It is a hovercraft created and very frequently piloted by [[Doctor Eggman]] as a personal means of transportation. The Egg Mobile is known for its versatility, being capable of travelling across all types of terrain and being armed with several weapons of its own. Its most enduring feature is its compatibility with Eggman's various vehicles and creations and serves as well as an escape pod when they are inevitably defeated by [[Sonic the Hedgehog|Sonic]] and his allies.

There are various versions of the Egg Mobile, as its design varies from incident to incident. Universally, it is a one-man, hovering craft with a spherical shape. The different versions of the vehicle are as follows:
*The Egg Mobile that first appeared during the [[South Island]] [[Sonic the Hedgehog (1991)|incident]] is a gray pod, with its lower part being completely black. It has two yellow, mechanical feet for landing and a single headlight on the front. Each side of the Egg Mobile has air seals, horizontal black and yellow stripes. Behind it is a propeller with a yellow metal shield on top. Inside, it has a low windshield, a blue seat, and a large control panel. Early on, the Egg Mobile had two small wings on the sides; these were changed with exhaust pipes over time.
*The Egg Mobile that debuted during the [[West Side Island]] [[Sonic the Hedgehog 2|incident]] looks sleeker and more mechanical compared to the previous version. Its front is circular, with a yellow windshield. Each side of the hovercraft has horizontal black and yellow hazard stripes, oblique tail pipes that curve in the upper horizontal direction, and small wings that has air seals under them and small motors behind them. Its back has a number plate reading "EGG".<ref>[[Media:Sonic-2-Eggmans-Mobile-Sketches.jpeg]]</ref> The cockpit has a steering wheel and a brown driving seat, while the bottom is black like before. In addition, the vehicle has retractable helicopter blades, but those are rarely used.
*The incarnation of the Egg Mobile that appeared during the [[Little Planet]] [[Sonic the Hedgehog CD|incident]] is lower and thinner at the bottom, but much wider. At the front, it has a gray [[Doctor Eggman|Eggman]] decal. It has four propulsion jets on it, one on its back and the other three on its underside, which activate and deactivate depending on the direction it is flying. 
*The variation of the Egg Mobile that appeared during the [[Angel Island]] [[Sonic 3 & Knuckles|incident]] is smaller and more simplistic than earlier designs. This time around, it does not have wings but instead two tail pipes. Its windshield is removed (but sometimes has a glass dome instead), and its seat is now yellow and is supported by a pole behind it.
*The version of the Egg Mobile that debuted during the [[Chaos]] [[Sonic Adventure|incident]] has an oval shape, and is much wider than previous incarnations. The front is gray in the middle, with a small, blue windshield, and a light blue/yellow headlight below. Each of the sides is light gray, with an orange line running through the middle, as well as black and yellow hazard stripes with handles. The cockpit is shown to have what appears to be a black touchscreen as a control panel. This Egg Mobile also has a blue seat, with its back being roughly the same shape but slightly larger. On the back, the motor is visible, and there are three propellers; two are on the sides and a slightly larger one is on the middle. As usual, the bottom of the craft is a black hemisphere.
*The version of the Egg Mobile that first appeared during the [[X-Zone]] [[Sonic Advance|incident]] is a rather small aircraft with a small windshield and two red and gray colored rocket engines on each side of its back. When this Egg Mobile turns around, it is shown to have small pipes with blue fire coming out on the its downside.
*The Egg Mobile that debuted during the [[Emerl]] [[Sonic Battle|incident]] is a round hovercraft that is mostly colored red, but still has its usual, black hemisphere at the bottom and the yellow headlight and windshield at the front. Each side has a small cannon.
*The variation of the Egg Mobile that first appeared during the [[Neo Metal Sonic]] [[Sonic Heroes|incident]] is a gray hovercraft that is somewhat shaped like a flying saucer. This version still has its usual windshield and yellow headlight, the latter of which is in between two small, orangish lights. On the back, the Egg Mobile features black and yellow hazard stripes. The main difference with other incarnations is that this variation no longer flies via propellers, but instead has some kind of propulsion system located at its bottom where ring-shaped beams are constantly being dissipated from it.
*During the [[Solaris]] [[Sonic the Hedgehog (2006)|incident]], the Egg Mobile featured a design completely different from all its other known appearances. Here, it was a completely gray/silver vehicle that was shaped as a long oval and was big enough to walk at least 20–30 feet on.
*The Egg Mobile that first appeared during the [[Dark Gaia]] [[Sonic Unleashed|incident]] is, once again, a gray pod that features the traditional black and yellow hazard stripes on the sides and two back engines with an extra one set on the black hemispherical underside that can fold out. The front of the craft has large a bolt on both the center's sides and two different sized glass lamps along the center. It also has a windshield and a retractable glass dome. Notably, the Egg Mobile is also given a detailed interior, featuring a plush seat for Eggman to sit on while piloting it and two handles for piloting it.
*During the [[Death Egg mk.II]] [[Sonic the Hedgehog 4|incident]], the Egg Mobile had more of a white color scheme, with longer wings on the sides and its hemispherical underside functioning as a hatch. It also had a heavier pilot seat on the cockpit.

===Features and abilities===
The Egg Mobile is capable of flight, and is known for its speed. Even when damaged, it can instantaneously accelerate at impressive speeds that rival [[Sonic the Hedgehog|Sonic]]'s own, even while carrying heavy objects such as the [[Master Emerald]].<ref>[[Sonic Team]], [[Sega Technical Institute]] (18 October 1994). ''[[Sonic & Knuckles]]''. [[Sega Mega Drive]]. [[Sega]]. Area/level: [[Death Egg Zone (Sonic & Knuckles)|Death Egg Zone]] Act 2.</ref> Also, since the Egg Mobile is an aircraft, it is a waterborne vehicle, and possesses excellent drift.<ref name="RSite">{{Cite web |publisher=[[Sonic Channel]] |url=http://sonic.sega.jp/sonicr/r/rchara.html |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20071009104444/http://sonic.sega.jp/sonicr/r/rchara.html |title=About Characters |accessdate=5 July 2015 |archivedate=9 October 2009 |language=Japanese}}</ref>

Perhaps the Egg Mobile's most notable feature is that it is designed to be fitted with a seemingly endless amount of mechs, serving as the cockpit for these. By modifying its attachments, it can travel across water, air, land, and even underground.<ref name="Sonic2JPManual" /> Also, when its attached mechas are destroyed, the Egg Mobile and its pilot will emerge relatively unscathed from the wreckage.

