E-Series RobotsFrom Sonic RetroIn the Sonic the Hedgehog series, Doctor Eggman (or Dr. Robotnik in the early western version) has created many robots. The designation E-series gained prominence after the release of the video game Sonic Adventure, superseding the term "badnik" which had been used to describe Eggman's animal-style robots previously in most continuities. Presumably, the "E" stands for "Eggman", though this is not known for certain. 
Sonic Adventure RobotsThe first use of the term E-models was in Sonic Adventure. Although most often connected with the E-100 Series of gunner robots that were prominent in that game (see below), other minor robots were also considered E-models. They are listed here.
E-100 Series
Unlike many of Eggman's robots, in Sonic Adventure or previous games, the E-100 series were important characters in their own right. They were gunner robots, still in the developmental stages. The most prominent was E-102 Gamma, who was a playable character during the game. Main E-100 Series robots from Sonic Adventure include:
On Sonic X, Beta replaced much of Zeta's role. So much, in fact, that Zeta only appears on the show in Episode 31, "Revenge of the Robot", when Gamma comes to the Hot Shelter to destroy him. Sonic Adventure 2 Robots Further E-series robots appeared in the game Sonic Adventure 2. Notably, the E-1000 was an upgrade of E-102 Gamma, though in this game it served as a normal badnik-style enemy and has two cannon arms instead of one machine gun arm and one normal arm.

Sonic Battle
Sonic Riders Sonic Riders included the E-10000 series; two of which, E-10000R and E-10000G, were unlockable playable characters.
Sonic X RobotsSeveral robots, supposedly from the E-Series, appeared in the television series Sonic X. However, since Sonic X occurs in a slightly different continuity from the games, they cannot necessarily be considered canon. They are as follows:
