Diddy Kong Racing Walkthrough Pt 32: Vs. Bubbler the Octopus (1st time)

Aside from Wizpig, Bubbler is the most difficult boss in the game, to an extent. You'll be in your Hovercraft for this race. Bubbler is a large red octopus who likes to drop hazards in the water. The first time you race him he'll drop mines around the course. Not only do you have to dodge mines, Bubbler is also pretty fast.

Passing Bubbler can be a pain since he tends to drop a mine when you are about to go by him. So, start out the race in second. If you get a super boost at the beginning, you'll pass him. He will overtake you, so stay to the left so he doesn't run you over. Don't stay in the middle of the course since most of the mines will be dropped there.

Using blue balloons isn't necessary. Bubbler is only fast at the start and then slows down. As long as you aren't bumping into things, you'll be close to him. In the final stretch of track, you'll see two small islands, each with a red balloon on it. Pick up both and then fire the Homing Missile at Bubbler. If you're close, you'll easily pass by him. Once you're ahead of him, he won't overtake you unless you bump into things.

Once you win you'll unlock the Silver Coin Challenges.
