* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The characters of Orbot and Cubot were almost cut from the series until Ken suggested to keep using them for ''Videogame/SonicLostWorld''. It would explain their UnexplainedRecovery.
--> '''Ken Pontac''': Cubot and Orbot, yes. They almost got cut from the series. Yeah. There were some questions from one of the groups of producers that um... they were really funny. They were great, but Eggman wouldn't have that kind of relationship with a pair of robots, and obviously we ended up winning that argument because even if he doesn't or didn't have that, you can have it now if it's really funny and works.
