A Buckot (ボトロン, Botron) is an enemy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl's Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary. Buckots make their first appearance at The Ruined Zoo, attacking Lucas, who is attempting to escape Porky.

Enemy description[edit]

A Buckot is a small robotic enemy whose whole body consists of a spherical head, thin arms with thick gloves, a face like a Primid's, and a propeller helmet which it uses to fly around. It attacks by dropping red-hot metal bricks from a bucket directly onto the player.

Name origin[edit]

Buckot's name is a portmanteau of the words bucket and hot, given that it uses a bucket to drop red-hot chunks of metal on the player. It might also be a portmanteau of the words bucket and bot, since it's a robotic enemy.

Moveset[edit]

Notes: The "d" below is a multiplier based on the difficulty value. Final damage is rounded down to the nearest whole number. The move names are fan-made in the absence of an official source.
Name Damage Description
Chunks 1 + 1.2d (4 cluster)
1 + 1.6d (5 cluster)
6 + 2.6d (large chunks)
Buckot hovers over the player and drops scalding metal chunks on them. There is a 45/95 chance for the 4 cluster of chunks, 40/95 for the 5 cluster, and 10/95 chance for the large chunks. The smaller chunks have very little knockback and deal 10% additional shield damage. The large chunks do moderate knockback and 20% shield damage. If the chunks hit the ground, there is a 3% chance to spawn a Ray Gun, Super Scope, or Maxim Tomato.
Careening 6 - 0.2d

Trophy[edit]

Buckot's trophy in Brawl
Buckot
An enemy with arms and a propeller attached to its head that it uses to...um...propel itself through the sky. It has a justified reputation as a dangerous dude with a bucket filled with red-hot iron chunks for dumping on folks. Some say that the phrase "Drop it like it's hot!" came from Buckot's firm belief in dropping scalding metal chunks. Good thing it has thick gloves.
