As a character that doesn't have separate articles for different incarnations, all relationships pertaining to this character have a place in this article. Denjo
They only have a place as long as they come from a video game and not Fan-Fiction! Wiki Curse ( talk) 01:25, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
Removed a poorly written and short section about others thinking Tails was female and false claims of Sega stating it was true during development(had no sources, as there are none). Seems very unimportant to the article, as the only source one could include is the poorly translated version of an American Sonic cartoon in Spanish which mistakenly refers to him as female. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 142.162.32.87 ( talk) 17:55, 14 January 2007 (UTC).
If it were true, I might not be suprised. Lesser Shadow 02:38, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
"Half my primary school thought Tails was sonic's girlfriend....Blah!Blah!Blah!Blah"!
What does that have to do with Tails being a girl or a boy?
The only opinion that matters is sega!

Arrgh...I spent a good bit of time improving on Tails, only to find this page. Google says that "Miles Prower" gets 12,000 hits to Tails Sonic's 78,000 and Tails Sega's 36,000. And looking at the history, Tails originally had all the info that is here! Was it really necessary to move this article to a name that's less frequently used at a ratio of 7:1 and 3:1? ~ FriedMilk 10:26, 12 Apr 2004 (UTC)
Is there any particular reason why Tails is under the "Furry" category? It might be worth explaining in the article for the more innocent among us who don't understand the ways of furries. -- Taras 15:09, 4 Sep 2004 (UTC)
Not to sound like a broken record but Should'nt articles this old be removed? Wiki Curse ( talk) 01:27, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
Please, no more pairing rumours unless it's canon in a universe. Currently, the only canon Tails couples to universes are Robo-Fiona, Barby Koala, Fiona, and Cosmo (though the first and third ones aren't exactly reciprocated...) Tails shows no romantic interest in Cream and treats her like a normal friend. If Tails somehow goes on a date with Cream then you can add it, otherwise it's not beneficial to the article because it's only fan speculation. ~foxrh
Seriously, how come everyone is saying that Cream is going out with Tails? *sigh* People, please, although it was breifly mentioned in Sonic X, that doesn't mean go all haywire. --Glitch Freak
"Though they may sound different, They have the exact same lyrics."
Not quite true. There are two versions, and the first repeats an 8-line chorus while, I believe, the second divides it into two 4-5 line choruses as seen here (I wanna fly high... I gotta keep going...). The second also has some wording changes to fit the different rhythm. -- Al Fox 05:55, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)
It's still there, and the full lyrics aren't there. And it isn't silly and some are much better than modern music. Of course, that's just my opinion, and I don't want a heated argument over the silliness of it or anything. --anon
Argh, plz, don't get too tied up with the lyrics. Yes, they are Tails', so just leave them be. --Glitch Freak
I really really want to nuke the entire rumors section: It's trivial fancruft, doesn't add anything particularly worthwhile to the article, and only seems to attract increasingly bizarre theories cooked up by fans who twist his character as they see fit. But since I'm a nice guy I'm going to state my opinion here and see if I'm the only one who thinks this way.
(side note: Is there a VfD for article sections?) Nifboy 03:21, 6 May 2005 (UTC)
Well, it's probably a good idea to keep the rumors, since throwing them out would violate a neutral point of view. On the other hand, those " increasingly bizzare rumors" are probably vandalism or trolling, and, either way, shouldn't be kept. If people want to put a rumor on the main article, they should put it on the talk page first and wait to see if the rest of Wikipedia likes it. If not, keep it out, because we don't want to be flooded with every Tom, Dick, and Harry's fancruft!!!! -- Luigifan 23:27, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
I want the rumors back for two reasons.
1. It might give me something to laugh about.
2. IT could help tell how many noobish trolls there are here. Lesser Shadow 02:08, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
Why exactly did we remove every image that WAS on the page and replace them with a ridiculously large amount of images, a lot of which look too similar to each other to be worth having on here? Images are good in moderation, but we've gone a little overboard here, don't ya think? 63.228.44.68 ( talk) 03:01, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
== COm
... Okays, the article says his theme's called "Fly High". Isn't it called "Believe in Myself"? Alexie
Some of these pictures must be deleated. I sugest the one from Sonic Battle and the one from Sonic Adventure DX.
Who the heck posted that last comment? THat has nothing to do with anything. But yeah, the theme's called 'Believe in Myself'. --Glitch Freak
Could somebody add that people thought Cream was created to be Tails's love interest? I don't know much about it, so I can't write it. --anon
---
No, because Cream ISN'T Tails love interest, in fact, he doesn't even see her probably on a monthly basis, so what's the point of putting it?
And can everyone stop adding pairing crap to Tails' wiki page? HE'S AN EIGHT YEAR OLD BOY, for God's sake. Disgusting... - lalala
I know, but I repeat, "Could somebody add that people thought Cream was created to be Tails's love interest? I don't know much about it, so I can't write it." Notice the word thought. And please refrain your language. Anyway, in Sonic X (spoiler, BTW) he likes Cosmo. --anon
It's true he likes Cosmo in Sonic X and in Archie he likes Fiona Fox (first the Robo-Fiona and now the real Fiona). I think the "Love Interest" section should be in Tails wiki page because even though he is very young doesn't mean everybody can say "This is disgusting, why should an 8 year old be in love with girls" because love doesn't have to be restricted to a certain age group, love can happen anytime in your life. So anyone who agrees with me that Tails should have a "Love Interest" section that was once there before, please say so. -- Yuri Elite
Yeah, I agree, there should be a "Love Interest" section like before, and it should have Cream as a top rumor for the games.
Can I mention the huge number of fan characters created as love interests for Tails? Just go to Fan Art Central; you should see what I mean... -- Luigifan 02:05, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
Oh, geez... It's gotten worse. A new fangirl's posted her fan character, Angel the Cat, on Wikipedia. No, really, there's an article titled "Angel the Cat" on Wikipedia, and, already several users are questioning its verafiability. The article claims that this character is from Sonic the Comic (or some other Sonic the Hedgehog comic series,) but isn't able to prove it. However, the only reason I'm mentioning it here is that this character likes Tails. And, yes, that's in a romantic sense, which, compared to the questionable verafiability, is making my "fangirl alarms" go off. Now, it might not be a fangirl; in fact, I've created a fan character that's in love with Tails, but you don't hear me harping on and on about her; indeed, I haven't even mentioned this character [on Wikipedia] until now, let alone creating an article! So, the fact that this fan character gets her own article is, again, making my "fangirl alarms" go off. But, what do you guys think? -- Luigifan 01:38, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
Has this 'Angel' been removed? If not, I'll delete it. --Glitch Freak
Oops. Heh heh. --Glitch Freak
dat wuz mi freind's charcter. dun b h8in/
Ideally, he's 8 years of age, and his birthday is October 16th, when he made his video game debut. Well, I'm pretty sure that 1992 plus 8 does NOT equal 2005. 1992 plus 8 equals 2000. He did not debut before Sonic nor did he debut after Knuckles. --ZachKudrna18@yahoo.com

