*Sonic is unable to [[swim]] in his own series, due to Yuji Naka (one of his creators) mistakenly believing that hedgehogs in real life cannot. Sonic typically sinks to the bottom when in water; in ''Sonic Colors'', he can jump indefinitely but not properly "swim", and swimming events in ''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games'' show him using water wings to stay afloat. This is often, though inconsistently, depicted as Sonic having some form of thalassophobia. Because swimming is a universal game mechanic in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, Sonic is able to swim. However, to reflect his adverse mobility in water in his home series, his very frantic swimming style makes him among the slowest swimmers in the series. In ''Ultimate'', this trait is further accentuated: Sonic's swimming animation is closer to his drowning animation, and he receives damage while swimming. | *Sonic is unable to [[swim]] in his own series, due to Yuji Naka (one of his creators) mistakenly believing that hedgehogs in real life cannot.