[[File:Sonic Battle Eggman fight.png|thumb|225px|The Egg Mobile in combat, from ''[[Sonic Battle]]''.]]
The Egg Mobile also possesses equipment of its own, though it has been inconsistently depicted through time; most commonly though, it has been shown weaponed with a claw. Other features it has had include sleeping gas and a small [[Mind Control Ray|mind control cannon]]. For combat, it is also equipped with electrical cords,<ref>[[Sonic Team]], [[Sega Technical Institute]] (18 October 1994). ''[[Sonic & Knuckles]]''. [[Sega Mega Drive]]. [[Sega]]. Area/level: [[Hidden Palace Zone]].</ref> [[Lock-On Missile|homing missiles]], and bombs.<ref name="Battle">[[Sonic Team]] (27 February 2004). ''[[Sonic Battle]]''. [[Game Boy Advance]]. [[Sega]]. Area/Level: [[Death Egg (Sonic Battle)|Death Egg]] ([[Emerl]]'s Episode).</ref> The Egg Mobile is additionally resistant to powerful blows from the likes of [[Knuckles the Echidna|Knuckles]] and [[Sonic the Werehog]]. If damaged enough, it can also activate a self-destruct mechanism that will make it ricochet around while exploding.<ref name="Battle" /> If forcibly grounded, the Egg Mobile also has an emergency reboot lever that requires repeated pulling out and pushing in to restart power.<ref name="Forces">[[Sonic Team]] (7 November 2017). ''[[Sonic Forces]]''. [[Sega]] Cutscene: Cutscene 013.</ref>
[[File:Eggmobileidw2.png|left|thumb|215x215px|The Egg Mobile's weapon attachments, from [[IDW Sonic the Hedgehog Issue 23|''Sonic the Hedgehog'' #23]].]]
In addition of serving as a means of transport, the Egg Mobile is equipped with multiple weapon accessories that allow it to be used as a means of combat, such as wrecking balls, saws and cannons.<ref name="StH23">[[IDW Sonic the Hedgehog Issue 23|''Sonic the Hedgehog'' #23]], "The Last Minute, Part 3"</ref> The Egg Mobile also has the ability to easily attach itself to Eggman's various mechs. becoming a cockpit for these machines from where Eggman controls them. Plus, if these machines are defeated, the Egg Mobile then serves as an escape pod, allowing the pilot to eject mostly unharmed from the larger machine.<ref name="StH32">[[IDW Sonic the Hedgehog Issue 32|''Sonic the Hedgehog'' #32]], "Recovery, Part 2"</ref><ref name="FCBD2022">''[[IDW Sonic the Hedgehog Free Comic Book Day 2022|Sonic the Hedgehog Free Comic Book Day 2022]]'', "Deep Trouble"</ref>

Despite being quite resistant to explosions,<ref name="StH32" /> it is not very solid from a structural point of view, since a single strong impact, such as a [[Spin Attack]], is capable of destroying it.<ref name="StH23" />

==Game appearances==
===''Sonic the Hedgehog'' (1991)===
[[File:Sonic 1 Egg Mobile.png|right]]
In the 16-bit version of [[Sonic the Hedgehog (1991)|''Sonic the Hedgehog'' (1991)]], and its various ports and remasters, the Egg Mobile, also carrying names like the '''Egg-O-Matic'''<ref>{{Cite book |author= |title=[[Stay Sonic]] |publisher=Fantail |page=18 |chapter=The Egg-O-Matic |last1=Pattenden |first1=Mike |date=4 January 1993 |isbn=978-0140903904 |quote= }}</ref> and the '''Robot-meister'''<ref name="S1&2Guide">{{Cite book |author=Prima Publishing |title=Sonic the Hedgehog 1 & 2: Sega's Official Player's Guide |publisher=Prima Publishing |page=28 |chapter=Sonic The Hedgehog for Sega Genesis |date=1993 |isbn=1-55958-335-5}}</ref> in contemporaneous sources, is the hovercraft used by [[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]]. Its add-ons are simply minor weapons on an otherwise unequipped craft. It is featured in the following levels:
*[[Green Hill Zone (Sonic the Hedgehog)|Green Hill Zone]]: [[Egg Wrecker]]
*[[Marble Zone]]: [[Egg Scorcher]]
*[[Spring Yard Zone]]: [[Egg Stinger (boss)|Egg Stinger]]
*[[Labyrinth Zone]]: [[Egg Mobile (boss)|Egg Mobile]]
*[[Star Light Zone]]: [[Egg Spiker]]

The Egg Mobile also makes an appearance at the end of Dr. Eggman's final confrontation in [[Final Zone]]. The doctor attempts to use it as he escapes quickly after the player defeats him in the [[Egg Crusher]]. During this, they can [[Spin Jump]] to damage the Egg Mobile, leading to the villain barely flying away in his own smoke. However, doing this is entirely optional and does not affect the rest of the game events that follow.

[[File:GHZ-Boss-8-Bit.png|right]]
In the 8-bit [[Sonic the Hedgehog (8-bit)|version]] of the game, the Egg Mobile reprises its role from the 16-bit version, and looks virtually the same. It appears in most boss fights, featuring a variety of simple add-ons that vary depending on the battle. The Egg Mobile is featured below:
*[[Green Hill Zone (Sonic the Hedgehog) (8-bit)|Green Hill Zone]]: [[Green Hill Zone boss (Sonic the Hedgehog) (8-bit)|Green Hill Zone boss]]
*[[Bridge Zone]]: [[Bridge Zone boss]]
*[[Jungle Zone]]: [[Jungle Zone boss]]
*[[Labyrinth Zone (Sonic the Hedgehog) (8-bit)|Labyrinth Zone]]: [[Labyrinth Zone boss (Sonic the Hedgehog) (8-bit)|Labyrinth Zone boss]]

At the end of game, after Eggman is defeated in [[Sky Base Zone]], he will escape by teleporting to [[Green Hill]], where he will be piloting the Egg Mobile, only to get struck down by a spinning Sonic, who teleports above his head, causing the damaged hovercraft to slowly fall down and crash with the doctor in it.

===''Sonic the Hedgehog 2''===
====8-bit====
[[File:But_seriously,_why_didn't_let_him_fall_to_the_death.png|thumb|left|225px|The Egg Mobile, from [[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (8-bit)|''Sonic the Hedgehog 2'' (8-bit)]].]]
The Egg Mobile appears briefly in [[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (8-bit)|''Sonic the Hedgehog 2'' (8-bit)]] as it is based on the original Egg Mobile from the first game. It first appears at the intro of the game, where Eggman kidnaps [[Miles Tails Prower|Tails]] with a yellow grabber attachment (which would later make infrequent appearances in the series).

It later appears at Act 3 of [[Under Ground Zone]], where Sonic falls to the lava and Eggman actually saves him with black claw that is set under the mobile (which later becomes horizontally rotating rotor), only to prevail upon the close of zone's boss, [[Pit Master]]. Eggman then starts to fire bouncing bombs to Sonic from off-screen, which only explodes on Pit Master's mouth. At the end, Eggman tries to drive towards Sonic but crashes on Pit Master, which finishes it off and Eggman flies away with his Egg Mobile. The Egg Mobile does not appear in the game after this as the rest of the Master Robot series takes its place.