We all Know he is 8 (his age is given as 9 in Sonic Yoda) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.176.13.196 ( talk) 21:14, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
Recently added was a section on the homosexual rumors which seem rampent for this char. As last i checked wikipedia was not ment to be child friendly and a place for true and useful facts regarding major subjects. I tried to present this in the fairest form possible and wish it edited to show a less biast view. It also may require grammar cleanup as english is not my first langue. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.205.60.111 ( talk • contribs) .
I agree that Tails is not gay and was never meant to be. Not only is he eight years old, but Sega would never be so stupid as to make a gay character, especially in E rated games, and besides, Tails had a crush on Cosmo in Sonic X. It is a rumour that only turns up in bad (as in "Dear Lord my brain hurts!") fanfiction and equally bad (as in "My eyes are bleeding, make it stop!") fan-art. --Some girl called Harley.
Well, we should put that many put think Tails is gay, but he actually isn't. I put in a fanfiction section, but it's gone. Is it because I wrote, "He is a character most commonly involved in yaoi" or something like that? I didn't say Tails was gay, I'm saying people just make him gay in fanfiction. --anon
You might want to reconsider that. Then tell me, why is he always clinging on to Sonic in the first place?! And this is all because SEGA had to make him a male gender. Oh, but if he was female, then we wouldn't have this problem in the first place. And if he acually was a girl, that that would make more sense why he likes Sonic so much. It could also mean "love", in a way. So, please reconsider that.
Keep in mind Sonic X doesn't exist in the Sonic Series. So, technically, he never loved anyone canonically.-Ovi

Have you ever had a really good friend? I fail to see what is so difficult about understanding this kind of thing. I know I stick to my best friend like glue, but that doesn't mean I like him sexually. Tails and Sonic have a brother/best friend relationship, that's it, there is no sex going on in the background. I will never understand why that is such a difficult concept to people.

18:46, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
The whole point isn't whether Tails is gay or not, people will make him that in fandom and they're entitled to that, as there isn't any evidence in the games that Tails is straight and none of them actually think yaoi would happen in a teen game like Sonic, it's that this crap shouldn't be on the page in the first place. Fan couples are fan couples. Fan couples are not official. Tails shows no romantic interest to anyone in the games, regardless of gender, because he is a child. Neither has he done anything romantic with Sonic. So, in addition, it shouldn't be added because it is NOT official and only fan-opinion. But Tails x Cosmo is official to Sonic X because it's apparent Tails harbours feelings for her, just as Tails x Robo-Fiona (and, later, Tails x the real Fiona) is to Archie. ~foxrh
I see this is happening here like it happened with the Spongebob series. Drop the pathetic puritan witchhunt, it's a kid's cartoon/game, they're all a-sexual. -Anon
Agreed, besides, he dated Cosmo, so that section is irrevelant. Karrmann 12:24, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
Will people stop putting "TAILS IS A FAGGOT BUT SONIC DOESN'T MIND" he's not gay he's just young. He probabaly doesn't know what gay means, anyway. ( Plainnym 19:09, 23 May 2006 (UTC))
To not mention even the possibility of Tails' homosexuality is a flagrant breach of NPOV and I have tagged it as such. -Anon.
I cannot believe that anyone is actually having this discussion. This is a sad day for Wikipedia.
Indeed, it's a bit dumb to argue about whether or not Tails is gay, when it is quite clear to anybody who actually pays attention to the established canon that he is not a homosexual. *Sigh* Some people will never learn... -- Luigifan 00:09, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
Tails has been rumored to have many different ages. One says 13, one says 8, one says 5 or 6. I belive Tails is not homosexual in anyway, shape, or form. When Tails and sonic met, Tails was drowning in quicksand (Archie comics) and Sonic believed that 2 foxes were drowning since he could only see the Tails. He had only time to grab one tail and pulled Tails out of the quicksand. Afterwards Miles "Tails" Prower, joined sonic in his adventure to stop eggman blah blah blah. At the time Tails was only 8 but a prodigy. Then in Sonic Adventure he was in the area of 11-12. Now in the upcoming sonic series which is to be released in 2007 or late 2006, he is at least 13 or 14. When Tails first met sonic he admired him. To Tails, Sonic was his hero and you get the jig (When i grow up i want to be just like you! Your my hero!!) and all that other stuff.. Then in Sonic Adventure, he began taking his life more seriously, and made a few choices of his own. Then in Sonic Adventure 2, For some reason he was reduced back to Sonic's sidekick. In Sonic heroes he had the appearence of his 12 year old form but acted as if he were back to his Sonic Fandom. Sega hasn't exactly given Miles an age. In the new series however, Sega declares he is 13 or 14. This should nullify all rumors of homosexuality, and his age as well. If not then oh well. - Kaizen (Sam)
Somebody blanked the Relationships page with "He's gay. What else is there to say?", but then reverted himself. What that was supposed to mean, I have no clue. Maybe he recieved a warning. -- Luigifan 11:14, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
HE'S 8 YEARS OLD!!! He's a little kid with a best friend! It's not a love interest, it's just that Sonic befriended Tails and they have more of a brotherly relationship. -- Emerald__Storm 21:51, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
No, he's isn't in love w/ Sonic --Glitch Freak
HE IS NOT GAY, for 1, the Sonic the hedgehog series is child frendly enough not to put homosexual theams,...and arn't there roumers that he likes cream, and like others said he is only 8, sonic is just his friend/adopted brother,...so face it,...CASE CLOSED= Tails is NOT gay!--

