If you check Remix 64’s take on Sonic they gave him a unique stage entrance animation with Tails flying him in with the Tornado and his Down Air being ripped right from Yoshi which is ingenious and fits him like a glove too imo, he also has a sex kick too which is neat. His Stages are not just Green Hill but Casino Night and Metallic Madness to name a few.

Just as a little addition, I think that adding the ability to increase the boost meter through taunting would be a fun inclusion. Not only does it harken back to Generation's trick system, but it would encourage the player to taunt between stocks to keep the meter up, which adds to that narrative of Sonic being the ultimate cheeky bastard.

A few things I would like to point out with regards to how Sonic is portrayed… - Some of his animations do need work since they saw a regression post-Brawl. More of Sonic’s expressiveness being brought back would be nice. - Due to Smash not being unionized, Roger Craig Smith wasn’t able to do unique voice lines (as well as a number of other issues regarding to the voice actors of various characters in English). Unionizing the next Smash game would allow for us to get more unique Sonic lines next time, including Roger’s take on “You’re too slow!” & potentially the deeper tone introduced in Frontiers. There’d also be the benefit of finally getting English Cloud & Sephiroth as well as Jennifer Hale recording new lines for Bayonetta. - I’m surprised you didn’t suggest the SOAP Shoes, especially given that Frontiers brought them back as an alt for Sonic.

Amazing video! I hope Sonic gets a rework similar to this whenever the next Smash comes around. One change I’d make is somewhat bringing back his old dash attack from Smash 4. Pressing the button once would have him curl up into a ball for a multi hit attack, pressing it again would have him do the slide mentioned in the video. It’s another “ball move” which some people complain about, but I feel this one would be fitting as rolling was a big part of keeping momentum in the classic games. EDIT: Also, I feel like Up Special is a little strange. I understand the current spring being an annoying move but I feel like it could be reworked by using the modern springs that have propellers when in the air, same functionality without the gimping.

I'm guessing because movesets and character are very intertwined with each other. It's like taking away an old, super useful special move in place of a new one and then slapping it on another character. Yeah it still works, but it just doesn't _feel_ the same...

Nice to see the Blue Blur get a retooled Moveset finally as he desperately needed one since his Smash debut! You did an excellent job of toning down Sonic's speed so whenever players are fighting against him, he isn't constantly exhausting them, and whenever players are fighting with him, they aren't constantly abusing him, while still capturing the spirit of his games, and still being the fastest fighter in Smash, and also not having him curl in a ball as often! I especially love how you incorporated the Boost mechanic while also trying to make sure it isn't too OP! I even love the idea of Sonic's knee Pummel being faster to bring out while also dealing less damage, and I actually thought of a way that it could be enhanced even further! Instead of a single knee strike, now he hits his caught opponents with both of his knees individually at a fast pace, or a quick double knee strike, to stand out from other knee jabs, and also to really emphasize that speed (though it would also be one of the weakest Pummels for obvious balance reasons)! Could even give him a smug expression on his face while he's doing it to further show off his personality! Now maybe it's just me, but, I also kinda feel like Sonic has become both more expressive, and less expressive at the same time from For onward if that makes any sense, and what I mean by that is that I wish he kept his shit-eating grin from X as opposed to just smirking as while I do think the latter still fit his character, I feel like the grin really defied who he is. If we do get Smash 6/7, I do hope Roger Craig Smith says Sonic's more iconic lines in the English version of X as I'm not a fan of his newer ones in For onward. Another solid Remake It! video, Delzethin! :D Very impressive how you managed to not use much material from Frontiers while still finding ways to swap out some of his older moves with better improved ones, and leaving some of his old ones alone, and not make him as broken! I look forward to seeing what you have install for future RI videos! Maybe you could find ways to make Daisy not be a clone of Peach anymore, and could be her own, separate fighter! Or maybe include abilities from Super Princess Peach as part of Peach's Moveset while also checking to make sure it fits Smash's fighting style! Perhaps have Bowser where he isn't fast since he's much slower in the Mario universe, as well as having him use more claw attacks, and headbutts like in the past as opposed to just punches, and kicks!

