Emerl was another one of Sonic's best friends, though their relationship did not last long. The hedgehog was the first one to establish a Link with the robot, and was the one to come up with the name "Emerl". Throughout the incident in which the Gizoid was involved, Sonic would make several attempts to protect his new friend from the clutches of Dr. Eggman, who sought him to conquer the world, in addition to other opportunists who wanted to exploit Emerl to their advantage; even willing to go to extreme lengths to save the Gizoid from danger.
Despite Emerl growing wiser and smarter over time, he would still be close to Sonic. Addtionally, the robot appeared to have inherited the hedgehog's boastful and impulsive, but kind personality. After the Gizoid's encounters with Shadow, Sonic quit his position as his guardian and wanted him to live his life to his fullest. Tragically, however, the robot's merciful character was what led to Eggman setting in motion the events that led to the Gizoid's destruction at the Death Egg. This forced Sonic to go to the doctor's spaceship himself and defeat the rogue robot, who now sought to use the Final Egg Blaster to destroy the earth. In the aftermath, the hedgehog witnessed Emerl's destruction, even attempting to convince him to go back to his world with him and his friends. Soon after, he comforted a saddened Cream and assured his companions that they would meet the Gizoid again in the future.
