Amy Rose/Relationships

These are the relationships of Amy Rose from the *Sonic the Hedgehog* series.

 *Do you know how hard it is to find a guy who never stops running? Although that's part of your charm, I suppose.*

— Amy Rose, *Sonic Colors* (Nintendo DS)
Sonic the Hedgehog is one of Amy's best friends. During the Little Planet incident, she went to Little Planet after having a tarot card reading that predicted a "destined" encounter with him. Upon seeing Sonic for the first time in Palmtree Panic, she fell in love with him instantly, even attempting to hug him in Palmtree Panic, and following him to Collision Chaos, despite Sonic not sharing the same feelings for her. However, when Amy was kidnapped by Metal Sonic, Sonic attempted to rescue her, eventually doing so, after which Amy hugged him as thanks.

As aforementioned, the original concept for Amy was for her to be Sonic's love interest all along, but Yuji Naka refused, believing it to go against Sonic's character as a "free spirit".

Amy looks up to Sonic and identifies herself as Sonic's "self-proclaimed girlfriend" despite Sonic appearing annoyed by her affections. During the Chaos incident, bored of her mundane city life, Amy resolved to become more independent to win over Sonic's heart and be a part of his adventures by the end of her tale, feeling she was something of a burden to him due to needing to be rescued time and time again. By the end of it, Amy even proclaimed she will be a greater hero than him one day and will get him to respect her. Even though he seems nervous and occasionally overwhelmed by her advances, Sonic at least considers Amy a good friend and worthy comrade and is always there to help her out should the need arise. Sonic's emotional neglect, for the most part, does not seem to hurt or deter Amy, as she believes he is merely hiding his feelings behind a facade, which has occasionally been implied to be the case.

During the Space Colony ARK incident, Amy goes to Prison Island on her own to free him. However, after he ran away upon being liberated, she commented on how he can be a "brat" sometimes in response to him leaving her behind. During the same incident, she also defended Sonic and believed him to be innocent. While Amy loves Sonic, she has shown on more than one occasion that she is not afraid to disagree with him if he does something she does not approve of. For example, during the Chaos incident, she stopped him from destroying Gamma, telling him that Gamma was her friend and he is not evil.

As of the Neo Metal Sonic incident, Amy had become significantly more aggressive and short-sighted about her infatuation and desire to prove herself to Sonic, win his heart, and prove herself as a hero. She challenged him, believing him to have kidnapped Froggy and Chocola, and fought against him to impress him. Her hard-headedness and stubbornness proved to be her downfall however, not listening to Sonic when he said that he did not know what she was talking about, leading to him pretending to be defeated so he can run away. She later got furious when she realized that Neo Metal Sonic was responsible for framing him, blaming him for the misunderstanding between her and Sonic earlier in the adventure and cheering for Sonic to beat him.

During the Emerl incident, Amy becomes enamored with "boxercise" as part of her arduous physical training to impress Sonic with her adamant dedication, which mildly worked but also worried him. At one point, she asked Tails about Emerl, to which the fox cub explained that Emerl is like a child to Sonic. Amy took this literally and thought that Sonic wanted her to be Emerl's mother. Amy then took Emerl away and told him to call her his mother, thus making Emerl believe that Amy was actually his mother figure. Throughout the same incident, she also tried hard to protect Emerl after losing him to Rouge. In the end, Amy tried to get Sonic to propose to her, but he promptly shivered at the thought and bailed.

During the Solaris incident, Amy decided to help Silver, unaware that he was tricked into believing that he had to kill Sonic to save his future. Upon finding out about this, she immediately turned on him, saying that she refused to believe Sonic would ever cause the destruction of the world. After discovering that Sonic was killed, she kneeled down and cried into her hands. She later shed a tear when Sonic was brought back to life.

During Dodon Pa's Grand Prix, Amy rarely showed any romantic affection for him. Sonic joins her in a picnic with Big and Omochao.

Early on during the War to Take Back the Planet, Amy showed great concern about Sonic and missed him, having stated that she had recurring dreams where Sonic was still with them, which made her hold out hope that he might still be alive. When Rouge revealed to them that Eggman merely took Sonic captive and was keeping him onboard the Death Egg, she was shown to be highly relieved expressing contentment at her intuitions being true. She was later shown to be the happiest of all Resistance members (alongside Knuckles and later Tails) when she heard Sonic's voice on Knuckles' communicator while contacting the Avatar.

