*Pearly the Manta Ray is a character that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics. She is a mobian manta ray and the apprentice of Coral the Betta.

Pearly is a gray-colored mobian manta ray with light green eyes. She has a light gray muzzle and spots on both of her sides on her head. She also has a dark-gray oval on the top of her head, one long eyelash on each eye, a fin on each wrist and ankle, and a pointy tail. For attire, she wears an orange dress, black leggings with yellow rims, and a gold necklace with a green gem. Pearly's head is actually the shape of a manta ray, hence her name.

Pearly is naive, childlike, kind, gentle, sweet, and fascinated by mysterious and astronomical events, such as Aquarius' rebirth. She is usually a bit shy and reserved at first around new people, but warms up to them eventually, though she is earnest to the point of being a little pushy. She is devoted to helping and protect the Eusebes Temple and its Chao Garden, but she is wary when it comes to Chao; being around them makes her afraid as she finds their appearance very creepy.*
