Bowser vs the Sonic the Hedgehog. Hopefully...

Countering SonicSonic's joking attitude is not the only reason I provide. I have stated that Sonic's cockiness and overconfidence [2] will mean Sonic won't attack Bowser. As the source states, Sonic won't be willing to use all of his power. Thus, Sonic won't attack Bowser until Bowser gets close to Sonic, as Sonic will consider Bowser a weak enemy.My opponent says that Sonic can rip through battleships when traveling close to 768 mph. However, when Sonic has no back up speed, I fail to see how this would apply. Now, let us consider what happens in a close-up fight. I doubt Sonic will run away due to his cockiness. The only thing Sonic can do is use some quick kicks and other reflexive attacks. Bowser might be stupid, but even he will raise his arms up if he realizes he is being attacked. Sonic will be momentarily dazed in the air since he lacks his foothold, and Bowser, now enraged, will use his arms to grab Sonic and pin him down on the floor. My opponent has not challenged the fact that Sonic will be unable to escape due to Bowser's raw strength. Now, Bowser has Sonic pinned to the ground. Bowser has many oppurtunities, which I will further explain.------ If Sonic does in fact attack Bowser first, we move into the below arguments. 1) Straightforward Attack My opponent is correct. However, Bowser can be as agile as Mario, therefore, I do not see how this rebuttal can work. Looking at my opponent's video, Bowser does take time to use the lightning. However, I see Bowsersummoning a battleship, which would obviously take more time. If Bowser did not summon the battleship, we can cut out 1:00 to 1:07 from the time it takes. Thus, it would probably take four to six seconds total for Bowser to use his lightning attack. Of course, this won't be fast enough to counter Sonic's 1-2 second straightforward attack, so I will show how teleportation can be used instead. Looking at teleportation, my opponent is definitely correct. When Sonic charges in at Bowser, Bowser can simply teleport towards the direction Sonic is coming at. Bowser will pass right through Sonic. If Sonic hopes to hit Bowser, he'll have to make a sharp u-turn, cutting some of his speed. Since Bowser moves slowly in the teleportation, Sonic will have to skid, cutting even more of his speed. Sonic now does not have so much speed to back up his attack, giving Bowser time to react with hitting Sonic with lightning, or protecting himself against Sonic's weakened attacks. In addition, now that Sonic won't be able to rip Bowser apart, Bowser can use his shell, which if Sonic tries to punch will result in bleeding his arms, or if Sonic tries to kick, he will damage his shoes and the gems inside of them, which I will refer back to later.2)-5) Sonic's attacks will not work, looking at the above statements. 6) Sonic Drift My opponent has countered my blue flame argument, so I will use the teleportation and lightning arguments I used in the last round. Sonic Drift will take longer for Sonic to execute, because it involves Sonic turning and using his momentum against Sonic. Drifting will slightly slow down Sonic, causing the move to take about four-to-fight seconds. Bowser can teleport in the direction Sonic comes in, which I have shown is effective against Sonic's speed in the 1st rebuttal. Bowser will take about four to five seconds for his lightning attack, as shown above. Bowser does not have to aim at Sonic. He can aim near himself. Though Sonic has some degree of lightning resistance, the rocks that will fly around from the lightning strike will prevent him from successfully executing the Sonic Drift attack. 7) Pure Speed and Intense ReflexesMy opponent states it will take six seconds to initiate the light speed attack. As I showed, lightning from Bowser will take about 4-5 seconds. Bowser does not have to aim this lightning straight at Sonic. Though Bowser is indeed dumb, I will show how Bowser's counter will still work. As Sonic runs away, Bowser will get angry, and use his already summoned lightning from the above arguments to attack Sonic. This will take Bowser about 1-2 seconds. Of course, Bowser will miss, but when Sonic comes back at light speed, the flying rocks from the lightning strike will cause trouble for Sonic. He will be forced to slightly dodge or use his quills to smash through the rocks. Because of this, Sonic will lose some of his speed. Bowser can then proceed to teleport from a slowed attack, and as shown above, Sonic will have to make a sharp u-turn and cut more of his speed if he wishes to get Bowser with this move. Of course, my opponent then says that Sonic will say "Oh, no. Bowser is too powerful. I'm so scared." and run away. However, Bowser will still get angry, since Bowser likes to finish off his opponents rather than let them live, due to his lack of empathy [1]. Con's Case:1) You were hitting me this whole time? Oh, I didn't notice!As promised, I will show how Bowser can then defeat Sonic. Shown above, Bowser will have Sonic pinned to the ground, with Sonic powerless to escape. His quills will be useless since Sonic is facing up towards Bowser. I have shown two different ways Bowser can opt to finish Sonic in previous rounds: Raw strength through sharp objects and horrid fire. Sonic may be resistant to damage and have healing abilities, but that by no way means Bowser can't amputate Sonic. Bowser can dig his sharp claws into Sonic's neck. Sonic can't heal as fast as Bowser pries, eventually leading to Sonic's downfall. Even if Sonic can endure heavy blows, he can't endure having his neck pried at. Bowser will have decapitated Sonic's head, leaving Sonic dead. My opponent showed how using another spiked alternative, the spikes on Bowser's back won't work, so I give that to Pro. Now I will move on to fire.Con says that Sonic is resistant to fire because he does not catch from fire at lightspeed. However, I believe this is only shows that Sonic is resistant to catching on fire that comes from friction. However, this does not prove a resistance to real fire, not the fire that can come from friction. Additionally, my opponent says Sonic does not catch on fire, which means there is no showing of actual resistance to fire when Sonic is burning. So, this means Sonic can in fact catch on fire. Now, as Bowser pries through his neck and Bowser uses very strong Blue flames on Sonic's head, he will be unconscious from having his neck partially destroyed: this means Sonic really cannot vibrate his molecules as a defense, giving Bowser the win here. 2) Pfft, I've faced people way more powerful than you! I do believe that Con is missing the point of my argument here. A win against Emerl does not guarantee a win against Bowser; this argument does not uphold the BOP. Nonetheless, since Pro asks me to show how Bowser is as strong as Emerl, I will do so for him.3) Time to attack!My opponent has now showed me how fast these shockwaves are. Bowser does not have to dodge, and teleportation can be the alternative. Bowser can teleport towards the shockwave's direction. Sonic will likely charge in after Bowser does this. However, Sonic will be somewhat close to Bowser. If he wasn't, Bowser would have had more time to react to the shockwave. Nonetheless, Sonic won't have so much speed to help him, allowing Bowser to counter with his shell. If Sonic kicks, he will damage his shoes, breaking the gems inside him. 1) + 2) My opponent has rebutted these arguments, and I can't do anything to counter here. 5) Sonic's shoes Sonic's shoes can help, but Bowser has a way to deal with them. As showed above, Sonic will damage his shoes by kicking Bowser, breaking these gems. If Bowser has pinned down Sonic and the shoes are not broken, Bowser can use his arms to prevent Sonic from escaping, take off the shoes, and then finish Sonic off. Sorry for the lack of sources: I felt they weren't so necessary in the last round. Thanks for a great debate, PeacefulChaos.1. http://www.mariowiki.com...2. http://sonic.wikia.com...
