Punk

Punk (パンク) is the second of the "Mega Man Killer" robots created by Dr. Wily to destroy Mega Man. He attacks using his Special Weapon, Screw Crusher, or turning into a spiked ball. He is a very tough Robot Master, as he causes a lot of damage and none of the weapons from Mega Man III besides the Mega Buster works on him; however, in Mega Man V his attacks and defenses are weaker. He reappears as one of the downloadable bosses in Mega Man 10, alongside Enker and Ballade.
