The Pocky (ポッキー Pokkī?) is a creature that appears in the Sonic X anime series and its comic series published by Archie Comics. They are a race of non-anthropomorphic rabbits native to Sonic's world.
Description
Anatomy
The typical Pocky resembles a grey domestic rabbit, although their anatomy is strikingly humanoid. They have round-shaped heads with large greyish blue eyes, white furry muzzles, long ears with light peach inner ears, and two small buck teeth. Other features include oblong torsos with white bellies, medium-sized legs with long three-toed feet, a white fluffy tail tassel, and hair tufts on their foreheads. They also have medium-length arms with five-fingered hands.
History
Anime
At some point, Pockies began showing up on Earth, presumably due to the Chaos Control irregularities occurring after the Space Colony ARK incident. Their presence alongside their fellow creatures thus raised worries of whether they would be able to coexist with humanity.[1] Eventually though, they got sent back to their home world.[2]
Archie Comics
A number of virtual Pockies appeared in a simulation Dr. Eggman trapped Sonic the Hedgehog and his allies in. These Pockies would appear whenever Sonic freed them from Badniks or capsule prisons.[3]
Trivia
- The Pockies are based on the species of the same name that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series.
