Hunter Fang (ハンターファング Hantā Fangu) is the second form of the boss in stage six of Gradius Gaiden.
Description[]
He is a giant plant with extendable fangs, hence the name. When defeated, Hunter Fang will turn into a seed and then say "That doesn't hurt!" and the battle with Giga's Rose begins.
Attack pattern[]
Hunter Fang fights like Stinger Kid, but more aggressive, and with different attacks. Hunter Fang constantly fires out destroyable spores, and after a while, it rears back and fires it's fangs at you, but this also heavily exposes it's weak point. On loop two, when it fires it's fangs it also makes a tentacle come up under you, making you move a lot more. It's weak point has a moderate amount of health, making it a bit harder than Stinger Kid.
