He is as guillable as he was before, being fooled by Eggman into fighting against Sonic. At least he's muscular now and I like him for that. Surrreeee he wasn't! I meean after all, he came from an advanced society of echidna's that developed there own morales and made huge advances in science before anyone else on their planet even started living in tents. And the Gulliable thing. The first time, i mean, when your raised on an island with just your father, who trained you to always be vigilant and not to trust many others, you might believe it when a fat guy in a partly destroyed  ship thing comes to you with his burnt mustache and claims that a blue hedgehog that you've never seen or heard of is coming to your flying island to steal the one of the most powerful objects in the universe. And Knuckles also has a lot of compassion, and while he doesn't like to spend time with others, he tends to feel bad for them. And no matter how stupid Knuckles is, he is still not as stupid Silver, who thought that seeing a blue hedgehog standing in fire with a black backround behind him justified trying to kill him. Well, to be fair to Silver, He was put in a far more desparate situation. I mean, trying your whole life to fix your world and then someone tells you the answer is to go back in time and kill someone, it made at least some semblance of sense. It's not rly that Silver is stupid, (I think he was shown to be alot smarter in the Rivals games, and was even a pretty take charge kind of guy) it's that SEGA rushed Next Gen's plot to death. I don't care if they rushed it. I can only judge what i have, not what i should've had. Silver is very stupid. He didn't even bother asking jis friend Blaze for any sort of advice. He doesn't question Mephiles even after he fought Sonic the first time. The guy doesn't even know how to use his abililties right! Except next to none of that is true. Blaze does give him advice and is a major guide, he didn't question Mephiles after the first fight because all he knew to sway his opinion was that a teen girl has the hots for Sonic. (Which would have ACTUALLY been stupid to use as a legit source) And he does use his powers right to a degree, he's just not adept. You try to master telekinesis, it'd be a hard thing to do, and it'd be extremely taxing on the mind. He's actually one of the more intelligent characters in the series, but I think Knuckles is likely smarter. (At least in SA1-2)
