Standard Moves

Ground Attacks

• Standard Combo - A left-handed punch, then a right-handed punch, then finally a side kick with the left leg.
• Dash Attack - Rolls into a ball to hit anyone in his way, similar to when you press down while running in most Sonic games.
• Forward Tilt - Stick out both of his feet, with both of his hands planted on the ground (appearance and knockback comparable to Pikachu's F-Tilt in Melee).
• Up Tilt - Kicks upward (appearance comparable to C. Falcon's Up Smash in Melee). Very minimal knockback.
• Down Tilt - Foot sweep (appearance and knockback comparable to Sheik's D-Tilt in Melee).
• Forward Smash: Winds up his arm during the charge and attacks with a short range punch. It has a good knockback, has a fast startup speed, little lag after, but the range isn't too impressive.
• Up Smash - Sonic does a short jump and hangs at its apex for a bit doing a spin. Enemies that get hit are caught into this attack, and gets hit multiple times until the final hit, which does decent knockback (low knockback in relative to a Smash attack's standard). This has a lot of priority.
• Down Smash - Spin Dashes back and forth over a short distance around him. It has good knockback, and very good range.

Aerial Attacks

• Neutral Aerial - Spins in place. Properties are similar to the properties of the Sex Kick.
• Forward Aerial - Drills at the enemy head first rotating his body. Imagine Pikachu's F-Air (more similar to the 64/Brawl version than the Melee version).
• Back Aerial - Kicks behind him (appearance and knockback comparable to Samus's B-Air in Melee).
• Up Aerial - A flip kick similar to Fox's U-Air. First he splits his legs apart and out (capable of hitting enemies a bit to his sides) doing no significant knockback. Then he kicks up, knocking his opponents up with significant knockback. Very similar to Fox's Up-Air in Melee.
• Down Aerial - Sonic stalls for a brief moment, then shoots downwards foot first (regardless of momentum before executing this move). Appearance is comparable to Ganondorf's Wizard's Foot. This attack does NOT continue downwards until landing (although it does go down very far before stopping). It has a good amount of lag when hitting the ground, and due to its unique characteristics, is impossible to l-cancel. When hitting a grounded opponent, the angle of knockback is similar to C. Falcon's Falcon Kick, but when hitting an airborne opponent, it spikes them.

Grabs and Throws

• Forward Throw - Oddly enough, it kicks them upwards using a straight up kick (think Sonic doing the splits vertically). Can follow with Up-Air juggles, but it can be heavily DI'ed backwards.
• Back Throw - Does a back flip while spinning (and while holding the opponent) and slams them on the ground, sending them backwards with a good amount of knockback.
• Up Throw - Tosses the opponent slightly above him and then lands on his hands as if to do a push-up. His quills harden just before they make contact and the foe is shot upwards and at an angle.
• Down Throw - Throws them down and spins on them (similar to Jigglypuff's down throw but not quite the same), then knocks them a bit forward. Does a good amount of damage.

Event matches

• Event 30: Sonic Boom- The player plays as Sonic and has to KO 15 Sonics on Green Hill Zone.

• Event 39: All Star Brawl 2- Select your character to fight against the unlockable Brawl newcomer's

• Event 41: The REAL Showdown- The player faces a giant Mario, and a slightly larger Snake along with a slightly larger Sonic.

Co-Op Event Matches

• Event 17: Sonic & Mario- As Mario and Sonic take turns KOing a team of alternating Mario's and Sonic's on Green Hill Zone.

• Event 21: The Real All Star Brawl- Select your character and take on the entire roster on Battlefield

Trophy Description

The world's fastest hedgehog, who can run at supersonic speeds. Generally speaking, he loves being able to do what he wants and loathes being constrained. Holding still is something he would never consider. He's got a bit of an attitude but can't pass by someone in trouble. When he collects the seven Chaos Emeralds, he transforms into the mighty, gold Super Sonic.
