Yellow Brontes

Yellow Brontes (イエロー・ブロンテス) is a giant Mechaniloid sub-boss from Earthrock Trilobyte's Metal Valley stage in Mega Man X8.

It follows the player in the beginning of the stage, attacking with lasers and punches. After reaching a cliff, the player must climb it to activate a crane above to hit its head several times. After a couple of hits, it will run away. At this time, you can shoot it to collect a lot of Red Metals. After, chasing it back through the stage, it will retreat into a warehouse where the player must confront it again. It stands in the background, once again attacking with lasers and punches, and will also try to grab the player. There are two switches in the room that the player must activate (each one on opposite sides of the room), in order to operate another crane to strike it in the head several times to bring it down.

Trivia

 * A deactivated Yellow Brontes can be seen in the warehouse to the left of the one fought by the player when using the small elevator.
