Christian's Favorite Hits!
Christian's Favorite Hits! is the fateful CD cover, made for a graphic design class in high school, which sparked the creation of the Internet's favorite Sonic recolor OC, Sonichu. Chris claims to have gotten an A+ on the assignment.[1] The other characters on the cover are Christian's original Pokémon Espanolic, Koffingroo, Plautistic, Buggzap and Strongtire. Note, many of the other drawings on the cover are also uncreative combinations of Pokémon and other objects. Unsurprisingly, the CD tracklist is a very liberal interpretation of what constitutes a hit.
In Chris' own words:
| “ | On the fateful day on March 17, 2000, I wanted to feature on my Favorite Hits CD Cover life-long hero, Sonic the Hedgehog, and cute newer character, Pikachu, but Copyrighted Characters were prohibited from the project.
So, in my mind, I pondered and pondered when it hit me visually; Sonic and Pikachu combined. |

| “ | HE IS NOT JUST A POLYMERIZED pair of Game characters; He is his own Electric-Hedgehog Pokemon Self, and I have my own circled "C" on him, so there. | ” |
