Bosses& Big Baddies

Burtthe Bashful: The first boss you will come across.Collect eggs from the egg plant and shoot one at him. He willbounce around (you may have to get out of the way for this) andthen flicker. While he flickers he is invulnerable to allattacks. Do this six times and he will be destroyed

Salvothe Slime: The major boss of world one. If you have noeggs then a small slime will appear. Turn it into an egg andshoot it at him. He will get s maller and sprout lots of littl eslimes. Eat them and turn them into eggs (because they can hurtyou) and shoot them at him again. When he shivers your eggs won'thurt him and he CAN hurt you. Keep shooting eggs until he isreally tiny and he will pop.

BiggerBoo: The first boss of world 2. You can't hurt him whileyou are looking at him and he will only approach when you faceaway. Eat the swooper bats and shoot them at the wall oppositeBigger Boo. the egg should rebound and hit him square in theface. As Bigger Boo gets larger then it becomes harder to movearound but easier to hit him. Keep eating the Swoopers if you runout of eggs. After a few hits then BB will explode.

PottedGhost: To kill this ghost, hold the control pad right.You will start pushing the flower pot over the edge. If he spitsfire at you then move until it goes away and if he pushes youthen carry on holding Right on the co ntrol pad and you will startpushing him soon again. once he is over the edge he is finished.

PrinceFroggy: One of the fun bosses. Once he has eaten youthen you will need to eat the giant shyguys that fall from thetop. Turn them into eggs and shoot them at the epiglotis (danglything at the back of the throat.) The acid will start to fall. Toavoid this then stand EXACTLY in the centre and none of it willtouch you. After his stomach has turned dark crimson then onemore shot should make you pop out of his backside.

NavalPiranha: A very hard boss. Here are his attacks first.He headbutts the wall... just jump over him to avoid it, He alsomakes you think he is going to head butt the wall but actuallypulls back at the last minute. Jump and air kick to avoid it. Hespits Nipper spores. if you need eggs then let them turn intonippers and then eat them. He also, ra rely, uses his snake armsto attack. You might want to jump around to avoid this. Now foryour attacks. You get the eggs as mentioned above and stand onthe very edge of the platform facing the wall. Whenever he spitsnipper spores or looks up to scream then shoot an egg at the wallexactly level with the platform (like you learned earlier in thelevel) and the egg will skim across the water and hit NP directlyin the bulging blister. Three times and Naval will be finished.

MarchingMilde: This boss doesn't require any shooting oranything. Jump onto his head and butt slam. He will split intotwo. Butt slam them as well. Butt slam the next ones until thereis nothing left but little, regular Mildes. eat them or jump onthem to finish off this enemy.

Hookbillthe Koopa: To defeat this boss you need to jump on hisback while he is on his hands and feet to make him cough up eggs.Collect them and shoot them at his head to knock him onto hisback. Butt slam his belly and run or he will squash you with hisbouncing shell attack. Repeat two more times and he will be astomped Koopa.

Sluggythe Unshaven: Another hard boss. You need to shoot himin the heart but it is enveloped in the baddies slime. You needabout four eggs to get to it. But that isn't the hard bit... Youneed to collect a load of eggs, shoot through his slime andrepeat two more times BEFORE he pushes you over the edge to yourdoom. This is such a short amount of time that it becomes veryfrantic towards the end.

Raphaelthe Raven: A very fun boss. It takes place on PatchworkMoon. You need to stand on one of the stumps that are poking outof the moon and when Raphael is standing directly on the oppositeside you need to butt slam the post so it goes up RR's backside.The angrier he gets, the more he uses his electric attack. Juststay on one of the poking up stumps whenever you can and don'tlet him run into you and you will be safe. Three times and hewill be finished.

Tap-Tapthe Red Nose: Surprisingly, this boss is easy. He willfollow you around and is completely invulnerable to your attacksbut is extremely heavy. Get a full supply of eggs using the eggplants (if you are in a hurry then butt slam while the eggs areon screen) and head to the bottom floor and shoot them at thecoloured blocks on the ground. Once a load have been destroyedthen tap-Tap will usually fall into the lava himself. If not thena nice shot with an egg should finish him off.

BabyBowser: The hardest Boss (of course) his first attack iseasy though. He will leap into the air and attempt to butt slamyou. Move out of the way and jump over the ripple he ma kes in theground. Now do what he has just done. Butt slam the floor and tryto make the ripple hit him. If it does then you only have to dothis three times before he enters his second attack. On the roofof Bowser's immense fortress, miles away and yet coming closer iswhat I call 100 foot tall, city stomping, Baby Bowser. He spitshuge fireballs at you that can be easily avoided in mostsituations. Collect eggs from the balloons floating past andshoot them at his head. Because he is often so far away it isn'tthat simple. If he is really far away then shoot really high inthe screen, If he is about in the middle then shoot lower and ifhe is really close then you can shoot his head easily, but it'sbest not to let him get that close because once you have hit himthree times then he will make more holes in the ground and will runtowards you at all times!! Hit him another three times afterthat and he will perish and you have finished the levels (but notthe game yet.)

BIGBADDIES

Nep-e-nuts:This baddie is first seen on level 1.4. Shoot him in the mouthand he will hide in the lava (or water on level 3.7.) run past orhe will pop up and chase you.

Bertha:This baddie appears on level 3.7. It is a giant, scary fish thatcan swallow a dinosaur with a baby on it's back whole. An egg cantemporarily knock it out.

Chomp:Besides the Chomp Rock, this is one of the scariest enemies inthe game. In level 2 it tries to smash you through the floor, Insome levels it will chase you around... VERY FAST. There is noknown way to defeat these monsters, however, on Sluggy theunshaven's Fort, there is a Chain Chomp. You can kill it with aCloud icon or POW in your inventory.