I hate that these Trolls are doing this. attention trolls: Just because you think something does not make it true, so let's make a list of notable trolls, (at least) semi protect this article until the Troll epidemic is done, and do what must be done to resolve the Homosexual rumors and the gender issues. End Transmission. Lesser Shadow 19:47, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
If you happen to be pining to be somebody's sidekick, make sure that a.) your boss isn't the same sex and b.) they're not twice your age. Otherwise, all the gay stuff flies out... Batman and Robin, anyone? Sten28 ( talk) 03:50, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
You know, while the gay rumours are pretty silly, arguing that he *isn't* gay is just as silly, really. I mean where in canon does Tails' sexual orientation even get mentioned? Sure, in Sonic X he likes a girl, that doesn't preclude him from liking both, so really... until Sega officially says "Tails is Hetero/Homo/Bi/Asexual" it simply hasn't been dealt with. And in a series mostly aimed at kids? Serious relationship issues don't seem quite the appropriate thing anyway. As for "Sega wouldn't be silly enough to include GAYNESS!!!!!11" arguments, society is slowly viewing homosexuality more and more as just as normal as heterosexuality, so homosexual pairings that are as non-explicit as heterosexual pairings in media for children probably will end up being more common eventually. Xmoogle ( talk) 15:36, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
I smell a possible edit war brewing. Right now the article has both Super Tails and Hyper Tails mentioned, and doesn't stick to one or the other. In looking about I see it listed as both by some official sources, so I'm not comfortable changing everything to one or the other. I do think this needs to be resolved though. Does anyone have a more reliable source than I about which his form really was called?
If it is changed to mentioned in the article that he has been called both, which so far as I understand it he has been called both, a decision still needs to be reached about which should be the more commonly used. Flailing Breegull 16:02, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
In S3&K,
The game makes it quite obvious that Super Tails is the offical name. -- DavidHOzAu 00:32, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
I always throught it was Turbo Tails, or at least that is in the comic.-- Cami!! 8/05/06
It's known as Turbo Tails in the comics, and Super Tails in S3&K. The comics are known to not be canon to the games. 67.23.84.125 13:00, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
Turbo Tails is the form equivalent to Super Sonic, Super Knuckles, Super Shadow, and Burning Blaze. Super Tails is the form equivalent to Hyper Sonic and Hyper Knuckles, because it uses the Super Emeralds. Tails couldn't use the Chaos Emerals to go super in Sonic the Hedgehog 3, so it wouldn't make sense for him to suddenly be able to do so in Sonic 3 & Knuckles; however, Sega wanted to let him have a form like Super Sonic for that game, so they made Super Tails, which powered up with the Super Emeralds like Hyper Sonic and Hyper Knuckles. However, these forms have only made any further appearances in the Archie Comics (with the absolutely ludicrous number of Chaos Emeralds in existance.) -- Luigifan 02:15, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
Turbo tails is from the archie comics...it has nothing to do with the games. Tails does not have a hyper form, mainly because he needed 14 emeralds just to transform, unlike Sonic and Knuckles who transformed with only 7. Within the game itself it is called "Super Tails" and therefore cannot be regarded as a hyper form, whether he used 14 emeralds or not. There was no preceeding form before this, and therefore can only be viewed as Tails needing more Emeralds in order to HAVE a super form. 12:35 Nov. 19
I know in 1 game (4get which) Tails had a form called 'Turbo Tails' -dark52 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.27.231.237 ( talk) 21:31, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
Maybe it is Super Tails, because that would match up with Super Sonic, right? Or am I just babbling? Or am I too late, and the conflict was resolved??? Either way, my little comment is here now. :3 Cloudy fox 001 ( talk) 07:40, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
This article goes all over the place. I'm going to be bold and fix it. -- DavidHOzAu 01:53, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
Can someone give an official source for this name? As far as I can see it's just fandom showing through. 86.142.179.66 11:37, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
Since Sonic Heroes, it's now called Team Sonic. -- Luigifan 02:17, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
So recently Tails's age has been changed from 8 to 11 at least three times. I thought putting a link to a page that shows his age RIGHT NEXT to the age statement would be enough, but no, apparently not. We seem to have an edit war going on. Do we need to put in a request to get the page protected? -- Darksasami 23:39, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
I think we need an anon block on this page, because this page is getting frequently vandalized by fans adding fancruft, or anons blanking the page or replacing text with stuff like "Tails is a fagot!" It has been happening a lot lately, and I think a block should be in order. Karrmann 19:02, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
Ok, enoughs enough, people are starting to replace images of him with images of geneitals. Kids probally the ones who view this oage most, and we don't want them seeing that. it needs to be protected. Karrmann 11:43, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
What's all that about on external links? Tails Sells Cars?

