Who Is Irish the Hedgehog in the Sonic Universe?

With his blue spines and red trainers, Sonic the Hedgehog is now a legendary video game character, having spawned dozens of games, TV shows, and movies since the ’90s. But just because Sonic is the titular character, that doesn’t mean he’s the only star in the franchise. Other characters in the Sonic universe include the evil Doctor Eggman, Shadow the Hedgehog, Knuckles the Echidna, and Miles ‘Tails’ Prower.

We’re here to talk about a Kelly green character, however — one who goes by the name Irish the Hedgehog.