quite an essay you wrote there - but having sonic's knee strike pummel alternate legs like he's jogging in place… galaxy brain idea

I've been waiting for this for a long time, and overall it's...pretty good. I especially love how you combined the Spin Dashes together AND added the Drop Dash from Mania. That's an idea I've also wanted Sonic to do. I was a little thrown off when you put the Sonic Eagle as the Back Air, but after you explained why you did, it makes sense. I am still a tiny bit mixed on giving Sonic the Boost and a meter mechanic though, but with the way you made it work, it makes Sonic a lot more fun to play as and less annoying to fight against, so I'm a lot less mixed. The only thing I'm not a fan of is replacing the Spring with Wild Rush as Sonic's Up Special. I get that it's so that Sonic doesn't constantly gimp people with it, but Springs are a very iconic part of Sonic and I personally feel like getting rid of it is rather disappointing. But other than that, this was a really good moveset revamp!

As someone who plays sonic aggressively, this is very good, he needed a rework desperately

Yeah, this was pretty expected for the next Remake It. Sonic is not in a great spot right now moveset wise, and a character as iconic as him should have a more interesting moveset. Overall Thoughts: Encouraging aggression via the boost meter is a good change, reminds me of Guilty Gear’s Tension Gauge. I don’t think giving characters meters is that big of a deal, as long as it makes sense for the mechanic in question. Sonic Eagle being Back Air is kinda weird, but I do see your reasoning. (Later Edit: Though I do think FAir and BAir being switched would work just as well.) The new Final Smash is perfect. I do think we could stand to bring in more of Sonic’s personality, though, as in Smash 4 and Ultimate, that part of him is lacking.

The one thing I would want to change is his forward smash. When I first played Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric, I always thought his basic full-power charged attack in that game would work amazingly. (For those who haven’t seen it, Sonic leans back to one foot while charging, then launches into a multi-hit torpedo-like horizontal spinning kick.)

This is a really neat interpretation of a new moveset for Sonic. If you wanted to incorporate the cyloop into it.

I've been watching you're content for a while now and I gotta say, I LOVE all the smash reworks you're doing. Not only should somone make mods that resemble you're reworked movesets, but its also inspiring me to try out this for myself

"No need to swap it out for an awkwardly placed reference" - Swaps several acceptable moves to reference Sonic Frontiers, throws in a dive down-special that he didn't need

Love seeing these types of videos cause Sonic has so much potential for a moveset

Just for fun, here's my version: Jab: 5 hit punch from Fighters F-tilt: same U-tilt: Up Draft from Battle D-tilt: Slide Dash attack: Air Boost Up Smash: his third hit from Frontiers Forward Smash: same Down Smash: Sonic Flare from Battle Neutral Air: spinning kick, which I believe is called the Top Spin Forward air: Sonic Eagle from Battle Up air: same Back air: same Down air: Stomp from Sonic Unleashed Grab: grapple beam from Sonic Boom, which means yes, I am giving him a tether grab and a z-air All of his throws will stay the same. Alternatively, you could also give him one of his attacks from Frontiers Neutral special: same Side special: same for balancing reasons, but it'll look more like the Light Speed Dash from the Adventure games Up special: Tails Carry from Colors Ultimate Down special: same Final Smash: Team Ultimate from Heroes. He'll fly towards the opponent, and if successful, it'll transition into a cutscene where Super Sonic, Super Tails, and Super Knuckles will attack them

Ngl this was perfect! Good job, good sir! Ever considered doing one for byleth? The godess of time's vessel's kit is fanservice heavy through the relics but it dosent go far enough onto her time based abilities, her whip sword and (possibly) magic. Good video, mate!

If the only change was the side special, I would be more than satisfied

I love your ideas for new Special moves. Frontiers coming out did wonders to what sonic can do.

