Sonic the Hedgehog
Starting with the 2005 video game Shadow the Hedgehog, Pollock plays the roles of Dr. Eggman, Professor Gerald and Eggman Nega. This is because Sega decided to make the voices in the anime and games match, removing all of their previous actors and also because the previous voice actor for Eggman, Deem Bristow, had died shortly after Pollock had been cast. Unlike several 4Kids voice actors, however, Mike Pollock has received very positive reviews, and has been deemed as a worthy succesor to Deem Bristow.
