4	Now you know ''Anime/SonicX'', right? The fourth incarnation of the blue blur's animated adventures?
5
6	Well, take that series, [[{{Redubbing}} strip away the audio track]], rewrite the story and [[EditingWorks re-edit practically]] '''[[EditingWorks everything]]''', and you get the first AbridgedSeries[=/=]GagDub[=/=][[EditingWorks Completely edited series]] of the whole ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'' franchise.
7
8	You see, ''Sonic F'' [[TheAbridgedSeries adapts, re-works and mocks]] what was once an edited translation of the [[Anime/SonicX second anime version of Sonic]], which was originally intended to be more faithful to the games before the whole [[CulturalTranslation Westernization process]].
9
10	It is worth noticing that there were several attempts at creating AbridgedSeries for [[Anime/SonicTheHedgehogTheMovie the anime OVA]] as well as ''Anime/SonicX'', but those eventually became OrphanedSeries. Therefore, the ''Sonic F'' series has transcended everything. ''Everything.''
11
12	Created by [=Cyberlink420=] and [=Gamebuddy123=], episodes are released under the banner of ''Sonic Paradox'', the same Sonic fanimation team responsible for the ''WebAnimation/SonicShorts series''.
13
14	In 2022, the Sonic F crew launched a podcast called “The Hill is Always Greener”, where they have discussions about the franchise of Sonic the Hedgehog as a whole.

17	----
18	!This AbridgedSeries provides examples of:
19	* AbridgedSeries: Okay, so it doesn't say so in the title. But still.
20	* ActuallyPrettyFunny
21	-->'''Eggman:''' ''(after having to cope with E-51's mishaps)'' Boys, fetch me my tools!\
22	'''Decoe''': But we're right here, your rottenness! ''({{Rimshot}})''\
23	'''Eggman''': laughs Alright, [[SincerityMode I was a real genius for programming that one.]]
24	* AesopAmnesia: After getting brushed off once again in Episode 5, Amy complains to Sonic that she'll one day find someone "nice and reliable, who doesn't treat [her] like garbage." But of course Sonic knows [[StatusQuoIsGod that will never happen]].
25	* AprilFoolsDay: A tradition still going strong for the series.
26	** 2010: A Sonic plush dancing to music from WesternAnimation/SonicUnderground.
27	** 2011: Uploaded a one-shot parody called ''WebVideo/MyLittlePonyCamaraderieIsSupernatural''... which [[MissingTheGoodStuff ran over the "real" episode]] and was [[{{defictionalization}} popular enough to become its own series]].
28	--->'''Eggman:''' At last, that meddlesome hedgehog is dead, and the world is finally mine! And boy, was that ever an impressive victory! I'd hate to be the guy who wasn't there to see it!
29	** 2012: They did a ''WesternAnimation/SonicUnderground'' version of "WTF Pokemon!?!" ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVp8uNs9F_4 seen here]]), on the episode "Friend or Foe".
30	** 2013: A one-shot parody of ''[[Manga/WorldWarBlue Aoi Sekai No Chuushin De]]'', titled "A Sucky No Choosing Day".
31	** 2014: A teaser for a new series, "NIV", the gag of which was later revealed in Episode 12.
32	** 2015: Episode 12.60024111, in which Cyberlink, lacking any other cast members to help, decides to make an episode on his own. It's [[StylisticSuck predictably low-quality]].
33	** 2016: They uploaded “lost audition tapes” of the characters.
34	** 2017: Knuckles hilariously trying and failing to perform his theme song, Unknown from M.E.
35	** 2018: Sonic F Plus. Just everything about Sonic F Plus.
36	** 2019: Sonic Fhorts. A compilation video where all the adventures that weren't relevant to the heroes' quest for the chaos emeralds are shortened and sped through.
