Flasher mk.II

The Flasher mk.II is an enemy that appears in Sonic Mania. It is a mass-produced Badnik model created by Dr. Eggman.

Appearance
The Flasher mk.II is the successor to the Flasher Badnik from Sonic the Hedgehog 2, though it is quite different in appearance. The Flasher mk.II has a rotund navy body with a red face. It has two gray spring-like legs on either side of its body with yellow bases. At the top of its head is what is seemingly a lightbulb.

Overview
The Flasher mk.II appears in Act 1 and 2 of the Titanic Monarch Zone. Once it locates its target, it will use its legs to rotate its entire body to one end. When it reaches its target, the Flasher mk.II will charge up electricity in its bulb and dispense it, sending out a shockwave.

A simple Spin Attack will be enough to defeat this Badnik. Upon their destruction, they release an Animal.
