For [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]], Sonic does not appear until the very end, after [[The Great Maze]]. As every fighter makes it to where Tabuu resides, he prepares his Off Waves, which would have turned every character into a trophy. As soon as he's about to release the attack, a blue blur dashes past the fighters, and rams into both of Tabuu's wings, causing the Off-Wave attack to fail. 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. Sonic, along with [[Jigglypuff]], [[Squirtle]], [[Link|Toon Link]], [[Wolf O'Donnell|Wolf]], and [[Samus|Zero Suit Samus]], is one of the only characters that are never seen as trophies in The Subspace Emissary.

Sonic reappears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' as a playable character, making him the first third-party veteran fighter. This time, however, he is available from the start. He is also now voiced by Roger Craig Smith in English instead of Jason Griffith; additionally, he is now voiced by a different voice actor in different regions (e.g. he has a French voice in France). However, his voice clips are recycled voice clips from other games, with his voice clips of rising from water (only in the Wii U version), sleeping, and one of his attack grunts being archival recordings of Jason Griffith from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. His appearance has been updated to reflect his design in his more recent games such as ''Sonic Colors'', which in turn are based on official 2D and CG artworks.
Sonic returns as a playable fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', no longer having to be unlocked. Sonic is now voiced by a different voice actor in different regions. However, his voice clips are recycled from other games, with his voice clips of rising from water (only in the Wii U version), sleeping, and one of his attack grunts being archival recordings of Jason Griffith from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Sonic's design is based on more recent games at the time such as ''Sonic Colors'', which in turn are based on official 2D and CG artworks. The only major differences to Sonic's moveset is that his {{iw|smashwiki|down smash}} is a split-kick, and his Spin Dash is followed by a lunging kick afterwards. Sonic's moves inflict more {{iw|smashwiki|knockback}} whilst having a lower damage output. Sonic's {{iw|smashwiki|air speed}} and fast-falling speeds were increased, but his walking speed was made slightly slower. One of Sonic's {{iw|smashwiki|alternate costume}}s is based on [[Silver]]. Besides Sonic, a stage based on {{iw|smashwiki|Windy Hill Zone}} from ''{{iw|sonicretro|Sonic Lost World}}'' appears in the Wii U version and the returning Green Hill Zone stage in the Nintendo 3DS version.
 
His moveset is almost completely unchanged from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''; the only real changes are that his down smash from the previous game (a back-and-forth Spin Dash) has been replaced with a split-kick, while his dash attack (a Spin Dash) has him perform a lunging kick afterwards. Sonic's overall damage output is lowered, but many of his attacks deal more knockback. Sonic's air speed and fast-falling speeds are both faster, while his walking speed is slightly slower.  
 
One of his alternate colors in this game seems to be based off [[Silver]]. Along with Sonic himself, a stage based on [[Windy Hill Zone]] from ''[[sonicretro:Sonic Lost World|Sonic Lost World]]'' makes an appearance in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' as well as the returning Green Hill Zone appearing in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS''.

Sonic returns as a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Like ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', Sonic is an unlockable character instead of being available from the start. Sonic's basic moveset appears mostly unchanged aside from his dash attack, which is now solely a lunge kick. His Final Smash, Super Sonic, returns, but he travels much faster than before, and he moves automatically back and forth while his height can be adjusted, in a vein similar to [[Pac-Man]]'s Final Smash. As with several other returning characters, Sonic's victory theme has been slightly shortened compared to the previous installments. Both Green Hill Zone from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and Windy Hill Zone from ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' return as well.
Sonic returns as a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', now being unlockable. The only notable difference to Sonic's basic moveset is his dash attack, which has been changed into solely a lunge kick. As Super Sonic, returns, he travels much faster than before but travels back and forth automatically at an adjustable height. Sonic's victory theme is slightly shorter than before, like several other returning fighters. Both of his home stages reappear, Green Hill Zone and Windy Hill Zone. Sonic receives benefits from universal changes, like other fighters, having much faster quick mobility; less {{iw|smashwiki|landing lag}} with his aerial attacks; a reduced {{iw|smashwiki|short hop}} timing; the ability to perform a directional air dodge; and the ability to use any grounded attack out of a run and any of his aerial attacks while climbing {{iw|smashwiki|Ladder (stage element)|ladder}}s. Sonic takes minor damage from swimming in water, like with {{iw|smashwiki|Charizard (SSBU)|Charizard}}, {{iw|smashwiki|Incineroar (SSBU)|Incineroar}}, and {{iw|smashwiki|Inkling (SSBU)|Inkling}}, based on his inability to swim in the ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' games.