37	* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: Brutally Parodied:
38	-->'''Chris:''' Cream! Aren't you still mad about-
39	-->'''Cream:''' I'm only six years old. I have the attention span of a hamster, so I've already forgotten why I was angry- OOH A SHINY OBJECT!,
40	** Also invoked with [[KleptomaniacHero Rouge]], after she blunders into a trap set by the GUN:
41	--> ''[[LampshadeHanging Curse my affinity for shiny objects...]]''
42	* BerserkButton: Amy has a literal one behind glass in episode 9. Said glass gets '''SHATTERED''' when Eggman destroys the bracelet she made for Sonic.
43	* BrickJoke: In Episode 6, Chris falls down and apparently breaks the stairs. In the very next episode, Sonic falls down the stairs and complains loudly why nobody has fixed them yet.
44	** Midway through episode 12, Eggman's seen ordering a pizza. At the very end of the episode after his base gets destroyed and he wonders how his day could get any worse, the delivery boy informs him that [[WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants the pizza's cold.]]
45	* CallingYourAttacks: Knuckles does this after playing too many fighting games, much to the annoyance of Sonic. Oddly enough, the second time doesn't help Sonic avoid it as he's too distracted to hear Knuckles screaming.
46	* ChildHater: Mr. Stewart.
47	** Child abuse helps Amy get through the day.
48	* CrazyCatLady: What Chuck thinks of Amy as in Episode 4:
49	-->'''Amy:''' Oh, hey look, a persian cat! ''[[VideoGame/SonicAdventure I HAVE TO SHAVE IT.]]''
50	-->'''Chuck:''' Aaaaaand that's several more levels[[labelnote:*]]of crazy[[/labelnote]]. Good job, Amy!
51	** Amy says this trope for name as soon as she realizes that [[NoGuyWantsToBeChased Sonic passes up the seaside trip, and in turn, her idea of a romantic beach getaway.]]
52	-->'''Amy:''' The first step towards my transition into CrazyCatLady has begun.
53	* DeadpanSnarker: Appropriately, Sonic is the main source of snark, but this is taken to new heights in his "LetsYouAndHimFight" episode with Knuckles, outright {{Troll}}ing Knux over how dumb and gullible he was for falling for Eggman's lies for about the 2056th time.
54	** When not being a DoubleEntendre-dropping MsFanservice (and even sometimes when she is), Rouge is this in ''spades'', especially in her [[ADayInTheLimelight Day In The Limelight]] during Episode 11.
55	*** And on top of that, [[FairCop Topaz]] is ''even more'' of a Snarker than Rouge, especially when forced into TeethClenchedTeamwork with her. The [[IncrediblyLamePun crown jewel]] of the lot, however, is her summation of the GUN's infiltration mission [[SpannerInTheWorks after Rouge led them on a wild goose chase throughout all of Eggman's fortress]].
56	--> '''GUN Officer:''' Are you ''sure'' the Engine Room is this way?
57	--> '''Rouge:''' [[ParrotExpoWhat Engine]] ''[[ParrotExpoWhat what?]]''
58	--> '''Topaz:''' You know? The ''Engine Room?'' The ''ENTIRE'' reason we're here in the first place?
59	--> '''Rouge:''' Oh, right, ''that.'' [[ILied Yeah, I have no idea where that is,]] ''[[{{Troll}} but hey, at least you guys got a good workout in, right?]]''
60	--> '''Topaz:''' ...Great. That's just perfect! (Looks at watch) And NOW the sun's about to come, ''oh, what a wonderful way to start MY morning!!''
61	* DoubleEntendre: Rouge loves these; making suggestive comments whenever possible. 50% of her lines [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs consist of crude euphemisms, gems, and crude euphemisms about gems.]] This goes to 100% of her dialogue when [[OnlySaneMan Topaz]] is present.
62	* EndingTheme: An a-capella rendition of the original [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1 Sonic 1 ending]] theme combined with Sonic's Song from ''[[WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog AOStH]]'' makes for some SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic.
63	** ''Aaaaah! It's the thing that doesn't exist!''
