Dr. Eggman
Dr. Eggman, also known by his real name Dr. Ivo Robotnik, is a persistent enemy and the arch nemesis of Sonic the Hedgehog, much in the same manner as Bowser opposes Mario. The doctor is a genius with an IQ of 300. He is 48 years old in archie comics but game play data suggests that his age is 50+.

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.