### Cream the Rabbit

 File:Amy Cream Cheese SA3.png
In earlier appearances, Cream the Rabbit and Amy shared a sister-like relationship, comparable to Sonic and Tails' brother-like friendship. This fact is strengthened by *Sonic Advance 3*, as when they are paired together, they are given the title "Team Jubilee" and serve as a female counterpart to Sonic and Tails' "Unbreakable Bond." When Amy learns Cream's missing Chao Chocola is supposedly in the possession of Sonic the Hedgehog according to her clue, she insists on helping her find him and reunite him with his brother Cheese. Amy supports and encourages Cream when the latter gets scared and loses her resolve, helping her to continue their quest and to not lose hope. When Team Rose successfully gets Chocola back, her Chao cheer Amy's name in appreciation. Cream alerts Amy that Sonic is nearby, with Amy giving chase quickly afterward. The two are portrayed as best friends and also seem to frequent together almost completely throughout *Sonic Battle*, except when Emerl drags one of them away. Amy is also seen searching for Cream within the Cryptic Castle in *Shadow the Hedgehog*, which further suggests how much she cares for her.

Cream will sometimes make innocent comments poking fun or putting into question Amy's fixation with Sonic. In Sonic Heroes. this gets Amy to glare at her and *Sonic Rush*, she pulls out her hammer, Cream saying "Not again!" in reaction. In some games, Cream is Amy's equivalent of Tails to Sonic, often helping Amy out or trying to get her out of bad situations like Amy's compulsion to push herself too far especially when aroused to anger.

### Big the Cat

Big the Cat acts as an older brother figure to Amy and is most likely her other best friend. They form Team Rose and fight together during the Neo Metal Sonic incident. Amy regularly encourages Big and helps lifts his spirits when he loses hope in finding Froggy. As a result, Big develops a very protective disposition toward her and Cream, saying to himself he needs to toughen up in order to protect them. He shows hostility towards Team Chaotix because he believes them to be bullying her and Cream.

### Miles "Tails" Prower

 File:SA2 Tailamy.PNG
For the most part, Amy and Tails have a good friendship, although he is aware of Amy's love for Sonic. Due to this, in games like *Sonic Battle* and *Sonic Free Riders*, Tails has tried to help Sonic get away from Amy.

The two are good enough friends for Amy to stand up for Tails as seen in *Sonic Riders* when Amy is defensive of Tails when Wave made fun of him.

### Knuckles the Echidna

Amy's and Knuckles the Echidna butt heads quite often or express general frustration with one another, but still overall seem to have good friendly report with one another.

In *Sonic Advance*, Amy is exasperated and mocks the idea of Knuckles being tricked again by Eggman when encountering the disguised Mecha Knuckles.

In *Sonic Heroes* when playing as Team Sonic; at the beginning of the fight against Team Rose, Knuckles will taunt Sonic about Amy saying, "*Are you playing with that girl's heart again, Sonic?*"

In *Sonic Rush*, Amy calls him a "dimwit" before stopping Knuckles from starting a fight with Blaze.

In *Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity*, Amy budges in at the end of Knuckles' sentence, annoying the echidna. However, Knuckles is also seen protecting Amy and pulls her away and out of danger in the MeteorTech Premises.

In *Sonic Free Riders*, Knuckles calls her "exceptionally dense".

In *Sonic Generations*, Amy accidentally hurts Knuckles with a great force (which causes him to crash into a tree), after he said that Sonic "wasn't half bad", whereas she thought he was "all great". However, Amy does not notice how hard she hit Knuckles because she was busy swooning over Sonic.

During the Lost Hex incident, they work separately from Sonic and Tails in saving the animals from Dr. Eggman, butting heads repeatedly to each other's annoyance.

In *Sonic Forces*, they work together as part of the Resistance. Although they get along well in this game, Amy has to keep Knuckles in check at times, especially when Knuckles was more than willing to do the distraction at Green Hill himself, with Amy then saying that as the commander of the Resistance, he needs to stay at the Resistance HQ.

