Miles "Tails" Prower

“	I've changed a lot since I've started hanging with Sonic, but I can't depend on him forever. I know I can do this by myself!	„
	~ Miles "Tails" Prower

“	As long as I'm around, you'll always have a wingman.	„
	~ Tails in Sonic Prime (2022-2024)

Miles "Tails" Prower (Japanese: マイルス "テイルス" パウアー, Hepburn: Mairusu "Teirusu" Pauā) is a fictional character in Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog series, and the title character's best friend, sidekick, and most recurring ally. Tails also appears in his own spin-off series, comic books, cartoons, and films. He is the second character to consistently appear by Sonic's side in the series. The name "Miles Prower" is a pun on "miles per hour", a reference to Sonic's famed speed. Tails is a two-tailed anthropomorphic yellow fox, hence the nickname. A mechanical genius and skilled pilot, he can fly by spinning his tails like a helicopter rotor and can be seen flying in multiple games and TV shows created by SEGA. He debuted with the release of the 8-bit version of Sonic the Hedgehog 2 in October 1992. In the mid-1990s, he was featured as the main character in a number of spinoff games: Tails and the Music Maker for the Sega Pico, and Tails Adventure and Tails' Skypatrol for the Game Gear. Tails was rated the third-most-popular character in the franchise, behind Sonic and Shadow, in an official poll from Sega in 2009.

Iago PUC's ideas

• Tails appears in Justice League: Rings of the Force, voiced by Tara Strong.
• Tails appears as a guest character in Marvel's Spider-Man: Webbed Champion, with Colleen O'Shaughnessey reprising her role. He appears as one of the supporting crossover heroes (along with Sonic and the rest of the Freedom Fighters) in the show's multi-part finale "Legendary Universes". As in the 1993-1995 Sonic the Hedgehog animated series, Tails is also depicted as Sally Acorn's protégé, but with his genius intellect and potential from the games. First appearing in "Part 3: Unlimited Speed", he and his fellow Freedom Fighters help Spider-Man and his friends solve the origins of Jarvis's robot body while they contend with both EggRobo, who had taken over a prototype of Otto Octavius's tentacle harness, and Dr. Robotnik. He genuinely befriends his partner Kevin Walker / American Knight, and the two are shown impressing each other with their talents in science and technology. Later in "Part 6: Ultimate Alliance, Tails and the Freedom Fighters are among the heroes who join Spider-Man and his friends as well as the Avengers in the battle against the Regent and his army of insectoids from the Negative Zone. During the battle, Tails and the geniuses of the Legendary Universes (Ratchet, BB-8, and Donatello) help Anya Corazon/Spider-Girl and Hank McCoy / Beast reach Alchemax's teleportation devices and find a way to send the Regent's army back to the Negative Zone. At the moment, Anya voices her appreciation for Tails, telling him that he would make a fine scientific contribution if he was a student at Horizon High School (and if the school ever accepted other kinds of students and teachers besides humans). By the end of the episode, as he and his fellow Freedom Fighters leave home, Tails bids a friendly farewell to Kevin with a fist bump before getting kisses from Gwen Stacy and Anya on his cheeks, and a handshake with Beast.