====16-bit====
[[File:Sonic 2 Egg Mobile.png|right]]
In ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 2]]'', its various ports and re-releases, the [[Lock-on technology|lock-on]] game ''[[Knuckles in Sonic 2]]'', the Egg Mobile, known as {{Nihongo|'''Eggman's Mobile'''<ref name="Sonic2JPManual">''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 2]]'' ([[Sega Mega Drive]]) Japanese instruction manual, pg. 45.</ref>|エッグマンモービル<ref name="Sonic2JPManual" />|Egguman Mōbiru|lit. "Eggman Mobile"}}, returns as Dr. Eggman's means of transport. While drastically different from its past appearances, the craft retains its universal features. In gameplay, it is featured below:
*[[Emerald Hill Zone]]: [[Egg Drillster]]
*[[Chemical Plant Zone (Sonic the Hedgehog 2)|Chemical Plant Zone]]: [[Egg Poison]]
*[[Aquatic Ruin Zone]]: [[Egg Hammer (boss)|Egg Hammer]]
*[[Casino Night Zone (Sonic the Hedgehog 2)|Casino Night Zone]]: [[Catch Eggman|Egg Claw]]
*[[Hill Top Zone]]: [[Egg Scorcher Mark II|Egg Scorcher Mk. II]]
*[[Mystic Cave Zone]]: [[Egg Digger]]
*[[Hidden Palace Zone (Sonic the Hedgehog 2)|Hidden Palace Zone]] ([[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (2013)|2013 remaster]]): [[Brass Eggman]]
*[[Oil Ocean Zone]]: [[Eggmarine]]
*[[Metropolis Zone]]: [[Egg Bouncer]]

===''SegaSonic the Hedgehog''===
[[File:Eggmobileending.png|thumb|left|225px|The Egg Mobile, from ''[[SegaSonic the Hedgehog]]''.]]
In ''[[SegaSonic the Hedgehog]]'', the Egg Mobile sports the design from [[Sonic the Hedgehog (1991)|''Sonic the Hedgehog'' (16-bit)]], but the windshield is missing. It is seen at the title screen of the game as [[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]] is flying with it in the background. Another time is at the small ending cutscene after the credits, where the doctor flies in middle of the ocean until the Egg Mobile stops moving due to the lack of fuel and falls to the ocean with the villain screaming.

===''Sonic the Hedgehog CD''===
In ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog CD]]'', the [[PC|Windows 95]] [[Sonic the Hedgehog CD (Windows 95)|version]] and the [[Sonic the Hedgehog CD (2011)|2011 remaster]], the Egg Mobile is featured in the following boss battles:
*[[Palmtree Panic]]: [[EGG-HVC-001]]
*[[Collision Chaos]]: [[Egg Tilter]]
*[[Tidal Tempest]]: [[Egg Bubble]]

The Egg Mobile is featured once again in [[Stardust Speedway (Sonic the Hedgehog CD)|Stardust Speedway]]. As Sonic [[Metal Sonic (Sonic the Hedgehog CD)|races]] [[Metal Sonic]], Eggman will follow behind with the Egg Mobile. Throughout the race, it will fire a downwards laser that will make the player lose a life when touched, regardless of [[Ring]]s. When the player wins, Eggman will deactivate the laser and retreat.

===''Sonic Spinball''===
[[File:Spinball eggmobile.png|thumb|225px|The Egg Mobile in the 16-bit version of ''[[Sonic Spinball]]''.]]
The Egg Mobile is featured at the [[Bonus Stage (Sonic Spinball)|Bonus Stage]] of the 16-bit version of ''[[Sonic Spinball]]'', based on the ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 2]]'' design. At Bonus Stages, the player has to destroy all purple capsules behind the Egg Mobile with their pinball skills and then blow the mobile itself, leaving Eggman fainted on ground. If you try to blow the Egg Mobile before blowing purple capsules, it will bounce the ball back. It is also the final weapon in the 8-bit version of [[Showdown]].

===''Sonic Chaos''===
The cubic-shaped Egg Mobile appears in the intro and bad ending sequences of ''[[Sonic Chaos]]'', as Dr. Eggman away with the red [[Chaos Emerald]] in its grabber gadget. Sonic and Tails runs behind him, but he gets away. One of bosses, the [[Bouncy Boss Robot]] is basically an Egg Mobile which has a robotic Eggman drone firing projectiles and bouncing towards the player. The Egg Mobile itself is seen again in [[Electric Egg Zone]] where has been modified into the game's final boss, The [[Laser Walker]].

===''Sonic Drift'' series===
[[File:SSS SONIC4C.png|thumb|left|225px|[[Doctor Eggman]] with the Egg Mobile, modified into the [[Egg Typhoon (Sonic Drift)|Egg Typhoon]], from ''[[Sonic Drift]]''.]]
In ''[[Sonic Drift]]'' and ''[[Sonic Drift 2]]'', the Egg Mobile is known as the {{Nihongo|'''Eggman Mobile'''|エッグマンモービル<ref name="DriftManual">''[[Sonic Drift]]'' ([[Sega Game Gear]]) Japanese instruction booklet, pg. 29.</ref>|Egguman Mōbiru}}. In both games, it sports its appearance from ''Sonic 2'', and appears modified into the [[Egg Typhoon (Sonic Drift)|Egg Typhoon]], which serves as [[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]]'s personal racing vehicle.

===''Sonic 3 & Knuckles''===
[[File:SonicTailsKnucklesHPZ.PNG|thumb|225px|[[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]] in the Egg Mobile while stealing the [[Master Emerald]], from ''[[Sonic 3 & Knuckles]]''.]]
In ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 3]]'', ''[[Sonic & Knuckles]]'', and the lock-on game ''[[Sonic 3 & Knuckles]]'', the Egg Mobile is driven, in most cases, by [[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]], and appears at the end of most of the second Acts of several [[Zone]]s as a boss, while modified with varied attachments. These are featured below:
*[[Angel Island Zone]]: [[Egg Scorcher Mark III|Egg Scorcher Mk. III]]
*[[Hydrocity Zone]]: [[Egg Vortex]]
*[[Marble Garden Zone]]: [[Egg Drillster Mk II]]
*[[Carnival Night Zone]]: [[Egg Gravitron]]
*[[IceCap Zone]]: [[Egg Froster]]
*[[Launch Base Zone]]:
**[[Egg Cannon (boss)|Egg Cannon]]
**[[Egg Rocket (boss)|Egg Rocket]]
**[[Big Arms]]
*[[Mushroom Hill Zone (Sonic & Knuckles)|Mushroom Hill Zone]]: [[Egg Scrambler (boss)|Egg Scrambler]]
*[[Flying Battery Zone]]: [[Egg Hanger]]
*[[Sandopolis Zone]]: [[Egg Golem (Sonic & Knuckles)|Egg Golem]]
*[[Lava Reef Zone]]: [[Egg Inferno]]
*[[Sky Sanctuary Zone (Sonic & Knuckles)|Sky Sanctuary Zone]]:
**[[Egg Wrecker]] ([[Sonic the Hedgehog|Sonic]]/[[Miles "Tails" Prower|Tails]]; driven by [[Mecha Sonic Mark II|Mecha Sonic Mk. II]])
**[[Egg Bouncer]] (Sonic/Tails; driven by Mecha Sonic Mk. II)
*[[Death Egg Zone (Sonic & Knuckles)|Death Egg Zone]]: [[Giant Eggman Robo]]

The games also feature different cutscenes at certain points in which Eggman pilots the Egg Mobile. This is the case several times in [[Launch Base Zone]]. That Zone's Act 2 also has a sequence in which Sonic/Tails uses the hovercraft to get to the repaired [[Death Egg]]'s hangar. Furthermore, in Sonic/Tails' version of [[Hidden Palace Zone]], Eggman uses the Egg Mobile's claw to steal the [[Master Emerald]] from its [[Altar of Emerald|altar]].

