Enemies

Minibosses

Bit & Byte and Vile

After the 2nd main Maverick has been defeated, Bit, Byte and Vile Mk-II spread out and can be encountered as minibosses in the Maverick stages. Bit, and later Byte, will appear in a designated room in a random stage and cannot be avoided, whereas Vile appears in his own sub-stage to be accessed via hidden teleporter, which can appear either in Volt Catfish's, Crush Crawfish's or Blizzard Buffalo's stage.

Using a weakness to land the final hit on any of these minibosses triggers their destruction and can prevent them from reappearing in upgraded boss forms in Dr. Doppler's fortress: If both Bit and Byte have been destroyed, the Godkarmachine O Inary boss is replaced with the Press Disposer, while Vile's destruction leads to the Goliath boss being replaced with Volt Kurageil, as well as Dr. Doppler stage 2 being drastically altered.

Other Bosses

Name	Sprite	Description	Stage	Weakness
Maoh the Giant			Hunter Base	N/A
Press Disposer		This boss is only fought if both Bit and Byte were destroyed with a weakness in their miniboss fights; otherwise, Godkarmachine O Inary will replace it.	Doppler Stage A	Ray Splasher
				Tornado Fang
Godkarmachine O Inary		This boss is only fought if either Bit or Byte was *not* destroyed with a weakness in his miniboss fight; otherwise, the Press Disposer will replace it.	Doppler Stage A	Ray Splasher
Volt Kurageil		This boss is only fought if Vile was destroyed with a weakness in Vile Stage; otherwise, the Goliath will replace it.	Doppler Stage B	Frost Shield
				Triad Thunder
Goliath		A powerful Ride Armor piloted by Vile. The fight is very similar to Vile Mk-II's first phase in his own stage, but the arena is wider and the boss will create temporary walls that X can climb on. This boss is only fought if Vile was *not* destroyed with a weakness in his own stage; otherwise, Volt Kurageil will replace it.	Doppler Stage B	Parasitic Bomb
				Tornado Fang
Dr. Doppler			Doppler Stage C	Acid Burst
Sigma			Doppler Stage D	Frost Shield
				Spinning Blade
Kaiser Sigma		Sigma's second form can only be harmed with charged X-Buster shots (or the Z-Saber if it has been unlocked).	Doppler Stage D	X-Buster (charged)
Sigma Virus		Sigma's true form floats upwards through a vertical shaft and causes lava to rise up from the bottom. It cannot be harmed and must simply be chased to the top, though it will try to ram into X to make him fall into the lava.	Doppler Stage D	N/A