### Shadow the Hedgehog

 *I know that people fight over the most trivial things. Some people may be selfish, like the professor said, but they're basically good. If they try their best and never give up on their wishes, they always have a reason to be happy. That's why you should help them out. Saving them is a good thing!*

— Amy Rose, *Sonic Adventure 2*  File:QuotShadamy.ogg
Amy and Shadow appear to be on good terms, however, it didn't start in the best of ways. Amy first met Shadow during the Space Colony ARK incident when she mistook him for Sonic. Later aboard the ARK, Amy met Shadow again and managed to convince him to save humanity. As Amy and Maria have the same insight toward humanity, this might be one of the reasons Shadow is on neutral terms with her.

During *Shadow the Hedgehog*, Shadow can choose to assist Amy in helping find Cream and Cheese. At the end of the stage, Shadow benevolently advises her to be more careful. In the final ending, Amy shows an amount of faith and admiration for Shadow, regardless of anything bad that may have happened.

In *The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog*, Shadow comes to Amy's birthday and they even go to see a concert by the end of the game when Amy realizes Shadow was trying to get her to go as a gift.

### Rouge the Bat

 File:RougeAmyEggman.png
Amy and Rouge the Bat hardly interact, but clearly do not get along very well when they do. They only ever put up with each other usually because Sonic and Shadow work together on occasion. When they first met, Amy and Rouge were enemies, as the latter had been working with Shadow and Eggman, but they became allies towards the end in order to save Earth. During the Emerl incident, they fight several times over Emerl. When Amy called Rouge's house a "dump", Rouge was furious with Amy's comment and the two fought over an Emerald Shard. In *Sonic Free Riders*, Amy appeared disgusted by Rouge's lack of empathy for E-10000B when he was breaking down and her refusal to allow him to rest.

The two have seemed to get along with each other in certain circumstances like in *Shadow the Hedgehog* and *Sonic Forces*, but this may be because of the high stakes portrayed in both games.

### Dr. Eggman

 *Eggman, are you up to no good again?!*

— Amy Rose, *Sonic Heroes*  File:Amy&Eggman.ogg
Amy may know much about Eggman, but the scientist himself doesn't know about her. On the rare occasions they interacted, the doctor merely found her to be an easy pawn in his plans, using her to manipulate Sonic to ensure her safety. This extended to the Eggman persona used by Neo Metal Sonic, that found Team Rose to be an eyesore and condescendingly treated them like children. In the Space Colony ARK, Eggman held her at gunpoint as his hostage, until Tails saved Amy from the scientist, although he got the real seventh Chaos Emerald. By the time of the Starfall Islands incident, however, the villain would acknowledge her as a clever, tenacious girl that has grown from her earlier days as an easy victim. He nevertheless thought she had potentially incapable to reach if she kept following Sonic.

### Metal Sonic

 *You're the one pretending to be Sonic! You're the one responsible for taking Froggy, and Chocola!*

— Amy Rose, *Sonic Heroes*  File:Amy&MetalSonic.ogg
Metal Sonic is Amy's first ever kidnapper, during the Little Planet incident, until the real Sonic rescued her from Metal and Robotnik. But the next time they met, Amy realized Metal Sonic betrayed Eggman pretending to be Sonic, and kidnapped Froggy, Big's friend, and Chocola, Cheese's brother, and her team along with Teams Chaotix, and Dark fought Metal Madness, before Team Super Sonic fought Metal Overlord

### Vector the Crocodile

 *Okay, that's enough! I'll have you know our team has only one useless kid on it!*

— Amy Rose, *Sonic Free Riders*
Amy and Vector the Crocodile, at first, did not seem to get along with each other in the slightest in the first few times they interacted with each other.

Amy and Vector first encountered each other during the Neo Metal Sonic incident. When the Chaotix saw Team Rose, Vector wanted to ask Amy a question. Amy, believing him to be trying to make a pass at her, blows him off which irritates Vector and results in conflict.

The next time the two were seen together was in *Sonic Free Riders*. Vector joined Amy's team along with Cream to win the prize money Eggman advertised about his Grand Prix. Vector and Amy do not seem to get along. At first, Amy blames Vector for not getting them registered for the race even when he claimed that it was not his fault as she invited him to her team 30 minutes ago. Also, when Amy pretends that she was not expecting her and Sonic in the Grand Prix (because she wanted to prove that "lovers" are drawn together), Vector disapproves of her by calling her a "terrible actress". Amy also appears to yell at Vector and boss him around, something she does not do to Cream throughout the game, even though Cream is also a member of the team. Due to this, Vector is often annoyed by Amy's overbearing and domineering personality.

