The Blinking Bonecrusher is a species of eyebulb in Pikmin: Decayed Leaf. The eyebulb is one of the most unnerving bosses, similar to the Demon’s Claw or Venowraith. The creature has the skull of a cow, which has a large nose ring in its nostril. Two large golden rings are hung on each horn. Most unnervingly, two human-like eyeballs inhabit the sockets of the cow skull. A large, human spine extends downwards from the skull, floating alongside it. There are no arm bones, but two large, human skeleton hands with extremely sharp finger bones float in front of the boss. The boss is surrounded by a barely noticeable, gray mist.
The Blinking Bonecrusher can be found completely idle, resembling just a large cow skull at first. But when approached, it will begin to shake violently. The eyeballs will suddenly pop inside the skull, and the entire skeletal structure of the beast will erupt upwards and form together, initiating the boss fight. The Blinking Bonecrusher has a few attacks at its disposal. Its main attack is slamming its large hand into the ground to crush Pikmin. It will slam one hand into the ground, and both hands when it’s low on health. Another attack is breathing a massive cloud of fire, which can ignite Pikmin caught by the flames. The boss will even spit out pools of lava when at low health. Its third attack is firing rays of light from its fingertips. The rays of light will penetrate the ground in a straight line but will follow more complex patterns at lower health. The rays of light can instantly incinerate any Pikmin it touches. Its final, and most deadly attack is firing a massive beam of light from its eyes directly at its attackers, which is done after a short preparation. The attack is extremely devastating, as it has the potential to kill all Pikmin at once.
The Blinking Bonecrusher cannot be damaged by any Pikmin at first. However, numerous mirrors are set up around the boss. When the boss begins to charge up its beam attack, run behind the mirror. When the Bonecrusher fires the beam, it will deflect back at the boss and knock its skull off its body and to the ground. This allows a chance to attack the skull for a short time, but the Bonecrusher will begin to slurp up nearby Pikmin with its unnervingly long and sharp tongue. Once destroyed, the Bonecrusher’s body will suddenly burst apart and explode, leaving only the skull to be collected. Defeating a Blinking Bonecrusher for the first time will grant the “Spawn of Nebula” achievement.
In Overlord mode, the attacks of the Blinking Bonecrusher are deadlier. Its fire-breathing attack has a fifty-percent chance of becoming blue fire, giving it the ability to instantly kill non-flame-resistant Pikmin. Its finger beam attack will leave small trails of fire when it digs into the ground. The fist-slamming attack will leave small pools of mud for a short time. Lastly, the boss gains a new attack, in which it will breathe a large gust of gloom that covers half of its arena.
Notes
Data file #1: The Blinking Bonecrusher can be hurt by its own beam; try standing behind a mirror.- Data file #2: The Blinking Bonecrusher is extremely dangerous. Be ready for anything.
- Data file #3 (Overlord mode): Watch out for the deadly gloom breath of the Blinking Bonecrusher! It engulfs half of the arena!
Olimar's notes
- “What is this thing? This beast is horrifying! I don’t know where it came from, but it doesn’t seem to feed or sleep. It kills for pleasure. This creature is a natural psychopath!! I don’t know how it came to be, so I’m assuming it’s yet another supernatural phenomenon that’s found on this planet. The skeleton this... thing inhabits is worse. It’s some form of fused mutation of a primate and tauras species. It’s unnatural... I hope to never encounter this beast again.”
Louie's notes
- “Do NOT eat.”
President’s notes
- “...no comment...”
Overlord’s thoughts
- “This horrific anomaly was a work of Nebula. I just hope Olimar took out all of the Bonecrushers on this planet, I’d hate to think that one is still out there.”
