Knuckles vs Pikachu: who would win in a fist fight?
Pick the winner and how they win (TKO, DQ or decision), then see how everyone else called it.
Knuckles
“The Echidna” · Sega · 1994 · 3′7″ (110 cm), 88 lb (40 kg)
Guardian of the Master Emerald and the Sonic character built for punching. His spiked fists smash through rock.
Pikachu
“The Mouse Pokémon” · Pokémon · 1996 · 1′4″ (40 cm), 13 lb (6 kg)
Electric-type Pokémon and the face of the franchise. Stores electricity in its red cheeks and releases it as lightning. Fighting well below any recognised weight class.
The crowd
Nobody has called this one yet.
The AI’s verdict (spoiler)
Knuckles by TKO. Quick Attack makes Pikachu a blur for a round, but Knuckles, 34 kg heavier, simply stands guard like it's his day job. In round two one punch finds the target, and Ash Ketchum throws in the towel to stop the fight.
Fair fight? Make Knuckles, the Sonic character built for punching, fight with one hand tied behind his back, so Pikachu's Quick Attack gets a real chance to score points.
