Gulpfer

Gulpfer (ガルプファー), called Blowfish in Mega Man X: Command Mission, are bizarre fish enemies in the underwater sections of Mega Man X/Maverick Hunter X and Mega Man Xtreme 2. They create vortices to pull X in, and actually swallow him. He'll stay trapped in until he shoots his way out. Alternatively, X/Zero/Vile can also simply jump several times to break free.

The Garakuta Robot from Mega Man X2 uses parts of Gulpfers.
