Ebony, Rouge, Chip and Amigo for me.
Although Robotnik Jr is a strange example of something that, in regards to platformer antagonists, Sonic got dibs in first. It took nine years for the rival series to do it (Donkey Kong Jr was not an antagonist, just to clear up).

It took nine years for the rival series to do it (Donkey Kong Jr was not an antagonist, just to clear up). Robotnik Jr. was in the cartoon, he doesn't count. Plus, Mario already did it with the seven Koopa kids. Plus, it's hardly something either could be accused of copying with. The villains' son isn't exactly an obscure character archetype.

I know he was in the cartoons only, but he was still in the general franchise in some form. The Koopalings aren't a direct example (the examples are close to being clones unlike the Koopalings, and they aren't even acknowledged as his children in Japan...). And I never said it was copying (if that was the case, Bowser Junior would be inferior to Robotnik Junior. FAT CHANCE), I just found it interesting to note in regards to the clone archetype.

My bets are on: Billy Hatcher (why not), Shahra (she's a genie for crying out loud), Scratch (the SSS must unite in the next round), and Shade (she's only fighting suped-up gruntwork) for this week.

Wait, why the heck did I say Ebony when I meant Grounder?! I ADORE Grounder, I'd adopt him and take him home and pet him all day long!

METAL METAL GO GO METAL!! *pon-pon standing* Oh com'on he's the greatest bad guy of the saga!!!!! ;D Here are my votes: Metal (of corse), Sharah (has magic and is so much sexyer!) Cosmo and Shade (even if she had one game, I really like her as Character!)

It's week 12 and I'm rooting for: Bean (Maria is naturally frail, can't fight and she has NIDS/perpetual paralysis plus Bean in Sonic the Fighters was no pushover), Zonic (sure, he's probably weaker than Sonic but his combat skill as a Zone Cop and his high-tech equipment make for a tough opponent), Mecha Sonic (were dealing with Vanilla here, she's most likely even weaker than Maria), and Wave (she's almost smarter than Tails and Eggman put together, has air gear for god's sake, and, as noted by the Brotherhood of the Metallix stories and his role in Knux's STC-O story, Porker can't fight for himself after the former and probably never could anyways).
Sorry to say it but this one of the few times where I agree with STC losing a round.
On top of that, whoever said Mecha Sonic came before Metal Sonic at SNN needs a flick to the forehead.

poor STC characters! not one in! well Porker hasn't lost yet, but it would take a miracle to make him win against Wave. Archi sure isn't having a good time ither......not to mention the Sega stars characters........till now the ones that won the most are the games ones followed by the Sonic x ones. But how can that not be? it's almost obvious.....

Such a shame about the comic chars last week but right now my votes are on: Shortfuse (okay, I'm more of a Tails fan than a Shorty fan but the games Tails pails in comparison to his comic counterparts (but even it were those versions of him, they wouldn't be able to break or deactivate the Shortfuse armour w/o a super form (which the STC Tails lacks) or an EMP)), Merlina (using her full powers she kicked Sonic's ass and broke Caliburn with next to no problem; Mecha Knuckles was JUST THERE for one game), Alex Kidd (WHY ARE PEOPLE VOTING FOR OMOCHAO?!!11?), and Enerjak (Zachary could barely handle Knux with a robot suit, Dimitri's Enerjak holds the power of TWELVE Chaos Emeralds while Knux's version had most of his power drained by Eggman and was STILL capable of getting out of his imprisonment and overtook the latter's capital city (along with dispatching of 99% of THOUSANDS of countless legions of robots (which were mostly Egg Pawns but I digress)); so yeah, the reality-warping Enerjak wins).

I personally don't like Enerjak all that much. However, the Wiki is in fact referring exclusive to Enermitri and not Enerjak as the overall spirit, so I'm counting the entry as for Dimitri, thus voting him.

Before this week ends I like say that (while it make no difference) I'm voting on: Dark Oak (not even Super Sonic could take him down), Heavy (he's nigh indestructable for crying out loud), Charmy (despite being younger, Charmy has a better track record in his fights), and Ixis (as lame as he is, elemental power (or, as of now, showmelding) beats a dopey sidekick (unless Bocoe was also present)).

So it ended up being Dark Oak, NiGHTS, Charmy and Decoe. I am ok with this.
I don't have particular interest in this week, aside from being glad that NICOLE is losing, thus far.