Like all other characters in the game, Sonic receives benefits from universal changes: his already quick mobility is much faster; his aerial attacks have less landing lag; his short hop timing is reduced; he can directionally air dodge to aid his recovery; and he can use any grounded attack out of a run and any of his aerial attacks while climbing ladders. In a similar vein to fellow veteran [[Charizard]] and newcomers [[Inkling]] and [[Incineroar]], Sonic takes minor damage from swimming in water; this is due to him being unable to swim in his home games.
In the opening cutscene of {{iw|smashwiki|Adventure Mode: World of Light}}, Sonic tries to run away from {{iw|smashwiki|Galeem}}'s large laser attack, but he slows down in an attempt to save {{iw|smashwiki|Pikachu (SSBU)|Pikachu}}, only for both to be caught by Galeem. Sonic is located in the {{iw|smashwiki|Sacred Land}} of {{iw|smashwiki|the Dark Realm}}, and defeating him is required to progress.


In the World of Light trailer, Sonic tries to run away from [[Galeem]]'s large laser attack, but slows down in an attempt to save [[Pikachu]]; this fails, with both of them being captured by Galeem and used to create puppet fighters. Sonic is found in the "Sacred Land" sub-area of the Dark Realm, and is one of the fighters required to be defeated to progress.
During his {{iw|smashwiki|Classic Mode (SSBU)|Classic Mode}} route, At the Speed of Sound, the fighters are based on characters in the ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' series, and are fought in the following order:

Sonic the Hedgehog, commonly known as simply Sonic, is the eponymous main protagonist of the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise and the official mascot of Sega since 1991. His appearances in the Super Mario franchise include the Mario & Sonic series, a few years after Sega and Nintendo stopped being business rivals, but he has also appeared in the Super Smash Bros. series. His trademark power is an ability to run at supersonic speed, hence his name. Sonic is often assisted by Amy, Tails, and Knuckles, and his arch-nemesis is Dr. Eggman.

For the first two games of the Mario & Sonic series and Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Sonic was voiced in English by Jason Griffith, his at-the-time current voice actor in the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. For the latter four installments of the Mario & Sonic series, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Roger Craig Smith succeeded Griffith as Sonic's English voice since the release of Sonic Free Riders and Sonic Colors since 2010. Unlike Mario, Sonic usually has full voice acting.

History[edit]

Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest[edit]

Sonic's trademark shoes are shown in the bottom right corner next to the trash can, as well as Earthworm Jim's plasma gun

In the Cranky's Video Game Heroes awards ceremony in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest, Sonic's shoes and Earthworm Jim's plasma gun can be seen next to a trash can, along with a sign saying "No Hopers," referencing the rivalry that Nintendo had with Sega at the time. This detail was removed for the remake, which was released after Sega became a third-party developer.

Mario & Sonic series[edit]

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games[edit]

“Mario and Sonic have been respectful rivals since the early days of video games. In fact, for a long time they have been discussing the possibility of one day competing against each other. Now that they have been given the perfect opportunity to meet at the Olympic Games, we may finally learn who is actually faster, Mario or Sonic?”
—Shigeru Miyamoto

Sonic, as he appears in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games

Sonic competes against Mario and others in Olympic events in the game Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games. He is a Speed character, having the best speed in the game alongside Shadow, but his power and skill are merely average and his stamina is poor. Sonic wears a yellow life jacket during the swimming events, since he cannot swim; however, he moves quite fast in water as well as out of it.

