If this method is used and {{SSBB|Ganondorf}}, {{SSBB|Captain Falcon}}, {{SSBB|Luigi}}, and/or {{SSBB|Marth}} have not been unlocked yet, then none of them can appear through Classic Mode until Sonic is unlocked.

The time can be further reduced by playing Special Brawl with Speed set to Fast. If the player fails to defeat Sonic, they can re-fight him by playing another VS. match to completion.

|dairdesc=Sonic stalls for a brief moment, then shoots downwards foot first. A [[stall-then-fall]] move with a very generous late auto-cancel window and very low ending lag, making it surprisingly safe for a stall then fall. It is not very strong however. The attack works like the Stomp Dive from ''Sonic the Fighters'', but resembles the Sonic Rocket from ''Sonic Battle''.

:''See also: [[:Category:Sonic players (SSBB)]]''
*{{Sm|6WX|USA}} - 3rd at Glitch 2
*{{Sm|Canpy|Japan}} - Widely considered the best Sonic player in Japan. While it is unknown how much he regularly competed, he placed 49th at the supermajor {{Trn|Sun Rise Tournament}}, the only documented case of a Sonic player placing top 64 at a major/supermajor outside of North America.
*{{Sm|BAM|USA}} - Beat mikeHAZE, Rich Brown, and Falln
*{{Sm|Espy|USA}} - The best Sonic player of all-time. He placed 5th at {{Trn|MLG Dallas 2010}} with victories over {{Sm|Tyrant}} and {{Sm|Rich Brown}}, which is considered the best Sonic performance in the history of ''Brawl''. Outside of MLG Dallas, he notably placed 13th at {{Trn|WHOBO 2}} and 17th at {{Trn|WHOBO 3}}, and would commonly place top 8 in mid/low tier ''Brawl'' brackets. In 2014, he would retire from competition after a 9th place finish at {{Trn|WHOBO MLG}} and switched to ''Smash 4'' shortly after the game's release, but still managed to rank 65th on the [[2014 SSBBRank]], which was the highest ranking of a Sonic player during the peak of ''Brawl''.
*{{Sm|Canpy|Japan}} - Best Sonic in Japan, placed 49th at [[Sun Rise Tournament]]
*{{Sm|Meekspeedy|Canada}} - The top Canadian Sonic player and was relatively active through most of ''Brawl''{{'}}s lifespan. While mainly competed locally during ''Brawl''{{'}}s prime, he also placed 7th at {{Trn|Get On My Level 2014}} and 49th at {{Trn|Apex 2014}}, and placed 78th on the [[2014 SSBBRank]]. In the post-''Smash 4'' era, he became the best Sonic player of the metagame, ranking 18th on the [[2016-2017 SSBBRank]] due to his 4th place finish at {{Trn|Get On My Level 2017}} and 13th place finish at {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2017}}. After 2017, he became less active and hasn't competed in a tournament since 2019.
*{{Sm|Espy|USA}} - Best Sonic in the World
*{{Sm|StaticManny|USA}} - While more known for his performances as a {{SSB4|Sonic}} player in ''Smash 4''. He notably competed in ''Brawl'' tournaments during the 2014 season and garnered some notable results at majors, including 17th at {{Trn|SKTAR 3}} and 33rd at {{Trn|Apex 2014}}, defeating {{Sm|Larry Lurr}} at the latter tournament. His Apex run allowed him to place 68th on the [[2014 SSBBRank]], being a few spots below {{Sm|Espy}} and outplacing {{Sm|X}} on the ranking.
*{{Sm|Meekspeedy|Canada}} - Top Canadian Sonic main. 4th at GOML 2017
*{{Sm|X|USA}} - The second best Sonic player of all-time. While not as active as Espy, he boasted similar peaks when he was most active, placing 5th at {{Trn|Winter Game Fest VI}} and 6th at {{Trn|MLG Dallas 2010}} defeating {{Sm|Lee Martin}}. While he saw a decline in performance and activity after MLG Dallas, he continued to place top 64 at majors such as {{Trn|Apex 2014}} and was ranked 72nd on the [[2014 SSBBRank]].
*{{Sm|StaticManny|USA}} - Placed top 64 at Apex 2014, beat DEHF
*{{Sm|Tesh|USA}} - Beat ALSM, Illmatic, Denti, Xyro, Gnes, X, Razer, and Trela
*{{Sm|True Blue|USA}} - Best Sonic in Florida