While playing as [[Knuckles the Echidna|Knuckles]], an [[Eggrobo]] pilots the Egg Mobile instead of Dr. Eggman. In Sky Sanctuary Zone, the player will also inevitably get caught by the vehicle's claw armament and brought before Mecha Sonic Mk. II, who will accidentally destroy the Egg Mobile and its Eggrobo in an attempt to kill Knuckles.

===''Knuckles' Chaotix''===
Several upgraded Egg Mobiles are used by Eggman as bosses in the game.
*[[Botanic Base]]: [[Botanic Base boss]]
*[[Amazing Arena]]: [[Amazing Arena boss]]

===''Sonic R''===
[[File:SonicR EggmanEggMobile.png|thumb|left|225px|[[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]] piloting the Egg Mobile, from ''[[Sonic R]]''.]]
In ''[[Sonic R]]'', [[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]] uses a modified Egg Mobile as a racing vehicle.<ref>''[[Sonic R]]'' ([[Sega Saturn]]) Japanese instruction booklet, pg. 27.</ref><ref name="RSite" /> The hovercraft in this game has the appearance from [[Sonic the Hedgehog (1991)|''Sonic the Hedgehog'' (16-bit)]], without many extra details. To unlock Eggman and his Egg Mobile, the player has to come in first place in the first four race courses.

In gameplay, the Egg Mobile has great steering, good acceleration and is able to hover above [[water]], but it has low speed and no grip. Eggman and his Egg Mobile's main weapon in the game is the [[Lock-On Missile|homing missile]], which the player can fire by pressing the {{A Button (Sega Saturn)}}, {{C Button (Sega Saturn)}}, or Y when the target reticle is green. To lock onto the target, the player has to aim precisely. It also takes ten [[Ring]]s from the player's score and has brief recharge after launching the homing missile.

===''Sonic Adventure''===
[[File:Egg-Mobile-Sonic-Adventure.png|thumb|225px|The Egg Mobile, from ''[[Sonic Adventure]]''.]]
In ''[[Sonic Adventure]]'', its remake ''[[Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut]]'' and the [[Sonic Adventure (2010)|2010 remaster]], the Egg Mobile is spelled as the '''Eggmobile'''.<ref>[[Sonic Team]] (14 September 2004). ''[[Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut]]''. [[PC]]. [[Sega]]. Area/Level: [[Sound Test]]. "'''Action Stage''': ENEMY: Eggmobile 2 & 3"</ref> In these games, its design has been noticeably updated to look more like a semi-realistic functional vehicle. The Egg Mobile appears multiple times throughout all the playable characters' storylines as [[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]]'s means of transportation.

[[File:Dolphin 2015-10-09 19-32-33-137.png|thumb|left|225px|The Egg Mobile spewing gas, from ''[[Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut]]''.]]
During the games, the Egg Mobile shows a wide variety of new features. This includes abducting objects from below, an extendable built-in claw equipment used to grab items, and purple sleeping gas that can be released from the hovercraft's front.

Eggman pilots the Egg Mobile on multiple occasions during most characters' stories:
*In [[Sonic the Hedgehog|Sonic]]'s storyline, Eggman first uses the Egg Mobile to show off near [[Tails' Lab|Tails's Work Shop]] at the [[Mystic Ruins]], where he fights the hedgehog using the [[Egg Hornet]] modification. After being defeated, he uses a built-in claw to snatch the purple [[Chaos Emerald]] from [[Miles "Tails" Prower|Tails]]' hands and flee with it. Upon completing [[Casinopolis]], the player is taken to a cutscene where the doctor releases sleeping gas from the Egg Mobile to snatch another Chaos Emerald from the heroes. Later, Eggman pilots the Egg Mobile to abduct two Chaos Emeralds following Sonic's encounter with [[Knuckles the Echidna|Knuckles]]. After said encounter, he uses the Egg Mobile to go to the [[Egg Carrier]]. Eggman subsequently uses the Egg Mobile multiple times at the Egg Carrier, such as when he sends [[E-102 Gamma]] to fight Sonic, and during the [[Chaos 6]] battle, after which he uses the hovercraft to escape from the falling Egg Carrier. At [[Final Egg]], Eggman uses the Egg Mobile one last time to pilot the Egg Viper to fight Sonic, only to be defeated. At the ending cutscene, the Egg Mobile is used by Eggman to flee from the Mystic Ruins.
*During Tails' storyline, the Egg Mobile is used once again by Eggman at the Mystic Ruins to battle Tails with the Egg Hornet. After his defeat, he uses the built-in claw to snatch the purple Chaos Emerald from Tails and flee with it. He later pilots the hovercraft to knock Sonic and Tails out with sleeping gas outside of Casinopolis, and to get two Chaos Emeralds after Tails' battle with Knuckles. After said encounter, he uses the Egg Mobile to go to the Egg Carrier. He would use the Egg Mobile again at [[Station Square]], where he had a race against Tails, after which he attached the Egg Mobile to the [[Egg Walker]], only to be defeated once again.
*In [[Amy Rose|Amy]]'s storyline, the Egg Mobile is briefly seen at the Egg Carrier, where Eggman pilots it to send E-102 Gamma to fight Sonic.
*In [[Big the Cat|Big]]'s story, Eggman pilots the Egg Mobile before the battle against Chaos.
*In Gamma's story, Eggman pilots the Egg Mobile onboard the Egg Carrier when he sends the robot to fight Sonic.
*In [[Super Sonic]]'s story, Eggman pilots the Egg Mobile at the Mystic Ruins while cursing Sonic, before reuniting with [[Chaos]]. However, near the [[Altar of Emerald]], he would be knocked out of the Egg Mobile, presumably by Chaos, where he and the hovercraft would lie near the [[Master Emerald]] alongside Knuckles. After recovering, Eggman flees with the still-functional Egg Mobile. Later, when [[Perfect Chaos]] blows the [[Egg Carrier 2]] up, the Egg Mobile and Eggman would fly away by the explosion. After Super Sonic defeats and neutralizes Perfect Chaos, Eggman flees in his hovercraft.

In gameplay, the Egg Mobile is featured in the following boss fights:
*[[Egg Hornet]] (Sonic and Tails)
*[[Chaos 6]] (Sonic)
*[[Egg Viper]] (Sonic)
*[[Egg Walker]] (Tails)
Also, in Tails' version of [[Speed Highway]], the player has to race Dr. Eggman, who is piloting the Egg Mobile. Compared to Sonic in previous Action Stages, the Egg Mobile can instantly accelerate at high speeds and fly through the stage, making it difficult to outspeed the doctor without employing shortcuts.

In addition to all these appearances, similar-looking Egg Mobile models appear at the Captain Room in the [[Egg Carrier (Sonic Adventure)|Egg Carrier]], and the Private Room in the same Adventure Stage features two mini Egg Mobiles that resemble the model from [[Sonic the Hedgehog (1991)|''Sonic the Hedgehog'' (16-bit)]].