A great moveset! honestly, I'd have been okay if you made it even more different than his in-game form, but you did a bang up job with this. Can't wait for more Remake It!s

I love most of these! They're exactly what I would've chosen myself. Personally though, I would've kept his up-b as is. Since Sonic moves so fast, and since the original launched him so high, it served as a good move to recover with in case you accidentally overshot a move (such as his original side-b).

I enjoy this new moveset idea, but I disagree with removing the spring for the up special. Springs are one of the most iconic parts of Sonic. To compromise, we could make the move technically function exactly how you described the Wild Rush up special working, but just have Sonic bounce off a spring (or a series of springs in the case of spending a boost charge).

As a Sonic fan I was waiting for this video, gotta say you nailed it🔥

no way the part where you talked about down smash referenced the spawning two flickies thing lmao

Great moveset! I put out a similar pitch fairly recently, but I think I'd def rather have a boost side special than a Sonic Boom side special like I pitched. Kinda wild that everyone who makes one of these vids seems to be pitching air taunts, but I guess that just goes to show how sick they'd be!

now THIS is a video I've been looking forward to

Love these videos

"see the endless possibilities" Me: I see it I see it now. It's all within my reach

If people are looking for a Sonic moveset utilizes a boost side special currently, I definitely recommend the Brawl mod, Brawl Minus.

We all know sonic needed this

I love the majority of this as a long time Sonic fan, but personally would have kept his Up B, it's something more unique to him being the stronger object drop Up Bs. Otherwise, very little to complain about, only other thing I do think is a bit of an issue is his skill oriented invincibility to go through projectiles and catching people dropping on him, to keep it in the same vein and make the meter more worth it, perhaps we keep those invincibility frame on his boost for the same duration, but there isn't a hitbox, he just has a way to force his way in or get himself out in certain situations and still needs to be timed incredibly well to get the value

Down smash could be changed to be more akin to one pulled off during break danceing. Cyclone kick could also use a blue tornado effect, referencing sonic heroes. It's minor, but it could double duty with no changes here outside color. Also, insta shield should gain the ability to block projectiles. Not enough things interact with them despite how prevalent they are, and that's literally part of its functionality. Humming top isn't the reference here, if it's a shorter spin kick your looking for, go for sonic battles windmill. It's literally exactly what your looking for, a shorter version of that spin kick, used in a fighting scenario. Also, I'd replace stomp with bounce, allowing you to jump off enemies to recover, rather than the suicide option off stage stomp is. It could transition into stomp if you hold down when landing, allowing for a mix up, but that's not necessary here. Homing attack is cancelable, allowing it to actually perform as intended. And, it gains a second input, like incineroars command grab, where he kicks the opponent if timed right for more damage, referencing the homing attack kick from lost world, and making it actually useful. It also means no flying off unintentionally, fake outs, and a mix up on where he sends you, and more shield pressure if they time it right, as it dies increased shield damage and spaces you away from a grab with the kick, all based on two simple additions. Also, I'd give side b one pivotal change, have it ignore projectiles, at the cost of slowing down immediately rather than it's normal distance. This further helps it against zoners, who could otherwise easily snuff it out. As for up b, make it cancelable into side b, keeping the damage from up be in that instance, and rewarding you for being willing to spend that much meter, and giving it more angles to work with. Also, let's maybe rework that gauge, as enemies are now rewarded for the same play with that little if he doesn't attack, he loses meter bit, it's antithetical to the goal of making camping not an option, and we shouldn't limit it to just him. Infact, let's do the opposite for the first bar only, meaning if he dies and the opponent tries running to stall, sonic gets rewarded instead of them. Obviously,bit should be slower than hitting the opponent, to stop sonic from thinking this means he should camp, and it's only the first bar, but it's enough to disincentivise camping on both parties.