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games[edit]

Sonic, once again, crosses over with Mario in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games. As in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, he is a Speed type character and is the fastest one in the game. In the Adventure Tours mode for the DS version, Sonic and Mario team up in order to put a stop to Bowser and Dr. Eggman's plans to ruin the 2010 Olympics and to save the snow spirits.

Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games[edit]

Sonic appears as a Speed type playable character in the Wii version of Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games, and appears in the game's opening at the beginning with the other athletes, as well as later competing in 110m Hurdles, Dream Hurdles and Dream Uneven Bars, as well as with Mario on top of Big Ben. Sonic appears as a character that can be spoken to in London Party mode in order to play minigames and earn stickers, and Mii outfits based on him and his Super Sonic form can be unlocked.

In the Nintendo 3DS version, Sonic is included in the Heroes group, meaning that he is only playable in certain events. In the Story Mode, Sonic arrives in London with Tails, where they find and clear up the red Phantasmal Fog at the Tower of London, concluding that Bowser is involved. The next day, Sonic and Tails head to Tower Bridge, where they find more Phantasmal Fog, and clear it up with the help of Yoshi, Shadow, Silver and Jet, fiding out from Bowser Jr. that Dr. Eggman is also partially responsible for the fog in the process. Sonic and Tails then move on to the British Museum, where they team up with Mario, Luigi and Toad to clear the fog from the area and find out more about the fog. After gaining some more information, the group splits up, and Sonic heads to Horse Guards Parade, where he finds Knuckles and Vector who help him fend off Bowser and clear the area of fog. Sonic then returns to the Main Stadium to meet up with the others, and helps save Cream and Cheese from some imposters when the fog returns. Sonic then heads to Stonehenge with Mario, Luigi, Toad, Tails and Omega, where he defeats Magikoopa in an Event, and after Omega recovers some memory, the group head to Big Ben to confront Bowser and Dr. Eggman. Toad and Omega head back to the Main Stadium, and the remaining four confront Bowser and Dr. Eggman, with Mario and Sonic challenging the pair. When they are defeated, Sonic helps Mario seal away the Phantasmal Fog, and then accompanies Bowser and Dr. Eggman to the Main Stadium so that they can sign up for the games, and later appears at the opening ceremony. A badge of Sonic can also be obtained from the badge machine.

Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games[edit]

Sonic also appears as a playable character in Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games. He is once again a Speed type character.

Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games[edit]

Sonic returns as a playable Speed type character in Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. In the 3DS version, Sonic, along with Mario, can be used in any of the game's events. This is the first Nintendo 3DS Mario & Sonic game to give Sonic in-game text dialogue, as opposed to his silence in previous games.

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020[edit]

Sonic reappears in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 as a playable Speed-type character. Like many other characters in the game, Sonic wears appropriate clothing depending on the event. In addition to being playable in the Tokyo 2020 events, he is one of the eight characters that are playable in the Tokyo 1964 events, using his appearance from Sonic The Hedgehog. In the game's Story Mode, Sonic gets sucked into the Tokyo '64 game system along with Mario, Toad, Bowser, and Dr. Eggman, and decides to compete in the Tokyo 1964 Olympic Games.

In the arcade version, Sonic is also a Speed-type playable character. Here, he has the best speed statistic in the game, with average technique and low power.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl[edit]

SmashWiki article: Sonic (SSBB)
Sonic the Hedgehog
Sonic being introduced in the Subspace Emissary

