After looking this up, TIL that Knuckles is an echidna. I had no idea!

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 29 points 8 months ago

Yeah, that's probably why they called him "Knuckles the Echidna."

[-] Dave@lemmy.nz 8 points 8 months ago

I don't remember ever playing any of the early games, but I can only ever remember him being referred to as "Knuckles", as in "Sonic and Knuckles". I guess I was just a little too far removed from the game to ever follow the characters.

It said it in the title screen of the games.

[-] Dave@lemmy.nz 9 points 8 months ago

Haha wow. It just must have never registered into my long term memory.

Interesting fact: Echidnas, like platypus, have no stomach.