===''Sonic Adventure 2''===
{{main|Eggwalker}}
[[File:Officialeggman.png|225px|thumb|The Eggwalker, from ''[[Sonic Adventure 2]]''.]]
In ''[[Sonic Adventure 2]]'', where Dr. Eggman is playable, he rides a modified Egg Mobile, which has become a "chicken walker" mech called the [[Eggwalker]]. It has a pair of backward-jointed legs added, a machine gun to one side and a rocket launcher perched above Eggman's head. The two battles against Eggman are fought against this mode.

The traditional flying Egg Mobile appears only during the introduction cutscene of Knuckles and [[Rouge the Bat|Rouge]]. In it, he once again uses a yellow claw in an attempt to take the Master Emerald. While Knuckles manages to break the Master Emerald into [[Emerald Shards|shards]] at the time, Eggman escapes back to the pyramid base.

===''Sonic Advance'' series===
====''Sonic Advance''====
In ''[[Sonic Advance]]'', the Egg Mobile reprises its role from the classic games. At the end of [[Neo Green Hill Zone]] Act 2, the player first encounters Dr. Eggman on his Egg Mobile. After each boss fight, the doctor can be seen flying away in his hovercraft. In [[X-Zone]], the vehicle is given its designs from the original ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' and ''Sonic the Hedgehog 2''. In gameplay, it is featured below:

*[[Neo Green Hill Zone]]: [[Egg Hammer Tank]]
*[[Secret Base Zone]]: [[Egg Press]]
*[[Casino Paradise Zone]]: [[Egg Ball]]
*[[Ice Mountain Zone]]: [[Egg Spider]]
*[[Cosmic Angel Zone]]: [[Egg Snake]]
*[[X Zone]]:
**[[Egg Wrecker|Egg Mobile-H]]
**[[Egg Drillster|Egg Mobile-D]]
**[[Egg X]]
*[[The Moon Zone]]: [[Super Egg Robot]]

====''Sonic Advance 2''====
In ''[[Sonic Advance 2]]'', the Egg Mobile reuses its appearance from ''[[Sonic Advance]]'', and like in that game, it serves as [[Doctor Eggman|Eggman]]'s vehicle. The Egg Mobile is featured below:
*[[Leaf Forest]]: [[EggHammerTankII]]
*[[Hot Crater]]: [[Egg Bomber Tank]]
*[[Music Plant]]: [[Egg Totem]]
*[[Ice Paradise]]: [[Aero Egg]]
*[[Sky Canyon]]: [[Egg Saucer]]
*[[Techno Base]]: [[Egg-Go-Round]]
*[[Egg Utopia]]: [[Egg Frog]]
*[[XX]]:
**All bosses from previous stages.
**[[Super Eggrobo Z]]

====''Sonic Advance 3''====
[[File:Advance 3 eggmobile.png|right]]
In ''[[Sonic Advance 3]]'', the Egg Mobile is given slightly different design, having more jet plane-looking appearance with two rocket engines and small red lower wing at the Egg Mobile's bottom. It once again reprises its role from the classic games and during the boss battles, [[Gemerl]] merges together with the Egg Mobile to be a part of Eggman's machines until the end of the game. The Egg Mobile is featured below:
*[[Route 99]]: [[Egg Hammer 3]]
*[[Sunset Hill]]: [[Egg Ball No.2]]
*[[Ocean Base]]: [[Egg Foot]]
*[[Toy Kingdom]]: [[Egg Cube]]
*[[Twinkle Snow]]: [[Egg Chaser (Sonic Advance 3)|Egg Chaser]]
*[[Cyber Track]]: [[Egg Pinball]]
*[[Chaos Angel]]: [[Egg Gravity]]
*[[Altar Emerald]]: [[Hyper Eggrobo]]

In the bad ending, the character destroys the Egg Mobile after the final boss, sending it plummeting down, while in the good ending, [[Super Sonic]] and Eggman team up against the [[Ultimate Gemerl]] at [[Nonaggression]], where the only thing that can damage Ultimate Gemerl is the [[Tag Action]] with Eggman where Super Sonic load and fires Eggman in his Egg Mobile into the eye of Ultimate Gemerl to open its eye for Super Sonic to damage it. After the battle, Eggman carries the tired Super Sonic back to the Altar Emerald and flies away with the Egg Mobile.

====''Sonic Battle''====
[[File:Sonic-Battle-Eggmobile.png|left]]
In ''[[Sonic Battle]]'', the Egg Mobile is only seen during the fight against Eggman on the [[Death Egg (Sonic Battle)|Death Egg]]'s battle arena in the final story of the game.

During the battle against Eggman in the Egg Mobile, Eggman has five lives. In battle, Eggman fires numerous missiles all over the place which can knock the player into the air, which the player can avoid by running around the wide arena. Eggman can also drop exploding [[Bomb (obstacle)|bombs]] below the Egg Mobile. When knocked into the air, the Egg Mobile slowly lands back down. When the Egg Mobile gets destroyed, it explodes and causes damage to [[Emerl]] if he is too close to Eggman.

===''Sonic Heroes''===
[[File:Eggman heroes.png|225px|thumb|"[[Neo Metal Sonic|Eggman]]" in the Egg Mobile, from ''[[Sonic Heroes]]''.]]
The Egg Mobile makes another appearance in ''[[Sonic Heroes]]'' where is mainly piloted by [[Neo Metal Sonic]] under the disguise of [[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]].

Throughout the game, the Egg Mobile is seen being attached to a larger battle mech three times for a boss battle; in the first two battles, "Eggman" manages to escape from destroyed battle mech at the end of fight. It is also seen in the background during [[Robot Carnival]] and [[Robot Storm]] where the "doctor" is commanding his troops. The Egg Mobile is featured below:
*[[Egg Hawk]]
*[[Egg Albatross]]
*[[Egg Emperor]]

===''Shadow the Hedgehog''===
The Egg Mobile in ''[[Shadow the Hedgehog (game)|Shadow the Hedgehog]]'' features the same design it had in ''Sonic Heroes'' and is seen being piloted by Eggman. The Egg Mobile is only seen twice in the cutscenes in the game, namely in those before starting [[Cryptic Castle]] and [[Iron Jungle]], where Eggman is seen giving commands to [[Shadow Android]]s from the Egg Mobile. It is also used to pilot the [[Egg Breaker]] or the [[Egg Dealer]].

===''Sonic Rush'' series===
[[File:Egg-Mobiles-Sonic-Rush.png|thumb|225px|Aesthetic differences of [[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]]'s (left) and [[Eggman Nega]]'s Egg Mobiles (right), from ''[[Sonic Rush]]''.]]
In both ''[[Sonic Rush]]'' and ''[[Sonic Rush Adventure]]'', the Egg Mobile was the featured vehicle for both Dr. Eggman and [[Eggman Nega]], with each of them having their own Egg Mobile. In these games, the design of the Egg Mobile is recycled from ''Sonic Adventure'' and the only difference between Eggman and Eggman Nega's Egg Mobile is their color schemes; Dr. Eggman's Egg Mobile is gray and yellow, while Eggman Nega's mobile is yellow and red.

