The next room is wide and octagonal in shape. Before long,Hooplagoon emerges from the background - now sporting a new color scheme and a scuba mask - and begins his rematch. Hooplagoon attacks by firing lasers from prongs between his plates while drifting around the room. To defeat him, Kirby must shatter each of his external plates. Each time a plate is broken, Hooplagoon grows in size and moves faster, while droppingPoint Stars. Three of the plates can be destroyed using simpleTouch Dashes, but the final plate is made of metal, requiring aStar Dash to break. Once Hooplagoon is defeated, Kirby and Elline have a victory dance, then move on toRed Volcano.