Hee, I know I'm late, but there actually is a car company that has Tails as their mascot. I can't remember what it's called, but I saw an ad for it on YouTube once. Just saying. Spottedstripe 12:58, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
Can you please send me the youtube link with the Tails as the mascot? -- l07pered —Preceding undated comment was added at 11:12, 11 November 2008 (UTC).
delete a picture and turn that in to a screenshot from sonic 2 or 3 that has tails and sonic together.
Please sign comments with four tildes in the future. But why, exactly? All of the images used in the article seem to correspond well with the sections they're aligned with. Adding/removing/replacing images would only serve to weaken the article. Héous 19:59, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
I was going through history one day and saw all the vandalism. There were pictures of a mutated rat thing and of all the pictures they posted, they posted a disturbing picture of an aroused um...wee-wee and it was totally DISGUSTING!!!! -- Plainnym 19:26, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
Oh, dear... what an excellent example of the inescapable fact that the human race is becoming evil to the core. If you ask me, the only way to really stop such disgusting behavior is to enlighten these lost souls, so that they realize that God is the only true road to happiness. Just one thing; try to actually follow Christ's example. There's already enough distrust of Christianity in the world, and another attempt at forceful conversion is only going to make things worse. -- Luigifan 02:25, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
Speaking of vandalism... did anyone else spot the Miles 'BEASTATOR' Prower thing? Can any of you say 'damned vandals' in Klingon? Vor'Cha
Wow, vandalism has absolutely nothing at all to do with God. People need to start getting their priorities straight. People also need to NOT vandalize things. It's sickening. NightmareSnake
someone has got to find some info on this guy! By the way, did he really voice Tails in Sonic Battle? 'Cause the William Corkery made him sound, indeed, like an eight year old, but he sounded a bit more mature than that in Sonic Battle (which sounded perfect, by the way), and a little different, so if someone could search for it, that would help; i'll look too, though.
Well, I looked him up on IMDb and didn't find much. Is he an adult or younger than that? I do like the Tails voice he does though...oh, and do Bill Corkery (Vector) and Emily Corkery (Charmy) bear any relation to him? Just some food for thought. TMNT Donatello 07:43, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
He was 8 when he first voiced Tails.
I believe that he's 2/3 years younger than me. I was about 11 when Sonic Heroes came out, and according to Ryan Drummond (Sonic's pre-4Kids VA) William Corkery was about 8/9 when he voiced Tails in SH. So...if you do the math... ChromeWulf ZX 04:14, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
The sprite should be removed, as it has no source, and it happens to have never appeared in any game. -- Alexie 20:36, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
Oh and for the record, I've replaced the image of Super Tails altogether. The one now shows him posing at the end of his game, and is in better quality Grandmastergalvatron 17:03, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
Section overhauled, and heroes issue left open ended. Grandmastergalvatron 03:18, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
Alright...I'm about ready to redo the "Sonic Heroes" section as the second coming of Super Tails. The only problem we had here was the manner in which he got the form and Sonic '06 is a right slap in the face to any arguments on that end. Any oppositions? GrandMasterGalvatron 06:02, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
In Sonic Heroes, it IS Super Tails, but it's not exactly the same. It also seems to be the last known appearance of Tails' super form. Which, by the way, displeases me. NightmareSnake
You should keep the sprite.
I have changed the picture to the latest released art from Sonic Channel, hope you guys dont mind. ROSSY MILES TALK 00:41, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
I don't mind. We need to update all of the pics on the Sonic char articles anyway. But, they'll probably showcase new artwork for Sonic the Hedgehog (2006). But, till then, I hear an edit war arising. O_O UnDeRsCoRe 00:50, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Tails is stated as being 12 years old in the Sonic Adventure series... and he DOES age in real time until Sonic Adventure 2. Notice how his speech, self-confidence and smarts grow more and more adult from Sonic 2(Stupid sidekick) through Sonic Adventure(older boy with self-cofidence issues) to Sonic Adventure 2(Independent teenager). After that they made him more and more childish and reverted his age to 8. --Takfloyd
Whilst I am very much a Wikipedia newbie, and not particularly familiar with Sonic, I thought I might offer a suggestion. The above states that people are constantly editing what this article lists as being Tails' age because it is, supposedly different in some of the games, right? If so, why not alleviate the problem by creating a small list so as to educate people who have been confused by all the different ages. Something along the lines of 'Tails' age has varied throughout the games and elsewhere', then simply listing his different ages and stating which canon they came from. It's probably too minor a thing to consider, but if his age has been causing this article trouble, well... ? Vor'Cha 9:17, 18 December 2006 (EST)
I totally agree. They really should do that. It would aleviate the problem a little bit. NightmareSnake
Sorry, new to the editing side of Wikipedia, but isn't the line that's in at the minute about Tails being "the third most popular charcter [sic] of the series, behind Sonic and Shadow" a bit biased? I just wanted to point it out, or at least know I'm doing the right thing before I edit it out. 82.19.17.88 00:52, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
Actually, it's not. Sonic Channel, the japanese Sonic website, made a poll. [1] I'll go add it to references so that this doesn't happen again. Gurko 19:59, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
Does Tails apply to this wikiproject? Seems odd to me... -- Wizardman 00:13, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
I think it was yesterday that someone got agrivated at someone for repeatedly posting Shadow and Tikal, and left a message for them to stop because it wasn't fact. Wouldn't putting something about Cream with Tails be the same thing? It's both fan fiction, and opinionated conclusions. Just wondering, so don't throw a tantrum for it. 71.209.170.253 23:05, 9 January 2007 (UTC)Michael Kelso

You got it. Alot of people just get all caught up in their own daydreams about their characters and Tails. Look at the 'new fangirl?' section, and you'll see my point. --Glitch Freak
Somebody altered the section about Tails' role in Mobius 25 Years Later to say that he's married to Cream instead of Mina. And for some reason, it's completely impossible to edit because whenever I try to edit, the edit box come up, but the Mobius section doesn't appear. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.39.128.229 ( talk) 17:33, 14 February 2007 (UTC).
Well, in my personal opinion, I think Tails should be with Fiona, but I don't go puttin' it on wikipedia. Maybe we should consult the wikipedia people about this and see what's up. I mean, if you can't find the M:25L section anywhere, something's wrong, right? 4.244.177.219 01:48, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
Ugh... shippers. Lesser Shadow 19:40, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
Apparently, some vandal thinks that Tails is a girl. I just saw an edit where somebody changed Tails's gender to "female". It's been reverted already, but I'm still disturbed. I think an investigation needs to be launched. -- Luigifan 14:43, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
You guys, the vandal strikes again! It's awful we need to do something!
Tails is not a girl! I may not know everything about Tails but I know he does not look like a girl, he does not act like a girl, he does not talk like a girl! Get it through your heads! Enough with the changes! 12:00 PM July 8th. Signed- A big Tails fan.
I think the "girl" confusion its worth mentioning in the article. My Friends and I grew thinking he was a girl. In the Spanish transmissions of the old series, he was given a kind of girly voice. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.50.16.166 ( talk) 16:45, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

