Metal Shark Player

Metal Shark Player (Metalshark Prayer in Japan) is a hammerhead shark Maverick. He attacks with anchors. He was into "DNA Resurrection", which was taboo to the government, but Gate still used him.

Despite being a shark, he's weak against water (probably because he's made of metal and will rust), so use Meteor Rain (if X) or Ensuizan (if Zero).

Attacks:

 * Metal Shark Player, seeing as he is a shark, uses swimming as his main mode of transportation. He can either swim above the trash on the floor or below it.
 * If he is going to swim above, he will jump straight up just slightly, then swim along the floor. Once you have jumped over him, he will stop and return to being upright.
 * If he is going to swim below, he will jump diagonally up so he is above you, then dive. He will not yell anything when he does this (this is important). He will then swim below (you can see his fin, don't touch, you'll take damage), then he'll jump straight up out of it, almost to the top of the screen.


 * Metal Shark Player will jump diagonally up so he is above you, then dive into, but not below, the ground. He WILL yell when he does this (see, I told you it was important.)


 * Metal Shark Player will jump straight up about halfway, then throw a Metal Anchor towards your current position. These anchors will then bounce around the floor for a little while before exploding. They cannot be destroyed (except if you touch one), and he can have up to 2 on screen at once.


 * (1/2 health left) Metal Shark Player will jump towards either wall, then create a clone of a Maverick from a previous game. They are indestructible, and will attack you with their signature attacks.
 * Sting Chameleon will appear, lash his tongue at you, disappear, reappear, lash, etc.
 * Magna Centipede will appear on the ceiling, then fire sets of shuriken at you.
 * Blast Hornet will appear, then fire sets of 3 small hornets at you. You can destroy these. Destroying one of them will cause him to fire a 2nd set at you.
