Sparcium[1] is a substance in the Sonic Boom series. It is an elusive (hence the name) type of metal alloy used for construction.
Description
Sparcium is a metal alloy suitable for constructing complex electronic components, such as microchips and AI processors. It is also very rare, making it highly valuable.[1]
History
TV series
Past
Years ago, several Tomatopotamus 2 game cartridges, each containing a microchip made of Sparcium, were produced. However, when the Sparcium chips proved more valuable than their cartridges, nearly all existing copies of the game were recalled and melted down.[1]
Season two
In the present day, Sonic got his hands on a Tomatopotamus 2 cartridge with its original Sparcium microchip, while Eggman would make an Sparcium-based AI processor for FiendBot. When the benevolent FiendBot's AI processor got destroyed, Team Sonic used the Sparcium in Sonic's cartridge to replace it.[1]
Trivia
- Sparcium's name is a prortmanteau of the word "sparse", emphasizing its rarity, and the "-cium" suffix.
