Flame the Sunbird

Flame the Sunbird is some Kazooie (albeit male) ripoff that is somehow involved with the Chaotic Combo. Much like Punchy, he is a master of Random-access humor and often says lines completely unrelated to what's going on. Some argue he is a ripoff of Bean the Dynamite, a character from Sonic the Fighters. Seeing as Chris rips off everything under the sun it's likely he's a mixture of both characters.

In the Comic
Flame the Sunbird is a minor character in the comic. His role is to look after the Legendary Master Sunstone; however, it is stolen by Blake acting under the orders of Giovanni. Just to reiterate, its entire purpose in life is to protect this stupid fucking rock, only to have it stolen by some big-shit rip-off of a rip-off in an eyeblink mere seconds after being introduced. It is later returned to its correct place when the Chaotic Combo & Sonichu defeat Blake.
Flame also appears in the Episode 18 Prologue. When the Chaotic Combo are celebrating their 19th birthday, Flame is in attendance. He has not been seen since, even in the massive Sonichu 10 everybody-shows-up-again brawl.
Flame is Not a Pokémon
Interestingly enough, in his introduction, Flame remarks that he is not a Pokémon, nor is he related to one. Only a few pages later, he uses the Pokémon move Drill Peck when chasing Blake as he escapes on his hover board. Why Chris bothered to contradict himself like that is never explained.
An interesting correlation has been drawn between Christopher's super-ultra-unique character Flame and Moltres, also known as the "Flame Pokémon." Moltres is a legendary bird drawn in the image of the phoenix, who can be found in part of Victory Road in the original Pokémon Gameboy games. Because no credit was given to the Pokémon creators by the true, honest Chris Chan, it is universally accepted that the similarities are purely coincidental and not a complete rip-off.
