Ranking How USELESS Sonic is in Every Sonic Game

I was expecting him to be the lowest tier in Shadow the Hedgehog. I was not surprised.

[@HimekoIzayoi]

And Kirby and Link.

[@heartlesshero9859]

Well mario is going to end up typical the majority, not a single worthless (at least if is luigi's mansion if he mentions it), and the elite would be new super mario bros because of mega mushroom and just using it to destroy all bosses including bowser and bowser jr., mario galaxy for defeating bowser's plans of conquering the universe and managing to save the universe, new super mario bros 2 because of the almighty golden mario that also destroys bosses and just a money maker that you would ended up with 99 lives without glitches, bowser's fury on fighting bowser's strongest yet form (i'm assuming since i haven't play it yet), mario odyssey because he can possess all creatures who doesn't have a hat or helmet, making him have more power thanks to his partner cappy, mario wonder is between typical and elite because the start of the game he saw what bowser was looking at, which is the wonder flower, mario tried to grab the wonder flower but bowser's reached it first, if mario grabs it, it just ruins bowser's plans for the very beginning and the game would not even happen which that would be funny. (If there was mention like RPG and tactics mario games there would be a bunch of elite because the main villains of those game are like stronger than bowser or their plans is even more evil than bowser that bowser denies it and fights against it (Because he wants to conquer the world, or if they mess with his minions or his son, bowser rages on the enemy)).

*My ranking* Sonic 1 - typical hero (duh) Sonic 2 - elite Sonic CD - typical hero Sonic 3 & Knuckles - elite Sonic Adventure - sidekick (but hey, I'm not complaining; Sonic characters deserve to be treated equally)/elite (there, I said it!) Sonic Adventure 2 - sidekick/elite Sonic Advance (trilogy) - sidekick/elite Sonic X - elite (and I know that considering all the times Amy Rose, Chris Thorndyke, Eggman, Knuckles, Shadow and at one instance Tails and Cream raged at him in episode 42 for standing literally everyone he knew up, maybe I should've given him a "barely wins" score at best, but then that would be looking at the character in a very one-sided view because while some of them, save for Knuckles and Shadow, had a reason to feel disappointed in him, he always needs and wants to save the day... and the world, plus it's sad that Dark Sonic gets so much hate he's never been used since because in episode 67, considering what the Metarex could do to Tails and Cosmo, of course he had a right to turn into that form) Sonic Heroes - sidekick/elite Shadow the Hedgehog - barely wins Sonic Rush - elite Sonic Riders - barely wins (I think it makes sense to be a fan of Sonic in the 2000s while admitting that while debatably, he had his good qualities, especially in the end of the game where he would defeat the true villain alongside others and have a heartwarming banter with the Rogues, it was still a major dick move when he sucked Amy Rose into a tornado. It makes you wonder if either he really didn't mean to but still could have admitted what he did was wrong. Or if it’s because he hates women in general and got jealous and worried because he felt like either she would date someone else after all the times he stood her up because he needed to save lives or because he's worried that his besties Tails and Knuckles and new-at-that-time rivals like the Babylon Rogues would one-up him) Sonic '06 - barely wins (of course, it was Team Dark (Shadow, Rouge and Omega) and Team Rose (Amy Rose, Blaze the Cat and Silver the Hedgehog) that stole the show) Sonic Storybook series (and yes, I am counting Secret Rings & Black Knight and hope they make a prequel to prove his stories true) - elite (too bad not everyone believes his stories and thinks it’s his excuses to ditch his friends) Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity - sidekick (then again, like in Heroes, he did bring his besties along with him for the adventure)/elite Sonic Free Riders - barely wins/sidekick Sonic the Hedgehog 4 - typical hero/worthless (what can I say? This game sucks! At least episode 1 does! But in episode 2, while a debatable improvement, he alongside Tails would leave the captors they were supposed to rescue on Little Planet to die, something even Characters in Depth would point out) Sonic Colors - typical hero/worthless Sonic Generations (both Classic and Modern, mainly Modern) - typical hero/sidekick (think about it, gaming has a lot of silent protagonists and as for Modern Sonic, well, while it's mainly because of him why the day was saved, he didn't learn anything from Colours where all he could do was act like a jerk jock with his objectively bad jokes) Sonic Lost World - typical hero/worthless Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric - worthless (just like the game) 3DS Sonic Boom games - sidekick Sonic Mania - sidekick/elite Sonic Forces - typical hero/worthless (I was so close to giving him a "barely wins" score since technically, he's pretty much like in Generations, Classic or Modern, but besides that, he's at his worst here either way) Team Sonic Racing - sidekick/barely wins Sonic Frontiers - elite (in fact, here, he might be at his best, especially for a post-00s Sonic game) Sonic Superstars - barely wins/sidekick

