He was created to be the ultimate life-form by Dr. Eggman's grandfather, Gerald Robotnik. Shadow does whatever is necessary to achieve his goals, and because of this he has fought both alongside and against Sonic the Hedgehog. Shadow's primary abilities are his supersonic speed and ability to use Chaos Emeralds to manipulate time and space. In Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, he is voiced by Jason Anthony Griffith, who also voices Sonic.

[edit] Trivia
- Shadow is pretty similar to Wario since they both played a role as anti-heroes.
- Shadow is left-handed, as shown in the game, Shadow the Hedgehog. However, in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, he uses an epée with his right hand. This is likely because the Wii controls for that game were designed for right-handed players.
