Pupa is one of the second flavor of boss in this game: the AI Weapon. AI Weapon battles have no stealth element; they always know where you are. Since camouflage is not a consideration in this mission, you may as well go '''Naked''' to maximize your speed, weapon damage, and Heroism yield. An aggressive loadout would consist of the '''RPG-2''' and the '''LAW''' as your two Primary Weapons, with the '''Supply Marker''' as your secondary weapon. A conservative loadout would swap the '''LAW''' for the '''M60''' machine gun. Your top item should be the '''Ration''' while the '''Mate''' should be brought to restore your Psyche, as all AI Weapons have attacks that damage Psyche. | Pupa is one of the second flavor of boss in this game: the AI Weapon.

It will move to fast for rocket launchers at this time, so focus on preparation. On the edges of Crater Base are three nooks that open into tunnels. You cannot access the tunnels, but the nooks are good places to retreat to when you need to reload, heal, or call in a resupply. You will start just outside one of these nooks. Run in while Pupa starts moving around the curved wall. Immediately equip the '''★1 Supply Marker''' and hold down {{control|{{psp|l1}}|{{psx|l1}}|{{xbox|LT}}}} and press {{control|{{psp|r1}}|{{psx|r1}}|{{xbox|RT}}}} to place the Marker at your feet. Do so at a place within the nook, but at some distance from the walls. While the Supply Marker is equipped, press {{control|{{psp|r1}}|{{psx|r1}}|{{xbox|RT}}}} again to confirm the supply drop at the location of the marker. Go ahead and do it now, but don't pick up anything yet. | ||

As Pupa moves around the arena, its dorsal machine guns will take potshots at you. It's okay to tank them; damage doesn't seem to affect your grade. Going out into the arena seems to goad Pupa into coming down for stronger attacks. Doing so causes it to stop and makes it vulnerable to rocket launchers. The scientist will advise you to aim for the '''cylindrical AI Pod''', and that is exactly where you should direct your attacks. Try and zig-zag your movement as you reload after your shots. If time ever becomes a factor, swap to the LAW in lieu of reloading. | As Pupa moves around the arena, its dorsal machine guns will take potshots at you.

When Pupa stops on level ground, it will prepare its shock attack. The shock cannon beneath its AI Pod will move, then stop before firing, so try to keep an eye on it. The shock cannon only has a 45-degree range of motion at Pupa's front, so you can try to attack from the side. The dorsal machine guns will continue to take potshots between shots of the shock cannon. Getting hit by the shock cannon will briefly paralyze you and damage your Psyche. If your Psyche empties to zero, you will have to waggle {{control|the '''Analog Stick''' |{{psx|neutral|lstick}}|{{xbox|neutral|lstick}}}} until your Psyche is full to get back up. Try to recover Psyche by using Mate whenever you can. | When Pupa stops on level ground, it will prepare its shock attack.

When Pupa's Life starts to get low, its attacks will change. Instead of a single shot from the shock cannon, it will fire three in rapid succession. Don't let this hit you. | When Pupa's Life starts to get low, its attacks will change. Instead of a single shot from the shock cannon, it will fire three in rapid succession.

It also has a desperation move in which it will deploy many hockey-puck shaped objects at random locations. The scientist will describe them as "lightning rods." Sometime later, Pupa will use them to direct a chain-lightning attack all over the arena; if a lightning rod is near you, you'll get hit, so try to destroy them with your machine gun if that happens. If you didn't bring it, consider sacrificing a missile, or finding a new position without any lightning rods around. Once Pupa completes this attack, the rods will be destroyed. | It also has a desperation move in which it will deploy many hockey-puck shaped objects at random locations.
