He also sucks as Eggman's rival as he does nothing to challenge Eggman as a character. Even in Starline's mini series, Eggman doesn't even consider Starline as someone who could go against him. Which gets into into the next problem. Flynn isn't great with making rivals.
While Starline is technically overpowered, he does nothing to challenge the heroes. He has all of these weird powers but still can get tripped up by a robot head screeching at him. Even the heroes consider him a joke in story.
While Mimic was subpar (albeit a diet Envy), Rough and Tumble are too incompetent to be proper threat or to even be good enough as fodder villains. Zavok while restricted by Sega, doesn't do much to have a presence other than monologue.
As for Starline...
It basically boils down to Flynn doesn't write villains well, doesn't understand how rivals work and sadly enough the main cast isn't developed enough to benefit from either.
Another idea I had in mind was Tails giving everyone their own Miles Electric so they can communicate with each other. Rouge decided to get close while Tails was showing her how it works. I don't think he minds it~

Here's our favorite couple out for a trip to the beach. Tails had to apply some sun tan lotion for Rogue so she could tan how she wanted. I don't think he minds~

Here's a piece of Tails waking up early to catch Rouge coming in from her late mission for GUN. Having a contractor for a partner can be tough.

While a lot people pair them so Tails can get with the hot girl, personally I think Tails could be a character than could get Rouge open up and be more willing to connect with others without snark. He's such a good boy he's disarming XD

I've always liked the idea of partners wearing each others clothing. Here's a comm I got of Rouge having a sleep over over at Tails's place.
Don't let the calm demeanor fool you. She spent 2 hours getting ready to pose like that.
More content for #Railsmonth soon!
Here we have Tails and Rouge take some time out to enjoy each other's company, taking turns who gets to be the little spoon~
