Crystal Hunter

Crystal Hunter (クリスタルハンター) is the weapon that X obtains from Crystal Snail in Mega Man X2. It fires a small crystalline blast, which can encase enemies in crystal. These crystals can then be used as stepping stones. When fully charged, this weapon releases a floating pod which temporarily slows time and distorts the surrounding area. While usually only effective against minor enemies, the Crystal Hunter is also Overdrive Ostrich's weakness
