'''Vector the Crocodile''' is a character from the ''{{wp|Sonic the Hedgehog}}'' series. He is the loud-mouthed leader of the [[sonicretro:Team Chaotix|Chaotix Detective Agency]], which he runs with his friends [[Espio]] and [[Charmy]]. Vector made his first game appearance in ''[[sonicretro:Knuckles' Chaotix|Knuckles' Chaotix]]'', becoming a recurring character ever since being brought back for ''[[sonicretro:Sonic Heroes|Sonic Heroes]]''. In the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'']] franchise, Vector appears throughout the [[Mario & Sonic (series)|''Mario & Sonic'']] series as a playable character of the Power type.
==History==
===''Mario & Sonic'' series===
====''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games''====
Vector appears in ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games]]''. As a Power type character, he can excel in any event that requires strength possessing the second highest power in the game, but he is more difficult to use in running events as a consequence: he's tied with Waluigi for the second worst speed in the game, and his skill is low, tied with both [[Bowser]] and [[Knuckles]]. His stamina is also tied with Bowser, only losing to Wario. He also has his own swimming stroke, called the Crocodile Paddle. His main rival is Bowser, whom he has to beat in the Mission Mode in both the Wii and DS version. Clearing all the mission will award the player with the Vector Emblem, while getting a Gold Medal in every Event with him will unlock the Vector Crown.


Vector's missions in the game are as follows:
'''Vector the Crocodile''', usually just called '''Vector''', is a character in the [[:Category:Sonic the Hedgehog Series|''Sonic the Hedgehog'' series]], and the leader of Team Chaotix. He and his team will do anything for money, as long as it doesn't break the law. He is a playable character in [[Mario & Sonic (series)|''Mario & Sonic'' series]]. He is a power character. The other members of Team Chaotix, [[Espio the Chameleon]] and [[Charmy Bee]], are referees in this game. He is the only playable character in Team Sonic to not have his own trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. However, Vector does appear as a collectible [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|Sticker]]. In ''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games'' and its Winter version, he takes his model from ''[[SonicRetro:Sonic Heroes|Sonic Heroes]]'' and was voiced by [[Wikipedia:Dan Green|Dan Green]], who also voiced [[Knuckles the Echidna]]. He is currently being voiced by Keith Silverstein.

====''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games''====
Vector returns as a playable Power type character in ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games]]''. He also gains two new special abilities: When using the Head Slide, Vector falls down on his stomach head-first and moves like a swimming crocodile to accelerate or break through obstacles. Exclusive to the Rocket Ski Jump event in the [[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (Nintendo DS)|DS version]], Vector can blow up his Gum Balloon to use air streams to his advantage and move at a faster pace. In the [[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (Wii)|Wii version]], the Vector Emblem can be unlocked by earning a Gold Medal in every event with him, while in the DS version it is rewarded if the player clears ten missions in Adventure Tours with Vector. A Vector suit for the player's [[Mii]] can be bought in the [[Christmas Village]], giving the Mii Vector's stats.


In the Adventure Tours mode in the [[Nintendo DS]] version, Vector is first mentioned in [[Cubyrinth]] when [[Charmy]] refuses to open a gate unless they bring his friend with them. Later in [[Icepeak]], Vector is seen next to a mission sign and becomes irritated when [[Toad]] calls for him loudly. Upon seeing [[Mario]] and [[Sonic]], he greets the gang and becomes curious about [[Donkey Kong]]. After a short conversation about music, Vector asks Donkey Kong for a [[Short Track 500m]] race to honor their first meeting. After losing to the ape, Vector admits the Chaotix actually came to do research about the mysterious Whitestones, but he got caught up in training for his favorite event. He then decides to join the group on their adventure to have an alibi in front of his two colleagues. He also shamefully remembers having abandoned Charmy in Cubyrinth, so he asks them to head there next.
===''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games''===
In the [[Adventure Tours]] mode in the [[Nintendo DS]] version, Vector the Crocodile is first mentioned by [[Charmy Bee]] when [[Mario]], [[Sonic the Hedgehog]], and [[Toad]] run into him when the bee refused to let the trio get pass him. Toad then tells Charmy they will let him know when they see Vector.


