Eggrobos or Egg Robos (エッグロボ, Eggrobo) are enemies from the Sonic games.

In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS

In Smash Run

Eggrobos appear as enemies. They hover in the air keeping their distance from the player, and are hard to hit directly. They attack by shooting energy projectiles: either three energy bullets which can be reflected and absorbed, or a thin and continuous beam.

North America These robots are one of Dr. Eggman's creations from the Sonic the Hedgehog series, where they tend to hover in the air and shoot at Sonic with their laser guns. In this game, they'll deliberately keep their distance while firing both short and long beams at the fighters. Get below them to avoid their fire, and then strike!

Origin

Eggrobos are robotic soldiers working for Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik, each of whom were built in his likeness. Eggrobos would attack Sonic and his friends with a potent blaster. Eggrobos first appeared in Sonic & Knuckles, acting as enemies. While Knuckles would face one that piloted an Egg Mobile (this Eggrobo emulated its creator's battle tactics and machines that he used in Sonic's version of those boss battles), all three playable characters (Sonic, Tails and Knuckles) would face hordes of Eggrobos when they went to Sky Sanctuary Zone in their efforts to not only save Angel Island and the Master Emerald, but destroy the Death Egg as well. The Eggrobos acted as the sole enemies of the level, a role they would later reprise in the Sonic Generations version of Sky Sanctuary Zone.
