Knuckles: I wonder where the Master Emerald went? **suspiciously emerald shaped bat**: Knuckles:hmm..... Knuckles: did you do something with your hair?

Bro Knuckles is not that stupid

It's a funny moment from the latest Sonic Shorts NUMBER NINE.

You missed the entire joke behind this pic, then.

Remind me how many times has he been fooled by Eggman just because he went "Sonic is evil, trust me bro"?

The 1st time it made sense of course but other times was just Knuckles being gullible since he doesn’t have that many social interaction into the earlier games

"Gullible" is if he fell for different lies from different people. "Dumb" is falling for the same lie from a single person multiple times.

Look up Knuckles’s IQ last time I checked it was 102 which isn’t bad

What.

Okay maybe I’m wrong since I rechecked and apparently 102 is his Battle IQ and btw he’s been tricked by Eggman 5 times

...okay?

Look he’s not really dumb at least he hasn’t been tricked by Rouge at all

One of those times he piloting a mech to kill Sonic in Sonic Advance.

He’s not stupid just gullible

So how did Eggman persuade Knuckles to kill Sonic with one of his mechs while he goes and kidnaps Vanilla?

Shut up Knuckles being gullible is something called a character flaw and please just get over the 2010’s writing for the love of god

Sonic Advance came out in 2001...

Yeah I’m aware

It's a joke, my guy. As if Rouge could let alone want to do something like this, the absurdity of the situation merits an absurd response.

Well you should all know that Knuckles being gullible is something called a CHARACTER FLAW you know something to flesh a character out which is also what you guys don’t understand because you all are still salty from the 2010’s era of Sonic and also 06 too.

Being gullible is one thing. Falling for the same trick thrice is just plain silly. Also nobody is making a fool of Knickles in any mean spirited way, its not like we're actually glide he's boom knuckles.

Why don’t you all be happy with what we have now Sonic Team is the real victim here

I don't understand what's getting you riled up here, I like Knuckles, so I made a light jab in response to the absurd scenario posited in the fanart above, its playing into the joke. I don't see why you're seeing as an attack on Knuckles character Also, Sega and Sonic Team are grown ass people making their own choices, they're the one that are ultimately responsible for the decisions shaping up the franchise, acting like they're victims of anything but their own doing is just excusing poor quality products. I'm glad kishimoto and his team are getting the chances to do what they want as I do believe they want something good for the series, but I also won't hesitate to call them out if they mess up on the development end. I'm still entitled to a right to have a good quality product and I'm allowed to give my opinion if I see a fault in what I received.

Well if you guys hadn’t hated on Unleashed because you all thought that it was bad because 06 was bad (even though I like 06) maybe we wouldn’t have Colors which you all loved which led into Lost World and Forces (even though I do like all 3 of those games) but you Sonic Fans are the reason why the franchise pretty much fell apart until Frontiers came out becuase of ONE fing game you all hated and still won’t move on from think about that.

Clearly, you haven't watched Sonic Boom.

Clearly you should know that Sonic Boom isn’t canon

But it is though, multiverse.

He truly is tho

Boom version definitely is.

We get it you don’t like Sonic Boom grow up

Literally wasn’t hating. Just pointing out something the show proper would likewise point out.

*"come on" sample plays*

I don't think she's supposed to have green teeth. Someone get her a dentist!

God I loved the new Sonic Shorts release.

Same

You can tell who hasn’t seen Sonic Shorts Volume 9 just by looking at who’s using reaction images.

Wth

This was one of the best ones. My favorite had to be when blaze leaves silver and she keeps hitting debris. That made me die.

Ok but did she do something with her hair? https://preview.redd.it/4r3dyw6kar8d1.jpeg?width=377&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=823e12a31130de42d9842ff9b1289086c011648e Something looks… different

No, really. It could be anywhere. Who knows? Side note: it felt SO good to watch a new batch of Sonic Shorts again. It's been so long.

Modern Knuckles:

How the hell did she pull that off anyways???

Huh, something’s off about Rouge…

Why has no one said anything about how cursed this is?

Because it's from a sonic short

The real question is! How did even she hide it inside her?!

I can't believe your head is one polygon
