Thanks, I looked through the last few battles only to find Beta oddly unmentioned but somehow never thought to check the Informational threadmarks in spite of reviewing the Info Sheet for ideas earlier.

[X] Plan: The Hey Giveth, The Ho Taketh
-[X] Burning Mastery: The Hey Ho's Fire related systems are interconnected and enhanced giving a sort of pseudo-Pyrokinesis, its capabilities not as great as say a fire based super formb but it is still capable of virtually covering the battlefield inflamed single-handedly. 30 points, this is a capstone ability, requires at least three fire related upgrades.
-[X] Micro Tree Accelerator: Implants a miniature version of the tree accelerator into the Hey Ho letting it create and manipulate the extremely durable trees produced by these machines to some extent, it is of course much weaker than the full sized version and as such the trees are do not reach the same immense sizes but it is still more than capable of reshaping entire battlefields. 30 points, this is a capstone ability.
[X] 1 to The new Team Egg. Many to The Egg Forest.

Sorry, but this is invalid. We can only give it one capstone ability; you're voting for two capstones. On top of which, you aren't taking any of the prerequisites for one of those capstones (Burning Mastery requires 3 different fire upgrades taken before it unlocks).
[X] Plan: Pretty little fires
I say we do upgrade one more time before we use it as a team member. These things will be mass produce so I rather have a mark 2 and a special mark 3 (for team eggman) but that are just my thoughts

I think he wants to mass produce it, though that's a whole other matter.

Not sure if there's an E-Series frame that qualifies for Speed... well, unless the oft-mentioned Lady Ninja qualifies.
Personally, I'm more interested in a black ops team. Be a little hard to justify Power on that sort of team, I'll admit, since "brute force" and "sneaky" tend to be... incompatible, but it'd still be both powerful and good for utility.

-[X] Enhanced Axe: an update to the metallurgy of the Hey Ho's axe should now be able to cut through most common metals though exceptionally armored or durable specimens will still be able to resist it without much trouble. 10 Points.
-[X] Dual wielding: The power of the Hey Ho's arms are increased and it is given a second ax with which to do battle. 10 points.

-[X] Exploding fruit: The trees created by the micro tree accelerator will drop exploding fruit on the enemy. 5 points.
-[X] Spiky: The trees produced by this ability occasionally will have spiky outgrowths that make them damaging for organic matter to touch. This is not the ability results can be random. 5 points.
[X] The Egg Forest.
In case anyone else wants to go full on woodsman here's a plan for the other capstone. Too bad there's not enough points to also get Mastery.

I just realized that heyho's micro tree accelerator would also help silver sonic and alpha. With Silver sonic using his climbing quills and hydro blasters to blade from a safe spot, Alphas is a bit more simple has it's just cutting down a tree and then wielding it as a weapon.

I like the pretty little fires plan but many are voting for it and do really want to go all in with the forest. But still fine with the former as it does go with the tree accelerator as well.

Wow, I didn't even see that bit of synergy until you mentioned it, but you're right- Hey Ho does, in fact, act as a force multiplier for the other two on top of its own combat ability.
And the trees are, naturally, excellent for the platforming sections Team Egg will inevitably have to deal with, too; either climbing them to reach higher areas, or cutting them down to use as bridges. Their toughness should mean they can even support Alpha's weight.
...Hey Ho for Team Egg is looking like an incredible investment, to be honest.

Which gives the Hey Ho a good short-to-mid-range/area denial attack that doesn't require significant setup beforehand. Very nice.
In other news, I've retitled my badnik suggestions compilation for accuracy and am back to work on it.
Team Sonic vs Team Robotnik. Round 1
"Sonic, doesn't something feel wrong?" Tails asked, the Hedgehog and Fox duo walking through a forest as the boy genius couldn't help but feel something building up as he looked to the side every now and again.
"No sweat Tails, anything that comes our way will be, we'll deal with together." The fastest thing alive declared, giving him a reassuring grin as the eight and a half year old felt a bit more confident at the 15 year olds statement.
"Besides, whats Eggman gonna do to us in the fore-*AHHHH!!!* A scream cut off Sonic as a familar red Echidna landed next to them, his head shaking with little birds flapping around as he waved off the concusion that might have been forming.
"Knuckles?!" They both yelled, the Guardian of Angel Island getting to his feet as he glared up at the tree's.
"Dammit" He cursed, wiping a bit of blood from his lips "I thought I could take him on my own, but he was ready for me... "
"Who?" Tails asked, just as 3 Robots landed on the ground.
One, a giant of mech. A blaster on his green left shoulder as his design reminded Sonic of Gamma for a bit.
The second, a ghost of the trio's past, a Silver replica of the Hedgehog, a visor buzzing around as a smug grin crossed his face. Two water tanks attached to his back as his quills look a little ill adjusted compared to last time Sonic turned him into scrap.
And the third...
"Is that the Hey Ho?" Sonic asked, Tails paling as he recognised the Lumberjack themed Bot that had nearly killed him all those years ago.
It clearly updated, the wires leading down its arms, enhanced thrusters and extra axe it was carrying prove enough that Eggman had been giving it more attention of late.
"Ohohohoh, surprised?" Speak of the Scientist and he shall appear, Dr Ivo Robotnik entering the area as he floated down in his personal Egg-O-Matic.
Still a comfortable amount away from the ground and them.
"What are you doing here Eggman!?" Sonic demanded, stepping forward
"This was a trap" Knuckles answered "And we all fell for it." He bit out, Eggman's laughing doing nothing to ease his temper.
"Well, I decided I wanted to celebrate the creation of my newest group of fighters; the Egg Team" He said, presenting the trio fo badies menacingly. "And what better way to do that than to have them fulfill their specific purpose." He asked, taking out a mike as he switched to a referee's uniform.
"In this corner!" He rumbled out, lights appearing as speakers shouted his voice for anyone else in the forest to hear "We have the might, the bulky, the invincible; E100 Alpha!!!" He cried out, Alpha raising its arms in response to the imaginary crowd. Knuckles flinching as he felt the scar it gave him last time burn up.
"Next, we have the Fast, the Fluid, the Funky; Silver Sonic!!!" Silver grinned in applause, basking in the crowd "This is way past cool... " He said to himself.
"And finally, too compliment both of these amazing fighters, a blast from the past. The King of Tree's and Fire, Master of the Axe. We have; The Hey Ho!!!" Eggman finished, Hey Ho sparing his compliments no quarter, his Generator activating as several tree's shot out that hit Tails and Knuckles.
"What the?" Sonic sputtered out, caught off guard, just as Silver Sonic smashed into him as Knuckles went after Alpha.
"Oh, and did I mention he comes with a specific set of abilties to rearrange the Battlefield for your pleasure?" The mad scientist asked with a grin, just as a buzzer went off.
"May the best bot win!!!"

