I'm a hedgehog, I'm not very good at fighting. But my dream is to one day be as strong as my dad.


— Nicky, Sonic the Hedgehog (Bessatsu CoroCoro Comic Special) Chapter 1

Nicky (ニッキ Nikki?) is the main character of the Sonic the Hedgehog serialized manga published by Shogakukan. He is a fourth grade student at Hedgehog Elementary School. Nicky is a sweet and even-tempered hedgehog of Hedgehog Town, and is at times taken position over by the heroic Sonic the Hedgehog. Nobody, except Tails, is aware of his position-swapped clue, which he tends to transform into.

Appearance[]

In the Shogaku Ninensei stories, prior his first transformation, Nicky is anthropomorphic hedgehog with brown fur and light brown hair.[2] After the transformation though, his fur and hair became permanently light blue.[3] He also wears wide glasses without temple measurements, a red shirt with an "N" printed on it, and blue and white shoes.

In the CoroCoro Comics Special stories, Nicky is seen having similar head quills compared to Sonic's and a small fringe above his head. He is wearing black glasses without temple measurements and white gloves like other characters.

In the October 1992 issue of Shogaku Ninensei, there is a blurb during the issue's Sonic the Hedgehog story that explains how Nicky's "transformation" into Sonic the Hedgehog works.

The blurb explains that it actually isn't a transformation at all and that Sonic is actually time-traveling from six years in the future to replace his younger self in times of crisis.

History[]

Personality[]

Nicky is a good-natured and loyal kid whose biggest dream is to defeat the forces of evil and be regarded as a hero. Unfortunately, he is weak and lacks any real courage. Even if the people near him believe in him, he rarely has the nerve to take action, which is why he is often bullied by Anton Veruca. He thinks very little of himself and while usually such an attitude simply causes him to stew in self deprecation it also means he's willing to act selflessly.

Nicky loves to spend time with his girlfriend Amy and his friends. Nicky is aware and jealous of Amy’s crush on Sonic, though he still appreciates the heroic hedgehog for fighting Dr. Eggman and saving his girlfriend, not knowing that he is Sonic. Nicky has dreams of becoming a musician, though he is incredibly bad at singing and playing his favorite instrument, the violin.

Weaknesses[]

Because of his blurry vision, Nicky has to wear glasses, as not doing so will make him unable to see. He is also unable to swim.[4]