I voted Silver/Muttski/Flicky and Black Doom this week

Post by snctcllctr on Oct 28, 2010 4:25:32 GMT
Blah, blah... this week... blah... voting on: Silver (I wasn't Seira fan to begin with), Bocoe (for the love of god, his head is a bazooka and he knows martial arts), Flicky (if only for her combat experience as a mother and as Eggman's ex-flunky/-ies), and NICOLE (she's not organic (thus, Doom can't paralyze/poison her), she has millions/billions of nanites at her disposal, and she a powerful super computer who can think a step ahead of most others (though admittedly, (as Devil Doom) Black would put up a damn good fight)).

It was a bit of a tough choice this time but my money's on: Banjo and Kazooie (for one thing, it's two-on-one, secondly, I'm pretty sure that Banjo's strength can more-or-less stand up to Sally's martial arts while Kazooie's arsonal is more than a match for NICOLE's handheld computer and a wrist laser), Julie-Su (she's as skilled a marksman as Fang, was one of the strongest members of the Dark Legion, and helped take down Dr Finitevious (something most of the Chaotix and Downunda Freedom Fighters couldn't do put together)), Bunnie (aside from Bunnie's cybernetics and Tiara's non-existance/cameo StH #134, Sugah-twan must be avenged), and Von Schlemmer (provided he has a gadget in reserve)

I'm back for the first week of round two with my bets on: Emerl (he already copied Antoine's sword skills and soon master Amy's super strength and hammerspace skills), Snively (he's almost as good at building as Robotnik and Eggman), Manic (his drums are the strongest instrument in Sonic Underground (and Mephiles' shadowmelding is ineffective against powerful energy level (take his first fight with Shadow and Omega in account)), Mephiles' shadowy minions emerge from the ground (which the aforementioned drums can shake), and Hero Chao (Teckno must be avenged for round one).

1)go Rose girl, go! Even though it's a pitty. She won't be going long....next Round it's against Knuckles and I don't think she'll win there...... 2)Manic over that freaking guy! Could never stand him! 3) Snively should have died a round agò. He's not living NOW! 4) Hero chao ^_^

Knuckles beats Eggrobo (please refer to BOTH Sky Sancturary Zones in S3&K), Metal 3.0 beats Blaze (if Metal truly is Nega's strongest then thaen it should beat Blaze even more easily than the Ultimate Mecha from Sonic Rush), ZERO (for the love of god, he's BUILD solely for catching things that fly and could take on Amy's hammer w/o even getting scratched), and Ken beats out the Tails doll (please recall that the Tails Doll does nothing but float and wonder aimlessly (as per Sonic R) and that his "scary" meme are a load of bull; please also note that Ken nearly killed Sonic... twice)

For this bout I say that: Finitevious beats Eggman (Fini hosts Chaos powers that rival those of Shadow and Knuckles, he's durable too the point where a 1000+ story fall only left him with abroken arm, AND he can use his warping abilities almost better than the Spot (a Spiderman villain) and Breach (from Generator Rex) put together), Ix pwns a Chao (his super form aside, Ix was one the toughest bosses in Chronicles while a normal Chao can barely use martial arts effectively), Eggman Nega beats Rob (I would just like to restate that Nega is basically Eggman only eviler, better, and more flamboyant (please take into account regular Eggman's building talent and his physical ability) while Rob is basically a weaker, medieval hedgehog version of Green Arrow), and Coconuts slaughters Tikal (let this sink: in an overdetermined ROBOT monkey with battle experience takes on a pacifistic DEAD echidna who CANNOT AND WILL NOT fight).
It's fan polls/crummy popularity contests like this that make me question democracy sometimes. I mean, Christ, the terms Broken Base, Fan Dumb, Hatedom, and at least ten more TV tropes do not begin describe how f*cked up the a**/arse the Sonic fanbase is.

I don't even know what you're complaining about. Are you complaining because the character you don't like isn't chosen, so that makes them "fan dumb"? C'mon man, the rest of the fanbase have opinions too. And I wouldn't really question democracy because of a fan-poll for a CARTOON HEDGEHOG. Also, you do know that this is a popularity poll, not a fight, yeah? So it doesn't really matter if Ix could beat a Chao in a fight, if more people like the Chao, the Chao'll win.

Yes, you ARE indeed correct but just once I would like these people to give a romotely good reason for the current victors. I mean haven't you noticed the lame reasons given for certain matches or how divided the fanbase is in general. I do, however, completely recant that democracy I was had watched that 'Batman vs Batman' fight from the Justice Leauge episode "A Better World". So yeah, mostly my bad. Besides, this is the only I have and probably ever will complain about this.
(BTW, Shadow, Espio, Chaos, and Gamma)

I thought the only reason that was needed, divided fanbase or no, was "I'm voting for [insert character's name here] because I like them more than the other character", but fair enough.
