Roboticized Masters

The Roboticized Masters were a joint series of robots created by Dr. Wily and Dr. Ivo Robotnik (also known as Dr. Eggman).

Incorporating the best aspects of Dr. Wily's Robot Master creations with Eggman's Roboticization protocols (turning Mobians into robotic organisms), these machines incorporated various special abilities. Because of their ultimately having Robot Master programming inside them, these abilities can be copied by Mega Man, as proven with Tails Man. Their Serial Numbers begin with EWN, followed by a number, but it is currently unknown which number refers to which Roboticized Master.

Because of a data cascade failure when overwhelmed by both Sonic's spin dash and Mega Man's mega buster, when Roboticized Masters have their Special Weapon copied, they end up returning to their original state.

The Roboticized Masters also carried a self-destruct protocol, as Knuckles Man and Rose Woman revealed to Proto Man and the restored Team Chaotix when ambushing them.

Trivia

 * Vector Man is based off the game Vectorman which is made by Sega. Sonic even briefly commented on this in Sonic the Hedgehog Issue 249.
 * Sonic's attempted nicknames for Espio Man and Charmy Man, Sting Chameleon and Blast Hornet, were references to the Maverick characters in the Mega Man X series of the same name.
 * A brief shot of the Roboticized Masters showcasing their names and Special Weapon names, in Sonic the Hedgehog Issue 249, referenced the layout of the Robot Masters in the Mega Man classic games, and to some extent the Mega Man X and Mega Man Zero games.
