The '''Chemical Plant Zone Boss''', also known as the '''Mean Bean Machine''', is the second boss of ''[[Sonic Mania]]''. It is encountered at the end of [[Chemical Plant Zone (Sonic Mania)|Chemical Plant Zone]] Act 2.
 
 
 
== Defeat Strategy ==
 
This boss takes a radically different approach than other bosses in the game. Instead of fighting [[Dr. Eggman]] or one of his goons in a machine, you're going head-to-head with him in a match of ''[[Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine]]''!
 
 
 
The boss begins as soon as the player falls into the game area, losing any active super form in the process. The standard rules of ''[[sega:Puyo Puyo|Puyo Puyo]]'' apply here - the play area is a 6 x 12 grid. Various colors of Puyos will fall into the play area, and the player must place four identically-colored Puyos next to each other, causing them to disappear. Chain reactions will cause Garbage Puyos to fall onto the opponent's play area, which can only be cleared if an adjacent set of Puyos is cleared. A player loses when enough Puyos in the third column from the left pile up to the top of the play area, causing the loss of a life. The player must either last long enough until Eggman's play area is filled, or send enough garbage to Eggman's side and cause it to fill. As the rules here are the same as in the original ''Puyo Puyo''/''Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine'', offsetting and counterattacking are not possible. Fortunately, Eggman has weak player AI for this boss, so he shouldn't be difficult for most players to beat.
 
 
 
If the player collects enough medals from the [[Bonus Stage (Sonic Mania)|Bonus Stages]], they will unlock Mean Bean, which is a minigame based on this boss fight where the player plays a best-of-3 match against the computer or another player.