On their way, they meet [[Espio]], whom Toad tells about Vector's performance on the Short Track 500m event, breaking his secret. Espio is angry at Vector for neglecting his duties, but is willing to finish their research alone. Back in Cubyrinth, Charmy is still guarding the gate and Vector feels sorry for him, but quickly gets mad when the bee refuses to open, believing Vector might be an imposter due to not remembering the password. However, Vector then recalls they did not agree on a password, but on a quiz about the Olympic Games, which triggers Vector's minigame "Quiz Time". After answering five questions right within 45 seconds, Charmy is finally persuaded and opens the gate, happy to see his friend again.  
Later in [[Icepeak]], Vector is seen next to a mission sign and he knows Mario and doesn't know that if Sonic is with him. He tells the trio he will join the group if [[Donkey Kong]] defeats the music-loving crocodile in a match of [[Speed Skating|Short Track 500m]]. Once Donkey Kong defeats Vector, he then joins the party.  


With his colleagues handling the Whitestones investigation, Vector tags along with the others and later cheers on Mario and Sonic during their final confrontation with [[Dr. Eggman]] and [[Bowser]]. Afterwards, the group decides to continue their adventure together and Vector dares to beat everyone in the Olympic events.
Toad then tells Vector that Charmy needs to see him back in Cubyrinth. When they arrive in Cubyrinth, Charmy tells Vector in order to open the gate, he must engage in a quiz based on Real and Dream Winter Olympic sports and the islands of the snow spirits. He tells him if he gets 5 questions correct within 45 seconds, he will open the gate and let them through. Vector succeeds, and they go through.  


====''Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games''====
Espio is seen when he tells his friend to let him know how many more whitestones are there in [[Sparkleton]], Cubyrinth, and Blizland. When all the whitestones are found in those islands, he gets surprised that there's none left when the player collects all of them.
Vector returns as a playable Power-type character in the [[Wii]] [[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Wii)|version]] of ''Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games'' where he appears in the opening competing in [[Canoe Sprint 1000m]] and [[Beach Volleyball (Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games for Wii)|Beach Volleyball]]. The [[Mii]] outfit based on Vector returns, and Vector appears as a character that can be spoken to in London Party mode. When spoken to, he will either trigger a [[Point-Based Shell Showdown!]] to award some London Eye stickers his detective agency was paid with or a [[2-on-2 Tablet Tussle!]] to return a Rosetta Stone replica to the [[British Museum]] for Vector stickers.


In the [[Nintendo 3DS]] [[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Nintendo 3DS)|version]] of the game, Vector is included in the Wild Ones group, meaning that he is only playable in certain [[Event]]s. In the story mode, Vector first appears chasing Bowser at [[Horse Guards Parade]] with [[Knuckles]], and challenges him to an Olympic Event when Sonic arrives. When Bowser is defeated, Knuckles clears the [[Phantasmal Fog]] from the area and stays behind with Vector to interrogate Bowser, although it later turns out that it was only a hologram of Bowser. Vector later calls Mario, [[Luigi]], Sonic and [[Tails]] when they face Bowser and Dr. Eggman to offer them support, and appears at the opening ceremony. Vector also appears in the bonus episode [[The Life of a Minion]], where he is tricked into competing with Bowser by some of his minions and ultimately loses the event. A [[List of badges in Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Nintendo 3DS)|badge]] of Vector can also be obtained from the badge machine.
===''Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games''===
In the story mode in the [[Nintendo 3DS]] version of the game, Sonic arrives at the Volleyball court and is almost killed by [[Bowser]] as he surprise attacks. [[Knuckles the Echidna]] and Vector the Crocodile helps out and challenges him to an event and lets Sonic go. They defeat him and he runs away to escape before Sonic crushes his machine. The Wild Ones destroy the machine and Sonic and Tails move on.

In Legends Showdown mode, where the cast of playable characters join forces to win the Legends Trophy, Vector teams up with [[Daisy]], [[Luigi]] and [[Shadow (character)|Shadow]] to take on area 3 of the mysterious castle and retrieve the yellow key. Upon arriving at the castle grounds, mysterious doppelgangers emerge from their shadows, challenging them to multiple events and retreating to higher platforms after each of the team's victory, before disappearing altogether. As Vector and the others finally reach the gate, however, the yellow key starts glowing and summons [[Jet (Sonic the Hedgehog)|Jet]]. After beating him in Snowboard Parallel Giant Slalom, they finally get the key and move on. Meeting up with the other teams at the top of the castle, Vector and the others are finally ready to retrieve the Legends Trophy, but suddenly [[Eggman Nega]], [[Dry Bowser]] and [[Rouge]] appear, ready to steal both the keys and the prize for themselves. Vector and the others manage to beat them in the final event, Winter Sports Champion Race, and then start to celebrate as the Legends Trophy is finally unlocked from its cage.
