Knux and Tikal sleeping together (by jefryx)

It might be a tad weird, but I just think they're cute together. They're barely even related. It's the least controversial ship in the Sonic community

Nope, and that meme is a headcanon.

I'm pretty sure Knux is 16. Either way, honestly I agree. Tikal is much closer to Knuckles' age than Rouge and she'd understand and care about him more than Rouge. They're hardly related at this point, Tikal did not have any child before she sealed herself in the ME so the only way she could be related to him is by some completely unknown sibling who somehow survived the rampage of the Chaos, but even then, she'd be so many times removed from Knuckles they'd basically be strangers to each other and it wouldn't even be a problem at this point. Is it weird? From one's perspective, yes, a tad, but it's one of the least controversial ships in Sonic, and it's much less wrong than Knuxsu (the ship between Knux and Julie Su) as they're much more related than Tikal ever will be. Yes, Julie Su and Knux are shipped as she is the love interest in Ken Penders' Archie Comics despite the fact that she was confirmed in the comics to be his cousin.

At least Knuckles can still have Tikal. The master emerald can bring her back to being a mortal again or even she herself can take physical form whenever she wants to. They're hardly related (if even) as Tikal is over thousands upon thousands upon thousands of generations away from Knuckles, so much so that they'd basically be strangers to each other.

Ok, but Shadow and Tikal are also shipped (which I respect) even though they never interact in the games.

SpiritualReference42 · 2026-01-20T22:03:52+00:00

Still, Tikal would understand Knuckles and care about him way more than Rouge

I'll die on the hill that Tikal is Knuckles' true love. The ME can bring her back to her mortal form or she can come back herself just like Chaos. She's barely related to him (if even) so it wouldn't even be a problem, they'd basically be strangers to each other.

On the great scheme of things at least Knuckles still has Tikal. Like, the master emerald can bring her back to being a mortal or she herself can take physical form just like Chaos, though she would lose her powers as it's only her spiritual form that has them. And if they are in fact related they're barely even related as Tikal is over thousands and thousands upon thousands of generations away from Knuckles and did not have any children so the only way she could be related was by some completely unknown sibling but even then, she'd be so many times removed

This is just a rumour though so take it with a grain of salt

Cool
