Classic Sonic is the name commonly given to the incarnation of Sonic the Hedgehog present during his earliest games, up until Sonic got a redesign with the release of Sonic Adventure on the Dreamcast in 1998. This original design is very similar to his current design, but is smaller, chubbier, younger, has black eyes instead of green, and is silent in most of his appearances.
During Sonic's 20th anniversary in 2011, Classic Sonic made a comeback in Sonic Generations, where he teamed up with Modern Sonic (his older self, using his current design) in order to stop Dr. Eggman and his classic counterpart, Dr. Robotnik, who altered time and space with a monster called the Time Eater. Due to the fact both designs of Sonic were present in the game, the name Classic Sonic was given to this original design in order to distingush between the two, and is treated as a separate character of sorts. Originally, Sega stated that Classic Sonic wasn't likely to make a comeback in future games; despite this, Classic Sonic has since appeared in Sonic Mania and Sonic Forces.
In M.U.G.E.N, Classic Sonic has been made by various creators.
