Blaster (ポンポン, Pon-pon in Japan) is a badnik created by Doctor Robotnik. It can be found trundling around at Flying Battery Zone in Sonic & Knuckles.

DescriptionEdit

AppearanceEdit

They appear to be based on a Hercules beetle, although they resemble and behave like Blastoids at Hydrocity Zone.

Attack PatternEdit

Blasters fire small projectiles at the player from their horn-like cannon, which harmlessly bounce off any shield type. Blasters also move slowly which does make them less threat. A simple Spin Jump is enough to permanently dispatch them.
