"Mr Batty Twist"

Mr. Batty is an enemy in Mother 3, first encountered in Chapter 1. It is often the first enemy in the game after the required Mole Cricket battle, and therefore often the first enemy fought as Flint. After the end of Chapter 3, they can only be encountered in the cave near Aeolia's house on Mt. Oriander, with its appearance in the Sunshine Forest being replaced by a Slitherhen. Similarly to their appearance in EarthBound, they often size up the situation, making them feel strange. In battle, they are weak to PK Fire, Brainshock, and bombs.
