The Particle Charger is a device/weapon developed by the Echidnas of Albion. While it's abilities are unknown, it is apparently effective against Robians to the point of destroying them. High Councillor Gala-Na at one point ordered the destruction of the High Sheriff of Mercia through the use of such devices. However, the Albion Security Team was prevented from employing these devices by Knuckles the Echidna, as the Sheriff was in fact a Roboticized Armand D'Coolette, father of his friend Antoine.
