son's fortress, forcing him to become elected as the president of Mobius. This also made Sonic run a campaign to become president of the planet as well. However, when Sonic managed to become president, the doctor realized that his mother voted for the hedgehog, as she thought that her son could not do anything right.