Sonic was originally requested to be a playable character in the previous installment according to his creator Yuji Naka, but the idea got scrapped due to time constraints.[1] He and Snake are both introduced as playable third-party fighters in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Sonic is unlockable by either playing 300 Brawl matches, completing Classic with ten fighters, or playing ten hours of Brawl matches, followed by an unlock match on Green Hill Zone. Like other unlockable fighters, Sonic can be unlocked in Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary as well. He is the fastest fighter, with fast attacks and moves based on those that he uses in the Sonic the Hedgehog games. Sonic's standard special move is the Homing Attack, in which he flies right into opponents. His down special move and side special move are Spin Dash and Spin Charge, respectively, which both involve him curling into a ball and ramming into opponents. Sonic's up special move is Spring Jump, which involves him leaping off of a spring. His Final Smash move is using the Chaos Emeralds to transform into Super Sonic, allowing him to fly around the stage to attack. Sonic's victory theme is directly taken from the 2006 Sonic The Hedgehog game, and Sonic is the first fighter whose victory theme is not from a Super Smash Bros. title.

Sonic does not appear in The Subspace until the end, after The Great Maze. He intervenes before Tabuu can turn every fighter into trophies. Sonic is shown as a blue blur at first, and is revealed to be Sonic upon jumping on to a platform. As Sonic taunts, Tabuu's wings break apart, and then six fighters are selected to fight Tabuu in the final battle. Sonic is one of six characters who does not appear as a trophy in any of the cutscenes, besides Jigglypuff, Squirtle, Toon Link, Wolf, and Zero Suit Samus.

Sonic was the final character who had been developed for the game.[2]

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U[edit]

SmashWiki article: Sonic (SSB4)

Sonic returns as a playable fighter in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, no longer having to be unlocked. Sonic is now voiced by a different voice actor in different regions. However, his voice clips are recycled from other games, with his voice clips of rising from water (only in the Wii U version), sleeping, and one of his attack grunts being archival recordings of Jason Griffith from Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Sonic's design is based on more recent games at the time such as Sonic Colors, which in turn are based on official 2D and CG artworks. The only major differences to Sonic's moveset is that his down smash is a split-kick, and his Spin Dash is followed by a lunging kick afterwards. Sonic's moves inflict more knockback whilst having a lower damage output. Sonic's air speed and fast-falling speeds were increased, but his walking speed was made slightly slower. One of Sonic's alternate costumes is based on Silver. Besides Sonic, a stage based on Windy Hill Zone from Sonic Lost World appears in the Wii U version and the returning Green Hill Zone stage in the Nintendo 3DS version.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate[edit]

SmashWiki article: Sonic (SSBU)

Sonic returns as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, now being unlockable. The only notable difference to Sonic's basic moveset is his dash attack, which has been changed into solely a lunge kick. As Super Sonic, returns, he travels much faster than before but travels back and forth automatically at an adjustable height. Sonic's victory theme is slightly shorter than before, like several other returning fighters. Both of his home stages reappear, Green Hill Zone and Windy Hill Zone. Sonic receives benefits from universal changes, like other fighters, having much faster quick mobility; less landing lag with his aerial attacks; a reduced short hop timing; the ability to perform a directional air dodge; and the ability to use any grounded attack out of a run and any of his aerial attacks while climbing ladders. Sonic takes minor damage from swimming in water, like with Charizard, Incineroar, and Inkling, based on his inability to swim in the Sonic the Hedgehog games.

In the opening cutscene of Adventure Mode: World of Light, Sonic tries to run away from Galeem's large laser attack, but he slows down in an attempt to save Pikachu, only for both to be caught by Galeem. Sonic is located in the Sacred Land of the Dark Realm, and defeating him is required to progress.

During his Classic Mode route, At the Speed of Sound, the fighters are based on characters in the Sonic the Hedgehog series, and are fought in the following order:

  1. Fox at Green Hill Zone
  2. Captain Falcon at Figure-8 Circuit
  3. Giant Metal Sonic at Fourside (Ω form)
  4. Three Kirbys at Halberd
  5. Sheik at Mushroomy Kingdom
  6. Giant Incineroar at Windy Hill Zone
  7. Final boss fight against Master Hand and also Crazy Hand if the intensity is at 7.0 or higher

Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe[edit]

The artwork of Sonic from Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games is displayed on the Mii Racing Suits screen of Mario Kart 8 (from version 4.0 onwards) and in the base game of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. If the player scans a Sonic amiibo, a racing suit stylized after him can be unlocked and used on a Mii.

