Background

Crystal Core is a crystalline core surrounded in ice. It appears in Gradius II as the boss of the crystal stage and in Gradius III as part of the boss rush. It is also a junked boss in Gradius Gaiden stage 2. This is one of the more interesting looking bosses.It has 4 Orange and Blue barriers and 1 Blue core

Attack Patterns

Crystal Core attacks by waving its tentacles while shooting blue small fireballs every 20% of a second from them and fires 2 Medium - Large standard Core defense lasers every second. The tentacles block all shots and cannot be destroyed. Eventually, Crystal Core will close up it's tentacles to shield the core and then release a volley of 14 lasers every 20% of a second while moving up or down, then resume normal attacking, in Gradius Gaiden the Core defense lasers are much more thinner.
