Battle[]
The Secret Plant Zone boss is the second boss of Sonic the Hedgehog Pocket Adventure. The player fights it at the end of Secret Plant Zone Act 2.
Boss guide[]
When the player arrives in an empty arena at the end of Secret Plant Zone Act 2, Dr. Robotnik will move in from the right side of the screen in his vehicle until he reaches the center of the arena. He will then deploy the red and blue platforms with spikes underneath them, which will be positioned on each side of Robotnik's vehicle, and initiate the boss battle. During the battle, Robotnik floats around the middle of the arena and fires showers of slow-moving red bullets in Sonic's general direction.
To defeat this boss, the player must hit Robotnik eight times. Since Robotnik cannot be reached from the ground, the player must use the spiked platforms that float next to Robotnik to jump from. This must be done all while avoiding the spikes on the bottom of the platforms and the red bullets that Robotnik fires. Also, once Sonic lands on a platform, it will begin to move around Robotnik in a downward spiral until it reaches the lowest point, while the other platform moves upwards above Robotnik in an opposite spiral. As such, the player has to be quick to jump between platforms and then towards the middle in order to reach Robotnik. Eight hits must be landed for this boss to be defeated.
After being defeated, the Secret Plant Zone boss will begin to blow up, before Dr. Robotnik yet again flees in his Egg Mobile, leaving the player to open the capsule and clear the Act.
