'''Amy Rose''' is a pink female anthropomorphic hedgehog from the ''{{wp|Sonic the Hedgehog}}'' franchise who is infatuated with [[Sonic]]. Her only appearances in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] is in every installment of the [[Mario & Sonic (series)|''Mario & Sonic'' series]], as one of the participants in the Olympic events.

==History==
===''Mario & Sonic'' series===
====''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games''====
In ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games]]'', Amy appears as an All-Around character, featuring good skill and stamina stats, average speed, and below average power. Her stats are similiar to Mario, but her strength is tied with Luigi for being the lowest out of the All-Around characters. However, she also has the best stamina out of all the All-Around characters.

Amy utilizes some sort of heart power similar to Peach for her special moves. In the [[Wii]] version for Amy's [[Dream Table Tennis (Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games for Wii)|Dream Table Tennis]] special move, she laughs and hits the ball over the table covered with hearts with a "Go!". It hovers in above the table for a second, then plummets down. This move is quite easy to return, but if it does not, it will probably knock the opponent over. In Amy's [[fencing]] special move, she lunges forward, propelled by her heart power in one powerful jab.

====''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games''====
In ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games]]'', Amy appears again as an All-Around character. Her special move has her spinning around with a bunch of hearts saying "Okay". In the Adventure Mode of the DS version, Amy is found in [[Sparkleton]] where she will join the player's team if the player beats her in [[Ski Shooting]] (Dream Biathlon). In [[Frostown]], there is a mechanism that requires Amy to hit it with her [[sonicretro:Piko Piko Hammer|Piko Piko Hammer]].

====''Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games''====
Amy makes her next appearance in the Wii [[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Wii)|version]] of ''Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games'', returning as an All-Around type playable. Like the other female athletes, she has a new outfit worn for [[Gymnastics]] and [[Aquatics]] [[Event]]s, while keeping  her winter outfit for Equestrian and wearing her sports outfit from the original game for all others. This is the first ''Mario & Sonic'' game to feature Amy being voiced by Cindy Robinson rather than Lisa Ortiz. In the game's opening, Amy appears with all of the other athletes at the start, as well as competing in [[Synchronized Swimming]] and [[100m Freestyle (Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games for Wii)|100m Freestyle]]. Amy also appears as one of the characters that can be spoken to in order to play minigames and win stickers in London Party mode.

In the [[Nintendo 3DS]] [[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Nintendo 3DS)|version]], Amy is included in the Girls group, meaning that she can only be played as in certain events. In the Story Mode, Amy first appears when she finds [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]] in [[Hyde Park]], and the pair are later attacked by [[imposter]]s, causing them to collapse. They are later found by [[Princess Peach|Peach]], [[Blaze]] and three [[Toad (species)|Toads]], and after the purple Toad mentions seeing [[Rouge]], the group find her and help her recover from being brainwashed. Rouge then leads them to the [[fog machine]] in Hyde Park, which Blaze destroys, and Amy, the rest of the girls, Toads and Rouge decide to stay there to keep an eye on it. Amy is later mentioned by [[Knuckles (Sonic the Hedgehog)|Knuckles]] and [[Vector]], who explain to Sonic that they had come looking for [[Bowser]] on a tip from Amy. Amy lose appears calling [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], Sonic and [[Tails]] to offer support when they face Bowser and [[Dr. Eggman]], as well as appearing at the opening ceremony. In the bonus episodes, Amy appears helping Peach, Blaze and the Toads preparing the invitations for the Olympic Games, and challenges Blaze to an event so that she can deliver Sonic's invitation to him early. Although she wins the challenge, she stays behind anyway after Blaze accidentally scatters the invitations, and ends up rewriting Dr. Eggman's. When Daisy arrives, Amy tries to join her on a shopping trip, but after the pair are defeated in an event, they both stay behind to help finish the job. In the final episode, Bowser and Dr. Eggman arrive to try to get their invitations, but after Amy and Peach defeat them trying to make them wait, they decide to get them anyway. When Peach and Amy return, they find that Bowser and Dr. Eggman had left and assume that they found their invitations, and they head on a shopping trip with Daisy, Blaze and the Toads to celebrate the completion of the invitations.
