Arriving in the Battle Fortress, the Great Battle Kukku lead a massive battalion through Poloy Forest, destroying and setting everything ablaze while retrieving the Chaos Emeralds. Exhilarated by his impending victory, the Great Battle Kukku ordered his soldiers to find the last remaining Emeralds.[2]
From that point however, Great Battle Kukku's operations came to a halt when Tails began fighting the Battle Kukku Empire. When the Battle Fortress had re-launched from its concealed position, the Great Battle Kukku faced Tails in combat when he infiltrated the fortress. In the insuring fight, the Great Battle Kukku was seemingly destroyed and his fortress crashed while Tails escaped.
Personality
The Great Battle Kukku is a maniacal dictator-like figure and a master of evil.[2] When speaking, he has a tendency to end his sentences by crowing like a rooster.[2]
Powers and abilities

Battle
The Great Battle Kukku is the final boss of Tails Adventure. He is fought at the end of Battle Fortress 2 right after defeating Battle Kukku XVI.
Boss guide
At the beginning of the battle, the Great Battle Kukku will walk back and forth in the right side of the arena, flinging bombs in Tails' general direction. Though this attack can be avoided when walking on the ground by dodging the bombs, the player can avoid the attack by flying with Tails directly above the Great Battle Kukku, from where the player can at the same time drop bombs on the Great Battle Kukku. After having taken enough damage, the Great Battle Kukku will start moving across the entire arena, crouching down and rolling bombs along the floor when Tails is down low, which can be dodged by flying above the ground, and spraying them up high like a fountain when Tails is flying above, which can be dodged by flying directly above this boss. Also, if the player gets too close to the Great Battle Kukku, he will pick Tails and throw him across the room. After being hit fifteen times, the Great Battle Kukku will be defeated, and the player will have cleared this boss battle.
In other media
Archie Comics
The Grand Battle Kukku VX, from Sonic Universe #20.
In the Archie Comics' Sonic the Hedgehog comic books and spin-off comics, the Great Battle Kukku is referred to as Grand Battle Kukku XV. In this media, he was the fifteenth member of the Battle Kukkus and the leader of the Battle Bird Armada. Believing his people are destined for dominance, he searched for Babylon Garden in order to obtain control over Mobius. After a skirmish with the Knothole Freedom Fighters, the Battle Lord forced the Babylon Rogues to help recover Babylon Garden. However, his plans were ruined by Sonic who made Babylon Garden crash along with the Battle Bird Armada's base, and the Battle Lord swore vengeance.
After the timeline was rebooted by the Super Genesis Wave, the Great Battle Kukku became known as Battle Lord Kukku XV, or the Battle Lord for short, and became an Egg Boss of the Eggman Empire.
Trivia
- His name was mistranslated as the Great Badoru Kukku in the English Sonic Gems Collection manual, and it was also shortened to simply Kukku.[4] Similar to "Kokko Island" (a name also properly retranslated prior in Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut), this may be because his real name was unmentioned in the localized manual of Tails Adventure.
