This makes Uni Uni variants hard to defeat or even hard to dodge. It simply keeps hovering forward, never stopping in place. In many game appearances, Uni-Uni's spike balls are seen rotating around the core body laterally, while in ''[[Sonic Lost World]]'', they are rotating around the core body horizontally depending the gameplay perspective. |

The Uni Uni (ウニウニ?),[1][2] also known as simply Orbinaut,[3][4] is a recurring enemy in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. They are Badniks created by Dr. Eggman which made first appearance in Sonic the Hedgehog (1991). Uni Uni is a green variety of mass produced Orbinaut Badniks that keeps the four yellow spiked balls around it for defense. Besides a different paint job from Unidasu, they are programmed with different attack patterns.
Appearance
Uni-Uni belongs to Sea Urchin-like Badniks called integrally as Orbinauts. Because of this, Uni Uni has a similar appearance compared to other variations. It has green core body with wide eyes and four yellow spike balls floating around its core body.
In Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I, its appearance is detailed; it has two lines going all-around, with one going side direction and two black bases on each side. In Sonic Lost World, Uni-Uni retains its original look with more though like other Badniks in the game, they have also cyan colored eye pupils on their fainted looking eyes.
Powers and abilities
As an Orbinaut, Uni-Uni keeps its spike balls spinning around in slow speed, unlike Unidasu which releases all of them to its victims; thus it can be considered more of a defensive rather than offensive model. This makes Uni Uni variants hard to defeat or even hard to dodge. It simply keeps hovering forward, never stopping in place. In many game appearances, Uni-Uni's spike balls are seen rotating around the core body laterally, while in Sonic Lost World, they are rotating around the core body horizontally depending the gameplay perspective.
Game appearances
Sonic the Hedgehog (1991)
First appearing in the original Sonic the Hedgehog, these Orbinauts can be found hovering around at highways of Star Light Zone. As it is mentioned earlier, it is hard to avoid them at high speed. The player can avoid it by doing a Spin Attack under of it and ignore it completely. However, it can only be defeated while the player is invincible, at times while the player has to hit it very carefully, or when player has already taken a hit and has a quick moment to retaliate with momentary invulnerability.
In the 8-bit the game with same name, these Orbinauts appear only in the first act of Sky Base. The Badnik's appearance is also different, as they have a pinkish core surrounded by spiked yellow orbs. Despite this, it behaves identically to its 16-bit counterpart, but like all Badniks in Master System and Game Gear titles, it doesn't have Animals as a power source.
Sonic Rivals
Uni Uni appears in Sonic Rivals, only being featured as collectible card. It is again known just as Orbinaut.
Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I
Both Uni Uni and Unidasu variants make a reappearance in Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I, as both types appear in Lost Labyrinth Zone with slightly upgraded models. Despite that, both types appear to have similar attack patterns. However, Uni Uni will actually expand its spike balls in wider area once it detects Sonic.
Sonic Colors
Uni Uni also makes an appearance in the Nintendo DS version of Sonic Colors as being featured at Planet Wisp, Aquarium Park and Asteroid Coaster. They have an appearance closely similar to Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I, it appears both of ground and underwater sections.
Some of them can be seen blocking path openings and there are also ones that moves only up and down. The only way to destroy them is using drill or laser Whisp powers. Underwater sections of same level have big sea mines, which look like one of Orbinaut's spike balls.
Sonic Lost World
Uni-Uni at 3D sections in Wii U version of Sonic Lost World
Both Uni Uni and Unidasu appear in Sonic Lost World, where Uni Uni types are featured as recurring enemies. During the game, it turns out that Badniks (Orbinauts included) got hijacked by the Deadly Six. Uni Uni types of Orbinauts are found at Windy Hill Zones 1 and 2, Frozen Factory Zones 1 and 4, Silent Forest Zone 4 and Sky Road Zone 4 in Wii U version of the game. In Nintendo 3DS version, they are found at Tropical Coast Zones 2 and 3, Frozen Factory Zones 1 and 3 and Sky Road Zone 1.
In 2.5D side scrolling sections in Wii U version, Orbinauts are seen either hovering back and forth or at one place while spinning their spike balls laterally, as many of these Badniks can create huge enemy wall. In the Wii U version exclusively, they are seen dropping its spiked balls when the player has locked his Focused Homing Attack on them. As defenseless, they can be also defeated by performing just Spin Jump.
During main 3D sections in Wii U version and through the whole Nintendo 3DS version of the game, Uni-Uni is seen rotating its spiked balls around the core body horizontally, while moving towards the player when Sonic is close to them. In Nintendo 3DS version, Uni-Uni is usually seen placed individually or in groups with different Badniks, but they don't drop spike balls like in Wii U version and the player should try hit the Badnik above without touching its spike balls.
In other media
Sonic the Hedgehog Story Comic
A single Orbinaut appears briefly in Sonic the Hedgehog Story Comic Volume 2's story Clash!! South Island. In Star Land Zone, it quickly appears in front of Sonic, who used the seesaw to get Egg Capsule. As the Orbinaut tries to stop him, Sonic uses Spin Attack which knocks Orbinaut from his way.

A single Orbinaut appears in earlier issues of Archies Sonic the Hedgehog comics as part of Robotnik's badniks. In the comics its coloring has varied in many stories, as in earlier issues it is colored as dark blue orb with spike balls, but since issue 40, it has a green and yellow color scheme.
Robotnik first announced the Orbinaut in Casino Night Zone and after that he tested it for Sonic, who gets knocked out by one of its spiked balls. However Sonic used Spin Attack to deflect two more spiked balls, which got sent back to the Orbinaut itself. It later tries to attack Tails with Buzz Bomber but got knocked down by his own spike balls which Tails sends back. Instead of being at Robo Hobo Jungle fighting Sonic, he's later seen informing Robotnik that Sonic was spotted in the badlands during the Mecha Madness being backfired. He's also later seen fighting with several other badniks against Sonic and Bunnie Rabbot at robot bar called Rusty's.
Orbinaut doesn't appear for long time until Sonic decided to visit in the Island of Misfit Badniks, where Orbinaut and numerous other badniks nabbed him. Usually Sonic quickly beat all badniks, but as Pseudo-Sonic arrives, the duel between them makes the island sink down. Badniks with Orbinaut return with revenge plan with enlarging Pseudo-Sonic, but got interrupted by the Forty Fathom Freedom Fighters. While Orbinaut saw them interfering him, he lost to P.B. Jellyfish. Later all of them got crushed by Big Fluke into a cube.
Sonic X (comics)
In the Sonic X comic series published by Archie Comics, a group of Uni-Uni Badniks appear in a virtual reality version of Star Light Zone. As they keep moving slowly forward, Sonic, Knuckles, Amy and Rouge are seen ducking under of them.[5]
Trivia
- Uni-Uni is the most appeared variation of Orbinaut through the Sonic the Hedgehog series, as making most of its appearances in games and comics.
- In Sonic X issue 11, Uni-Unis have a dark blue appearance with orange spike balls at Star Light Zone, as this is the color scheme that Unidasu generally uses in Sonic the Hedgehog (1991).
- Orbinaut is one of the Badniks that hasn't been featured in character bios of Sonic Archives.
