Ash Mongoose (born year 3217) is the manager of the Forget Me Knots and boyfriend of Mina Mongoose. Ash is constantly competitive with Sonic the Hedgehog, partially because Mina told him about her crush on Sonic and how she was hurt when she saw Sally Acorn and Sonic kissing, however, Ash has worked with Sonic, mainly to save Mina. Ever since Ash saved Mina from an attempted assassination, nearly killing him, Mina and Ash have been inseparable and support each other. Ash appears to be cold, but Mina really does bring out a warmer side to him. Ash is seventeen years old - purposely designed to be a much older love interest for Mina.