64	* EvenEvilHasStandards: Dr. Eggman doesn't tell Decoe and Bocoe how baseball is known as such in both worlds, simply because it would spoil the endings to most video games, and that would just be rude.
65	* {{Expy}}: [[BumblingHenchmenDuo Decoe and Bocoe]] for [[WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog Scratch and Grounder]] respectively, even moreso than in the source material.
66	-->'''Decoe:''' Here's your cards, [[CardCarryingVillain your maliciousness]], [[EvilLaugh BAHA-AHAAAGH!]]
67	** [[RecurringExtra Francis]] for [[WesternAnimation/SonicUnderground Sonia]].
68	* FanonDiscontinuity: In-universe: Knuckles adamantly insists that he has never [[WesternAnimation/SonicUnderground owned a pet dinosaur.]]
69	* {{Foreshadowing}}: Done at least once. Mercilessly lampshaded.
70	* HammerSpace: Episode 5:
71	--> '''Chris:''' Uh, where were you keeping that screwdriver?
72	--> '''Tails:''' You're better off not knowing. Trust me.
73	* IronicEchoCut: Done in episode 3.
74	* IHaveManyNames: Poor Ivo...
75	-->'''Dr. Robotnik:''' My name is Doctor Eggman!.. Er, I mean, Robotnik!.. Uh, Kintobor! Oh, forget it.
76	* IncrediblyLamePun: Episode 5.
77	-->'''Sonic:''' Now to do things old-school. ''(spindashes)'' Spin nice knowing ya, Knux. Ha ha.\
78	'''Knuckles:''' ''(catches Sonic)'' That was terrible!\
79	'''Sonic:''' So is YourMom.
80	* JumpPhysics: Sonic's Illogically High Jump Attack. "Take that, physics!"
81	* KentBrockmanNews: Scarlett tends to do this.
82	* KidAppealCharacter: Lampshaded.
83	-->'''Sonic''': "It's Cream and Cheese!"
84	-->'''Chris''': "Friends of yours?"
85	-->'''Sonic''': "More like obligatory kid appeal characters."
86	* {{Leitmotif}}: Mr. Stewart's thoughts are always accompanied by a remix of the Safe Room soundtrack from VideoGame/ResidentEvil3Nemesis.
87	* LighterAndSofter: Than Sonic Paradox's [[WebAnimation/SonicShorts other Sonic based series]]. No gore and almost no sex jokes (one appeared on the bloopers, and the other was from a picture of Tails on top of Cosmo taken out of context, and some might not even see it as such).
88	* MediumAwareness: At least of the ''Franchise/{{Sonic\|TheHedgehog}}'' franchise. Examples are all over this page.
89	* MonsterOfTheWeek: Used in the original, so [[BetterThanABareBulb it must be lampshaded here:]]
90	-->'''Eggman''': "I'll be back, you lousy hedgehog! And then I'll be back again! And again and again each and every episode! ''Long live the MonsterOfTheWeek formula!!''
91	* MsFanservice: Rouge, oh God, Rouge.
92	-->'''Rouge:''' I can't believe they called me for this. No lines and I just sit here like some incredibly hot gargoyle? Oh, this is some [[CurseCutShort bullsh-]] (Cue explosion) '''''[[OhCrap WHOA!!!]]'''''
93	** Scarlet too, apparently is Station Square's version of [[Series/HowIMetYourMother Robin Scherbatsky]] in that she's beautiful, works for a TV company and their voices are actually kinda alike.
94	-->'''Scarlet:''' Scarlet Garcia, news reporter and Station Square sex symbol on the scene.
95	** And earlier in the series.
96	-->'''Dr. Eggman:''' And all shall kneel before my perfect follicles, especially Scarlet Garcia! Oooohohohohoooh! I do love it when she kneels.
97	* NoIndoorVoice: [[RecurringExtra Danny]].
98	-->'''Danny''': ONLY THE WORST. VIDEOGAME CHARACTERS. WOULD '''DOOOOOOO IIIIIT!'''