In ''Sonic Rush'', both Eggman and Eggman Nega used their Egg Mobiles as cockpits in their larger mechs for boss battles by attaching them to these machines and the only weak point of these machines are the Egg Mobiles' glass dome. Once these machines are defeated, Eggman and his Egg Mobile gets kicked away by [[Blaze the Cat]] (if fighting them for the first time) or escape from the battle with the Egg Mobile in a poor condition. One of the doctors is also seen watching the [[Sonic (Sonic Rush)|fierce]] [[Blaze (Sonic Rush)|battle]] between Sonic and Blaze from the Egg Mobile in the background. Despite not taking part in the fight, the doctor (depending on the player's character) strangely flees away in the Egg Mobile in the same manner of that in the previous boss fights. Either one of the doctors' Egg Mobile is featured below:
*[[Leaf Storm]]: [[Egg Hammer Mega]]
*[[Water Palace]]: [[Egg Turtle (Sonic Rush)|Egg Turtle]]
*[[Mirage Road]]: [[Egg Scarab]]
*[[Night Carnival]]: [[Egg Libra]]
*[[Huge Crisis]]: [[Egg Hammer Fortress]]
*[[Altitude Limit]]: [[Egg Eagle]]
*[[Unknown]]: [[Egg King]]

In one of the last single cinematic cutscene in ''Sonic Rush Adventure'', Eggman is seen flying in the Egg Mobile alongside the [[Egg Wizard]], before he and Eggman Nega both start using the Egg Wizard to go after the [[Power of the Stars]]).

===''Sonic Riders'' series===
====''Sonic Riders''====
[[File:Eggmobile in Sonic Riders.png|thumb|left|225px|The Egg Mobile, from ''[[Sonic Riders]]''.]]
In ''[[Sonic Riders]]'', the Egg Mobile uses its design from ''[[Sonic Adventure]]''. It is briefly seen used by [[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]] in the cutscene that follows either [[Sand Ruins]] or [[Dark Desert]], where he uses the aircraft's grabber attachment to snatch the [[Key to Babylon Garden]] away from [[Jet the Hawk|Jet]]'s hand and flies to the risen [[Babylon Garden]].

====''Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity''====
[[File:Sonic Riders Zero Gravity Egg Mobile.png|thumb|225px|The Egg Mobile, from ''[[Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity]]''.]]
In ''[[Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity]]'', like in ''[[Sonic Riders]]'', the Egg Mobile bears its design from ''[[Sonic Adventure]]''. In [[Team Sonic|Team Heroes]]' story, it is briefly seen in the cutscene after [[Gigan Rocks]], where [[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]] is flying away from the [[Babylon Rogues]]' [[airship]], after Sonic and his friends find out the truth about the [[Ark of the Cosmos|Arks of the Cosmos]]. Meanwhile, in the Babylon story, it is seen in the scene that follows [[Tempest Waterway]], where the Babylon Rouges discover that the doctor has stolen the Arks of the Cosmos and see him take off in the Egg Mobile, with the Arks being held by two mechanical arms on the back of the vehicle.

===''Sonic the Hedgehog'' (2006)===
[[File:Wmplayer 2016-08-25 19-36-53-924.png|thumb|225px|The Egg Mobile, from [[Sonic the Hedgehog (2006)|''Sonic the Hedgehog'' (2006)]].]]
In [[Sonic the Hedgehog (2006)|''Sonic the Hedgehog'' (2006)]], a completely different version of the Egg Mobile is used by [[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]] to kidnap [[Princess Elise the Third|Elise]].

The only time when Egg Mobile is ever show being utilized in combat is when it attached itself to the [[Egg Wyvern]], the final boss in the Sonic's story. During the fight, the arm parts on the Egg Mobile can change into laser cannons. Occasionally, the player has to hit Egg Mobile's cockpit when the Egg Wyvern's upper part opens and Eggman charges the laser cannons, which can be used to reach the cockpit with the [[Homing Attack]]. After the battle, the Egg Mobile is destroyed along with the Egg Wyvern, while Eggman escapes as the Egg Mobile seat is ejected from the Egg Mobile, and spins off into the clouds after ricocheting off one of the detached arms.

===''Sonic Rivals 2''===
In ''[[Sonic Rivals 2]]'', [[Eggman Nega]], under the disguise of Dr. Eggman, pilots the Egg Mobile as a part of almost every boss vehicle in the game. The Egg Mobile can be briefly seen when the player destroys one of the bosses as it flies away.

The design of his Egg Mobile in this game is drastically different from its previous designs. It has a tubular design with four rocket engines aiming down at the Egg Mobile's sides. To defeat a boss machine, the player usually has to hit the machine's glass dome six times before the rival character does it. The Egg Mobile is featured below:
*[[Blue Coast Zone]]: [[Egg Liner (Sonic Rivals 2)|Egg Liner]]
*[[Sunset Forest Zone]]: [[Egg Crawler]]
*[[Neon Palace Zone]]: [[Egg Dealer (Sonic Rivals 2)|Egg Dealer]]
*[[Frontier Canyon Zone]]: [[Egg Bull]]
*[[Mystic Haunt Zone]]: [[Egg Phantom]]

===''Sonic Unleashed''===
In ''[[Sonic Unleashed]]'', the Egg Mobile received another new design. In the beginning of ''Sonic Unleashed'', Eggman piloted a [[Egg Dragoon|large prototype mech]] from his Egg Mobile, which had been attached to the mech, and engaged with it in battle with Sonic when he arrived on the central battleship of the special [[Egg Fleet]]. After being defeated by [[Super Sonic]], Eggman escaped in the Egg Mobile to the [[Chaos Energy Cannon]], while Super Sonic chased him through his space armada. At the Chaos Energy Cannon, Eggman got to the main room of the cannon, while tumbling out of the Egg Mobile after losing the control while Super Sonic arrived. When Eggman tricked Super Sonic into the center of the cannon and used him to awaken [[Dark Gaia]], Eggman sought refuged inside the Egg Mobile again before opening a window into space, throwing [[Sonic the Werehog]] out of the Chaos Energy Cannon.

After that, Eggman is seen using the Egg Mobile as his main transporting vehicle in several of the cutscenes through the game. The Egg Mobile is featured below, though in [[Xbox 360]]/[[PlayStation 3]] version, Eggman is replaced with [[Little Fighter]]s piloting the Egg Devil Ray and the Egg Lancer:
*[[Egg Beetle]]
*[[Egg Devil Ray]] ([[Wii]]/[[PlayStation 2]] [[Sonic Unleashed (Wii/PlayStation 2)|version]])
*[[Egg Lancer]] ([[Wii]]/[[PlayStation 2]] [[Sonic Unleashed (Wii/PlayStation 2)|version]])
*[[Egg Dragoon]]

===''Sonic the Hedgehog 4''===
[[File:Eggmobile-Sonic4.gif|thumb|left|225px|The Egg Mobile's design, from ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I]]''.]]
The Egg Mobile in ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I]]'' has a slightly different design that looks similar to one it had in the original ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (1991)|Sonic the Hedgehog]]''. During the game, the Egg Mobile mostly adapts Dr. Eggman's old inventions from the original ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' and ''Sonic the Hedgehog 2'' with new strategies. The Egg Mobile is featured below:
*[[Splash Hill Zone]]: [[Egg Wrecker|Egg Mobile-H]]
*[[Casino Street Zone]]: [[Catch Eggman]]
*[[Lost Labyrinth Zone]]: [[Egg Mobile (boss)|Egg Mobile]]
*[[Mad Gear Zone]]: [[Egg Bouncer|Flying Eggman]]
*[[E.G.G. Station Zone]]: All bosses from previous Zones.

