Haven't touched this thread for awhile, I thought we were done with it?

Sonic Battle said that Knuckles has "supernatural control of the earth", so it's possible he can channel energy from the earth's core to use fire-based attacks.

Or something like that. I do not believe he is geokinetic but I do believe he does have some minor "earthbending like" skills and I believe the Hammer Punch plays an important basis of his earth based powers.

If one thing for sure, Knuckles is super-strong and that punching the ground causes the earth to be pushed just the right way to have rocks move in offensive ways or to cause minor tremours.

Also, he is know to be able to lift up rocks much larger than him and throw them at impressive distances. I do not believe it's earthbending, just he is simply lifting up rocks and throwing them.
