Biography[]
While playing a game of "Coconut Hurl", Team Sonic comes face to face with Dr. Eggman's newest robot, Cowbot. And when they decide to destroy him, Dr. Eggman tells them that Cowbot will destroy everything by making a huge explosion. Because of this, Tails decides to reprogram Cowbot. But by doing so, Cowbot ends up going after Dr. Eggman. Although Sonic is amused by this, Amy tells him that they can't let Cowbot destroy his own creator. Because of this, Sonic and Tails go to Dr. Eggman's lair to warn him.
After warning Dr. Eggman about Cowbot, Sonic and Tails help him upgrade his defenses, so that he can protect himself. But since Cowbot is flying in a very slow pace, the trio decides to pass the time by watching TV, eating snacks, drinking tea, playing "Coconut Hurl", and roasting marshmallows. The next day, Cowbot arrives at Dr. Eggman's lair. And when he tries to attack him, Sonic and Tails activate the defenses. Unfortunately, their marshmallow-covered hands are gumming up their machines. But then, Tails decides to use the marshmallows to gum up Cowbot's gears. After getting launched into the air, Sonic puts the marshmallows in Cowbot's body, and the latter ends up exploding. After the fight, Dr. Eggman confesses that he tricked Sonic and Tails into upgrading his defenses. Because of this, Sonic uses the marshmallows to shut down the defenses. And with that, Sonic and Tails leave the lair, and Orbot and Cubot eat the marshmallows.
When Tails' robot, Hypnobot, gets reprogrammed by the other robots from Morristown, he starts to hypnotize all of Dr. Eggman's robots, including Cowbot, Orbot, and Cubot. And then, he ends up being defeated by Sonic and Tails before teaming up with Dr. Eggman. Afterward, Hypnobot and Dr. Eggman try to take over Morristown. But then, they end up being defeated by Team Sonic and Team Cybonic. Some time later, Dr. Eggman tries to use Cowbot and his other robots to stop Sonic from making his deliveries on time. And when Sonic's friends show up, they help him get past the robots.
