'''Knuckles''' is a playable character in the ''[[Brawl]]'' mod ''[[Project+]]''. He was revealed on March 17th, 2020 and was made available in P+ 2.0, which released on the same day. Knuckles is one of the three characters that were not originally playable in ''Brawl'', with the other two being {{PM|Mewtwo}} and {{PM|Roy}}. Unlike Mewtwo and Roy, Knuckles is a brand new character rather than a ''Smash'' [[veteran]]. | '''Knuckles''' is a playable character in the ''[[Brawl]]'' mod ''[[Project+]]''.

Unlike Mewtwo and Roy, Knuckles is a brand new character rather than a ''Smash'' [[veteran]]. | ||
Knuckles was one of few characters originally planned for ''[[Project M]]'', but development of his character [[wikipedia:development hell|went into limbo]] after ''Project M'' ceased its own development following version 3.6. Knuckles is the first clone engine character from a third party universe, the third clone engine character overall, and the only newcomer to appear beyond what ''Project M'' intended. | |||
As a possible callback to ''Sonic'' games made around the same time as ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', [[wikipedia:Dan_Green_(voice_actor)|James Snyder]] (credited as "Dan Green"), who voiced the character between 2005 and 2010 before being replaced by Travis Willingham, reprises his role through re-purposed voice clips taken directly from that era of ''Sonic'' games. | |||

| Dig/Drill Claw|| | | Dig/Drill Claw|| || ''Grounded'': Knuckles will dig into the ground for some frames, then enter it. The player can move underground for a short time, which can be extended by holding down the B button, before unearthing with an uppercut, akin to his introduction in Sonic the Hedgehog 3. Can be used to become totally invincible, as well as get around projectiles. The uppercut has a sourspot on the late hit.<br/>''Aerial'': Based off of the Drill Claw move in ''Sonic Adventure 2''. Knuckles will spiral downwards in a stall-then-fall move. If the B button is held down while landing, he will dig into the ground. From there, it functions like the grounded version. | ||

| Diving Punch/Glide || | | Diving Punch/Glide || || ''Grounded'': Knuckles jumps up and performs a diving punch, similar to the Stone Breaker Punch from Sonic the Hedgehog (2006).<br>''Aerial'': Glides around the air, can cling to and climb up and down walls. If the opponent interrupts your glide or if you press Z while gliding, Knuckles will perform an Aerial version of the Diving Punch instead of the Glide. The glide can be directly cancelled into aerials. | ||

| Spring Jump || | | Spring Jump || || Bounces into the air off of a yellow spring. Compared to Sonic's version of the move, Knuckles does not go as high, as yellow springs in the Sonic series send you less further than red springs, giving it weaker potential as both a recovery option and method of gaining height for juggling. It also has an upwards launch angle on the spring projectile, giving it much better combo potential. Otherwise, the same as Sonic's. | ||
