Bit, Byte and Vile

After you defeat the second Maverick, you will soon face Bit, who is weak against B. Buffalo's weapon (the 2nd suggested Maverick here). After you defeat Bit, you will soon face Byte, who is weak against T. Rhino's weapon (the 4th suggested Maverick here). If they're both defeated using the weapons they're weak against, they will not reappear in the final stages of the game.

Before defeating Byte, you can access Vile's stage from capsules hidden in some stages you already cleared: B. Buffalo's, V. Catfish's or C. Crawfish's. Vile is weak against C. Crawfish's and N. Tiger's weapons. If he's defeated using the weapons he's weak against, he will not reappear in the final stages of the game. If you meet Byte before fighting Vile, let Byte defeat you once, and he'll move to another stage.
