Porcupuffer (boss)

Porcupuffer is one of the bosses in Mario Pinball Land. It is found inside a shipwreck in the Frosty Frontier Stage and in the boss rematch room in the Fiery Stage. When hit by cannonball bombs, it inflates, leaving it vulnerable to Mario's pinball form. It mainly swims around the ship, but after enough time has passed, it extends the spikes on its body and homes in on Mario directly to knock him around the room. Every time it takes a hit, it summons two little puffers to help it attack (or a single new one if one has already been defeated). These foes can be defeated by flicking a single cannonball bomb at them with the flippers. After being defeated the first time, Porcupuffer leaves behind a Star Key.
