Count Graduon is the prime mover behind the forces of evil in Sonichu. Count Graduon is an ancient evil spirit residing in the scepter of the evil witch Mary Lee Walsh. Despite being a supernatural being of great power who threatened the ancient Native Americans, Graduon inexplicably holds the the title of a low-ranking nobleman in European society.
Graduon's name derives from Christian's feelings about his graduation from high school.[1] Beyond his anger and embarrassment about not receiving special treatment at his class's commencement ceremony, Christian likens his departure from high school to being forced from comfortable surroundings and cherished friends. He also regards his efforts to adjust to life after school as a great adventure story, so it should perhaps come as no surprise that the man-child's greatest enemy is a metaphor for growing up.
Chris claims that Graduon (and Reldnahc) is inspired by "basic evil wizards, and evil twins from various tv shows, movies and anime and book stories."[2]
In the comic
According to the Anchuent Prophecy, Count Graduon is an ancient being of supreme evil sealed away by the leaders of the Cherokee and Wasabi clans. Interestingly enough, despite being trapped for thousands of years, Graduon was able to go to the moon and teach Silvana, as well as give her a penis.
The Prophecy foretold that upon its own discovery by Sonichu, Graduon would be released from his imprisonment to endanger mankind. Once Sonichu alerted Christian of this fact, Chris accepted the powers of Chris-Chan Sonichu in order to find and defeat Graduon.
When Chris-Chan, Wes-Li Sonichu, and Saramah Rosechu discovered the ancient evil they were looking for, they found an enormous golem marauding through CWCville at the behest of Mary Lee Walsh. It was soon revealed that Walsh's scepter contained the evil spirit, who identified itself as Count Graduon after the three prophesied electric creatures defeated the golem.
Graduon has not yet established his motive for aligning with Mary Lee Walsh and targeting Christian, his city, and his friends. It may be inferred from the Anchuent Prophecy though, that Chris's super powers are a critical threat to Graduon's evil, so therefore he seems to ally with her primarily because they see him as a common enemy, but for their own reasons between them.
Christian has stated that at the end of the "first season", he will fling Count Graduon to the moon, breaking the staff in which he is imprisoned. He then hinted (in other words, revealed) that whilst he is there, Graduon finds and possesses Metal Sonichu preparing to bring back to CWCville as a new villain. His primary motive might be to use the robotic copy as a replacement vessel for his broken staff, but it's speculated that Metal Sonichu will get to battle Sonichu (or Chris, depending on how you look at it) again if the story continues.
In Sonichu #9, it is revealed that he cannot stand Mary Lee Walsh — er, Slaweel Ryam — due to her inability to either defeat Chris and his Electric Hedgehog Pokemon, nor either free him or give him a new body. He was content to let her die when she nearly fell off a platform whilst fighting Sonichu, but when Sonichu saves her, he holds off and waits for a chance to utterly remove her from the picture.
In Sonichu #10, however, Chris smashes the staff at the behest of Slaweel Ryam in order that she can "punish him another day". Whatever this might mean, it looks like Graduon is out of the picture for the time being, allowing Chris to focus on a new set of villains. This is not entirely unconnected to the rapid rise of Asperchu as the primary source of Chris's ire.
If Sonichu #11 is ever finished, Chris claims that Graduon will return: "METAL SONICHU is NOT a secondary character; HE will be making his return as a MAJOR VILLIAN after Book 11 Possessed by the soul of Count Graduon."[3][4] However, he later said that this would happen in "12 or later."[5]
Appearance
Count Graduon is shown mostly as an energy being inside a lollipop-like sceptre, presumably with the immeasurable evil being trapped inside the purple crystal on top of it. This may be inspired by The Adventures of The American Rabbit, in which the main villain, Vultor, is a vulture on top of a staff.
Issue #9 shows his anthropoid form as either a "Gray" alien with purple eyes, an albino gingerbread man, an ersatz Lord Voldemort or a dark silhouette that Chris could not be bothered to color. He also has angry-looking purple eyes, and for whatever reason, he is seen sporting a faggy cape of some sort.
In ModNation Racers however, he takes on a different and somewhat more intimidating appearance, still retaining the similar eyes and basic body shape, but is instead a purple color, with blue and white muscle tissue-like strings on his body, darker purple-red eyes, and spiked wing-like growths protruding from his back and head, making him somewhat resemble Tabuu from Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
Amazingly, Graduon might be another of Chris's more "original" characters, even if he is mostly just the living personification of the negative feelings towards his graduation.
