The Rabibin[1] (ラビビーン[2] Rabibīn?) is an enemy that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is a mass-produced, rabbit-based Badnik created by Dr. Eggman.
Appearance[]
The Rabibins are loosely based on rabbits. They have a yellow head, red eyes with black sclera, and long, white ears. Additionally, instead of a body, they have a single mechanical foot. Strangely enough, this foot is hexagonal in-game, but it is rounder in Rabibin's artwork.
Overview[]
A Rabibin in Meta Junglira Zone.
In Sonic the Hedgehog Triple Trouble, Rabbins are only encountered in Meta Junglira Zone. In gameplay, they tend to leap off of tree trunks into the player's path. In addition, they slowly hop forward, each time taking a brief moment to gather momentum for their jump. They make no effort to actually harm the player, as after a few hops they will turn around. The player can easily defeat these Badniks with a standard Spin Jump or Spin Attack.
Like other Badniks in the game, no Animals come out of the Rabibins when they are destroyed.
Powers and abilities[]
Rabibins have a singular foot they use to hop around, although it is not reliable at times, since they have to wait before making another jump, leaving them vulnerable.
Trivia[]
- The Rabibins are similar to Splats, a scrapped Badnik from the original Sonic the Hedgehog, as both are rabbit-based Badniks who attack by hopping all over the place.
