'''Sonic''' ({{ja|ソニック|Sonikku}}, ''Sonic'') is a character from [[SEGA]] who appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as one of the two third-party characters (the other being {{SSBB|Snake}} from [[Konami]]). Sonic was the first unlockable character to be playable prior to the game's release, first playable in Nintendo Media Summit in October 2007, shortly after he was confirmed to be in the game on October 10. A swift character, Sonic [[dash|runs]] at an extremely fast pace that surpasses even {{SSBB|Captain Falcon}}. Nintendo Power states that since Sonic is not well known for his fighting skills, some of his fighting moves were influenced by SEGA's fighting property, ''[[Virtua Fighter]]''. A majority of Sonic's moves are also influenced by SEGA's ''Sonic the Fighters'' and (to a much lesser extent) ''Sonic Battle''. Sonic is voiced by Jason Griffith in English, reprising his role from both the ''Sonic X'' anime and in the games from ''Shadow the Hedgehog'' up to ''Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing'', and by Jun'ichi Kanemaru in Japanese, reprising his role from ''Sonic Adventure'' onward.

Sonic is placed at 22nd on the ''Brawl'' [[tier list]] in the middle tier, which is his worst placement in the series. Sonic is most known for his incredible movement speed, possessing by far the fastest [[dashing]] speed, as well as among the fastest [[walking]] and [[air speed]]s. His movement is boosted farther by his [[Spin Dash]] and [[Spin Charge]] moves, which allow him to rip across the stage at incredible speed while simultaneously attacking and/or [[jumping]]. The aforementioned Spin moves give Sonic a plethora of options to attack and confound the opponent, which can make it incredibly difficult to hit Sonic, while also aiding Sonic's ability to [[time out]] opponents. Additionally, Sonic possesses one of the best [[recover]]ies, which contains many options, while gaining great distance and generally making it difficult to [[edgeguard]] Sonic. Sonic also possesses an effective [[grab]] and [[throw]] game, and generally great [[damage]] racking abilities from his Spin moves, up throw, and effective [[combo]]s.

===Matchups===
{{SSBBMatchupTable|sonic=yes|}}
Sonic has average matchups all around. He is countered by 4 characters, soft countered by 12 characters, has 10 even matchups, soft counters 6 characters, and counters 5 characters. Sonic generally does good against characters who have a hard time dealing with his speed, such as {{SSBB|Pit}} and {{SSBB|Bowser}}. However, Sonic struggles against characters who can shut down his approach options, such as {{SSBB|Falco}} with his [[Blaster]] or {{SSBB|Olimar}} with his Pikmin. Also, because of his low KO power, this puts him in a disadvantage against {{SSBB|Lucario}}, who is able to make great use of [[Aura]].

Sonic does not appear in The Subspace Emissary until the final battle with [[Tabuu]], but unlike the secret characters ({{SSBB|Jigglypuff}}, {{SSBB|Toon Link}} and {{SSBB|Wolf}}), Sonic can be chosen to fight Tabuu after [[The Great Maze]].


When every fighter reaches Tabuu, he prepares his [[Off Waves]], which had already turned every character into a trophy once before. Just as he's about to release the attack, a blue blur rams into both of Tabuu's wings, shattering them. As the blue blur jumps up on a peak, he reveals himself to be Sonic. While he taunts, Tabuu's wings break apart, and then six fighters are selected to fight Tabuu in the final battle.
When the fighters reach Tabuu, he prepares his [[Off Waves]], which had already reduced most of them to trophy forms when they first opposed him. Just as he is about to release the attack, a blue blur rams into both of Tabuu's wings, shattering them. As the blue blur jumps up on a peak, it reveals itself to be Sonic. While he taunts, Tabuu's wings break apart as the fighters make their final stand against the villain.


It is commonly believed that Sonic's minor role in the mode is due to the fact that he was added to ''Brawl'''s roster so late in development in 2007.
