Robotnik's secret agent Drago Wolf was able to trick Hershey the Cat into seemingly murdering Princess Sally while framing Sonic for the act. Some time after the failure of Mecha Sonic, Robotnik finally decided to enact his ultimate plan to destroy Knothole Village and the Freedom Fighters - Operation: EndGame. Some of those include an evil version of himself from other dimension (who would later change his name to Scourge the Hedgehog), Knuckles the Echidna (who was tricked by Robotnik and later becomes an ally), and Robo-Robotnik (with the help of Sonics from other dimensions). While most of his time was spent combating Robotnik and his hordes of robots, such as Metal Sonic, Sonic occasionally encountered other obstacles. As time went on, Robotnik began to see the Knothole Freedom Fighters as a viable threat, and thus made it his priority to locate their secret village of Knothole. Sonic and Rotor also found and rescued a girl named Bunnie as she was being roboticized though the process had been half-completed, she resolved to join the team.
Sonic eventually freed Mighty and the two attempted to free as many prisoners as possible, forcing Robotnik to abandon the camp. One of Sonic's earliest missions had him investigating one of Robotnik's slave labour camps there, he met a young Mighty the Armadillo and Ray the Flying Squirrel, who had both been imprisoned. By the age of eight, Sonic was easily defeating Robotnik's Badnik hordes. Using guerilla tactics and espionage to ruin many of Robotnik's schemes, Sonic's speed proved to be a crucial element to the team's success. Over the years, Sonic and the others struck back against Robotnik's growing empire. While in Knothole, Sonic and Sally became inspired by Tig Stripe's band of Freedom Fighters, eventually forming their own group called the Knothole Freedom Fighters with their friends Rotor Walrus, Antoine D'Coolette and young Miles "Tails" Prower. Sonic himself was tasked with locating as many children as he could find and bring them to the haven of Knothole by Colonel Tig Stripe, which he successfully did. During his takeover, Sonic's uncle Chuck was captured and roboticized as well, effectively making Sonic an orphan.

Sonic and his friends were present on the day Miles "Tails" Prower was born, and Sonic was sure they would grow up to be great friends. Both of Sonic's parents had fallen victim to the Roboticizer, his father during the Great War and his mother after its end, forcing his Uncle Chuck to raise him alone. Sonic and his friends returned to Mobotropolis at the end of the Great War. When the King realized the Great War was going badly for the Mobians, he ordered a large number of the children in the city, including his daughter and Sonic, to the sanctuary of Knothole Village. Sonic first met Sally Acorn during one of his uncle's many visits to King Maximillian Acorn.
Sonic eventually had his name legally changed, with no disrespect meant to his forebears. While his parents originally named him after his grandfathers, Sonic quickly picked up his nickname due to his incredible speed which he would use to run everywhere. Sonic was born on day 162 of the year 3220 in the planet Mobius during the early days of the Great War to the loving couple Jules and Bernadette Hedgehog in Mobotropolis.
