Arf is a robot who appears as an enemy in the video game Battle for Bikini Bottom and Battle for Bikini Bottom: Rehydrated.
Description[]
Arf is a large robot who dresses like a cowboy: they feature a sheriff's badge, a mustache, boots, a belt with a shell decoration and a gun holder with a bone in it, a large cowboy hat with a red band, and a doghouse with a handle.
In Rehydrated, Arf now wears a red poncho, his badge is now on his hat, and his doghouse now has a door with bars on it.
Abilities[]
- .45 caliber "Kat Krusher" (Arf Dawg spawner)
Role in game[]
Arfs are somewhat rare enemies that appear in the Mermalair and Kelp Forest. In combat, they are stationary, but can summon Arf Dawgs from their doghouses. Arfs can also whack the player with their doghouses if the player gets too close to them.
It is recommended to use the Bubble Bowl or deflect the Arf Dawgs to damage Arfs. An Arf takes three hits to destroy, making Arfs one of the most durable enemies in the game. However, in the original game, the Cruise Bubble can instantly destroy them while they are idle. (The remake makes them immune.) Hitting the Arfs causes them to retreat with rocket feet. These robots tend to amble on their own, and when provoked, they make a whistling sound. Arfs drop 80 shiny objects when destroyed.
Trivia[]
- Arfs are one of the few enemies in the game to have feet. Others include Monsoons (which fly rather than walk), Tar-Tars, Chomp-Bots, Robo-Sandy, and Robo-Patrick.
- Sandy cannot encounter an Arf normally, but she has unused dialogue that she would say if she encountered an Arf. Arf also has an unused animation for being lassoed by Sandy.