What the heck does his IQ have to do with his personality? That should be in 'Abilities' or something like that. Three-Tail 19:45, 14 March 2007 (UTC) Acctually when they talk about his IQ that's just talking about his personality of being really smart.
I've been wondering, was Tails always a prodigy with robotics, or was that something they added and kept since Sonic Adventure? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.218.92.64 ( talk) 17:03, 22 March 2007 (UTC).
I think the manuals say so, but I'm not sure. He could fly a plane at the age of eight in early games though, I think that's pretty good if i'm not retarded.
I was wondering and it's not a couple thing, but I was wondering if he had his own game like Shadow the Hedgehog and went on a journey to find the Chaos Emeralds and not only save the universe, rescuing his friends, but mastering his new powers and fight an ultimate evil that's powerful than all of the enemies Sonic and friends faced and others combined to stop his plans from collect the Emeralds and rule this planet?

Secular usually means "not pertaining to or connected with religion." Interpreting its usage loosely, perhaps the editor here meant non-canonical, but I don't know Sonic lore well enough to know for certain. Anyway, in my opinion "secular" is not a good fit and introduces confusion. - BoyliciousDarian 15:24, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

If Tails is a Boy, Then why dose it say "female" and "she" all the time? Probaly someone's Messing around with the page. I always had to correct my little sister when she said tails was a girl, and I look at his page and it says "female" and I almost have a heart attack.

Alright, can you give us a scan? Lesser Shadow 08:10, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
I've looked around trying to find scans of the manual, but have been unable to do so. (The manual I originally read belonged to my uncle, who has since disposed of his old Genesis paraphenalia.) While the site you've linked does indeed use "he", I must point out that that site is not a scan of the manual packaged with the game, thus isn't what we're looking for.
Incidentally, I take exception to your insinuation about me. "spready that lie crap". I recognise that my reccolections are fallable, but this insinuation that I'm being deliberately deceptive is insulting and uncalled for. I didn't go through the article adding lines consistent with my reccolection. Rather, I posted those reccolections on this talk page in an effort to clear up amongst people where I believed this debate to have originated. I was hopeful that the manuals might be consulted either confirming my reccolection or demonstrating that my reccolections were incorrect. I was hoping to point this conversation/arguement in a more productive direction. If I had the manuals on hand, I could consult them directly rather than rely on reccolections from years ago, but I don't, so all I can provide is a clue to where the information might be (if I remember correctly) and hope that someone has the source needed to confirm or deny my reccolection.

This is interesting,but this part of the article is way too small. Is is really useful?i think it should be deleted or at least it should be improved further,i could help by adding pictures.

Hey, everyone. After reading this article through, I'm worrying there may be too much in-universe perspective here. It's very plot repetitive in some sections, so I was wondering what you guys would think about cutting down the plot summary as per WP:PLOT and some of the uncited material. Perhaps we can model it after Sonic the Hedgehog (character), which is a Good Article. There's just too much fat in this article for it to be a decent article, and I'd like to see it do better. Thanks for your consideration. Red Phoenix ( Talk) 04:09, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
On second thought, I'm just going to be bold here and fix it myself. Let me explain the problem more thoroughly: We don't need all this excessive plot summary and mentioning absolutely every appearance of Tails in Sonic games. It's just too much and it violates WP:PLOT. Most, if not all, of it is also uncited, which suggests a violation of WP:OR and WP:V. I'm certainly willing to work something out with everyone if you guys don't like what I'm about to do with the article, but this really needs to happen, it just clutters up the article with unnecessary information. Remember, sometimes you can get addition by subtraction. Don't get me wrong, I'm a Tails fan myself, and he's one of my favorite characters in the series. But that's why I'm doing this, to clean this article up. Red Phoenix ( Talk) 02:46, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

In real life, Tails would simply twist his tails up if he tried to spin them like a helicopter, but it does not happen in games / cartoons / comics because of cartoon rules and cartoon physics – you are supposed to just accept it without thinking about it (just like you are supposed to accept that Amy is somehow able to pull a giant mallet out of thin air, Cream's neck is strong enough to lift the rest of her body up to the same height of her head when she flies, there are loops and corkscrews in city streets, and so on) Cigraphix ( talk) 14:46, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Please, no more pairing rumours unless it's canon in a universe. Currently, the only canon Tails couples to universes are Robo-Fiona, Barby Koala, Fiona, and Cosmo (though the first and third ones aren't exactly reciprocated...) Tails shows no romantic interest in Cream and treats her like a normal friend. If Tails somehow goes on a date with Cream then you can add it, otherwise it's not beneficial to the article because it's only fan speculation. ~foxrh
Seriously, how come everyone is saying that Cream is going out with Tails? *sigh* People, please, although it was breifly mentioned in Sonic X, that doesn't mean go all haywire. --Glitch Freak
"Though they may sound different, They have the exact same lyrics."
Not quite true. There are two versions, and the first repeats an 8-line chorus while, I believe, the second divides it into two 4-5 line choruses as seen here (I wanna fly high... I gotta keep going...). The second also has some wording changes to fit the different rhythm. -- Al Fox 05:55, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)
It's still there, and the full lyrics aren't there. And it isn't silly and some are much better than modern music. Of course, that's just my opinion, and I don't want a heated argument over the silliness of it or anything. --anon

I really really want to nuke the entire rumors section: It's trivial fancruft, doesn't add anything particularly worthwhile to the article, and only seems to attract increasingly bizarre theories cooked up by fans who twist his character as they see fit.

