Egg Pawn

The Egg Pawn is a variety of robot created by Dr. Eggman in the Sonic the Hedgehog series.

In the Mario series, however, two Egg Pawns appear acting as obstacles in some of the Dream Events of Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, walking in the middle of the circuits, blocking other players. When a player runs into the, at the slightest touch, they will explode, stunning the player for a second. This also greatly decreases his/her speed, and he/she has to gain speed all over again. After one has exploded, they are soon replaced after another lap is complete.
