The Rocko is an enemy that appears in Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal. They are a type of robot with weapons for hands.
Appearance
The Rockos are purple robots with gray joints. Their upper body resembles a hunchbacked and bulky humanoid torso with a point where the head should be. On their chest they have a thick neck connected to a large purple eye with a slit-like pupil, green sclera and horned eyelids. They also have round shoulders, thin upper arms, thick forearms with guns for hands and a bowl-shaped pelvis with small rockets on it.
Overview
Lyric the Last Ancient created the Rockos in the Robot Facility five millennia ago to help him destroy the earth's lifeforms and conquer it.[1] During an attack on the remaining Ancients however, the Rockos were shut down when Lyric was imprisoned.[1][2] In the present, they were recovered by Lyric after he escaped to search for the Crystal Shards and battle Team Sonic too.
The Rockos can be found in Shadow Canyons and Volcanic Caverns. In gameplay, they constantly hover in a stationary position in midair. While usually idle, they take aim at the player once they spot a character before firing shots that home slightly in on their target. After a few seconds however, their shots will disappear. The Rockos are often placed (sometimes in rows) so the player can cross gaps or reach out-of-reach areas by targeting the Rockos from afar with the Homing Attack. Also, even after the player manages to destroy a Rocko, another will later respawn to take its place. Additionally, the ninth Toy the player purchases from Q-N-C's Toy Shop will be a Rocko figurine.
After Team Sonic and Shadow defeated Lyric, the Rockos were stopped once more.
Personality
Mindless and silent drones, the Rockos are first and foremost unwaveringly loyal to Lyric the Last Ancient, having been programmed to obey his every command.[1] As per their design, they aim to bring down any and all targets.
Powers and abilities
Thank to their small rockets, the Rockos can levitate in midair. They can also fire energy blasts from their hand guns.
