Currently, seven "volumes", a [[TheMusical Musical]], a {{Spinoff}}, and two parody volumes have been released; it was originally planned to end with the sixth volume, but the creators have so many unused ideas left over that they've recently completed a seventh installment. However, many collaborations were not finished, and so the seventh is entirely animated by thewax70. An eighth will follow once the other animations are finished. Many members of the team have since contributed to ''SonicF'' as well.

''Sonic Shorts'' is a {{Newgrounds}} Flash collaboration by The Sonic Paradox Team [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin set in the]] ''SonicTheHedgehog'' universe. As expected, the shorts parody various aspects and scenarios of the games and [[TheAnimeOfTheGame TV shows]], but many of them contain plenty of meta-humor involving the characters' reactions to their own in-universe works.

Currently, seven "volumes" and a {{Spinoff}} have been released; it was originally planned to end with the sixth volume, but the creators have so many unused ideas left over that they've recently completed a seventh installment. However, many collaborations were not finished, and so the seventh is entirely animated by thewax70. An eighth will follow once the other animations are finished. Many members of the team have since contributed to ''SonicF'' as well.

The first volume can be found [[http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/427405 here]], the sixth [[http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/550203 here]], and [[http://www.youtube.com/user/TheSonicParadoxTeam The Sonic Paradox Team has uploaded the entire series to YouTube]]. Individual shorts can also be found on their respective creator's [=YouTube=] channels.
----
!!This collaboration contains examples of:
* ActorAllusion: One short has Robotnik mournfully flying through his dystopia belting out "Let the Heartaches Begin" by Long John Baldry, his voice actor from ''TheAdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog''.
* AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle: Parodied, yet played straight in a ''[[AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog Sonic Sez]]'' segment which tells the audience that copying Flash animations to [=YouTube=] without the author's permission is not cool.
-->'''Tails''': Now I know!
-->'''Sonic''': AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle!
-->G.I. JOEEEEEEEEE!
* BrainBleach: A common subject of shorts featuring Eggman.
* BrickJoke: Comes up often.
* CarnivoreConfusion: In volume 7, [[SonicX Chris]] tries to feed his furry friends, and provides them with what their real life counterparts would eat; Cream the Rabbit is in tears when Tails is served rabbit, and he loves it.
* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: The subject of a short featuring the forgotten Sega characters Mighty the Armadillo, Ray the Flying Squirrel, and Bean the Dynamite... who even Mighty and Ray could not remember. [Bark was left out entirely.]
* ContinuityNod: Volume 5 is full of these to previous shorts.
* {{Crossover}}: ''AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog'' Robotnik and ''[[Series/SonicTheHedgehog SatAM]]'' Robotnik both express disapproval with ''SonicX'' Eggman in separate skits.
* {{Curse Cut Short}}: Sonic: *Sees instruction for [[GuideDangIt barrel]]* "Up and Down? ''Up and down?!?'' What the fu-" *cue [[TimedMission Time Over]]*
* FanDisservice: Eggman's latest ultimate weapon? A shot of him posing in briefs set to Right Said Fred's ''Wonderman''.
* GraveHumor: Knuckles's tombstone in the Omochao short.
--> Here lies Knuckles. Unlike Sonic I don't chuckle. I like to flex my muscles.
--> He dedicated his life to the protection of a precious stone. Bit of a crap life, really.
** As well, other tombstones say "[[TakeThat R.I.P. Sonic's dignity]]" and "[[ChuckCunninghamSyndrome Mighty]]".
* GilliganCut:
-->'''Omochao:''' You got: the Fighting Gloves! They're yellow!
-->'''Knuckles:''' What the hell? [[TemptingFate Why don't you just give me some gloves with "I Am Gay" written on them?]]
-->'''Omochao:''' You got: the "I Am Gay" gloves!
-->'''Knuckles:''' *angry growl*
** Another one in volume four:
-->'''Shadow:''' You blue idiot, you ate all the eggs!
-->'''Sonic:''' Yeah, so what if I did? What're you gonna do, break my arms?
--> *cuts to Sonic lying in hospital bed with broken arms*
-->'''Knuckles:''' You really shouldn't be giving him ideas.
* GroinAttack: Sonic defeats Metal Sonic with this.
* HeyItsThatVoice: Voice actor GameBuddy has appeared in every volume. A few of his credits include Sonic, Shadow, Knuckles, Tails, Eggman, Mighty, Bean, Big, Tails Doll, The Penguinator, Heavy, and Doctor Mario. Needless to say, this often leads to TalkingToHimself.
