(+) Yeah! (+)

in terms of speed, strength, and intelligence. I'll start.

Sonic
speed: A+
strength: B
intelligence: B+

Tails
speed: B+
strength: C
intelligence: A (not "A+" because although he's a mechanical genius, he can be a bit nave as shown in games like SA2. He is still a child, after all.)

Knuckles
speed: B-
strength: A+
intelligence: C-

Dr. Eggman/Robotnik
speed: (ignoring Sonic 2 pre-final boss fight) C
strength: B+
intelligence: A+

Amy
speed: C
strength: C-

Of course it does. Intelligence isn't linear; being nave definitely connotes to one's ability to critically think and assess information.

If Robotnik's intelligence is A+, why does he always design mechs with obvious weak points? Why doesn't he just trap Sonic in a flooded or spike-filled room?

Because that has less to do with personality and more to do with game design.

Fs all around, because Sonic is terrible.

Eggman is faster than Sonic. Lol he always out running him on foot in the Genesis game final bosses

Well, if we're being technical...they're the same speed, since Eggman always has a running start and they stay the same distance apart during each chase.

What, you think Amy should be D tier if Tails is C? I don't think Amy is necessarily that much weaker than Tails on a pure physical strength level. I think Tails is far more capable, but that's another story.

There's no way in hell Tails is physically stronger than Amy.

Even in games like Riders and Zero Gravity Amy's strength stat is literally higher than Tails

Ive never seen Amy do anything that would logically suggest that shes stronger than Tails. I played Sonic CD, Sonic Adventures 1 & 2, Sonic Heroes, and Sonic 06. Shes almost always a damsel in distress. The only time Ive seen her do something physically remarkable is in Sonic Generations, where she knocks Knuckles into a tree (and that was just comic relief).

I'll say an F for everyone not names Sonic and Tails...and even those two are passable when they don't talk.

No bigger dumpster fire than the Sonic extended family.

You: Theres no way Tails is even slightly stronger than Amy lmao wtf
Me: Tails is far more physically capable; it stands to reason that despite his age and gentleness, hed be a bit stronger than the character who almost only serves as comic relief or a damsel in distress.
You: Yeah, w-well, prove it!

You made the claim that Amy being even slightly weaker than Tails is ridiculous. I explained why I feel differently. So, its your turn; what makes Amy so much stronger?

Lmao. Your argument for Amy being stronger than Tails is her taking out some basic badniks?
Tails defeated ROBOTNIK HIMSELF in Sonic Adventure.

His body. He damaged Eggmans giant mech to a state of obsoletion using physical strikes alone. Thats far more impressive than using a hammer, which would make anyone dangerous.

Seriously, did you just get into Sonic like, 5 years ago? lol

A weapon can only be as dangerous as it's user

Demonstrably untrue lmao there'd be no point of using weapons if that was the case. xD Literally anyone who has a knife/gun/sword/etc. is usually more dangerous than someone who doesn't.

It's just the final boss for Tails in Sonic Adventure. Sonic is gone, and it's up to Tails to save the entire city of Station Square by defeating Dr. Robotnik. He succeeds.

Have you...never played Sonic Adventure? To this day, that's one of Tails' most defining moments. Again, when did you get into Sonic? lol

That's not the point I was trying to make. I'm saying a random joe with a knife is way less dangerous than someone who's skilled with a knife.

But a random Joe with a knife is still more dangerous than a random Joe without a knife. My point is that weapons are advantageous by nature. Amy defeating some ordinary badniks with her hammer is cool, but nowhere near as impressive as Tails single-handedly defeating Dr. Eggman.

Amy constantly swings a giant hammer around. She must be stronger than average.

And damsel in distress? She was last one in Adventure 2. Since Heroes, she's been taking more action oriented roles against threats.

but amy effortlessly swings around the piko piko hammer. we actually have an occurrence of tails swinging it (SA3) and

This is the first bit of real evidence that Amy is stronger than Tails, and apparently by a decent amount. Good job.

Rank the Care Bears based on their stats with letter grades.

@Itennu And already, I must recede my previous acknowledgement, as this video shows Tails holding the hammer AND flying with relative ease...

Behold my floating masterpiece, The Egg Carriaaaaaaaaaaa!

he holds it downward and with both hands tho

it's very easy to just lug something around, much harder to actually swing it especially one handed like amy does

https://youtu.be/2YC5tv13UBs?t=21

Also, we know that flying takes energy out of Tails (and usually fairly fast during gameplay), so the combination of him flying and holding the hammer deserves some sort of recognition.
---

but hes still swinging it two-handed, and it takes him a lot more effort than amy with one hand?

im not saying tails isn't any kind of strong, just amy is stronger
---

Now we're literally arguing if Amy or Tails is stronger based on the cute pink hammer Amy carries around.

Whew lad, things are really heating up.

For the record, what triggers the animation of Tails struggling to lift Amy's hammer?
And I don't mind conceding to the idea that Amy is stronger than Tails, as I was never completely committed to the belief in the first place (I gave Tails a C in strength and Amy a C-, so I figured they were at least comparable). What I maintain, however, is that Tails is far more capable overall.
---

I rewatched the first 10 seconds of Tails final boss and I remembered the entire fight lol. Though it is impressive, Amy has been shown to do a similar spinning attack which is what Tails was doing.
