Sonic the Hedgehog is the self proclaimed speed demon in all of Brawl. He is the leader of his, Mario and Ike's team and he has had a rivalry with Captain Falcon since they met.
Story[]
Sonic's role in the story can be explained simply as wanting to win the Smash King tournament. Sonic puts himself in the leader position of Team Sonic, consisting of himself, Mario, and Ike. Sonic proves himself as a powerful smasher, defeating both Ike and Mario at once, and a very excellent strategist, as seen in the battle against team Yoshi. Sonic's rivalry with Captain Falcon builds, as the two race, but when Link of Team Ganondorf picks a fight with them, Captain Falcon finally proves his strength to Sonic, and the hedgehog feels weak for the first time ever. When Captain Falcon's ghost reappears after his death, he tells Sonic, that no matter what, Sonic is always the fastest brawler in the world.
Personality[]
Sonic's personality is a lot like he normally is, sarcastic, somewhat lazy, and very cocky. He appears to be rash, and cold towards his teammates, but in actuality, he is kind at heart.
Abilities[]
Sonic is the fastest known character in Smash King, and so his techniques revolve around using his speed to outmaneuver his enemies. His special moves include rolling himself into a ball, and damaging enemies from the ground or air, and he can create a spring to bounce himself higher up. Many of his normal moves are simple martial arts, and he fights by using his speed combined with them to confuse his enemies.
Sonic's Final Smash is known as "Super Sonic", in which his skin turns golden, and a fiery aura surrounds him. In this form, Sonic becomes much faster and stronger, and gains the ability of flight. However, the transformation has a time limit, and Sonic expects someone like Dark Link would be able to dodge until he powers down.
After equipping Shadow's Sticker to his Matrix, Sonic inherited the ability to warp through space with Chaos Control.
Ascent Mode[]
Hyper Sonic
Sonic's Ascent Mode, which he personally calls "Hyper Sonic," puts great emphasis on his natural swiftness. Unlike Mario and Bowser, who invoked theirs by rage, Sonic unlocked his by experimenting. To activate it, Sonic transforms into Super Sonic and then uses another 7 Emeralds, effectively applying a Final Smash onto another Final Smash. As a result, Sonic's Ascent Mode still follows the properties of his original Final Smash; he is unable to maintain the form for very long.
In this form, Sonic's overall strength alone is around the same as when he's Super Sonic, but his speed is far greater. As a result, his newfound momentum makes his attacks hit much harder, and some attacks can even ignite explosions. Sonic also exhibits a latent ability to manipulate the wind and air around him. With all the chaotic power built up inside him, he could freely unleash it at any given moment like a time bomb, a technique he calls "Hyper Flash."
Specials[]
Sonic Wind (Ascent Mode): As Hyper Sonic, he can manipulate the air around himself and utilize it either as a projectile or a wind net to keep his opponent in one place.
Hyper Flash (Ascent Mode): Utilizing the power of the multiplied Chaos Emeralds built up inside himself, Sonic releases it all from his body, creating a giant burst of light.
