Knuckles vs Garnet

Winner: Knuckles

Garnet's pretty tough but she can't stand up to Knuckles. She can take a hit for the most part. That is until, her gem is cracked. Something Knuckles could easily do with his superior speed and strength. Garnet DOES have that lightning feat, but there's no reason to say that it was her reaction rather than future vision. Even if she had reacted accordingly, she still wouldn't be on par with Knuckles who has reacted to way faster(nearly every Sonic character is faster than a lightning bolt) Back to Garnet's gem cracking, too much blunt force will destroy her and essentially make her defenseless. Even if Garnet does regnerate from it and doesn't have a her gem shattered or cracked. Second time around, Knuckles will know to shatter her for good. As if his punches wouldn't already absolutely decimate her. And even though I disagree with Large Island Garnet, let's just say she has that kind of strength and durability. Won't matter since Knuckles tanked an explosion visible from space of about 60 gigatons. And he caused it. He can take way more punishment in the long run and still has better strength feats.

Garnet's best chance is her smarts, strategy and future vision. But future vision gives MULTIPLE outcomes. Sure, Knuckles is a bit predictable, but he does have some unexpected weapons. And despite her brainpower, Garnet's been taken down by those with hax and/or brute strength beyond that of her own.
