Shadow (character)

Shadow the Hedgehog is a prominent anti-hero in the Sonic the Hedgehog series of video games like Wario from the Mario series. He was created to be the ultimate life-form by Dr. Eggman's grandfather, Gerald Robotnik. Shadow does whatever is necessary to achieve his goals, and because of this he has fought both alongside and against Sonic the Hedgehog. Shadow's primary abilities are his supersonic speed and ability to use Chaos Emeralds to manipulate time and space. In Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, he is voiced by Jason Anthony Griffith, who also voices Sonic.

History

Shadow is a playable character in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, where he is on Sonic's team. His character type is Speed, tieing him with Sonic. He is set to reappear in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games.

Trivia

• Shadow is left-handed, as shown in the game, Shadow the Hedgehog. However, in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, he uses an epée with his right hand. This is likely because the Wii controls for that game were designed for right-handed players. (Of course, he very well may be ambidextrous.)
