Kani Pearl

Kani Pearl
Game: [[Sonic Labyrinth]][[Category:Sonic Labyrinth bosses]]
Level: [[Labyrinth of the Sea]]
Hits to defeat: 5

The second boss in Sonic Labyrinth, Kani Pearl awaits Sonic at the bottom of a long, ring-filled slope in Act 4 of Labyrinth of the Sea. (Kani is Japanese for "crab".)

The boss arena here is a sloping E-shape. Sonic is first beset by waves of minature crab badniks crawling down the inclines, but they are easy enough to avoid simply by spin dashing all over the place. When Kani Pearl finally materialises, the mechanical crustacean (in true crabby fashion) simply scuttles sideways back and forth along the upper level. Impervious to damage while its shell is closed, the boss should be attacked when it flips open its armour to fire a pearly bullet in Sonic's direction. 5 hits blows it up and Sonic can grab the Chaos Emerald.
