Claymizer's first Sonic Edit Released

[DeluxeGamer705]

Remember Claymizer's first Sonic? The one made around 2007? Yes, it's that Sonic. It is overall a classic and is one of the first Mugen characters I've seen.
Looking back at it today, however, some say that this Sonic is not overall very good, despite having great sprites.
The biggest problem in him is that he had many severe balance problems and infinites, including non-fluid animations and being somewhat slow.
Due to how much of a classic this version is, I decided to edit him to fix those issues and make him faster, balanced and make him have more fluid animations, so he should be more enjoyable now, hopefully.

Like always, any feedback is welcome.

A small update has rolled out, nerfing the hitstun of his normals (mainly standing ones), and also tweaking the shading in crouching A's second sprite.

• [ADD] One more character-specific victory quote.
