Rouge the Bat (Sonic X/Pre-Super Genesis Wave)

This page will only focus on Rouge as she appears in Sonic X, not her video game counterpart since she's likable.

Rouge the Bat (Japanese: (ルージュ・ザ・バット Rūju za Batto?) is a recurring character that appears in Sonic X. On Earth, she's a government spy.

Why She Sucks

 * 1) She has a personality of a selfish, bitchy mean girl.
 * 2) She is also an ephebophile, as she constantly flirts with Knuckles, who is 16!
 * 3) She also kissed Tails (an 8-year-old) in episode 45..
 * 4) She is obsessed with stealing things. Especially the chaos emeralds.
 * 5) She blackmailed Bokkun's locket with a picture of his crush (who is Cream the Rabbit).
 * 6) * She even made him work for her.
 * 7) Inappropriate outfit for a kid's show, as her outfit shows her cleavage.
 * 8) * Though this is understandable sonce she comes from japanese media, similar to Funny, from Funny Pets.
 * 9) She constantly calls Topaz an old lady, which is rude and annoying.
 * 10) When Knuckles saved her from falling, she didn't even thank him.
 * 11) She said "Maria" in front of Shadow just so she could get away from Shadow and Chris to look for one of the chaos emeralds, which is very insensitive and disrespectful, considering the fact that Maria died and that causes Shadow to get triggered.
 * 12) She sounds like a woman in her 40's rather than a young adult.
 * 13) It can get super annoying having to listen to a saxophone every single time she appears on a screen.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Although her outfit is inappropriate, her character design is passable.
 * 2) Every scene where she's with Knuckles makes Knuxouge shippers go crazy.
 * 3) At least she doesn't act like a crazy fangirl, like Amy when she sees her crush, Knuckles.
 * 4) Her theme song, Mysterious & Sexy Thief Rouge.

Trivia

 * Her Japanese voice actress is Rumi Ochiai and her English voice actress is Kathleen Delaney.
 * Her GUN outfit still shows her cleavage, despite the fact that it can cover her up.
 * From episode 11 onwards, a saxophone plays whenever Rouge is around.
