What else can be said about Tails that hasnt been said already? Hes Sonic the Hedgehogs faithful sidekick, forever doomed to die. And die. And die. In all seriousness, Miles Tails Prower is one of the most iconic sidekicks in video game history. Like Mario and Luigi, the sight of Sonic the Hedgehog and his buddy Tails together is just gaming bread and butter. You dont typically see one without the other. Perhaps the most memorable thing about Tails is that he faithfully follows Sonic, with complete disregard for anything that happens to him. Tails frequently gets left behind, falls to his death, can drown, can be blown sky high and can even be exploited to deal extra damage to the boss. Unfortunately, aside from copying Sonics jump attack and occasionally air-lifting him to an unreachable platform, Tails really doesnt bring anything else to the table, which is both why hes on the list and why hes not any higher. As remarkable as his dedication to his hero is, the next nine characters all take it a step further.