The Egg Mobile in ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II]]'' looks the same as it did in ''Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I'', but has gotten a few new inventions to adapt itself with. The Egg Mobile also shows new ways to merge with Eggman's creations (for example by using a magnet add-on that can be used to fuse scrap metal into a robot). At some point during the [[Sky Fortress Zone]], Eggman rejected the Egg Mobile and used a rocket pod to travel to the [[Death Egg mk.II]], were he has another Egg Mobile ready. In the [[Death Egg mk.II Zone]], [[Metal Sonic]] and Eggman in his Egg Mobile teams up to fight Sonic and Tails. The Egg Mobile is listed below:
*[[Sylvania Castle Zone]]: [[Egg Serpentleaf]]
*[[Oil Desert Zone]]: [[Egg Scrap Mech]]
*[[Death Egg mk.II Zone]]:
**[[Dr. Eggman & Metal Sonic]]
**[[Egg Heart]]

===''Sonic Colors''===
In the [[Wii]] version of ''[[Sonic Colors]]'', and its remaster ''[[Sonic Colors: Ultimate]]'', the Egg Mobile has the same design from ''Sonic Unleashed'', though it now features an engraving of the doctor's face on the back. In this game, Eggman only uses it as his main method of transport, aside from piloting the [[Nega-Wisp Armor]]. In the mid-point of the game, Eggman also installed the Egg Mobile with a [[Mind Control Ray|mind control beam]] when attempting to ambush Sonic, but Tails pushed Sonic out of the way, making it brainwashed him instead. It ran out of [[Hyper-go-on]] power before a fight could start, however, resulting in Eggman's retreat. After his defeat against Sonic in the Nega-Wisp Armor, Eggman was unable to control the damaged Egg Mobile as he was sucked into black hole. After the black hole was stopped, Eggman, in his Egg Mobile, was pushed forward by [[Orbot]] and [[Cubot]] in space to prepare his revenge at Sonic. The Egg Mobile was also alluded to in the [[Tropical Resort]] level during gameplay via one of Eggman's recordings. He tries to contact for the owner of a "white hovercraft shaped like an egg" as it was being broken into, only to react with surprise, apparently realizing that it was the Egg Mobile that was being broken into.

===''Sonic Generations''===
In the console/[[PC]] version of ''[[Sonic Generations]]'', the Egg Mobile is seen only in cutscenes. It features the same design it had in ''Sonic Unleashed'' and ''Sonic Colors''.

After the [[Death Egg Robot (Sonic Generations)|Death Egg Robot]] battle, Classic Eggman's Egg Mobile briefly appears before the [[Time Eater]] abducted him. As Classic and Modern Sonic and Tails confront the Time Eater in the Center of Time, Classic and Modern Eggman revealed themselves as the masterminds behind the Time Eater, both of them sitting in their Egg Mobiles which are connected to the head of the Time Eater. After the Time Eater is defeated, both Eggmen lose their Egg Mobiles.

===''Sonic Lost World''===
In the [[Wii U]] version, the [[PC]] [[Sonic Lost World (PC)|version]] and [[Nintendo 3DS]] [[Sonic Lost World (Nintendo 3DS)|version]] of ''[[Sonic Lost World]]'', the Egg Mobile features the same design it had from ''[[Sonic Unleashed]]''. At the beginning of the games, the Egg Mobile was carrying a [[Capsule]] that hangs suspended from its underside by the claw through the sky. After discovering that Sonic and Tails on the [[Tornado]] were chasing after them, Eggman drops the Capsule and shoots to the Tornado using a beam gun. The Egg Mobile is later seen when Sonic found Eggman at [[Windy Hill]], who then introduced the [[Deadly Six]] and commanded [[Zazz]] to get rid of him.

Later at [[Desert Ruins]], Eggman, in the Egg Mobile, scolded the Deadly Six for their failures, before Sonic managed to kick the [[Cacophonic Conch]] from Eggman's far away, thus freeing the Deadly Six from Eggman's control. The Deadly Six then hijacked the present [[Badnik]]s and ordered to fire on Sonic and Eggman, while Zazz attacked the Egg Mobile before [[Zomom]] smashed it into the ground, forcing Eggman and his lackeys to abandon it. At the end of the game, Eggman managed to get another Egg Mobile and attached it to his [[Eggrobo (Sonic Lost World)|Eggrobo]] in [[Lava Mountain]] for his battle with Sonic, but was defeated once more.

===''Sonic Mania''===
In ''[[Sonic Mania]]'', and its expansion ''[[Sonic Mania Plus]]'', the Egg Mobile appears surprisingly rarely in Mania Mode. These battles are as listed below:
*[[Weather Globe]]
*[[Metal Sonic (Sonic Mania)|Metal Sonic]]<ref name="Mania Plus" group="note">Only appears in version 1.04/RC 1.05.0713 (for console/PC versions respectively) of ''[[Sonic Mania]]'' and ''[[Sonic Mania Plus]]''.</ref>
*[[Dive Eggman]]
[[File:Sonic-Mania-Egg-Mobile.png|thumb|left|225px|The Egg Mobile seen after the [[Weather Globe]] boss fight, from ''[[Sonic Mania]]''.]]
After being defeated in [[Studiopolis Zone]] Act 2, [[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]] escapes in the Egg Mobile. The Egg Mobile is briefly seen prior the final phase on [[Metal Sonic (Sonic Mania)|Metal Sonic battle]] when Eggman tosses the [[Phantom Ruby]] to [[Metal Sonic]], as he then proceeds to transform into [[Giga Metal]]. Later on, the Egg Mobile is seen being parked on the edge of a cliff with the [[Screw Mobile]] around it at the beginning of the [[Dive Eggman|boss battle]] in [[Hydrocity Zone (Sonic Mania)|Hydrocity Zone]] Act 1. As a unique take on this boss battle, the player can hop into the Egg Mobile and move it around above the water pool that Eggman is swimming around in and setting round bombs for the player. Much like the boss battle in ''Sonic 3 & Knuckles'', the player can drop pipe bombs to destroy the round bombs in the water pool or create subsiding water vortexes to catch and damage Eggman. Also, in the [[Phantom King and Klepto Mobile|final battle with the Phantom King]] in [[Egg Reverie Zone]], Eggman used a damaged Egg Mobile to make the [[Klepto Mobile]].

Additionally, one of the four [[Eggrobo]]s during the boss battle with the [[Heavy Gunner]] in Studiopolis Zone Act 1 will be piloting a larger helicopter-like vehicle loosely based on the classic Egg Mobile. Many design elements that this vehicle has in common with the Egg Mobile include its shape and helicopter attachment seen from the Egg Mobile design in ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 2]]'', and a pair of mechanical feet featured in the Egg Mobile in [[Sonic the Hedgehog (1991)|''Sonic the Hedgehog'' (1991)]].

