Knuckles the Echidna (ナックルズ・ザ・エキドゥナ Nakkuruzu za Ekiduna?) is a fictional character in Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog series of video games. He is a red anthropomorphic echidna who is determined and serious but sometimes gullible. He can glide and climb up walls, and is a powerful fighter due to his spiked gloves. He serves as the guardian of the Master Emerald, a huge gemstone that controls the series' integral Chaos Emeralds.

Knuckles debuted as an antagonist in Sonic the Hedgehog 3 in 1994; Doctor Eggman tricks him into opposing Sonic and Tails. He first became playable in Sonic & Knuckles later that year; he learns of Eggman's trickery and teams up with Sonic during that game's events. Since then he has appeared in dozens of playable and non-playable roles, as well as in several series of comic books, Western animated television, and Japanese anime. He is one of the series' most popular and recognizable characters.

His reception from critics has been mostly positive; he has been praised frequently as tough and cool-looking. However, some critics have voiced disapproval at the series' extensive cast of characters and singled Knuckles out as ushering them in. His likeness has frequently appeared in Sonic merchandise.

During conception of Sonic the Hedgehog 3, the development team wanted to create a new rival for Sonic.[1] The final design of Knuckles was the result of dozens of possible designs inspired by numerous different animals.[1][2] The emphasis of the character was to break walls.[3] He was originally planned to have a Jamaican accent.[4]

Knuckles was created by developer Takashi Yuda, who never intended him to be any more than a "supporting character."[5] Knuckles was introduced in Sonic the Hedgehog 3 as an "intimidator" because of his powerful abilities.[6] He was given a headlining role in the next game, Sonic & Knuckles, where he made his first appearance as a playable character.[7]

Knuckles is a 16-year-old red anthropomorphic echidna, the only living descendant of a well-established clan of echidnas.[8] For many years, his clan guarded a giant gemstone called the Master Emerald, which controls the Chaos Emeralds, objects central to the Sonic the Hedgehog game series.[9] As such, Knuckles has spent most of his life atop a floating island called Angel Island, guarding the Emerald from harm.[10] He has grown up fairly introverted as a result.[8]

Knuckles has a serious, determined personality, described as keeping cool in combat.[11] However, he sometimes loses his composure and gets in fights with other characters, and is sometimes shy around girls.[12] His relationship with series protagonist Sonic is ambivalent: Knuckles enters the series as an antagonist of Sonic and later sees him as both a friend and a rival,[13][14][15] while envying Sonic's adventurous lifestyle.[11] He is depicted as somewhat gullible and of mediocre intelligence.[9][16] He has often been tricked by longtime enemy Doctor Eggman, but is stated in one game manual to have become more skeptical of him.[17]

While somewhat slower than Sonic, Knuckles is depicted as one of the series' strongest characters and a skilled martial artist: his brawny physique
