1. Straw Man fallacy, anyone? I never said Sonic can't win because he's never fought monkeys. In fact, I said that finding a victor through what diverse enemies they've fought alone is invalid. So, I said the exact opposite. What I was really saying was that Mario has fought plenty of things Sonic hasn't.

2. The entire game's bosses require strategy to beat. Maybe he doesn't strategize against the basic foes, but I guarantee he does for the mini-bosses and bosses. Mainly because... you kinda have to.

3. Mario has loose continuity--we don't know how strong Wario was at the time. I don't scale Toad to Wario, personally, but the point was that Toad has gone on adventures all by himself on two different occasions.

4. Sonic is seen running up walls in two games? Why not the rest of his eighty? Because game mechanics. The same reason Mario isn't always running on water. And actually, he runs at those speeds in Galaxy at almost all times, with and without the Launch Star. He needs the Launch Star for flight, which is why he doesn't just go to the galaxies himself.

5. That's true, they might not. Not at first. But if they are threats, the Bros. will realize that almost immediately. And what they would mistake them for isn't relevant in this case, since I doubt neither of them really care what Sonic and Tails are.
