When the [[Kong]]s enter inside the summit of Autumn Heights, they see a group of Hootzes gather around Skowl, who is hidden in the shadows. After a Hootz throws a banana on a stone slab, Skowl smashes it with his hammer. The Kongs react by yelling in shock, which gains the attention of Skowl and the Hootzes. Skowl reveals himself and angrily hoots at the Kongs. The Kongs jump onto the arena and smash the slab as the Hootz fly away, thus triggering the start of the boss fight.

Initially, Skowl's attacks are limited to shooting a wide fan of feather missiles and summoning eggs down onto the arena. These eggs damage the Kongs if they land on them. Some of these eggs contain [[Hootz]]es, which can be jumped on and used as projectiles against Skowl. Skowl also turns his wings to ice and sends out [[Icy Spike Ball| Ice Spike Balls]] to the opposite end of the platform. The icy spike balls continues to roll in a direction until falling off the platform. At some points of the battle, Skowl will descend from the air from one side of the arena and try to ram into the Kongs.

Some of these eggs contain [[Hootz]]es, which can be jumped on and used as projectiles against Skowl. Skowl also turns his wings to ice and sends out spiked [[Icy Spike Ball|chunks of ice]] to the opposite end of the platform. The chunk of ice continues to roll in a direction until falling off the platform. At some points of the battle, Skowl will descend from the air from one side of the arena and try to ram into the Kongs.


In the later phases of the battle, each in a different area of the boss level, Skowl uses more attacks. This includes creating a windstorm by flapping his wings, shooting sets of feather projectiles and calling in fleets of Hootzes wearing horned helmets to swoop onto the platform at the Kongs while still using some of his previous attacks. Near the end of the battle, Skowl sends large eggs from the sky onto the arena, each one containing three Hootzes, and Skowl appearing inside the fifth large egg.
