Swamp monster I

The Swamp Monster I was a hostile, mysterious creature encountered on planet Oozla. It was the first boss fought by Ratchet in the game Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando.

History
The Swamp Monster, in addition to various other beasts in the mucky habitat on Oozla, was responsible for the deaths of many Megacorp employees working at the local Megacorp outlet. The monster, living beneath the muck, kept itself largely hidden, attacking its prey with its two large tentacles from beneath. After eating a number of employees, the beast faced exploring Lombax, Ratchet, on a platform just outside the outlet, blocking his entrance. During their fight, the monster only revealed its eye stalk and twin tentacles, extending them from under the muck and attempting to smash the Lombax with its tentacles. After dealing a sufficient amount of damage to the beast, Ratchet forced it to retreat into the muck, allowing him access to the outlet.

Trivia

 * The Swamp Monster I was the first of its species encountered on Oozla, the second being the Swamp Monster II, which was an optional hidden boss located in a cavern beneath the muck under the outlet. This Swamp Monster, unlike its predecessor, showed its entire body.