Yoshi's Woolly World / Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World[edit]

A Sonic-based pattern for the Yoshis can be unlocked by tapping a Sonic amiibo into Yoshi's Woolly World and Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World. The design has blue skin with flesh-colored arms and chest, his shoes and gloves, and green eyes.

Super Mario Maker[edit]

Sonic, as he appears in Super Mario Maker.

Sonic is one of the Mystery Mushroom costumes available in the Super Mario Bros. game style of Super Mario Maker. The costume can be unlocked by clearing 100 Mario Challenge on Expert difficulty or by tapping Sonic's amiibo onto the Wii U GamePad. The sprite used for Sonic is 16-bit, rather than 8-bit, being based on his sprites from the original Sonic the Hedgehog game for the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive. Collecting the Mystery Mushroom for this costume plays the jingle for earning a continue from said game, and all of Sonic's sound effects are taken from the original games. Pressing +Control Pad up prompts Sonic to look upwards while playing the Ring-collecting sound. Finally, Sonic's "course clear" and "lose a life" fanfare originate from Sonic the Hedgehog 3 as the course clear and game over fanfare, respectively.

Super Mario-kun[edit]

Sonic made a special appearance in Mario & Sonic at Tokyo 2020 Olympics, a bonus Super Mario-kun story released in the 500th issue of Corocoro Magazine.[3] In an adaptation of Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020, Mario and Sonic act as rivals in various events. Mario is so confident he will win, he tells Sonic that if he loses, the manga will be renamed to "Super Soni-kun". Throughout the chapter, Mario gets increasingly frustrated until Sonic reveals the only reason he made a guest appearance in the manga was to get to know Mario and become friends. After making up, the two proceed to the final event, the 100m Dash, before Yoshi gives Mario a Golden Dash Mushroom. After Sonic accuses Mario of cheating, the two get into another fight.

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.

His abilities in this form far surpass his normal ones, and he's even able to fly. He uses a lot of energy in this form, so he can only remain in it for a short time.

A certain hedgehog from a certain series you just might have heard of. Unlike most hedgehogs, he's incredibly fast. Like most hedgehogs, however, he can't swim. He's by far the fastest runner of all the fighters, so take advantage of that by making sure no one gets the chance to hit him. (Just try not to end up in the water.) (British English)

  • Pit: For being a hedgehog, Sonic really isn't very spiky, is he?
  • Viridi: Yeah, I've seen spikier. It's true that you're more likely to find him curled up in a cute, harmless ball.
  • Palutena: Not so harmless. That round shape lets him Spin Dash with ease.
  • Pit: I've changed my mind. He's entirely too spiky.
  • Viridi: Spin Dashes are hard to stop, though.
  • Palutena: Just keep your cool and don't lose focus. You can stop Spin Attacks using your Orbitars or Bow.

amiibo[edit]

  • Sonic the Hedgehog is the fastest hero in the world, famous for his supersonic speed, iconic blue spikes and red shoes. With a super cool attitude and easy-going demeanor, Sonic has a love for freedom and adventure. Spinning head-on into trouble to defeat the evil forces of Dr. Eggman, for Sonic saving the world is the name of the game.

Trivia[edit]

The artwork
  • After Sonic's appearance in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Mario was suggested to appear in Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing early in development as an exclusive character for the Wii version. However, Sega did not approve as they believed that it could conflict with the Mario & Sonic series.[4]
  • Near the end of Mario Takes America's development, the developers made multiple "backup" edits should they lose the Super Mario license. One of them featured Sonic replacing Mario.[5]
  • In acknowledgement of Mario's 20th anniversary, Sega released an illustration on the Sonic Channel of Sonic wearing Mario's cap alongside text reading "20th HAPPY MARIO!"
