Why Tikal the Echidna is the GREATEST Female Sonic Character

- Sonic Adventure in my opinion has the greatest story ever told in a 3D Sonic game. And part of that has to do with one of its newly introduced characters, Tikal the Echidna. Who has become quite underrated in recent years despite her long history in the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise.

I would love if instead of Tikal and Chaos instead of leaving after the end of Sonic Adventure, that they instead reside on Angel Island somewhere and Chaos went back to protecting the Master Emerald. This time however it would be alongside Knuckles and that's why in later games, like Sonic Heroes and further, Knuckles can leave to help Sonic and friends save the world. He wouldn't have to worry about the Master Emerald being stolen or damaged because Chaos would be there protecting it if he was needed elsewhere. As for Tikal, maybe she could teach Knuckles new abilities using the Master Emerald's power or about the past of the Knuckles Clan. Just some food for thought.
I was thinking something very similar, but maybe Tikal’s spirit guards the emerald or something, but Chaos makes more sense.
I do think Tikal could come back to give Knuckles guidance since he’s so disconnected from his ancestral culture and we don’t know a lot about his past.
@@Granditamias, I hope we get to see that happening in the games following up Sonic Frontiers!
Sega needs to bring Tikal back in the Sonic Franchise that she seriously deserves better
But she's dead
Because of Ken Penders!
Shit, don’t tell me the mandates are against her too.
@@labronthesuperninjayasin2203 I know she is. I’m just saying Sega should bring Tikal back in more Sonic Video Games even Chaos that they deserve to have another chance to be & do great again like other Sonic Characters
@@ChristianJosephOfficialYT Who exactly is Ken Penders you even talking about?
I really miss Tikal the Echidna.
Same. She's my third favourite sonic character behind knuckles and whisper
I love Tikal with all my heart! Totally the best female Sonic character! She really deserves to be in more games.
Hopefully they bring Tikal into Knuckles' solo series coming up!
Ngl Tikal is prolly the best female character, imho.
Tikal and Blaze are best girls
Tikal has always been one of my favorite characters and I'm glad someone's finally made a vid on her. Good shit!
In Sonic Adventure DX, when you explore the ancient Knuckles' tribal home, and interact with some of the clan's npcs, one of them refers to Pachacamac as his "Father"(at least in the English version as far as I can tell), which implies that Tikal had a Brother, and if her brother was also one of the few survivers of the great disaster caused by Chaos, then it's possible that Knuckles may be a direct descendant of Tikal's Brother, which would mean that Tikal is Knuckles Great(times several dozen) Grand-Aunt, meaning he is her Nephew, at least theoretically.
Which character were you playing as when you found that out?
You got a video link or something?
Edit: I've looked up multiple gameplay videos and didn't see anything like that. If it's even true he probably meant as the community's "father", not biological father.
If Tikal did have any siblings you'd think they would have a much bigger role.
No crap Tikal need more recognition. Sega better step up there A game if they want the show sonic prime to be a success.
Tikal is so underrated.
I've always loved Tikal, such a delicate and wonderful character. She deserved more recognition and perhaps we will see her in the Knuckles Paramount series that could dive into the Echidnas' ancient history? Tikal + Knuckles could be siblings.
Finally. Another Tikal lover. I thought we were a rare specimen. Also, I don't really see it being that infeasible for Sega to bring her back as they ended up doing the same with Shadow. The problem is I don't think Sega sees her as marketable enough.
My favs are Cream, Amy and Tikal.
I miss Tikal she was a very cold and nice character
I also I love Tikal The Echidna 🧡🧡🧡 😍😍😍 and 👸🏻👸🏻👸🏻
I love Tikal so much, she's my favorite character along with Cream. Thank you for making this video! 😊
Just seeing the title made me smile, personally I'm more of a fan of Blaze, but glad to know that people know how much a amazing character Tikal is
It's sad that she isn't seen that much, her design already makes her stand out in a great way! Hopefully one day there will be another chance where she could be brought back for something. I'm curious to see if they'll reference Tikal in the next sonic movie, considering how the echidna family story is brought up a lot in the second movie.
I hope so. But since Shadow’s gonna be important to the third movie’s plot, I don’t think it’s likely. Maybe the Knuckles series on Paramount+ though.
@@Granditamias Yeah, that ran in my mind aswell, but the Knuckles series has the potential!
Excellent video man! So much stuff I learned from this video about Tikal! So interesting how far her origin really goes back
Yeah. I actually learned about Princess Alucion while I was writing the script for this video. I had actually seen some fan artwork of her before, and honestly she’s so obscure that you’d be forgiven for thinking she was an OC or just Tikal in a different outfit like I did.
Amazing video! Lot of interesting stuff from the comics that I didnt know. I always loved Tikal, she is such a great character. Rouge is my favorite female but Tikal is probably Top 3. Some SA1 modder has expressed interest in adding a story for Tikal (and Eggman), with their own levels and cutscenes. I hope it becomes a reality someday!
at least they tried to do more with her in the reboot of Archie. it wasn't much, but it was nevertheless a welcome return from the character
This is way better than Guptil89's infamous Top 10 Hottest Female Sonic Characters. Lol
Fantastic video Tikal has always been one of my favorite characters So thank you for this video💖
😢 I wish she was added to all mario and 😂olympic games and to other sonic games she was my favorite sega character
Thanks to you explanation I joy Tikal even more now
Thx for this she actually one my favourite characters and yes would love to see sega find a way bring her back and be cool if she released to knuckles then if so could bring her back to give knuckles a faimy base line or something or just fellow knuckles cline
I think she’s really cool
We need tikal
Sega really forgot about this icon. Maybe it's just hyping up her return possibly??
Why wasn’t Tikal on Sonic Forces despite Chaos’ appearance?
Because Chaos in that game was just an illusion by Infinite. The real Chaos hasn’t been seen in the games in any significant story capacity since the end of SA1. Same goes for Tikal.
Love Tikal I just put a Zelda Skin mod of her in Smash Ultimate
In my opinion she should be a guide for knuckles (whilst light gaia*chip* being sonic's)
All this time I've been pronouncing her father's name as "pack-hack-a-mack".
Anyway, Tikal was a huge inspiration to me as a little girl, and I would always try to act and speak like she did.
Bringing her back would be a neat thing… assuming they don’t pull the same boss babe bs they pulled with Amy lately.
SEGA were not only influenced by Super Mario 64 for the hub worlds as well as to a lesser extent the main gameplay, they were just as much, if not moreso influenced by Megaman X4 for the more serious story and multiple character storylines/perspectives.
Not really
The influence of Megaman X4 and Ocarina of Time on SA1 is pretty clear from Tikal. You forgot to mention that. That doesn’t even begin to cover the Chinese and Buddhist mythology influences she is partially based on.
Must protect
Khalil the echidna
She great but I wouldn't call her the greatest female sonic characters
I respect that. I just made that the video title to be clickbaity.
@@dartheverstar9564 wtf?
To me she is & seem to be such a Powerful Female Character who is so very underrated that also deserves better in my honest opinion. I miss Tikal the Echidna though 🥺😭😔💔💔💔
I think blaze is the best female Sonic character followed by Tikal.
8:06 the disrespect... who writes this stuff?
which movie is the scene from at 13:56 ?
It’s from Sonic the Hedgehog (2020)
She show you dawey
I’m actually officially done with SEGA and their stupid mandates I’m also done with Sonic the Hedgehog as a whole I’m sorry but I’m no longer a Sonic the Hedgehog fan not anymore
So then why did you comment on this video?
Nah I disagree. Amy is much better but Tikal is a close second