Nice, I was just thinking of something like this myself! Not as... theatrical, admittedly, but something in a similar spirit. ...well, maybe not AS similar as I said, but mine could very well be taken as an immediate continuation of yours, which definitely means they're similar.

Now this I enjoy, small nitpick is that it was alpha who had tails on the rope not heyho but who knows maybe we could give him another death scare in sonic adventure two.
This is from way earlier, like back years ago in the original games. Hey Ho came close to killing Tails, which he still remembers.

Speaking of which, here's the scene I was thinking, adapted into a continuation of radioxaxa's... (And as a bonus for @MrWealthman Tails gets a scare courtesy of a combination attack in it!)
Team Sonic vs Team Robotnik. Round 1, Continued
After recovering from Silver Sonic's proverbial sucker punch, Sonic leapt off to the side, avoiding its follow-up, then circled around to build up some momentum.
Silver Sonic, for its part, chose to circle in the opposite direction, both building up momentum of its own and moving to intercept its biological counterpart.
A brief hop on Silver's part enabled it to begin charging up its Spin Dash without stopping, but it unfortunately waited a moment too long, as Sonic had just enough room to slide underneath it with only minor scrapes from the metallic quills.
Knuckles separated from Alpha for a moment, seeing an opportunity to counter one of the Mobians' enemies and thus improve the odds. He braced himself, preparing himself for a single, mighty punch that would hopefully break the steel doppelganger in two.
Unfortunately for him, Silver skidded to a halt, still spinning, before turning around to resume its battle with Sonic, even as Alpha stepped in to intercept his punch with one of its own.
Arm numbed by the impact, Knuckles backed away, shaking it to try to restore feeling just a little bit faster. However, his tactical retreat was suddenly halted by his back hitting one of those trees that he knew for a fact hadn't been there mere moments before.
Hey Ho took that opportunity to dive in towards Knuckles, axes slashing at his shoulders, only to meet nothing but wood as he leapt up to grab onto Tails' hand with his good arm.
"You okay, Knuckles?" the fox asked, tails spinning as he airlifted his friend out of the way of the falling tree.
"Still a bit numb, but I'm good to go!" Knuckles confirmed. He looked back, expecting the lumberjack to pursue any second; thus, he saw the incoming attack in time to shout, "Tails, dodge left!"
Tails jerked, but obeyed, looking back through the blazing blur that just grazed him to see what had spooked Knuckles: Alpha had seized the tree that Hey Ho had chopped down, and had attempted to swing it down on their heads, while the hovering robot had used a wrist-mounted flamethrower to ignite it.
As Sonic and his counterpart reunited with their teammates, he morosely commented, "This is gonna be a pain..."

Yes! This is glorious after all tails greatest strength is his mind which is why I want to give him a heaping truck full of fear.
A. We still need spy bots first
B. We haven't made any ships yet
C. We should probably figure out what animals/bots/expies/people we want to base our Flight and Power members of the team off of
Concerning B it may be too late to ramp up production to needed levels to saturate the area for whatever fight we have incoming, so we may want to get creative with boarding craft, mines, boarding delivery systems, and one capital plus one screening ship type.
I have an image in my head of a battleship firing cannons before its control tower just splits open and a bunch of dragonfly transport bots fly out carrying our egg bots or something. And destroyers that launch other bots out of missile tubes and torpedoes instead of explosive payloads. Though the bots could be explosive.
