Well, basically Sonic says something, and a blue tornado/vortex thing appears around his opponent.

This could be argued as Sonic controlling the wind with his mind or something else beside speed, but it's a one-time thing, and not enough to prove that Sonic has aerokinesis or anything. I believe that Mystic gave the best explanation for why Sonic has the move.