@@JohnDoe-dw3hj I'm just saying he's rated a bit high compared to some other entries due to being the 'only playable character' but Chip does a lot against Dark Gaia. Then again I guess Sonic helped him remember and kept him safe in his vulnerable state. I was saying his cockiness led to this because of Eggman turning him into a werehog after Sonic paused and said a mocking remark. He seemed to let his guard down. I may be stretching a bit because maybe he was just showing mercy to a man who seemed to have no other way to fight back as he was cornered, though. Some other games had Sonic do the work while the others sat around. His rating in Forces is odd considering that the other characters fighting the clones does literally nothing for the plot. They weren't trying to attack Sonic while he was taking on the boss that made them all disappear, so they had no reason to distract them. Plus the fact that the clones DISAPPEAR right after Sonic defeats the boss. If they were actually defending something that'd be useful, but they aren't.

I’m not making this up either as you can see Knuckles and Sonic both see Tails the exact same way in their crossover story. This is the case with most of the characters but Gamma and Sonic who are all telling the story from a biased perspective

[@Haos51]

In defense of Sonic in Adventure, he ended up landing in the mystic ruins while Eggman ended up in station square so there wasn't anything he could do to stop the missile.

I frel like you could have covered the Storybook sagas too, though I guess its not to figure out where they would be placed in, as the First Book Sonic basicaly does almost everything by himself with a couple power ups from his friend ginie, so Typical Hero. While second book Sonic needed the help of that universes(?) Shadow, Knuckles, Blaze and Amy, otherwise he would have lost but that's after defeating them (which bribgs them to gis side after Talk No Jutsu'ing them), defeating Evil King Arthur, after they help its up to him to defeat Merlin (who's also a girl? I blame Nasu for this), so Typical Hero. Same would be for Horizen DLC, as Amy, Tails and Knuckles become playable and have their own unique stuff that feels good and are needed to help Sonic with his Cyber Curroption, without that we wouldn't get the new DLC ending, so that might bring him down to Typical Hero, I think.

3:08 to be fair, Sonic runs way slower while Tails isn't looking, which can be interpreted as him trying to boost Tails' confidence up to take his role as a partner or even his own hero rather than a mere sidekick 6:20 also also, the main differences I'd say Sonic and Blaze have are: He is faster in general (knowing his title, he better), he has the Homing attack, that allows him to convert any and all momentum he doesn't want into forward momentum without a target, and some decent tricks after jumping off a spring (a slight boost upwards that can be reversed to boost diagonally in either direction and the roundhouse kick he's known for), while Blaze instead of that speed, can stay underwater 1.5 times longer than him, has a form of glide, that she can use to halt vertical momentum only, but also use to reach areas sonic would take slightly longer faster, and flashy tricks off a spring (a massive boost upwards, which can potentially skip whole areas, and an incredibly fast movement forward, that stops abruptly after a short distance, that with enough practice can be canceled to keep that momentum) tl;dr, Sonic is faster overall, Blaze has a higher skill ceiling to reach better times than him and lower skill floor, to allow people to mess up more given her tools. 7:42 Rush Adventure has it's ups and downs, while the gameplay as Sonic is relatively the same, I only saw Sonic's spring tricks getting some startup lag (and I think the roundhouse kick gains a little more height idk), but that's about it. 11:54 but some more equally than others *cough cough* Knuckles can fly and Sonic can launch himself forward like he had his usual speed *cough*

Finally, the sonic tier list

[@BBMacsWorld]

