Coconuts is one of the oldest Badniks and foes of Sonic the Hedgehog and the Freedom Fighters and also one of the most persistent. He was built by Dr. Robotnik as a member of the Super Special Sonic Search and Smash Squad, which also included Scratch and Grounder. Armed with coconut-like bombs, Coconuts has always tried to destroy Sonic and the Freedom Fighters, and has yet to succeed. After making a few appearances in the early freedom-fighting days of Sonic and his friends, Coconuts resurfaced on the Island of Misfit Badniks, and is now Mammoth Mogul's "butler monkey".