Well, it's probably a good idea to keep the rumors, since throwing them out would violate a neutral point of view. On the other hand, those " increasingly bizzare rumors" are probably vandalism or trolling, and, either way, shouldn't be kept. If people want to put a rumor on the main article, they should put it on the talk page first and wait to see if the rest of Wikipedia likes it. If not, keep it out, because we don't want to be flooded with every Tom, Dick, and Harry's fancruft!!!! -- Luigifan 23:27, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Some of these pictures must be deleated. I sugest the one from Sonic Battle and the one from Sonic Adventure DX.
Who the heck posted that last comment? THat has nothing to do with anything. But yeah, the theme's called 'Believe in Myself'. --Glitch Freak
Could somebody add that people thought Cream was created to be Tails's love interest? I don't know much about it, so I can't write it. --anon

No, because Cream ISN'T Tails love interest, in fact, he doesn't even see her probably on a monthly basis, so what's the point of putting it?
And can everyone stop adding pairing crap to Tails' wiki page? HE'S AN EIGHT YEAR OLD BOY, for God's sake. Disgusting... - lalala
I know, but I repeat, "Could somebody add that people thought Cream was created to be Tails's love interest? I don't know much about it, so I can't write it." Notice the word thought. And please refrain your language. Anyway, in Sonic X (spoiler, BTW) he likes Cosmo. --anon
It's true he likes Cosmo in Sonic X and in Archie he likes Fiona Fox (first the Robo-Fiona and now the real Fiona). I think the "Love Interest" section should be in Tails wiki page because even though he is very young doesn't mean everybody can say "This is disgusting, why should an 8 year old be in love with girls" because love doesn't have to be restricted to a certain age group, love can happen anytime in your life. So anyone who agrees with me that Tails should have a "Love Interest" section that was once there before, please say so. -- Yuri Elite
Yeah, I agree, there should be a "Love Interest" section like before, and it should have Cream as a top rumor for the games.
Can I mention the huge number of fan characters created as love interests for Tails? Just go to Fan Art Central; you should see what I mean... -- Luigifan 02:05, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
Oh, geez... It's gotten worse. A new fangirl's posted her fan character, Angel the Cat, on Wikipedia. No, really, there's an article titled "Angel the Cat" on Wikipedia, and, already several users are questioning its verafiability. The article claims that this character is from Sonic the Comic (or some other Sonic the Hedgehog comic series,) but isn't able to prove it. However, the only reason I'm mentioning it here is that this character likes Tails. And, yes, that's in a romantic sense, which, compared to the questionable verafiability, is making my "fangirl alarms" go off. Now, it might not be a fangirl; in fact, I've created a fan character that's in love with Tails, but you don't hear me harping on and on about her; indeed, I haven't even mentioned this character [on Wikipedia] until now, let alone creating an article! So, the fact that this fan character gets her own article is, again, making my "fangirl alarms" go off. But, what do you guys think? -- Luigifan 01:38, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Ideally, he's 8 years of age, and his birthday is October 16th, when he made his video game debut. Well, I'm pretty sure that 1992 plus 8 does NOT equal 2005. 1992 plus 8 equals 2000. He did not debut before Sonic nor did he debut after Knuckles. --ZachKudrna18@yahoo.com

Recently added was a section on the homosexual rumors which seem rampent for this char. As last i checked wikipedia was not ment to be child friendly and a place for true and useful facts regarding major subjects.

I agree that Tails is not gay and was never meant to be. Not only is he eight years old, but Sega would never be so stupid as to make a gay character, especially in E rated games, and besides, Tails had a crush on Cosmo in Sonic X. It is a rumour that only turns up in bad (as in "Dear Lord my brain hurts!") fanfiction and equally bad (as in "My eyes are bleeding, make it stop!") fan-art. --Some girl called Harley.
Well, we should put that many put think Tails is gay, but he actually isn't. I put in a fanfiction section, but it's gone. Is it because I wrote, "He is a character most commonly involved in yaoi" or something like that? I didn't say Tails was gay, I'm saying people just make him gay in fanfiction. --anon
You might want to reconsider that. Then tell me, why is he always clinging on to Sonic in the first place?! And this is all because SEGA had to make him a male gender. Oh, but if he was female, then we wouldn't have this problem in the first place. And if he acually was a girl, that that would make more sense why he likes Sonic so much. It could also mean "love", in a way. So, please reconsider that.
Keep in mind Sonic X doesn't exist in the Sonic Series. So, technically, he never loved anyone canonically.-Ovi

Have you ever had a really good friend? I fail to see what is so difficult about understanding this kind of thing. I know I stick to my best friend like glue, but that doesn't mean I like him sexually. Tails and Sonic have a brother/best friend relationship, that's it, there is no sex going on in the background. I will never understand why that is such a difficult concept to people.

The whole point isn't whether Tails is gay or not, people will make him that in fandom and they're entitled to that, as there isn't any evidence in the games that Tails is straight and none of them actually think yaoi would happen in a teen game like Sonic, it's that this crap shouldn't be on the page in the first place. Fan couples are fan couples. Fan couples are not official. Tails shows no romantic interest to anyone in the games, regardless of gender, because he is a child. Neither has he done anything romantic with Sonic. So, in addition, it shouldn't be added because it is NOT official and only fan-opinion. But Tails x Cosmo is official to Sonic X because it's apparent Tails harbours feelings for her, just as Tails x Robo-Fiona (and, later, Tails x the real Fiona) is to Archie. ~foxrh
I see this is happening here like it happened with the Spongebob series. Drop the pathetic puritan witchhunt, it's a kid's cartoon/game, they're all a-sexual. -Anon