Yeah, I thought it was a giving that Shadow The Hedgehog would rank really low

[@SuperJTG500]

11:33 You're not the only one who wanted a hero to be in worthless in a certain game so badly. For me, I thought for a fact that I wanted Kirby (Squeak Squad) to be in worthless due to his naivety being at its worst thanks to going on a rampage over some piece of cake, such as blaming Dedede for taking it, and thinking that Meta Knight took it when he was making sure Dark Nebula didn't get released. But after Dark Nebula was released and possessed Daroach, Kirby did end up freeing Daroach defeat Dark Nebula at the very end, thus making me put him slightly higher, as he'll be in a ranking of barely wins.

Gives mr needle mouse had me cackling 😂😂😂😂

[@KOTSOSMC2002]

I don't understand why you gotta put down some games (like 3D Blast, 06 and Forces) before talking about Sonic's role in them, it's such a turnoff, it's not even about them being games I like or dislike, it's just distasteful at this point imo. Getting to the point immediately about 06's story (which, speaking of, it ain't even confusing, it's REALLY straight forward if you pay attention) instead of having to go through Mandatory 06 Slunder Number 347891 is such a better alternative...

[@setheatontheautobot4586]

Eggman's not making the aliens his slaves in Colors. He's using them as a power source.

[@brycesonmoon655]

2:08 hyper sonic isn’t faster. The after images make him feel faster, but he’s the same speed as super sonic

[@emilkata]

His sort of homing attack makes him very fast though. Speaking of which, this might cannonically explain how he learned to do the homing attack.

[@da-os-pepel-disgrama]

Sonic in sonic CD is the key and only key role on the history since he's the only one who can spark his squills fast enough to travel through time.

[@MusicMusic-iu9ky]

Do Mario next

[@logan4579]

My biggest flex is that all three of my favorite sonic games are in elite tier

[@quangamershyguyyz7166]

Obligatory “You forgot Sonic battle” comment

[@RealBroccoliHour]

With SA2, the Japanese version of the game (as well as Sonic X) outright state that Sonic intentionally let G.U.N. Imprison him so that he could find out more about who and what Shadow is. Sonic also technically proves himself to be stronger than Shadow during the final hazard fight as it’s directly implied that Sonic had an easier time handling the emerald’s energy than Shadow did. Sonic Forces is also an interesting case because that game heavily implies that without Sonic, Eggman could take over the planet relatively easily. We also see Sonic grow from being utterly stomped by infinite to being able to combat him enough to even match his killing blow meant for Silver.

[@captkate-yz8kd]

I feel like you should've mentioned the fact that he helped save the Master Emerald in Sonic 3 and DISOCVERED the hyper form rather than his him being in hyper form. Being powerful is one thing. Being useful is another. You can be at your strongest but just sit around and drink tea. The Master Emerald being gone is a serious issue. And hyper forms could've possibly been useful to defeating Eggman in the future, though unfortunately aren't used anymore.

[@reallyhimongod]

Uhh you’re missing Black Knight and Secret Rings.. but I already know you’re rankings for them because BK would be side kick considering Excalibur is the driving force of the story and Sonic’s just there to tag along and be his swordsman. Then for SR it be either elite or typical hero, he protects the genie girl and then fights the final boss no help and in a new rage form too! You def gotta re-edit this vid and add those two fasho!

[@rainbowtoyfunrandomess1982]

Wait a minute, how is Sonic useless in some Sonic Games? He's the main character and he actually saved the world with the help of his friends. Okay, I guess he makes some terrible jokes in recent Sonic Games, but I'm sure he's not joking around as much anymore and takes things seriously.🦔💙⚡🌭

[@dbzfan6900]

I’m assuming you made this comment before watching the video

[@rainbowtoyfunrandomess1982]

@@dbzfan6900 Uhhhh, yes I did. Please don't judge me.😬

[@true-final-boss]

Not mainline, but I was shocked how much I liked Sonic and the Black Knight. Easily elite for me. Would love to see the spinoffs from you. Curious about Sonic Battle

[@Gianluca_GMS]

...youre the first person who i ever heard saying "Sonic Adventure was an excellent transition to 3D". And it's true!
