     [2] Raleigh ................................................ [froges]
Difficulty: Easy
Episode: #1, Tide of Terror
Level: The Eye of the Storm

In the first part of the fight, Raleigh is bloated up and is chasing you.
Stay about 5 steps or a platform ahead of him, but make sure you leave
room for when he deflates. At that point, quickly turn around and whack
him. Part two is just the same as part one, but with just one platform.
Not too hard, just make sure that he doesn't get you and that you get
him when he deflates. The next part is similar to part one, except when
Raleigh jumps on a platform, it will fall into the water. Make sure that
doesn't happen to you. The platform lights up red when he jumps on it,
except the time he deflates. Look at the lights to know when to jump back
and guarantee a hit. The last part is like part two in that you and
Raleigh are on the same platform the whole time. This time you have to
jump over his tongue like you're playing jump rope. After a couple jumps,
you'll get into a rhythm and it'll get easier. When he deflates, hit
him one more time to emerge victorious.

     [3] Muggshot ............................................... [baddog]
Difficulty: Medium
Episode: #2, Sunset Snake Eyes
Level: Last Call

The first two parts are nearly identical, so I'll group them into one. You'll
have to spin around all the mirrors by hitting them. Simple? Not if a crazy,
trigger-happy dog is running after you. Hide behind the objects around
everywhere or jump to avoid his gunfire. Ok, part three is evil. You have to
spire jump across a chandelier. Go towards a mirror and turn it quickly, then
head to the next one, as fast as possible. Remember to go QUICKLY so you
don't get shot, because I know you don't want to go through those other parts
again.

     [4] Mz. Ruby ............................................... [voodoo]
Difficulty: Medium ~ Hard
  ~ Note: If you have the PlayStation 2 version and have an ok sense of
    rhythm, this fight shouldn't be anything to worry about. Although, if
    you aren't very rhythmic or bought the PlayStation 3 version, bump the
    difficulty up a few notches. Much of this fight is based on rhythm, and
    in the PS3 version, the soundtrack has changed, consequently making
    this fight out of sync. Sorry!
Episode: #3, Vicious Voodoo
Level: A Deadly Dance

For the first part of the fight, just spire jump up to Mz. Ruby, not getting
smashed, and hit her when you get there. Parts two through four require a
series of button taps in rhythm to get to her. Once you get to her, whack
her. I'm sorry if you have trouble, this fight is very difficult!! Here are
the button taps:

Part 2: 
 - Square, Square, Square
 - Triangle, Triangle, Triangle
 - Circle, Circle, Circle
 - Square, Circle, Square
 - Circle, Square, Circle
 - Square, Triangle, Circle
 - Circle, Triangle, Square
 - Square
 - Triangle
 - Circle
 - X

Part 3: 
 - Square, Circle, X
 - Circle, Square, X
 - Square, Square, Triangle, Triangle, Circle, Circle, X
 - Circle, Circle, Triangle, Triangle, Square, Square, X
 - Square, Circle, Square
 - Triangle, X
 - Circle, Square, Circle

Part 4:
 - Square, Circle, Square
 - Circle, Square, Circle
 - Square, Circle, Square, Circle, Square, Circle, Triangle
 - Circle, Square, Circle, Square, Circle, Square, Triangle
 - Square, Triangle, Circle
 - Circle, Triangle, Square

Congrats if you made it this far, this is one of the harder
fights!

     [5] Panda King ............................................. [saymar]
Difficulty: Easy
Episode: Fire in the Sky
Level: Flame Fu!

Move to the right and forward to make it to Panda King while avoiding his
attacks. When you make it to him the first time, he only has one attack.
He will say "I reveal" and sweep some fire. Go back a little and jump to
avoid it. The second time he gets a new attack. He says "arms of thunder"
and then hits the ground in his least ferocious attack. Just jump. The
third time he gets his last attack added to his arsenal. He will say
something like "ooming chop" and chop you. Jump back quickly!! You'll
have to come back a few more times, but he won't have any more attacks.
I guess they decided we needed a breather from Mz. Ruby..

     [6] Clockwerk .............................................. [wierdo]
Difficulty: Hard
Episode: #5, The Cold Heart of Hate
Level: A Strange Reunion

In part one, shoot the glowing body parts after avoiding his shots. Don't
worry if you have trouble, it gets easy with practice. In part two, do
the same, but when the big rings come out, go through the middle of them.
In part three, use all of your thief skills to make it to Clockwerk's head.
Take your time, there's no rush. When you get to his head, KILL IT. Omigosh
this part is so fun!!! Anyway, after that you win. Woohoo. If you're having
trouble, just remember to play it safe.
