Sonic vs Mario

[Deepflame]

I'm sorry, but no. The tanooki suit does not protect him from harm, it just makes the baddies think that he's a statue, so they ignore him. Not once have I seen them attack him while he's a statue and get knocked flat on their backs, then just walk past. If he turned to stone, Sonic would simply spin dash through him. He can hold whatever he wants with him, but nothing he has is going to surpass with the chaos emeralds do for Sonic. And those hammers would be ineffective, super or no.

The Tanooki suit actually does protect him from harm (kinda ). I don't have my Allstars manual in english, but translated it says sumthin' like: "Mario cannot be harmed while he is in statue form" (though I realize this may vary.) The baddies ignores Mario since they understand attacking him would do nuthin :p
Yeh yeh, I'm stretching it a bit. But on the other hand you can stand right in front of a cannon ball (The big ones. The gun is mounted on an immovable tower, so it doesn't matter if they belive him to be a statue or not) without any effect. Powerful as he is, I do not belive Sonic could compete with one of those (opinion.)