During the War to Take Back the Planet, Amy and Vector worked alongside each other in the Resistance to defend the world from Dr. Eggman, although they never properly interact. Though, it can be assumed that they're better friends with each other nowadays and seem to get along more than they used to. And despite their differences, Amy and Vector seem to hold some respect for each other. Amy appreciates Vector's reliability as a detective for hire, shown in *Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games* when she first turned to him for help after finding out a trap was being prepared for Sonic.

### Silver the Hedgehog

During the Solaris incident, Amy mistook Silver the Hedgehog for Sonic. Amy, not knowing who Silver was looking for and why, insisted on them looking for their respective persons together. Unable to deny her offer, Silver was dragged along with Amy unwillingly for a while, and found her to be a distraction, while Amy became his friend and promised to help him find the "Iblis Trigger". Eventually, though, Silver's helpful nature kicked in and he set aside his quest momentarily to help her search through Dusty Desert.

Silver's alliance with Amy ended up being only temporary, which ended once Silver found Sonic and tried to kill him. When Amy found out that Silver intended to kill Sonic, she turns on him and criticizes his actions. Despite this, when they meet again after Sonic dies and Mephiles and Iblis fuse, she doesn't seem to bear any particular malice towards him for his past actions. Because of what happens at the end of the game, Amy and Silver met in a different way (though how is unknown).

During the War to Take Back the Planet, Amy and Silver worked alongside each other in the Resistance to defend the world from Dr. Eggman, although they never properly interact.

### Birdie

Amy was friendly to Birdie, as she protected him from Eggman's robots and helped him to find his family. She was happy when Birdie reunited with his siblings.

### E-102 Gamma

 *You're really nice. You're different from the other robots. You've got a soft spot inside your metal frame. If you want, we can be friends, okay?*

— Amy Rose, *Sonic Adventure*  File:QuotAmy&Gamma.ogg
 File:S ev021.png
Although initially hostile to each other, Amy and E-102 Gamma eventually form a friendship, with Amy being the reason for Gamma reforming and turning against Dr. Eggman.

After Amy was captured by Eggman in *Sonic Adventure*, Gamma approaches Amy in her cell and demands she hand over the bird. Amy refuses because she cares for the bird. This confuses Gamma, who does not understand emotions, and how she can become attached to something she hardly knows, which causes Amy to feel sympathy for him and the other Eggman robots as a whole because they are not programmed to feel emotions. Gamma then decides to free Amy from her cell. Later on, when Sonic and Gamma are battling, Amy stops them because she believes Gamma is good and is her friend, asking Sonic not to hurt Gamma and insisting he is different. This act causes Gamma to decide to turn against Eggman and free the animals within the other E-100 Series robots.

### Princess Elise

 *I'll go, too! Because it's for Sonic! So Elise... Watch over him!*

— Amy Rose, *Sonic the Hedgehog* (2006)  File:QuotAmy&Elise.ogg
Princess Elise was a good friend of Amy's. Amy rescued her from Eggman's base and then escorted and saved her from the robots that were chasing her. Amy gave Elise some advice on love and told her that she had a good chance with Sonic (though she did not know that Elise cared for Sonic as well), saying, "*You're a Princess and you're super-cute. That guy's the lucky one*." Amy also comforted her in the Last Story of the game.

### Trip the Sungazer

At Lagoon City during the Northstar Islands Incident, Amy Rose found a distressful and crying Trip the Sungazer, who quickly becomes afraid of Amy, only to realize that Amy was trying to help her. After helping Trip on getting out from the trap, Amy and Trip built a friendship together, with Amy giving an apple to Trip, an act of kindness that causes Trip to be overjoyed. Amy seems to care a lot for Trip, even after the time of the Northstar Islands incident, as said in TailsTube #5 when she hinted that she would invite Trip for the next TailsTube episode celebrating the anniversary of the Northstar Islands adventure. Amy and Trip are close friends.

### Sticks the Badger

Sticks the Badger and Amy good friends. The two may also like to do activities together, as Amy wonders if Sticks is free so her along with Cream can go on a road trip at the end of the Starfall Islands incident.Template:Expansion
