Knuckles is a character in Tails Gets Trolled. He is a friend to Tails and is first seen talking to Shadow. He initially tags along with the Troll Slaiyers, "helping" Shadow think of ways to fight back against the trolls. Later, he meets with Tails after he has joined The Defenders and smokes weed with him and others in a grand party.

History

Involvement with Shadow

Knuckles is first seen talking to Shadow after Sonic and Tails (unsuccessfully) return from attempting to speak to the trolls who had harassed Tails earlier. He later accompanies Tails and Shadow when Shadow offers to show Tails how to properly deal with trolls.

After the two trolls are murdered, Knuckles helps bury the two of them and high shovels with Shadow before leaving. The next time he is seen, he is sleeping with Rouge and Donkey Kong. After some time he wakes up confused and questions Rogue (later revealed to have contracted the clap from her). Tails then appears to alert him that Sonic is in trouble after being confronted by a pack of trolls. The two leave to help Sonic, and arrive just in time to see Sonic slaughter the trolls.

In the fight against the trolls, Shadow begins to create the Awesome Fucking Plan, which involves staging a fake Justen Beaver concert to lure trolls into and destroy them. A flashback in Chapter 14: puppet battle reveals that Shadow and Knuckles assist Coyote in killing the Road Runner in order to receive funding to build a fake stadium with. Knuckles stays with Shadow's group to build the stadium for a while, but leaves to see Tails when he is texted by Sonic about Tails being injured.

Some time later, Knuckles appears briefly to tell an injured Tails that he fucked up big time (in reference to Tails unsuccessfully attacking a troll and injuring himself in the process during Chapter 2: trolls attack) and that Sonic is now out for blood.

Knuckles is not seen again until the end of the Chapter 6: silver's mission. Following the death of Sonic, Knuckles appears and asks Shadow if Sonic's girlfriend, Amy, is now single. Shadow, disgusted at Knuckles immediately attempting to make a move on Amy after Sonic's death, explains that he is thinking of different plans to fight back against the trolls with his group, the Troll Slaiyers. Knuckles suggests firing Teemo out of a cannon straight into the troll base to ambush them, but his plan fails and Teemo is "killed" after being launched into a mountain. Knuckles then leaves to smoke his smart weed in order to assist with thinking of more plans.

Knuckles returns in Chapter 10: silver's plan and tails training after smoking his smart weed. He also brings Amy with him, who is depressed over Sonic's death. Knuckles then explains what he was doing in the meantime.

Knuckles' amazing plan.

After Googling the location of a nearby troll base, discovered a chatroom where various trolls discussed their duties. Acting as a newbie, Knuckles asked where one of these bases could be found and made his way over there, while smoking weed. When he was confronted by a group of trolls, Knuckles makes peace with them, saying "why fight when we can get high?", and proceeds to have a good time with the trolls. Annoyed, Shadow asks what he accomplished, and Knuckles explains that his plan was to simply get high and he did. An angry Shadow reprimands him for wasting his time with his story.

After some time with the group, Shadow and Knuckles begin to argue. Shadow punches Knuckles and rants at him about not taking his troll-slaiying plans seriously. Later, in a fit of rage, Shadow then proceeds to obliterate a town of random people. Disgusted, Knuckles leaves Shadow's group.

The Weed Party

Knuckles is seen midway through Chapter 17: Psychological Assessment, purchasing a bag of weed from Cheeto Man in the Defenders' base. It is here that he is reunited with Tails. Knuckles, Tails, Cheeto Man, Spyro, and Doug then all proceed to get high.

While high, Knuckles mentions Hello Kitty's many sexual escapades with Shadow and other Defenders, a fact that annoys Cheeto Man. After some banter, Knuckles calls over some "STD-free bitches" (Amy included) to Cheeto Man's party. Knuckles, Amy, and Tails then chat in a hot tub, where Amy's traumatic past is revealed to the group. Tensions begin to rise as Amy flirts with Tails, provoking Hello Kitty into fighting her.

Knuckles and Amy then leave the hot tub and enter a room alone together after the fight. He reveals that he has strong feelings for Amy, and was jealous over his friend Sonic's relationship with her. After a heated conversation, he and Amy then have sex one last time before executing their plan.

The following day, Knuckles and Amy meet with Cheeto Man to pass her into his prostitution ring. Knuckles reveals his true feelings of hatred towards Cheeto Man and that his bitches being STD-free were a lie, with both animals now having the clap. Cheeto Man and Knuckles fight before they are interrupted by Tails.

Aftermath

Knuckles leads Tails away from the Defenders' base. After some talking, he reveals the true purpose of the Defenders and how Cheeto Man is the true leader of the group, with all others serving under him because their loved ones have been taken hostage. He also warns Tails that the Cheeto Man is likely going to kill him because he had slept with Hello Kitty, who is his wife. However, Tails refuses to believe so.

