Does Metal Sonic have access to the Master Emerald, and thus, his Super form (from the end of Sonic and Knuckles)? If so, Metal wins. If not, X wins.

Power derived from a source like the Master Emerald is not something that can be copied, as it's not an ability, it's functionally an overcharge, so X wouldn't be able to copy it. This then puts Metal Sonic beyond X's combat skills.

Metal SOnic in his base state is not a match for X, but when amplified in such a way (and made effectively untouchable by the Super form's effects), Metal Sonic wins.
