The Wocky (ウッキー, Ukkī^?), also known as the Wookie, is a creature that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is a race of small monkey Animals residing in different places around Sonic's world, such as West Side Island, and are close friends of Sonic the Hedgehog and his allies. They are known for having been targeted by Dr. Robotnik who seeks to use them as power sources for his Badniks and imprison them in Capsules for later use.

They also have small torsos with pink bellies, long arms with pink-skinned four-fingered hands, stubby legs with long pink-skinned three-toed feet, and a long thin tail each.

Game appearances

Sonic the Hedgehog 2

The Wockies first appeared in Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (16-bit). In this game, the Wockies, along with the other Animals on Westside Island, were captured by Dr. Robotnik and turned into energy sources for the doctor's Badniks which Robotnik needed to finish the Death Egg. The Wockies can be found in Hill Top Zone, Metropolis Zone and Wing Fortress Zone, where they pop out of destroyed Badniks or opened Capsules.

Sonic Spinball

In the 16-bit version of Sonic Spinball, a Wocky can be found in the first and third Bonus Stages of the game. Here, Wocky is imprisoned in either a purple and grey canisters in the first Bonus Round or the regular Capsule in the third Bonus Round. The player's objective in these Rounds is to break these containers and rescue Wocky along with the other prisoners.

Sonic Rush

In Sonic Rush, a Wocky makes a cameo in the ending of Sonic the Hedgehog's story, where it joined the other characters in celebrating Sonic's victory.

Sonic Mania

In Sonic Mania and its expansion Sonic Mania Plus, when the player destroys the Metal Sonic hologram at the end of Stardust Speedway Zone Act 2, a few Wockies will occasionally appear until they are chased off by Metal Sonic.

Trivia

• Of the animals introduced in Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Wocky appears the most, being in three more games following its debut.
• Wocky is the only animal introduced in either Sonic the Hedgehog or Sonic the Hedgehog 2 that, as of version 1.05.0713 of Sonic Mania and Sonic Mania Plus, still only appears after breaking the Metal Sonic hologram in Stardust Speedway Zone and not out of the Badniks of any Zone.
