King Boom Boo in Sonic X.

King Boom Boo also appears in Sonic X with a different purpose of that in the games, and completely independent from the series' adaptation of Sonic Adventure 2. He is the central plot of the stand-alone episode "Sonic's Scream Test", where he is sealed in a old castle instead, where Lindsey Thorndyke is shooting a film with her as lead role. He is able to mimic the speech of others instead of simply being limited to grunts, which he does so to trick Amy into releasing the ghosts by faking Sonic’s voice.

After Amy realizes she has been tricked, she tries to hit him with her Piko Piko Hammer spitefully, but the ghost is able to disappear quickly. However, Sonic is able to hit it with the aid of a Power Ring Spin Dash. After this, the ghost is enraged and chases the group of heroes up a staircase, chewing and destroying them. As they reach the surface, Amy and Chris successfully seal King Boom Boo and the rest of the ghosts with the aid of an hourglass.

Compared to his game appearances, King Boom Boo seems to be more interested in mischief than into harming the heroes. However, when angered, he seems to take them on seriously.

-'''King Boom Boo''' is a boss in the Heroes side of ''[[Sonic Adventure 2]]''. You fight him as [[Knuckles]] after the [[Death Chamber]] level.

+{{mainArticle|{{PAGENAME}} (boss)}}
+In King Boom Boo's debut appearance in ''Sonic Adventure 2'', he haunts the pyramid where [[Dr. Eggman]]'s secret base is located. He is the fourth boss of the Hero side story, and is fought by [[Knuckles the Echidna|Knuckles]] after he finds the three Gate Keys in [[Death Chamber]] that open the door towards the centre of the base.
-He is the King of Ghosts, and thus you can not attack him directly. You have to attack his minion which is holding an Hourglass. Hit the minion when the boss does his flame wall attack. This hourglass opens up a sunroof letting light in the room, causing the boss to retreat to the wall or the floor. Using Knuckles' digging ability, dig right on his shadow to force him out in the open. He will then flee from you, allowing you a chance to score some hits on the boss. Do this all before the hourglass flips again, for then the sunroof will close, and he will regain his strength from the dark. Repeat these steps till the boss finally goes down.
