Profile
Although the devious Dr. Eggman has great Skill-based abilities, he also is quite powerful. His huge, lumbering frame doesn't give the impression that he would be good at gymnastics, but believe it or not, he can handle the trampoline and vault quite well.

Dr. Eggman knows a great deal about robots, which is neat. He also knows how to turn animals INTO robots, which isn't so neat. You'd think a man with an IQ of 300 would stop going up against Sonic, but he keeps on trying, all to build a world around his Eggman Empire. | Can be found Randomly in different Modes or can be brought at Trophy Shop |

Trivia
- Dr. Eggman appears alongside Bowser and Zangief in the Disney film Wreck-It Ralph.
- Dr. Eggman's Japanese voice actor Chikao Otsuka also voiced Wario in the Japanese commercials for Wario Land games.
- In the Sonic the Hedgehog series, namely the Sonic Riders spin-off titles, Eggman is a Power character, but is strangely made a Skill character in Mario & Sonic crossovers. This may be to keep each character type at an equal 5 characters per type.
- Although his profile in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games states he is quite powerful, Power is one of his lowest stats in the game.