I like how the first half is me shoe horning in references via animations and correcting one to be slightly more accurate in name, and the the specials happened, and outside stomp, it's all minor changes. Oh, and the insta shield, but I have a problem with smash and projectiles, and I play Mewtwo, so I by all accounts I'm getting the better end of the deal, but I still hate it, so I'll always ask for more interactions with them until most of the roaster has 1 option at least outside universal options like air dodge and shield. If they're going to be this prevalent, everyone should know how to deal with them.

Outside of making the Sonic Eagle the back air, I think this is a pretty damn good moveset. If it were me, I'd just make it the forward air, and keep the current back air, cause while it's not a reference or anything, it's still a fun move to perform that fits Sonic. Also yeah, meters are a cliché, but it makes sense not only because it keeps the boost and wild rush in check, but the boost is always restricted with a meter of some kind in the games anyways, so it works. Dunno if you saw, but Smash Crusade is changing Sonic's FS in their game to the Super Phantom Rush as well, and I think it's a cool idea. It's certainly better than how Super Sonic has been in past Smash games. Here's hoping the next Smash game at least makes some of these changes to Sonic.

Sonics SpinDash needs a Active Hit Box When Charging.

Nintendo should take notes

Man, that boost was the best thing because it made me so frustrated at the idea, but when you explained it I started to love the idea. Very thankful how you put that Frontiers spin on it. The only thing I wild thing that I would add is that when his Final Smash starts, the stage music changes to a random theme that has been used for Super Sonic that plays for either the final Smash or even better if it continues playing after it ends until he loses a stock

This is certainly refreshing. Though I do have one small nitpick: Sonic’s up special and how you incorporated that boost gauge into it. Instead of just holding down the button for one extra surge, how about Sonic just taps the special button again to use one boost arrow for an extra dash. At a full gauge, he could perform a maximum of 4 wild rushes. He could use these for either combos or recovery… But to compensate for potential ladder combos, Sonic can’t get any boost until he touches the ground. And if they over extended a combo by using the last boost arrow in reserve, they go into free fall. And just like with that slide, if Sonic collides with someone’s shield, he stops dead in his tracks. This allows Sonic to quickly get in, land some hits, and dip out safely. But if his opponents can see him coming and react fast enough, they should be able to put the hedgehog on ice.

Only tweak I'd make is to Wild Rush. I'd have it work kind of like Pikachu's Quick Attack where you pick which direction you move after each subsequent dash and you could get ONE extra dash per boost bar segment (assuming it was three segments like the illustration). Depending on balance needs, you could have it require a segment to make any attack dash so that you're limited to three dashes max instead of four but I think four would be fine if they're short.

Wow! A moveset that actually reworks Sonic to make him feel more balanced but also to make him feel like his games more. I think the moveset ideas here are actually really great, and I especially agree with the Final Smash being based on Super Phantom Rush from Sonic Frontiers. Getting rid of Super Sonic for his Final Smash doesn't make sense, so having Super Sonic being based on Sonic Frontiers with a more cutscene oriented Final Smash is definitely a much welcome change. I also like how you incorporated moves from Frontiers, and also included the boost mechanic but had it deal no damage. I know Sonic fans are tired of the boost mechanic, but I think it would work well as a run away tool and a recovery tool. I also love how you incorporated the Drop Dash from Sonic Mania into Sonic's reworked Down Special (Which by the way, the way you reworked it makes perfect sense since his current side and down are basically the same thing). The Drop Dash, to me, can make for some interesting plays and could work pretty well. Regardless, amazing moveset. Would love to see the Smash team for a potential future game to take some of these ideas into a reworked moveset. Hopefully the guys at Sonic Team also see this and takes notes, and gives their input if they were to be contacted again.

this sounds FANTASTIC!

Finally a fitting moveset for the blue blur, I always felt like his Ultimate moveset was really lacking and didn't feel as Sonic-like as it should've, so if this was his official moveset it would be way better as it keeps the Sonic players constantly attacking while also being able to escape fast enough if they get into a sticky situation, and it makes it all the harder to camp with him wich makes him less toxic.