99	* OriginalFlavor: Several of the voices. Gamebuddy, in particular, makes an awesome Drummond impression.
100	* PunctuatedForEmphasis: During Episode 4, Chris learns of the [[MineralMacGuffin Chaos Emeralds]], and finds that they're suspiciously similar to [[Manga/{{Dragonball}} Dragonba-]] COMPLETELY. ORIGINAL. CONCEPT.
101	* RealMenWearPink:
102	-->'''Sonic:''' Traveling to the mountains to sniff flowers... [[LampshadeHanging Truly, I am the epitome of manliness.]]
103	** And in episode 9:
104	-->'''Sonic:''' [[AnInteriorDecoratorIsYou Time for interior decoratiiiiiing]]! Oooh, These flowers are just the touch this room needs! They are [[LampshadeHanging the epitome of manliness]], [[RunningGag after all]].
105	* ReversePolarity: Tails invokes this in Episode 5.
106	-->'''Tails:''' Now all I need to do is reroute the connection here and reverse the polarity o-
107	* ShipperOnDeck: Amy writes [[PuppyLove Tails x Cream]] fanfiction. Tails is, understandably, not too happy about this.
108	* ShoutOut: [[ShoutOut/SonicF Has its own page now!]]
109	* ShownTheirWork: It's pretty clear the creators know a lot about Sonic.
110	* SoundEffectBleep: Curse words tend to have sound effects from the games thrown over them.
111	* StalkerWithACrush: Eggman toward Scarlett, the news reporter lady, apparently. She mentions getting calls from him and being sick of it on air and on TV.
112	* StylisticSuck: Episode 12.60024111 has Cyberlink making an episode by himself despite his lack of skills. [[ActingForTwo Obviously voicing the entire cast]], the [[ArtShift footage is replaced with crude drawings]] for lack of anything else to use, then he [[KazoosMeanSilliness busts out the kazoo for the BGM]]...[[invoked]]
113	* SuperDrowningSkills: [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded.]] Well, he does sink like a rock in [[VideoGame/SonicColors Aquarium Park...]]
114	-->'''Sonic:''' Oh, that's just ''great!'' I can run at [[MeaningfulName supersonic speeds]] but I can't even get out of a kid's swimming pool? What the hell has Sonic Team been smoking all these years?
115	** Also lampshaded in Episode 5, even when he wasn't in any danger of drowning.
116	-->'''Sonic:''' Oh, God no! Not the water! I can hear the countdown music already!!
117	*** [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] in that Sonic is actually ''paranoid'' of bodies of water, as of Episode 9:
118	-->'''Sonic:''' On a beach, I'm surrounded by water which will either [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure kill]] [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure2 me]] [[VideoGame/SonicHeroes instantly]] or [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1 trap me]] [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2 at the]] [[VideoGame/Sonic3AndKnuckles bottom and]] [[VideoGame/SonicColors kill me]] [[VideoGame/SonicGenerations slowly]]. ''[[StealthHiBye Pass!]]''
119	* TakeThat:
120	** The 2013 April Fools prank was a one-shot parody of ''Manga/WorldWarBlue'', but done in a slightly more scathing fashion than it does to ''Sonic X'', namely criticizing its weirdly DarkerAndEdgier nature, gratuitous {{Fanservice}}, and outright stating at the end that they won't ever abridge the rest of it.
121	** The show, of course, takes more than a few shots at Sonic's infamous fanbase, particularly in Episode 9.
122	-->'''Eggman''': Drag him in until he sinks as low as his fanbase!
123	* ThisIsForEmphasisBitch:
124	-->'''Sonic:''' And that was for my butt, bitch!
125	* ThisMeansWar: Sonic accepts Knuckles's challenge after Robotnik's TV blows up in his face.
126	-->'''Sonic:''' I hope you realize [[PunctuatedForEmphasis this. Means. War.]]
127	* VocalEvolution: Gamebuddy's work as Sonic is consistently good, but he improves as Cream and Chris over the episodes.
