Metal Sonic is an evil robotic version of Sonic the Hedgehog from the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, created by Dr. Eggman. As with Knuckles the Echidna and Shadow the Hedgehog, he is one of Sonic's rivals, and despite being a robotic copy of the original, he believes that he is the one that deserves to be the real Sonic. Metal Sonic's first Mario-related appearance is in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, in the form of a cameo.
While Metal Sonic was voiced in Sonic Heroes by Ryan Drummond, Sonic's voice actor at the time of the game's release, in the Mario & Sonic series, he uses computer-generated sound effects instead.

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games[]
Metal Sonic's first playable appearance is in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games. He is a Speed type character and is naturally good in all racing events. His special skill is the Air Boost which he can use in certain events to gain speed.
In Adventure Tours mode in the Nintendo DS version of the game, Metal Sonic appears as an opponent in Rocket Skiing. In this mode, Metal Sonic joins Dr. Eggman and Bowser's side in trying to stop Sonic and Mario from rescuing the Snow Spirits. He first tries to stalk Sonic and Mario in Sparkleton before challenging the protagonists to a Rocket Ski Jumping event. After he is defeated, Metal Sonic escapes, thus allowing the heroes to proceed. Later, after the defeat of Eggman and Bowser, Metal Sonic and Bowser Jr. will leave challenges for Sonic and Mario in various places. Once all the challenges have been completed, Metal Sonic and Bowser Jr. will admit defeat and pretend to be remorseful. They then decide to join Mario and Sonic to improve their skills. After Bowser and Eggman lose for a second time they tell their masters how they followed Mario and Sonic in secret. This allows Bowser and Eggman to join them to better their skills as well.
There is an added detail in the DS version of the game, in which Metal Sonic's eyes turn blue if the player wins an event, is in the lead, or is playing certain events. This appears to be a reference to Sonic R, in which a similar effect happens to Metal Sonic when he is in the lead and/or wins.
Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games[]
Metal Sonic returns as a Speed-type playable character in the Wii version of Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games, and appears in the opening alongside the other athletes in addition to competing in Badminton - Doubles and Football. A Mii outfit based on Metal Sonic can be collected for Miis to wear, and Metal Sonic appears as a character that can be spoken to in London Party mode in order to play minigames and earn stickers.
In the Nintendo 3DS version, Metal Sonic is included in the Tricksters group, meaning that he is only playable in certain Events. In the Story Mode, Metal Sonic first appears when he accidentally breaks Waluigi's binoculars, and after being defeated in an event by Waluigi, he runs away. He is encountered again alongside Dr. Eggman by Wario and Waluigi, who defeat them and destroy the Fog machine before tying to get some compensation. Metal Sonic also appears in the bonus episodes, where after losing a match to Dr. Eggman, a challenge with Waluigi is set up so that Dr. Eggman can work out the modifications he requires. Another match for Metal Sonic is then set up with Wario, who gives Dr. Eggman the Fog urn when Metal Sonic wins, which Metal Sonic brings back to the lab for him. Back at the lab, Metal Sonic watches Dr. Eggman unseal the urn and release Phantasmal Fog, and prepares to challenge the Fog Imposter of Sonic that forms, though Dr. Eggman faces him instead. After Dr. Eggman defeats the Fog Imposter, Metal Sonic listens to the explanation he gives of how it was formed. A badge of Metal Sonic can also be obtained from the badge machine.
