Rated 8+ for Violence
Sonic: He is not very unique. He can't fly or climb. Everything he can do the other characters can do. He's your average character.
Tails: He can do everything Sonic can do, only he can fly.
Knuckles: He can do everything Sonic can do, only he can climb.
Cream and Cheese: Same with Tails, they can do everything Sonic can do, only they can fly.
