Taraban is a variety of badnik created by Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik, encountered by Sonic in the Underground Zone and Aqua Lake Zone of Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (8-bit). Painted half red and half blue, Taraban models do not have any proactive offense; they merely crab-walk back and forth, damaging Sonic if he bumps into them. They are easily dispatched by a spin jump or spin roll.

Like other robots in 8-bit Sonic games, no animal friends pop out of Tarabans when they are destroyed. Whether these badniks canonically don't contain organic batteries, or the escaping critters simply weren't shown due to programming limitations, is not known.

Taraban is very similar to (and essentially the 8-bit version of) the Crabmeat badnik, though lacking Crabmeat's energy-ball attack.
