Could Flash catch Speedy Gonzales or the Roadrunner if he needed to in order to save the universe?
>>93758422
Wally and Barry could. Not jay.
>>93758422
Toon force > speed force
>>93758462
Roadrunner and Speedy have escapability as a power too though not just speed
>>93758529
Wouldn't work on barry then.
Rebirth Zoom would eat them all.
>>93758422
Speedy? Sure. But the roadrunner is always at least as fast as whatever is chasing it, so it's impossible to catch with speed alone.

No. Toon Force is op.

This.
Trying to catch roadrunner is like trying to beat Saitama in a fist fight. Can't be done when plot armor is a thing.
The roadrunner isn't necessarily the fastest thing in the universe, the Flash could beat the Roadrunner in any and every race. But he can't CATCH the roadrunner because the world doesn't work like that.

In his universe sure.
Anyway he got caught.

There was an entire short where they did nothing but break rule four.

OK but the rules do not state this >>93759373 - In fact, "Da Rulez" don't technically address the Road Runner's speed at all, or whether or not he can be caught, or whether or not he will always outrace what ever is trying to catch him.

Looking back over the rules it's less about what the Roadrunner can or cannot do, but what happens with Wile E. Coyotes. I'll revise my answer.
Toon Force is an implicit assumption in this conversation. No one here is even pretending that we are applying DCU rules to cartoon characters, the powers of cartoon characters are so reality warping that even if Roadrunner was moved the DCU we assume it's still Toon World rules. As such, Flash could only catch the bastard on accident (hubris powers the bird) and Roadrunner is free at the end of the story.
The fucker is less a character and more a force of nature. You can't stop a force of nature.
How would Wally's speed thief powers work against Toon Force? Because they're pretty funny when used against regular villains.