** Along with GameBuddy is TheChio, also appearing in every episode, providing the voice of Knuckles and Dr. Eggman.
** Also appearing is Rina-chan, who makes a few appearances following Volume 3, usually as Elise, Amy, Rouge, Bunnie, or Sally. Oddly enough, these are usually in Flash Twister's shorts.
* HypocriticalHumor: ''AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog'' Robotnik calls ''SonicX'' Eggman and demands that he take his plans more seriously, then after the call, tells Scratch and Grounder to be careful with the parts for his bouncing raccoon cannon.
-->'''Robotnik''': We need to hitch it up to the ocean to stop Sonic once and for all!
-->'''Scratch''': Yes, your maliciousness!
-->'''[[TheDitz Grounder]]''': This plan makes ''so'' much sense!
* IAmTheTrope: "I AM SEGA!"
* IGotBetter: Said by Knuckles when recapping the events of episode 5.
* LampshadeHanging: When Knuckles wants to create his own Flash movie, Sonic notes a lot of the clips are him "running into things and getting hurt."
* LeftTheBackgroundMusicOn: The intro to the Newgrounds version of ''Sonic Shorts 6''.
* MistakenIdentity: GameBuddy has changed his user logo and animation style so many times it's difficult to determine which shorts he has actually created.
* MusicalEpisode: In a parody of the beginning of ''VideoGame/Sonic3AndKnuckles'', [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ad_49yrZEmI Knuckles threatens Sonic for breaking into his home by using his singing voice.]] Volume 2 has two other singing segments, although the penultimate short is more of a "dance" segment.
** A very, very ''[[NightmareFuel disturbing]]'' dance segment. Eggman's the one doing the dancing. Admittedly, he's not half bad for a fat guy.
* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: Eggman's secret underwater volcano laboratory... [[TropesInSpace IN SPACE!]]
* ParodyCommercial: One of [=SoBe=], another of [=SunnyD=].
* RefugeInAudacity: Oh, yes.
* RickRoll: Done with a Knuckles plushie in the credits of Volume 5.
* RunningGag: Throughout Volume 2, Big the Cat's attempts to catch Froggy. Eventually, in Volume 3, Froggy announces he is fed up with being chased and leaves. Big, heartbroken, hangs himself.
* SchmuckBait: Go ahead, click the dumb looking Sonic with the bird on his head in Volume 2. We ''DARE'' you to.
** Other [[SchmuckBait Schmuck Baits]] include a poorly drawn Vector in ''Knuckles Briefs'', and Mario [[MarioKart racing]] on [[VideoGame/SonicColors Starlight Carnival]] in ''Sonic Shorts Volume 7.''
* ShipTease: Plenty of [[PortmanteauCoupleName Sonamy]] moments exist in the shorts, and Sonadow is frequently hinted at (and, in one instance, Sonic and Shadow stumble across it... much to their mutual displeasure.) One skit even has a DieForOurShip moment with Shadow hitting the wall as Sonic and Amy embrace.
* ShoutOut: "Sonic Shorts 2" has a short wherein Sally is in a locker room with the rest of the female game characters. Amy then shouts "[[AzumangaDaioh An American! There's an American among us!]]"
* SmokingHotSex: Sally in Volume 6.
* SorryILeftTheBGMOn: Episode 6's opening. Eggman's robots are also often seen providing the BGM when the scene is in one of his bases.
* StopHelpingMe: Relentlessly parodied with the Omochao short.
* StylisticSuck: ''Knuckles Briefs'', a {{Spinoff}} of ''Sonic Shorts'', most prominently Big the Cat's brief. Justified by the creators, in that they had to put it together quickly for Summer of Sonic '09.
** ''Sonic Shits'' also falls under this category.
** Tails's monotone voice in the Sonic Sez section of Volume 2 is clearly a parody of Corey Bringas's Tails voice for the VideoGame/SonicAdventure games.
* SynchroVox: In "How to Create a Sonic Fan Character", the narrator guy does this when he says "lazy".
* TakeThat: Several, but the most prominent one is where ''[[Series/SonicTheHedgehog SatAM]]''[='s=] Robotnik, fed up with ''SonicX'' Eggman's AntiVillain nature, decides to blow up FourKidsEntertainment as a result. However, he then ends up changing the channel to ''SonicUnderground''...and Snively immediately starts setting up the coordinates.
** Sonic screaming "[[ChibiVampire Oh my God!]] [[BigNo Noooooo!!!]]" while holding a game box for the 2006 ''Sonic The Hedgehog'' game.
** In the the second one, a brief snippet takes a cheap shot at VideoGame/SonicDrift.
** In another, BioWare images of [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters newest Sonic character]] [[SonicChronicles Shade the Echidna]] are discovered by a [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything Sonic fan]]. His initial reaction?

However, most of the other characters merely made fun of him or made him look ridiculous.
* VillainousBSOD: Metal Sonic, after [[TomatoInTheMirror realizing he's a robot rather than the actual Sonic.]]
** Set to music from MegaManX5's [[TearJerker ending]]. And it is glorious.
* WalkDontSwim: Often played with, but most notably demonstrated by Sonic at [[VideoGame/MarioAndSonicAtTheOlympicGames the Olympic Games]]. In a follow-up short, Eggman can't swim either.
