Sonic the Hedgehog (film series)
In the first Sonic the Hedgehog film, Pachacamac is seen among the echidnas who launched an attack on a young Sonic's home in order to seize his power for themselves[3]. He is seen shooting an arrow at Sonic's guardian, Longclaw, bringing her down and forcing her to send Sonic to Earth alone.
Knuckles (Paramount TV series)
Returning as a ghostly apparition during the events of The Warrior, now sporting a more game accurate design to him, Pachacamac serves as a guide to Knuckles who felt purposeless after recovering the Master Emerald. The Echidna chief encourages Knuckles to pass down their tribe's traditions and train a new warrior, which Pachacamac suggests to be Wade Whipple.
Later, in the fourth episode The Flames of Disaster, Pachacamac returns, this time around to guide Wade out of his current trouble and find his inner strength through what he calls a low-budget rock opera that depicts the backstory of Knuckles and how the power is within his heart. In this particular episode, Mac transforms his traditional vests into a bowling alley attendant uniform.
