If I can remember correctly Super Sonic did get hurt in Super Sonic form and many other times especially by Knuckles and Sigma 3 as they were able to hurt Sonic in Super form but didn't actually beat him but hurt him. I haven't seen Sonic in 2 years and found out that I was reading old issues and didn't  even know about the spin-off comic series, it's why my information is off and ask Mystic Moneky for help since his information is accurate. As for all verisons of Sonic, I don't know, I have scans of him actually getting hurt but I passed the issue and continue to read and I 'm not sure which issue was that, it was at least 9 issues before I continued to read.

I am little versed in Archie comics lore, but in the game Sonic 3, you are correct that Knuckles is literally able to punch the Chaos Emeralds out of Super Sonic. With Super Sonic these days being all-powerful we're uncertain if Knuckles can still one-punch Super Sonic.

Never really explained how Knuckles was able to pull off such a fete other than purely to nerf Sonic for the brand new adventure. Though could be reasoned that Knuckles either hit Super Sonic at a crucial weakspot (given he is a fighter and skilled in melee) or his duty with the Master Emerald allow him some immunity or power over chaos powered beings.