I love this interpretation of Sonic, this feels more of an homage of Sonic's entire history compared to the 90% classic spinoff + clone moves of the official moveset. I had something similar to a boost meter in my overhaul proposal, however the purpose was to increase his overall mobility and damage when it was filled (Sonic's base speed was nerfed to ~fox level to compensate). I also changed his up special to be the Sonic Cyclone, another Adventure era move that won't send Sonic as far as his spring, but will send anyone upwards for an aerial combo. Good work!

This is amazing!!! Even better than my own which I may have to revamp again! I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone add the tricks into the moveset at all! It works quite well. Oh by tricks I mean the ones in the modern games nowadays like Generations and all as they’re ones I know well. Especially generations since it’s my personal favourite with Frontiers dangerously close due to it’s soundtrack

THANK YOU for my prediction on the Wild Rush

9:00 I see what you did there. This is probably the best Sonic rework I've seen. It actually tries to fix Sonic's biggest flaw: his playstyle. Giving Sonic more agency with this speed will make him a lot more fun to watch and play. Anything to not make him obnoxiously evasive.

you did pretty good

To be fair, Sonic’s original tilt attacks are super useful against the likes of, say, Mario

it"s been almost a year since this came out and I love the new move set for sonic. but i have a few ideas. Most of his attacks are fine but for his sonic eagle, he sends anyone behind him upwards and the one in front of him downwards if you get the spike sweet spot. For his down smash, he should have the breakdance down smash he used in project m. As for his specials, you can really abuse the boost mechanic for them. Homing attack gains more power and reaches further depending on how long you hold down the b button. And if you expend all 3 boost bars, sonic gains a light blue aura and homing attacks multiple different enemies or just one multiple times. For the boost special itself, the more you hold the b button, the longer the move lasts, and you zoom past or completely move through any projectiles and enemies. and if you hit a wall, sonic runs up the wall or bounces off it and quickly turns around. Finally for his spin dash, if you hold down the b button, you expend the boost gauge for further distance, more power, more hits like his old down special, and if you use all 3 bars, sonic gains super armor for most of the move until he stops moving like his new wild rush. But for the downsides, sonic's charged attacks have more end lag, more startup, and can be interrupted at the start. my final idea is for the taunts. Using more fluidity depending on the voice actor, the ability to change the voice lines through settings or something new, like they can use Ryan Drummond, Jason Griffith (My favorite personally), or Roger Smith's old voice lines or smash makes new ones entirely, i'd prefer to stick to Jason Griffith but i"ll take what i can get.

Just a couple of details that could help. Sonic entering the battle should be him exciting cyber space. One of Sonic’s victory animations should be the chaos emeralds dance, and a new idle animation when injured could be his corrupted animation from frontiers. I also thing that sonic should start with a single boost bar at the beginning of the round, that would allow one to begin combos a lot easier. You know I must have been playing Sonic wrong in smash bros, I’ve always been very aggressive and usually start the battle with a spin dash jump and homing attack combo.

You earned my subscription. Thank you.

Cool moveset. I'd personally keep his jab and side-tilt the same since the examples you gave are kind of hard for me to imagine, but everything else is really good. For the longest time, I thought Sonic's boost would work like Palutena's Super Speed custom side special from Smash 4, but the way you handled the boost makes it a lot more dynamic. It's like a mix of the Frontiers boost and the version from Sonic Unleashed on Wii.

The way you reworked sonic's move-set makes it seem like if he were to be added as dlc. Only because of how many gimmicks you added, like the boost gage for example. I also think that these changes would have made sonic more fun to play, and that's coming from a sonic main.

