Vase-Based

Vase-Based is an enemy found in the game Virtual Boy Wario Land. It is a small but aggressive, ghostly creature with a large head and a sharp tail. The species hold two spears in either hand, which are both identical and appear to be very similar to its tail. Vase-Based is encountered in the tenth level of the game, in an enclosed room where a Vase is found. Whenever a Vase is tipped to the side by Wario, a Vase-Based is released and will begin to jump around the room, attempting to harm Wario with its three spears if it gets the chance. Wario can stun a Vase-Based by jumping on the unprotected part of the creature’s head, which will cause it to flip over and fall to the ground. The three spears become temporarily blunt in this state, leaving the Vase-Based completely defenseless until it regains consciousness. When stunned, Wario can defeat it for good by performing a Ground Pound to the head or a Dash Attack to the side. Wario can also pick up and throw the Vase-Based. Throwing it at a wall will defeat it, as will throwing it back at the Vase itself. This won’t defeat the Vase, however.
