Vs. Recoome - Boss Fight Tips
3 Bosses In A Row
The second fight with Racoome (as Goku) will lead into the Burter/Jeice consecutive boss fights where you can't recover your health. It's important to take absolutely as little damage as possible during this fight!
Keep Moving To Dodge Grenade Bomber
In order to minimize damage taken, you need to get hit with as few special attacks as possible. During Grenade Bomber, fly around while avoiding the thin red lines.
Fly To The Side During Eraser Gun
Always be ready to react to Racoome's Eraser Gun sweep. When he uses this ability, immediately start moving sideways to get out of the affected area.
Watch Out For His Kick
As with many other previous bosses, Racoome has a counter kick which will knock you back and stun you. Try to avoid staying up close to him for extended periods of time.

Burter Battle
3 Bosses In A Row
This fight connects directly from the previous Racoome fight, which means you might be low on HP. It will also connect to another fight with Jeice after, so make sure you avoid abilities.
Use Recovery Items If Necessary
These two bosses are part of a gauntlet, so if you lose here you'll have to start over from Recoome! Use items without hesitation if it prevents you from dying!
Reduce Physical Damage Taken
Burter doesn't really have any major destructive special abilities, so most of the damage you'll take will probably be from his melee attacks. As such, make sure you guard and dodge appropriately. In general, try to stay above him so you don't get struck by Mach Kick.
When You Always Get Defeated
Back to the previous save point and restart from Recoome battle. In Recoome battle, avoid getting hit so that you can fight Burter & Jeice in an easier condition.
Jeice Battle
First Jeice Battle
This is the first time you fight Jeice in this game. He will also appear in a later fight. Both fights are in the Frieza Saga.
Get Up Close
Unlike Burter, Jeice's physical moves aren't as dangerous. He also should be at relatively low health, so as long you avoid his Crusher Ball, you won't be at risk of taking much damage. Use melee moves and move out if you anticipate a Meteor Crusher to take him out.

Kamehameha Is Effective Against The Pair