Thank you

11:54 For D-throw i think you can use the Quick Cyloop from Frontiers. The cyloop itself will deal damage and will spawn a boost pad (like some chests on Chaos / Ouranos Island) that launches the opponent forward at a low angle to tech chases, exactly like his actual d-throw but with a reference to his recent game (Maybe the boost pad can throw opponents that are near enough but only if they are grounded)

In terms of costume I think Sonic could definitely use more references from his games and have more themed swaps like Link, Pikachu, and Link instead of just tinting his fur and changing his shoe color. P1: original P2: SA2 Soap Shoes with flame ring and bounce bracelet P3: Sonic Riders glasses and boots P4: Werehog pallet with grey blue gloves and dark red shoes with grey strap and socks. P5: original Crystal ring pallet (no changes) P6: Silver pallet with gold bands on gloves and boots P7: a Master Emerald pallet similar to Crystal Rings with glow effect (no fur tint change) P8: probably impossible, but a Metal Sonic pallet swap similar to Olimar and Alph/ Ridley and Meta Ridley being one character roster.

This actually sounds really good

A really cool change to sonic’s move set. I think one thing that would be cool is if you’re boosting on the ground you can use some unique smash attacks that have either high knock back or damage, but missing the attack leaves sonic open to a counter attack so timing a boost attack is important

For his costumes he could have accessories from others games with a slightly different fur color (Like some playable Pokemons that have hat accessories and a slightly different color). The iron glove from The Black Knight A flame and ring from Seven Rings Even full fur color changes as references to his transformations like Darkspine Sonic, Werehog Sonic and Dark Sonic (I think thats already in game but it can be darker).

the final smash concept sounds amazing although I would personally add the giant sword he uses in the Knight titan fight too

The final smash idea does sound good, but how I would’ve done it would be Sonic transforms into Super Sonic, then dashes straight into the opponents and anyone hit will be launched into a cinematic cutscene where the opponent are eaten by the first titan in Sonic Frontiers. Then Super Sonic will beat the ever loving crap out of the titan and then delivers the final blow to the titan by ramming straight through the core, making the titan explode with the opponents inside it and after the explosion launching the opponent away when the cinematic ends.

@@leohernandez8751Personally, I’d just use Sonic’s Grand Slam from during the Final Boss of the Final Horizon which is also something he’d done before in the IDW comics. It’s flashy, it hurts, and it wastes zero time.

This was the best remake ever. I hope that someone atleast makes a mod with this moveset.

Aerial taunts would be pretty cool. I also think it'd be neat to incorporate directional dash attacks to show his versatility at high speed, since he has both his sliding dash and his sliding kick from Sonic '06. For his up dash attack, it could just cancel into up tilt to avoid upward attack redundancy. Finally, I think the final hit for his Final Smash should be a supercharged homing attack; and as an aesthetic flare, hits so hard it scatters the Chaos Emeralds and immediately reverts Super Sonic back to base form. It'd also be neat if he could act out of it, potentially landing a homing attack to finish off an opponent that wasn't quite K.O.'d from his Final Smash.

when he said "endless possibities" I felt that

-honestly the most impressive part of this Moveset is not that is great & i need it by Brawl, but that it actually uses Modern's moves rather than go hard on the Classic references only -that being said, for Up Smash i would like to see Sonic using all 3 Elemental Shields: Start the Jump with Electric, then Dash with Fire, then end with the Bubble Stomp-bounce - that Boost mechanic is how i wish it worked in the main games tbh - Sonic's main gimmick should be Taunt combo, also the up-taunt should be the actual SA1 pose rather than the Sonic X's arm crossed one

Momentum mechanics are nifty and ought to belong on every Smash moveset.

1:00 rare footage of sonic training for smash bros by moving so fast he begins sparing with himself

Need this!

In my opinion this is the most well thought out revamp out there, bravo! Laser focusing him on not camping and instead being rushdown/bait and punish is the right call, and I love the idea of giving him a meter that benefits his approach more than anything, but ISN'T a bullshit comeback/snowball mechanic. Also midair taunts is a baller idea, that would be so hype

I would imagine Boost would work like Banjo’s Wonder Wing

Two thing that the spindash need: An active hitbox while charging (idk) and that momentum mechanic you mentioned (me).