Tearfully, Knuckles leads Tails to a dumping grounds (featuring Amy, and the rest of the women brought over by Knuckles) where Cheeto Man sends all his STD-ridden prostitutes to die. He advises Tails to seek out Shadow for safety, because he has been evading Cheeto Man for years, before leaving.

Personality

Knuckles is initially shown to be laid back, bantering with his friends and making silly remarks. During his time with the Troll Slaiyers, his care-free personality (leading to the first death of Teemo via the "cannon plan") often clashed with Shadow's serious and more focused approach. He is also a fan of smoking weed, even claiming that it can make him smarter.

As the story goes on, it is revealed that despite his silly exterior, he also cares deeply for his friends and is willing to do whatever it takes for their benefit, demonstrated by his willingness to pass the clap on to Amy to spare her from a life of prostitution. He cares for Tails very much in particular, admitting to Amy that he was concerned as to why Tails is with the Defenders, and comforting him when he reveals the truth to the group. His friendship with Tails also gave him the power to fight back against Cheeto Man once he heard his voice. It is also shown that despite their differences, Knuckles does respect Shadow's abilities when he suggests that Tails should seek him out again to hide from Cheeto Man.

Knuckles is also shown to be envious of Sonic's relationship with Amy, claiming that the blue hedgehog never understood how valuable Amy was and wishing that he could have been the one to be with Amy.

Abilities

Knuckles mainly fights using his fists. He is shown to have the ability to create cracks in the ground in different location from where he punches it as shown during the flashback when he and Shadow assist Coyote in hunting the Road Runner. He is also capable of gliding as seen in Chapter 1 when he rushes to watch Shadow kill trolls.

Real Life Origins

Knuckles the Echidna first debuted in Sonic the Hedgehog 3 as an enemy tricked into working for Eggman. As time went on, the Echinda would find himself becoming one of Sonic's most trusted allies.

Difference between him and his various counterparts

General

Unlike in the comic, Knuckles is usually depicted as a competent fighter and leader, though the quality of these skills varies from source to source. Knuckle's relationship with Rouge is also something that varies from version to version, though in all versions that she is present in Knuckles usually has at least some form of attraction to her. Knuckles has always been a spiritualistic individual, which may have been the source of him being a marijuana user in TGT (Individuals with connections to spiritualism are often stereotypically depicted as drug users).

Main series games and IDW

Knuckles' personality and intelligence often varies in the games. In some games, he's a wise but arrogant and hot-headed warrior with the sole duty of protecting the Master Emerald from the evils that wish to use it for malevolent and often cataclysmic purposes. In others, he's a complete imbecile and often used for comedic relief. The Knuckles in Tails Gets Trolled borrows elements from both of these depictions, with him being a complete idiot for most of the book but later serving as a mentor for Tails and preparing himself for sacrifice. As a result of his later actions, it's entirely possible that his airheaded behavior could be an act.

Archie Comics (Pre-Reboot)

Perhaps one of the more iconic and controversial depictions of Knuckles, the Knuckles from Mobius Prime is almost nothing like his counterpart in TGT. For starters, his extended family (With the possible exception of Tikal due to the presence of the Chaos Emeralds) does not exist. In addition, Knuckles in the Pre-Reboot era spent most of his time trying to help defend his people from such threats as the Dark Legion, the Dingo Regime, the Mobius Underground and Thrash the Devil rather than fighting Robotnik or other threats. He's also much more powerful than his TGT counterpart, capable of threatening all of reality when at full power.

Furtherly, rather than being promiscuous in terms of relationships, Knuckles has devoted himself to his girlfriend-turned-unofficial wife Julie-Su. Even at his darkest and least mentally stable, Knuckles has gone out of his way to ensure the safety of Julie. In contrast, Knuckles in TGT was willing to infect several women with STDs, some of which were his friends, just to kill Cheeto Man.

Archie Comics (Reboot)

After the reboot in the Worlds Colide crossover event, Knuckles became much more similar to his counterpart from less recent games. His history is mostly identical to his game counterpart. However, like in Tails Gets Trolled, Knuckles has an easier-going relationship with Shadow than in most other counterparts. This makes him one of the closer counterparts to Knuckles in TGT.

Sonic Boom

The Knuckles in Sonic Boom is perhaps the closest to his counterpart in Tails Gets Trolled, often being airheaded with the occasional burst of intelligence. As Angel Island and other major aspects of his character do not exist in the Sonic Boom universe, he is often closer to Sonic and co. than most of his other counterparts. Sonic Boom Knuckles, like his Post-Reboot Archie counterpart, is perhaps one of the closest incarnations to the version in Tails Gets Trolled.