To not mention even the possibility of Tails' homosexuality is a flagrant breach of NPOV and I have tagged it as such. -Anon.
I cannot believe that anyone is actually having this discussion. This is a sad day for Wikipedia.
Indeed, it's a bit dumb to argue about whether or not Tails is gay, when it is quite clear to anybody who actually pays attention to the established canon that he is not a homosexual. *Sigh* Some people will never learn... -- Luigifan 00:09, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
Tails has been rumored to have many different ages. One says 13, one says 8, one says 5 or 6. I belive Tails is not homosexual in anyway, shape, or form. When Tails and sonic met, Tails was drowning in quicksand (Archie comics) and Sonic believed that 2 foxes were drowning since he could only see the Tails. He had only time to grab one tail and pulled Tails out of the quicksand. Afterwards Miles "Tails" Prower, joined sonic in his adventure to stop eggman blah blah blah. At the time Tails was only 8 but a prodigy. Then in Sonic Adventure he was in the area of 11-12. Now in the upcoming sonic series which is to be released in 2007 or late 2006, he is at least 13 or 14. When Tails first met sonic he admired him. To Tails, Sonic was his hero and you get the jig (When i grow up i want to be just like you! Your my hero!!) and all that other stuff.. Then in Sonic Adventure, he began taking his life more seriously, and made a few choices of his own. Then in Sonic Adventure 2, For some reason he was reduced back to Sonic's sidekick. In Sonic heroes he had the appearence of his 12 year old form but acted as if he were back to his Sonic Fandom. Sega hasn't exactly given Miles an age. In the new series however, Sega declares he is 13 or 14. This should nullify all rumors of homosexuality, and his age as well. If not then oh well. - Kaizen (Sam)
Somebody blanked the Relationships page with "He's gay. What else is there to say?", but then reverted himself. What that was supposed to mean, I have no clue. Maybe he recieved a warning. -- Luigifan 11:14, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
HE'S 8 YEARS OLD!!! He's a little kid with a best friend! It's not a love interest, it's just that Sonic befriended Tails and they have more of a brotherly relationship. -- Emerald__Storm 21:51, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

You know, while the gay rumours are pretty silly, arguing that he *isn't* gay is just as silly, really. I mean where in canon does Tails' sexual orientation even get mentioned? Sure, in Sonic X he likes a girl, that doesn't preclude him from liking both, so really... until Sega officially says "Tails is Hetero/Homo/Bi/Asexual" it simply hasn't been dealt with. And in a series mostly aimed at kids? Serious relationship issues don't seem quite the appropriate thing anyway. As for "Sega wouldn't be silly enough to include GAYNESS!!!!!11" arguments, society is slowly viewing homosexuality more and more as just as normal as heterosexuality, so homosexual pairings that are as non-explicit as heterosexual pairings in media for children probably will end up being more common eventually. Xmoogle ( talk) 15:36, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
I smell a possible edit war brewing. Right now the article has both Super Tails and Hyper Tails mentioned, and doesn't stick to one or the other. In looking about I see it listed as both by some official sources, so I'm not comfortable changing everything to one or the other. I do think this needs to be resolved though. Does anyone have a more reliable source than I about which his form really was called?
If it is changed to mentioned in the article that he has been called both, which so far as I understand it he has been called both, a decision still needs to be reached about which should be the more commonly used. Flailing Breegull 16:02, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
In S3&K,
The game makes it quite obvious that Super Tails is the offical name. -- DavidHOzAu 00:32, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
I always throught it was Turbo Tails, or at least that is in the comic.-- Cami!! 8/05/06
It's known as Turbo Tails in the comics, and Super Tails in S3&K. The comics are known to not be canon to the games. 67.23.84.125 13:00, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
Turbo Tails is the form equivalent to Super Sonic, Super Knuckles, Super Shadow, and Burning Blaze. Super Tails is the form equivalent to Hyper Sonic and Hyper Knuckles, because it uses the Super Emeralds. Tails couldn't use the Chaos Emerals to go super in Sonic the Hedgehog 3, so it wouldn't make sense for him to suddenly be able to do so in Sonic 3 & Knuckles; however, Sega wanted to let him have a form like Super Sonic for that game, so they made Super Tails, which powered up with the Super Emeralds like Hyper Sonic and Hyper Knuckles. However, these forms have only made any further appearances in the Archie Comics (with the absolutely ludicrous number of Chaos Emeralds in existance.) -- Luigifan 02:15, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
Turbo tails is from the archie comics...it has nothing to do with the games. Tails does not have a hyper form, mainly because he needed 14 emeralds just to transform, unlike Sonic and Knuckles who transformed with only 7. Within the game itself it is called "Super Tails" and therefore cannot be regarded as a hyper form, whether he used 14 emeralds or not. There was no preceeding form before this, and therefore can only be viewed as Tails needing more Emeralds in order to HAVE a super form. 12:35 Nov. 19

someone has got to find some info on this guy! By the way, did he really voice Tails in Sonic Battle? 'Cause the William Corkery made him sound, indeed, like an eight year old, but he sounded a bit more mature than that in Sonic Battle (which sounded perfect, by the way), and a little different, so if someone could search for it, that would help; i'll look too, though.
Well, I looked him up on IMDb and didn't find much. Is he an adult or younger than that? I do like the Tails voice he does though...oh, and do Bill Corkery (Vector) and Emily Corkery (Charmy) bear any relation to him? Just some food for thought. TMNT Donatello 07:43, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
He was 8 when he first voiced Tails.
I believe that he's 2/3 years younger than me. I was about 11 when Sonic Heroes came out, and according to Ryan Drummond (Sonic's pre-4Kids VA) William Corkery was about 8/9 when he voiced Tails in SH. So...if you do the math... ChromeWulf ZX 04:14, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Tails is stated as being 12 years old in the Sonic Adventure series... and he DOES age in real time until Sonic Adventure 2. Notice how his speech, self-confidence and smarts grow more and more adult from Sonic 2(Stupid sidekick) through Sonic Adventure(older boy with self-cofidence issues) to Sonic Adventure 2(Independent teenager). After that they made him more and more childish and reverted his age to 8. --Takfloyd
Whilst I am very much a Wikipedia newbie, and not particularly familiar with Sonic, I thought I might offer a suggestion. The above states that people are constantly editing what this article lists as being Tails' age because it is, supposedly different in some of the games, right? If so, why not alleviate the problem by creating a small list so as to educate people who have been confused by all the different ages. Something along the lines of 'Tails' age has varied throughout the games and elsewhere', then simply listing his different ages and stating which canon they came from. It's probably too minor a thing to consider, but if his age has been causing this article trouble, well... ? Vor'Cha 9:17, 18 December 2006 (EST)
I totally agree. They really should do that. It would aleviate the problem a little bit. NightmareSnake
Sorry, new to the editing side of Wikipedia, but isn't the line that's in at the minute about Tails being "the third most popular charcter [sic] of the series, behind Sonic and Shadow" a bit biased?

