“ | Evil must die! Beware my ninja power! | „ |
~ Espio before battling the Egg Emperor in Sonic Heroes. |
Espio the Chameleon is a supporting character in the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise.
He is not only a martial artist and a member of Team Chaotix, but he is also training to become the world's greatest ninja trainer. His favorite foods to eat are dumplings and odango.
Over the years of the franchise, Espio has grown into a strong ninja and can camouflage like all chameleons do, and also continue practicing his skills. He also doesn't hesitate to pass the opportunity to go on an adventure with Sonic and his friends to stop Dr. Eggman.
He is voiced by Yūki Masuda in the Japanese version, and by Bill Corkery, David Wills, Troy Baker and Matthew Mercer in the English version.

Comics[]
- He and the Chaotix found an amnesiac Eggman in Windmill Village, where he had now taken up the identity of the philanthropic inventor Mr. Tinker, but decided to leave him be, seeing how much joy he was bringing to the community, even stopping a Flapper from reaching him.
- He helped Sonic and his friends save Angel Island from Neo Metal Sonic, even saving Sonic from falling to his death during the battle.
- When Doctor Starline and Metal Sonic restored Eggman's memories and spread the Metal Virus across the world, he and the rest of the Chaotix helped save several people in Seaside City from being infected and becoming Zombots.
- Upon seeing how few people were safe from the Metal Virus, he flew back into Seaside City to save an infected civilian that Vector had reluctantly left behind. Unfortunately, the civilian had become a Zombot by then and Charmy was in turn infected by a horde of Zombots.
- After being reverted back to normal, he helped the Chaotix defeat Zavok and the Deadly Six and later search for people who had gone missing during the pandemic.

Why Doesn't He Stand Out?[]
- Whilst he passes the baseline since he helped save the world and has personally stopped people from getting the metal virus (a fate worse than death), many other characters have done this too which means he fails the admirable standards.
- He can be lethal at times with his ninja tools.
