I think Knuckles been tricked at least twice throughout the games. Sonic 3 when Eggman convinced Knuckles that Sonic was the badguy and Sonic Adventure when Dr. Eggman had Knuckles believe Sonic was collecting pieces of the Master Emerald and Knuckles mistaken Sonic's green Chaos Emerald as one of the pieces.

Knuckles act's more on his fists than his brain, but that doesn't mean he's an idiot. We all get hornswaggled now and again in our lives.
