Hedgehog
- Hedgehog is a Beastformer from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Born in Hogs Town, Hedgehog (ヘジホッグ Hejihoggu) had a great life until the Decepticons invaded his homeworld, Beast, raising an insurgent army from the dissatisfied cold-blooded Beastformers. As the Decepticon-allied Beastformers conquered the planet, Hedgehog joined White Leo's resistance army, becoming a Special Forces combatant. Along with Rabbit Kid, he was shot into space to track down the good Cybertronians, the Autobots, to help drive off the Decepticons and restore the old regime. He also holds the rank of King of Hogland, over Emperor Deaspider... who fights on the opposite side in the war. Okay then.
Hedgehog has close bonds with fellow soldiers Rabbit Kid and the avuncular Yellow Giraffe.
- English name: Prickly Porcupine

While patrolling space in Battleship Maximus, the Autobots discovered a pair of aliens floating in space in exosuits. After they were brought in, they introduced themselves as Hedgehog and Rabbit Kid and pleaded for help in driving the Decepticon invaders off their formerly-bucolic homeworld. Hedgehog and Rabbit Kid were eventually brought to Beast, where they met up with White Leo. Hedgehog was later part of the contingent led by White Leo that went through a cave maze to reach the Decepticon factory on Beast to rescue the slaves. During their rescue, the Autobot Transformers successfully drove away the Decepticon Transformers from Beast. Rebellion on Planet Beast
