Brief History:
Metal Knuckles was originally created by Dr. Eggman to participate in the World Grand Prix, defeating whomever made it to the Reactive Factory, which Eggman had successfully lobbied to get as a course on the Prix. When Sonic was the one to make it to the Reactive Factory, Metal Knuckles engaged him in a race as Metal Sonic had done years prior on the Little Planet, but with inferior speeds to Metal Sonic the android doppelganger was easily defeated. An annoyed Eggman shut Metal Knuckles down, storing it away in one of his hundreds of bases to upgrade and use one distant day in the future.
Attacks
Rolling Spin: Once Metal Knuckles starts running, it can curl down and roll into a battle, moving forward at an impressive speed. This attack is primarily meant for breaking barriers or destroying grounded enemies.
Abilities
Running: Though Metal Knuckles is not nearly as fast as Metal Sonic, it easily surpasses it's organic counterpart in the running department.
Likes: Anything that allows it to one-up Metal Sonic
Dislikes: Metal Sonic, Knuckles the Echidna
Personality: Metal Knuckles' AI was based off the Metal Sonic design, and it shows. Metal Knuckles, like Metal Sonic, is ruthless, relentless, and completely amoral. It believes that robots are functionally superior to humans, and that their human enemies simply have no logical chance of victory. While Metal Knuckles sees it's organic counterpart as a nuisance that must be destroyed, it considers it's true enemy to be Metal Sonic. Metal Knuckles’ driving ambition is to supplant Metal Sonic as Eggman’s second in command, and to that end he’s willing to do anything, including undermine the war effort for it's own gain.
Hardware Statistics:
Main Central Processing Unit: LIPS A.I. Eggman Chip; the head processor contains 3 maximum output links. The internal, FAGE-type CPU contains a system that is capable of executing mathematical logical enactment, and an analog neuro-connection between all components enabling the unit to react quickly to any danger.
Spin Attack: Metal Knuckles can emulate Knuckles' famous spinning jump attack, however its version does far more damage than Knuckles' thanks to his jagged dreadlocks and claws. It also jumps much higher than Knuckles.
Spin Dash: Like Knuckles, Metal Knuckles can perform the Spin Dash.. Naturally, however, its version his stronger and more powerful.
Drill Claw: While airborne, Metal Knuckles can dash downward, digging into the ground. This move is usually used to find items or to secure an escape route.
Spiral Uppercut: Metal Knuckles rockets straight up into the air fist first. This move is used to hit aerial opponents or occasionaly as a defense maneuver, thanks to Metal Knuckles' jagged dreadlocks.
Punch Attack: Metal Knuckles performs a one-two punch combo, then rears back and charges forward with a third dash punch. This attack can usually take out anyone in it's path.
Hovering: While drifting down from a glide, Metal Knuckles can briefly hover downwards, further increasing the range and exploration capability of the machine.
Gliding: By simply spreading its arms, Metal Knuckles' unique engine enables it to glide across the air at heights and speeds that surpass Knuckles' gliding ability.
Climbing: Using it's jagged claws, Metal Knuckles can scale practically any surface, including surfaces its organic counterpart would be unable to.
Digging: Metal Knuckles can climb and dig even more proficiently than it's organic counterpart, thanks to it's enormous jagged claws.
Swimming: Metal Knuckles' hardware and frame are both waterproof, and the unit has been upgraded with the ability to swim through water. Metal Knuckles is one of the few Eggman creations with this ability, and the only one of the Four Generals who can swim.
Strength: Metal Knuckles' entire design was engineered to emulate its organic counterpart's brute strength and, furthermore, to even surpass it. Metal Knuckles does not fail in that regard.
Waterproofed: Metal Knuckles has been constructed to be waterproof. However, if it is damaged and it's inner workings are exposed when it falls into a body of water, all bets are off.
Relatives: Doctor Eggman (creator),Knuckles the Echidna (organic template)
