Minokichi (ミノキチ?) is an enemy that appears exclusively in the Tails' Skypatrol video game, available for the Sega Game Gear.
Appearance[]
Based on bagworms, Minokichis are mostly green and light-brown robotic bagworms. Their head is black, and they hang from a white silk thread on the ceiling.
Overview[]
A Minokichi suspends itself from the ceiling until the player gets close. When this happens, the Minokichi will drop down from the ceiling to attack the player. When destroyed, they grant four hundred points.
Trivia[]
- The Minokichis' name is derived from "Minomushi", which is Japanese for "bagworm".
- Despite the reputation Tails' Skypatrol has received, Sonic Tweet had made cards with character sprites from Tails Skypatrol. Minokichi was on one of the cards.
