Shadow the Hedgehog (Sonic Boom)

Shadow the Hedgehog (Sonic Boom) is a major antagonist in the Sonic Boom spin-off franchise, serving as a supporting antagonist in Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric, an anti-hero in Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal and a recurring antagonist in the television series. He is the rival of Sonic the Hedgehog, who seeks to prove his superiority over him in every way. He is also notably darker and edgier than his mainstream counterpart, and has shown to be more of a villain than an anti-hero.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) He is not at all an interesting character. Instead of being the same likable anti-hero that has a sympathizing backstory and a huge goal of protecting the Earth in the main Sonic series, in Sonic Boom, he is portrayed as a bland, evil, generic, and shallow bully with little to no backstory or reason behind his cruel behavior, and he is also needlessly portrayed as a one-dimensional comedically serious villain.
 * 2) He hardly has a single bit of motivation to anything he does or will do. Which makes him completely depthless, and has goals that are forced.
 * 3) He's a bitch ass motherfucker
 * 4) He became even more edgy. Which is unnecessary because while the Shadow from the main series was edgy, it wasn't ever exaggerated. Thus, he's even more generic.
 * 5) He practically has no character development.
 * 6) He antagonizes Sonic and his friends for really no good given reason. Which just makes him look like nothing but a nuisance.
 * 7) He probably posted my nudes on twitter DOT com
 * 8) His voice is also bland and generic which wasted the talents of Kirk Thornton. Shadow sounds more like Vegeta except Vegeta is an actual great character.
 * 9) He fucked my wife
 * 10) The stuff he usually does has often little to no importance to the main plot. Which makes him look like an unnecessary character.
 * 11) He has tried to destroy the planet all because Dr. Eggman tricked him multiple times. Which is just more evidence that all the stuff he plans to do and his reasons for his plans are forced and completely poorly written.
 * 12) He pissed on my wife
 * 13) He is incredibly shallow, and has a huge lack of common sense. Like in Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric where he states Sonic is weak because of his reliance on his friends.
 * 14) *This is strange, seeing as the Shadow from the main series has people that he would consider his friends.
 * 15) He has little to no identity outside of a generic villainous bully.

The Only Redeeming Quality

 * 1) His redesign is kind of cool.