I think the manuals say so, but I'm not sure. He could fly a plane at the age of eight in early games though, I think that's pretty good if i'm not retarded.
I was wondering and it's not a couple thing, but I was wondering if he had his own game like Shadow the Hedgehog and went on a journey to find the Chaos Emeralds and not only save the universe, rescuing his friends, but mastering his new powers and fight an ultimate evil that's powerful than all of the enemies Sonic and friends faced and others combined to stop his plans from collect the Emeralds and rule this planet?

Incidentally, I take exception to your insinuation about me. "spready that lie crap". I recognise that my reccolections are fallable, but this insinuation that I'm being deliberately deceptive is insulting and uncalled for. I didn't go through the article adding lines consistent with my reccolection. Rather, I posted those reccolections on this talk page in an effort to clear up amongst people where I believed this debate to have originated. I was hopeful that the manuals might be consulted either confirming my reccolection or demonstrating that my reccolections were incorrect. I was hoping to point this conversation/arguement in a more productive direction. If I had the manuals on hand, I could consult them directly rather than rely on reccolections from years ago, but I don't, so all I can provide is a clue to where the information might be (if I remember correctly) and hope that someone has the source needed to confirm or deny my reccolection.

I don't have an account on Yahoo, so I can't follow this up. However, somebody claiming to be Hirokazu says that Tails was originally designed as a girl, but that the design team later decided that he would be more marketable as a boy.

What the? Who deleted the image of Tails? That's the most recent image of Tails we have; there wasn't any reason for it to be deleted! Now we're stuck staring at infoboxes with no image at the top! Could somebody please undelete or replace the image? -- Luigifan 12:40, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
This is interesting,but this part of the article is way too small. Is is really useful?i think it should be deleted or at least it should be improved further,i could help by adding pictures. If we are going by the japan continuity which i believe is the true canon,it should just say Tails'Adventure is the prequel to Sonic the hedgehog,since its take place before Tails meet Sonic,so its not only in the japanese back story.

Now that the game is out(I don't have the game yet),it would be nice if someone added some info concerning the vehicles Tails built or his relashionship with Marine and also i believe its possible to improve the Subsequent appearances section concerning Tails apparence in Sonic Rush Adventure. HolyNightmare 20:47, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
Yeah...i thought you already knew that,anyway it would be fun if we could add Tails'vehicles in the creation section. I'll do it if no one does,its just that my grammar is weak. HolyNightmare 16:31, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Hey, everyone. After reading this article through, I'm worrying there may be too much in-universe perspective here. It's very plot repetitive in some sections, so I was wondering what you guys would think about cutting down the plot summary as per WP:PLOT and some of the uncited material. Perhaps we can model it after Sonic the Hedgehog (character), which is a Good Article. There's just too much fat in this article for it to be a decent article, and I'd like to see it do better. Thanks for your consideration. Red Phoenix ( Talk) 04:09, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
On second thought, I'm just going to be bold here and fix it myself. Let me explain the problem more thoroughly: We don't need all this excessive plot summary and mentioning absolutely every appearance of Tails in Sonic games. It's just too much and it violates WP:PLOT. Most, if not all, of it is also uncited, which suggests a violation of WP:OR and WP:V. I'm certainly willing to work something out with everyone if you guys don't like what I'm about to do with the article, but this really needs to happen, it just clutters up the article with unnecessary information. Remember, sometimes you can get addition by subtraction. Don't get me wrong, I'm a Tails fan myself, and he's one of my favorite characters in the series. But that's why I'm doing this, to clean this article up. Red Phoenix ( Talk) 02:46, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

In real life, Tails would simply twist his tails up if he tried to spin them like a helicopter, but it does not happen in games / cartoons / comics because of cartoon rules and cartoon physics – you are supposed to just accept it without thinking about it (just like you are supposed to accept that Amy is somehow able to pull a giant mallet out of thin air, Cream's neck is strong enough to lift the rest of her body up to the same height of her head when she flies, there are loops and corkscrews in city streets, and so on) Cigraphix ( talk) 14:46, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

No, you don't make any sense at all. Going by your retarded logic Sonic was jacking off to Shadow in Sonic Adventure 2 during the famous Super Sonic scene. Seriously get out why would a gay character exist in a game destined for kids? It's ridiculous, beside Tails got Cosmo and Fiona as love interests which last time I checked were girls. Also that girl Tails rumor is pure crap. His original character concept going by his creator( Yasushi Yamaguchi) was alway a male sidekick, whenever his initial concept was a fox or a tanooki he was alway a guy. 76.65.88.224 ( talk) 09:24, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
Miles "Tails" Prower, the Fox, can't sit still when Sonic's around. Ever since Miles was a baby fox, he's dreamed of being like Sonic. He loves to run after Sonic, waving his 2 tails behind him, trying to keep up with his hero!

The reference here seems a little shaky. Tails was created for the in-house sega competition to design Sonic's sidekick, and that doesn't really leave much room for a redesign from tanuki to a two tailed fox. Mezerian ( talk) 05:20, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

Dude, a demon fox is not called a "tanuki", it is called a "kitsune."

The "tanuki" issue is interesting if it can be backed up. I would like to see someone pull out a good reference for this one because, if it is true, it would be great to include it in the article.