When about to fight the [[Heavy King]] as [[Knuckles the Echidna|Knuckles]] in [[Lava Reef Zone (Sonic Mania)|Lava Reef Zone]] Act 2, the echidna remembers the time when Eggman piloted the Egg Mobile to steal the [[Master Emerald]].

In ''Sonic Mania Plus''{{'}} Encore Mode, the Egg Mobile appears during the same boss battles as in Mania Mode where it serves the same roles. However, the Klepto Mobile does not appear, as Egg Reverie Zone is not included in that mode.

===''Sonic Forces''===
In ''[[Sonic Forces]]'', the Egg Mobile appears in cutscenes most of the time. In this game, it retains its appearance from ''[[Sonic Unleashed]]''. When Classic Sonic encountered Eggman talking with Infinite, he waited for Infinite to leave, and lunged at Eggman, striking the hull of the Egg Mobile. Annoyed by his sudden arrival, Eggman uncharacteristically attempted to retreat in order to resume his rounding up the [[Resistance]], only for Classic Sonic to give chase, forcing Eggman to personally take a stand against his eternal nemesis. 

It was then that the Egg Mobile is used as an attack vehicle when Classic Sonic briefly fights him in Green Hill. The fight behaves similarly to their very first encounter, except instead of a wrecking ball, he uses a buzzsaw blade attached to a chain. Classic Sonic managed to destroy the chained buzzsaw attached to the Egg Mobile, only to find that Dr. Eggman had been prepared for that eventuality. Remotely calling out the Egg Dragoon, Eggman used the Egg Mobile to pilot the Egg Dragoon. 

After the Egg Dragoon was destroyed, Eggman, still inside the Egg Mobile, was sent flying to another part of Green Hill, where Eggman revealed his plan, and pointed out that the Resistance had three days before the plan would succeed. He said this whilst struggling to get the Egg Mobile's thrusters back online, which he eventually succeeded in doing, before promptly taking off.

At the end of the game, Eggman used the Egg Mobile to pilot the [[Death Egg Robot (Sonic Forces)|Death Egg Robot]] in [[Eggman Empire Fortress]] for a battle with Sonic, Classic Sonic, and the Avatar.

===''Sonic Frontiers''===
In ''[[Sonic Frontiers]]'', the Egg Mobile retains its design once again from ''[[Sonic Unleashed]]''. At the beginning of the game, [[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]] sets off his operations on the [[Kronos Island]] and begins his search for the [[Ancients]]' secrets while piloting the Egg Mobile in cloudy night.<ref>''[[Sonic Frontiers Prologue: Convergence]]'', "Prologue: Convergence"</ref> He eventually approaches an ancient-looking [[Portal (Sonic Frontiers)|throne]], as Eggman descends from the Egg Mobile and begins uploading A.I. program to the Portal with the goal of taking over the cyber security and gaining access to the Ancients' secrets on [[Starfall Islands]].<ref name="Introductory-Cutscene-Eggman-II">{{Cite game|dev1=[[Sonic Team]]|date=8 November 2022|game=Sonic Frontiers|system=PlayStation 5|publisher=[[Sega]]|cutscene=Introductory cutscene|quote='''[[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]]''': Yes! It's all coming online! The Ancients' secrets will be mine!}}</ref>

Throughout the game, Eggman is seen on the Egg Mobile while being stuck in the [[Cyber Space]]. Shortly after being released from the digital dimension and temporarily inducting [[Sonic the Hedgehog|Sonic]] into the empire against their [[The End|common enemy]],<ref name="Hail-Eggman-Empire">{{Cite game|dev1=[[Sonic Team]]|date=8 November 2022|game=Sonic Frontiers|system=PlayStation 5|publisher=[[Sega]]|cutscene=Prior [[Ouranos Island]]|quote='''[[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]]''': Sonic! I here-by induct you into the Eggman Empire and order you to save us all! Understand? This is not an alliance!}}</ref> Eggman on the Egg Mobile begins to search for missing [[Chaos Emerald]]s, one of which he shares with Sonic during the climax of the game.

===''Sonic Superstars''===
In ''[[Sonic Superstars]]'', the Egg Mobile retains its design from ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (1991)|Sonic the Hedgehog]]''. Here it appears in shortly before all major boss fights against [[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]] (excluding [[Speed Jungle Zone]], [[Lagoon City Zone]], [[Press Factory Zone]] and [[Golden Capital Zone]]). Upon being defeated in each [[Zone]], Eggman will quickly flee inside the Egg Mobile (excluding the previously mention Zones). Attachments to the Egg Mobile is featured below:
*[[Bridge Island Zone]]: [[Bridge Island Zone boss]]
*[[Sky Temple Zone]]: [[Sky Temple Zone boss]]
*[[Pinball Carnival Zone]]: [[Pinball Carnival Zone boss]]
*[[Sand Sanctuary Zone]]: [[Sand Sanctuary Zone boss]]
*[[Cyber Station Zone]]: [[Giant Metal Fighter]]
*[[Frozen Base Zone]]: [[First Frozen Base Zone boss|1st Frozen Base Zone boss]] and [[Frozen Base Zone boss|2nd Frozen Base Zone boss]]
*[[Egg Fortress Zone]]: [[Egg Fortress Zone boss]]

In this media, it looks like a military aircraft that has a modern and futuristic look, with an egg-shaped cockpit and two floats (one on each side). It possesses a white and black color scheme, as well as hazard stripes on the sides. It is also energized by one of [[Sonic the Hedgehog (Paramount)|Sonic]]'s quills, allowing it to keep up with Sonic's speed.

==Trivia==
*The spelling "Eggmobile" originated from a track title called "ENEMY: Eggmobile 2 & 3" from the ''[[Sonic Adventure]]'' [[Sound Test]], but it has been used as recently as ''[[Sonic Lost World]]'' when the game is set to other languages besides English and Japanese. Recent products have alternated between using either "Egg Mobile" or "Eggmobile".
*During many CGI cutscenes of ''[[Sonic Unleashed]]'', Eggman has a [[Dreamcast]] lying in the pilot seat of the Egg Mobile's cockpit. There are also two Dreamcast games to be seen, one including the modified ''Sonic Adventure'' cover featuring Eggman instead of Sonic and the second game's cover shows artwork of another [[Sonic Team]] game ''[[w:c:nid:NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams|NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams]]''.
*It is strange as to how the vehicle manages to fit the retracting giant wrecking ball inside itself with the cockpit taking too much space.
*In ''Sonic Unleashed'' and later games, the Egg Mobile has a main button with seven lights on the sides which each have the colors of the [[Chaos Emerald]]s.
*The Egg Mobile appears in ''[[LEGO Dimensions]]'' with a few notable design differences. It has two robotic arms protruding from it at all times, and the headlight has been replaced with a compartment used to store the Keystone Device that Dr. Eggman uses in the Level Pack. It is also much larger than usual to accommodate Eggman's "[[w:c:lego:Big Figure|big figure]]" proportions.
*Unlike the comic series, the Egg Mobile never appeared in the [[Sonic the Hedgehog (TV series)|''Sonic the Hedgehog'' (TV series)]]. Instead, Robotnik had two different hovercrafts. One in the pilot episode and one in the rest of the series.
