Miles Prower, better known by his nickname "Tails", is an eight-year-old, two-tailed yellow fox from the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, and the sidekick and best friend of Sonic. He is a mechanical genius who has the ability to spin his tails like a propeller, and thus fly. In Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games and Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games, he is voiced by Amy Palant, but in Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games until 2014, he has been voiced by Kate Higgins. He is now voiced by Colleen Villard. "Miles Prower" is a pun on "miles per hour".
History
Mario & Sonic series
Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games
Tails participates in Olympic events in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games. He is a Skill type player, with skill and stamina being his best stats. Ironically, he is quite slow in this game, while he is quite speedy in the Sonic games.
Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games
Again, Tails participates in the Olympic events, this time in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games, the sequel. Tails is a Skill type player again. His stats are given on the official site as well.
Tails made an appearance in the adventure mode of the game for the Nintendo DS. In the game, he decides to help Sonic and Mario on their quest. Tails even makes remarks about Mario when he and Sonic first meet the fox, showing that Tails respects Mario due to his heroism (similar to how he respects Sonic).
Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games
In the third installment of the Mario & Sonic series, Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games, Tails makes another appearance as a playable character. He is a Skill type player in the Wii version like the two previous installments and is part of the Heroes in the 3DS version.
This is the first game in the series to introduce Kate Higgins as the new voice actress of Tails (who takes over from Amy Palant).
Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games
Tails appears in Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games. Like previous games in the series, Tails is a playable Skill type character.

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U
Tails reprises his role from Super Smash Bros. Brawl in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, running in the background of Green Hill Zone, along with Knuckles the Echidna and Silver the Hedgehog. Tails makes an appearance as a Trophy in both versions of the game. An outfit based off of Tails appears as a DLC outfit for Mii Gunners in both versions. It was released in February 2016, alongside a Knuckles outfit.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Tails once again appears in the background of Green Hill Zone alongside Knuckles and Silver. He also appears as a Spirit.
