'''Mr. Patch''' is the third boss of ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'' who is fought a large tent of [[Witchyworld]]. He also appeared as a boss in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', being featured in [[Nutty Acres]] and, to an extent, [[Banjoland]]. In both of the games his weakness lies in his patches.
'''Mr. Patch''', subtitled "Strange Wobbly Inflatable Thing," is a character in the ''[[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Banjo-Kazooie]]'' series. He is a large inflatable dinosaur residing in [[Witchyworld]]'s central attraction, the [[Big Top]].


==Physical characteristics==
==History==
Mr. Patch is a large inflatable dinosaur, specifically a T-Rex. He is crafted of shiny yellow and green fabric. His body is ridden with holes that have been covered up and reinforced by colorful patches (his blatant weakness). He has bright red eyes and large ridges running across his back and a mouth full of white, blunt teeth. As evidenced by his behavior in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', he generally doesn't accept humor.
===''Banjo-Tooie''===
In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', Mr. Patch is encountered in Witchyworld, inside the Big Top which is only accessible after giving enough [[ticket]]s to [[Conga]]. Mr. Patch is initially confused for a seat by [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]], but is quickly revealed to be alive. While he was reluctant to fight the duo at the start, he eventually decides to do so after Kazooie continuously teases him, saying he was smaller than "[[Klungo|that freak at the start of the game]]." This causes him to inflate himself to much bigger proportions, starting the battle.  


In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', Mr. Patch's design was updated to give him a slightly more menacing appearance and to match the more angular art style of the game. In addition to the slight changes made to his body structure, minor details were added, such as yellow eyelids, claws on his hands and feet, and stitches running across parts of his body. The placement of many of his patches have changed, as has the location of his plug, which has been moved from in between his legs to the center of his chest.
To defeat Mr. Patch, Banjo and Kazooie must burst all of his twelve patches with [[Grenade Egg]]s. After the duo's first attack hits him, a [[Flight Pad]] will appear, allowing them to continue the battle flying and using the [[Airborn Egg Aiming]] or the [[Beak Bomb]] move. A [[boxing glove]] will be summoned by Mr. Patch as a way to prevent the two to keep shooting him from the ground. Exploding beach balls that are nearly impossible to dodge on the ground will also be shot from his mouth. Mr. Patch gets smaller and faster after every hit taken, increasing the difficulty of the fight as aiming will become harder.


==Games==
When all patches have been popped, Mr. Patch will completely deflate and fly away, leaving a [[Jiggy]] behind.
===''Banjo-Tooie''===
Mr. Patch is found inside of the [[Big Top]] tent in [[Witchyworld]], which can only be accessed by collecting enough [[Ticket|admission tickets]] and giving them to the ticket master, [[Conga]]. After entering, the duo initially confuse him for a rather uncomfortable seat, but he then comes alive. He is reluctant to fight but Kazooie stubbornly instigates him and insults his size, calling him smaller than "[[Klungo|that freak at the start of the game]]". Mr. Patch calls her bluff however and inflates himself to epic proportions and challenges the two to a fight. If the player undergoes a rematch, he reiterates that he is not violent and would prefer not fighting them again, only for Kazooie to taunt him by claiming that he is full of hot air. Mr. Patch concedes her point about him being full of hot air, but nonetheless desides that she needs to be taught another lesson.


To defeat him, they must pop all twelve of his patches by shooting them with [[Grenade Egg]]s. After they land the first hit, they must immediately take to the air and continue the battle using [[Airborne Egg Aiming]], as Mr. Patch summons an impervious red [[Boxing Gloves|boxing glove]] which patrols the ground. Mr. Patch himself will also attack by shooting exploding beach balls from his mouth (which become near impossible to dodge when on the ground). After each hit, he gets smaller and faster, thus making him much harder to hit. The player can also burst his patches using the [[Beak Bomb]] attack. [[Red Feathers]] and Grenade Eggs can be found besides the [[Flight Pad]]s on the ground, allowing the duo to replenish their supply whenever necessary. However the [[Beak Bomb]] will not work.
===''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts''===
[[File:Metal Mr Patch NnB.jpg|thumb|170px|Metal Mr. Patch, as he appears in Banjoland.]]
In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', Mr. Patch returns as boss, being featured in both Act 5 of [[Nutty Acres]] and Act 6 of [[Banjoland]]. He was apparently re-inflated by [[Gruntilda]] in an attempt to defeat Banjo and Kazooie.


After all twelve patches have been disposed of Mr. Patch will deflate completely and fly out of sight, leaving Banjo and Kazooie with a [[Jiggy]].
Mr. Patch is first found in the mission "Old Dog, New Tricks" in the fifth Act of Nutty Acres. It starts with [[Humba Wumba]] telling the duo that the island was "all peaceful" that day, but she then suddenly "senses an approaching shadow" that turns out to be Mr. Patch, blocking the sunlight high above the farm. To prevent the plants withering, Banjo and Kazooie must quickly defeat the boss. While Mr. Patch himself is chained to the ground and can't damage the vehicle, [[Gruntbot]]s on planes will appear to try preventing his loss. Much like in his previous appearance, his patches need to be shot in order to win, he gets smaller everytime a patch is popped and when defeated, he will deflate and fly off.


===''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts''===
Mr. Patch is also a boss in the mission "Even Older Dog, Newer Tricks" in the sixth Act of Banjoland, but this time made of metal. In it, [[Captain Blubber]] warns the duo that an "Air-Filled Sea Beast(TM)" invaded the museum through through the [[Loggo]] exhibit and needs to be defeated. Due to Mr. Patch having a new metal body, the only way to defeat him is by pushing him into the [[Cactus of Strength]].
[[File:Metal Mr Patch NnB.jpg|thumb|170px|Metal Mr. Patch, as he appears in [[Banjoland]].]]
Mr. Patch is first encountered in act 5 of [[Nutty Acres]], in the mission "Old Dog, New Tricks", apparently being re-inflated by Grunty to cause trouble. [[Humba Wumba|Humba]] comments that Nutty Acres has been peaceful recently, but she suddenly has a premonition and "senses an approaching shadow". Sure enough, Mr. Patch appears on the horizon, and his shadow is keeping sunlight from reaching the coconuts plants below, meaning that the duo must act fast and defeat him before the plants wither too much and die. He is chained to the ground and is unable to actually attack, although halfway through the mission a swarm of [[Gruntbot]]s in bi-planes appear to attack and distract the player. Like the previous game, Banjo and Kazooie must shoot all of the patches scattered around his body to rid the island of his presence. Also adding to the hysteria of the battle, Mr. Patch slightly shrinks in size each time a patch is destroyed.


Upon being defeated, a short cutscene is triggered where Mr. Patch deflates completely and flies off just like he did in ''Banjo-Tooie''.
Additionally, pictures of Mr. Patch can be seen in the walls of Banjoland alongside other notable characters of the series.


Mr. Patch appears once again as a boss in act 6 of [[Banjoland]]. Except this time, his skin has been given a strong, metal hide and he no longer has any patches. He is known simply as "Metal Mr. Patch", and normal attacks can't pierce through his new metal body. Instead, Banjo and Kazooie must find another way to damage him, in this case by leading him to the [[Cactus of Strength]].
