Mecha Kracko

From Kirby Wiki

Mecha Kracko

Mecha Kracko is a robotic version of Kracko, piloted by Doc. His first and so far only appearance is in Kirby Squeak Squad as the boss of Cushy Clouds.

For the first part of the fight, Mecha Kracko summons Waddle Dees, Starmen, and Waddle Doos, and performs Kracko's floor sweep move. After being damaged enough, the clouds stop emitting from its body temporarily, then sweeps through the clouds, rearranging them. Afterward, the fight continues. It can create a green, electrical force-field around its body, summon the aforementioned enemies, and change the placement of the platforms at will. He will also move across the top of the screen shooting three energy blasts down on the clouds.After landing the finishing blow, the machine explodes and Doc falls to the floor.

[edit] Trivia

  • Possibly to indicate that Doc is inside of him, Mecha Kracko has a green eye, as opposed to Kracko's blue eye.
  • Due to the fact that the fight takes place high up in the air on just a  few segmented clouds in the second half of the fight, the player can, without properly guarding, quite easily lose their ability by having it fall off the bottom of the screen,or even worse, being caught off guard by Mecha- Kracko's attacks and without having time to recover ,fall off the screen themselves resulting in an instant K.O. These frustrations can easily make it one of the hardest boss fights in the game,especially for new players, despite the fact as only being the 3rd Boss overall.
  • After gaining the ability to change the terrain if the player uses fire to burn away the clouds the clouds don't return forcing the player to continue the fight in the air
