Screwdriver

Screwdriver   is a special attack used by Knuckles the Echidna. Using this move, Knuckles attacks the enemy in a form similar to the Homing Attack. Description  Edit While standing still, Knuckles can charge his power, and when he releases it, he launches himself forward and homes a nearby enemy to attack. When using Screwdriver, Knuckles will launch himself spinning through the air in a fiery dash for a short time, while keeping his fists in front.
