Appearance
In terms of size, Amy is shorter than Sonic, but taller than Tails. She is also the thinnest of the group. Compared to her appearances in other media, Amy is wearing a red one piece top with a Sarashi around her waist with larger rings and purple tape on her wrist as well as purple stockings over her shoes.

Personality
Amy is described as smart, independent, strong and confident.

Powers and Abilities

Serving as her group's archaeologist, Amy has knowledge of the ancient areas that she explores with her friends, which contributes to the team.

Piko Piko Hammer
Amy's only known weapon is the Piko Piko Hammer, a large hammer that she uses for melee combat and acrobatic stunts. She is very powerful with it when swinging it around.

Sticks
Amy is best friends with the wild girl Sticks. She helps Sticks adapt to civilization while Sticks is willing to go to extremes to protect Amy.

Sonic the Hedgehog
According to Bob Rafei, Amy will not be constantly fawning over Sonic, unlike versions of herself from other continuities.

Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric/Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal
Amy also appears in the video games Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric and Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal. The games serve as a prequel to the TV series, where Amy and her friends Sonic, Tails and Knuckles come to a unknown island to battle an ancient evil named Lyric. Amy is one of the four playable characters in Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric, where uses her Piko Piko Hammer to either fight enemies using attacks reminiscing the Spin Hammer Attack or to swing on poles. She also has a triple jump, enabling her to jump much higher than her teammates.

In Sonic Boom Shattered Crystal, she is captured by Lyric, who plots to use her to find the crystal shards due to her archaeological knowledge.
