Additionally, some Generators spread goop to the surrounding area, preventing it from being cleaned permanently until the Gatekeeper is defeated; however, despite their name, not all Generators do this. Initially, Gatekeepers hide within the Generator, emerging only when the Generator is sprayed with [[water]]. Once a Gatekeeper has emerged, it sways back and forth while opening and closing its mouth. To defeat it, [[Mario]] must use [[F.L.U.D.D.|FLUDD]] to spray water into its open mouth some number of times. If Mario sprays one while its mouth is closed, it merely shrugs the attack off. If not dealt damage for long enough, it retreats back into its Generator. In all their appearances, structures are submerged in the goop beneath them, and the Gatekeeper must be defeated to release them. | ||
There are five fights against Gatekeepers in the game. The fights vary in terms of the Gatekeeper's color (which changes to match the surrounding goop), the number of sprays necessary to defeat the Gatekeeper, and additional behaviors. | There are five fights against Gatekeepers in the game.
