Miles Prower (nicknamed Tails by Sonic) is an 8 year-old twin-tailed fox that first appeared in Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and reappeared in almost every Sonic game since. He has also starred in his own games including Tails' Adventure, Tails' Skypatrol and Tails and the Music Maker.
During his youth, Tails was frequently bullied because of his two tails. However, one day, he met Sonic the Hedgehog and was inspired by him running like the wind. He started following Sonic on his adventures and became his best friend and sidekick ever since. Tails has a genius-level intellect and is a natural prodigy when it comes to mechanics. He is also an aerial pilot and he often uses Sonic's plane, called the Tornado. He was originally very timid, but after meeting Sonic, he has become brave and independent.
In M.U.G.E.N, Tails has been made by various creators, with varying sprites and gameplay depending on the creator. The most known versions are MUGENHunter's versions. His second version has been edited by Shiruzato.
MUGENHunter's second version
Like all of MUGENHunter's characters, Tails uses custom sprites and The King of Fighters-styled gameplay. His button layout is very unusual. His damage output is low, but his Hypers hit very hard. He also has the ability to fly, like in the source games, though he can't fly for too long.
BowserKoopa's version
Being a fox cub, Tails isn't quite known for being powerful. That being said, this version manages to counterbalance that with unmatched comboability, with most moves smoothly comboing into each other. This version takes influence from Sonic Battle, but seems to be custom, with the creator drawing parallels between this game and Tatsunoko vs Capcom.
