Is a member of the Freedom Fighters, a group that could potencially single-handily conquer their world like their Moebius twins.

Intelligence: Above Average generally, at least Gifted in Combat (In the beginning of his tenure as a Freedom Fighter, Antoine was clumsy and unskilled in combat due to his cowardly nature. But as time progressed, he developed both adept fighting skills and a degree of tactical wit which have continuously improved over time. As a great practitioner of swordsmanship, he excels with the use of his personal saber and can utilize other weapons when needed. Antoine is also particularly skilled in hand-to-hand combat, having some formal military training from his father and having received additional training from Bunnie D'Coolette, comparable to his Moebius Twin, who was able to, albeit very briefly, to fight enraged Sonic. He is known to favor tactical analysis in battle; demonstrated best when he fought only to disarm his opponent when battling Sonic on Moebius with the belief that if Evil Sonic died, he would be trapped there. His abilities in the field earned him the rank of Commander in the Royal Army despite having originally been just a civilian wearing his father's old uniform. Additionally, Antoine is bilingual and is a seasoned pilot)
Weaknesses: Was initially prone to cowardice, but this has been (mostly) resolved
