| '''Egg Pawns''' are a crossover species from the ''{{wp|Sonic the Hedgehog}}'' franchise and one of [[Dr. Eggman]]'s many creations. Egg Pawns in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] appear only in the ''[[Mario & Sonic (series)|Mario & Sonic]]'' series, most commonly as obstacles in [[Dream Event]]s, but later installments use Egg Pawns as extra team members in certain [[event]]s that require larger team sizes. | |
|
| |
|
| ==History==
| | Egg Pawns also appear in the Mario series, acting as obstacles in some of the Dream Events of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games]]'' and ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games]]''. In the Wii version of [[Dream Race]], two of them are walking in the middle of the circuits, blocking other players. When a player runs into them, at the slightest touch, they will explode, stunning the player for a second. This also greatly decreases his/her speed, and he/she has to gain speed all over again. After one has exploded, they are soon replaced after another lap is complete. They appear as targets in the DS-exclusive [[Dream Shooting]], along with [[Kiki]]s and [[Flapper (robot)|Flappers]]. |

| Egg Pawns first appear in ''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games''. In the [[Wii]] [[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Wii)|version]], Egg Pawns appear in [[Dream Race (Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games for Wii)|Dream Race]], where a pair of them appear as obstacles on the track moving at a slow speed. When the player collides with them, the Egg Pawns will explode and cause the character to be temporarily stunned lose speed, though the Egg Pawns will shortly respawn.

|
| In the [[Nintendo DS]] [[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Nintendo DS)|version]], regular Egg Pawns appear as targets in [[Dream Shooting]], as well as a variety with a shield that take multiple shots to destroy. A giant Egg Pawn with a shield acts as a final boss for the event, which takes a large number of hits for the characters to defeat but awards a larger point score to the character that gets the last hit. Egg Pawns also appear as enemies for the player to hit in [[Shoot!]], and as a character to be sorted in [[Conveyor Belt (minigame)|Conveyor Belt]]. | | In ''Winter Games'', they appear in [[Dream Alpine]], [[Dream Snowboard Cross]], and Sonic's version of [[Dream Figure Skating]]. In the first two, they serve as obstacles. Unlike the first game, however, they do not explode on contact; they simply slow the player down without even noticing. In Dream Figure Skating, they appear in phase 2 of the Sonic world. Jumping at the specified time will cause the player to jump on it, defeating it. Sometimes, the player will jump on a [[Spring]] then jump on it. |
| | |
| ===''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games''===
| |
| In ''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games'', Egg Pawns appear as basic obstacles in both the [[Dream Alpine (Individual)|Individual]] and [[Dream Alpine (Team)|Team]] versions of Dream Alpine and the [[Dream Snowboard Cross (Individual)|Individual]] and [[Dream Snowboard Cross (Team)|Team]] versions of Dream Snowboard Cross, where they cause the player to fall over and lose speed when hit. The Egg Pawns can be destroyed if they hit by a character under the effects of the [[Super Star]]. Egg Pawns also appear in the second segment of the Sonic World version of [[Dream Figure Skating]], where the characters jump from [[Spring (Sonic the Hedgehog)|Springs]] to defeat them during the routine.
