Supporter



"I collected some data on Supporters. While they are not great fighters, they are expert healers! Moreover, even if their weapons don't deal much damage, they're prone to trigger Super Effects. Beware!"

Supporters are Rabbid enemies in Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, identifiable by their backpacks topped with a red siren. As their name implies, they specialize in supporting their teammates by healing them, however they are also able to heal themselves. They can also throw bombs that ignore cover bonuses, destroy Mega Blocks, and although their weapons don't cause large amounts of damage, they do have a high chance to inflict status effects on any character caught in the blast.

The introductory cutscene starts with a Supporter using a bomb to attack a Ziggy, causing the Ziggy to become unconscious. The Supporter then starts laughing, followed by him taking off his backpack and pressing the heart button on it. The Ziggy then gets healed and gives a thumbs up to the Supporter, with the Supporter taking a bow, and then poses toward the player, and the introductory tagline appears beneath him.

Variants
There are three Supporter variants, one for each area apart from Ancient Gardens.
 * Sherbet Supporter: Encountered in Sherbet Desert, this Supporter has 165 HP. It wears a shell-like backpack, a furry collar, and a bodysuit resembling a cactus. Sherbet Supporters can deduct 32 HP with a standard attack. On a critical, the bombs deduct 35 HP instead and inflict Burn on the target.
 * Spooky Supporter: Encountered in Spooky Trails, this 250 HP Supporter appears to be undead, with a pale body, glowing blue eyes, and a melting candle on its head. Spooky Supporters can deduct 42 HP with a standard attack. On a critical, the bombs deduct 46 HP and inflict Freeze on the target.
 * Lava Supporter: The final Supporter variant is encountered in the Lava Pits, with a charred appearance, glowing orange eyes, a Bowser Jr. bandanna on its chest, and 375 HP. Lava Supporters can deduct 54 HP with a standard attack. On a critical, the bombs deduct 59 HP and inflict Vamp on the target.
