Like its fellow legendary machine, the [[Dragoon]], the Hydra can normally be brought into existence only by assembling three different parts found throughout [[City Trial]]. These three parts are found only in red boxes in certain locations, as opposed to green or blue boxes. Some of the red boxes containing these parts may be found in spots where boxes are not normally found, such as in the middle of the dilapidated houses. In these spots, the red boxes are guaranteed to hold a machine part. These parts are comprised of the main body and the two engines. The parts are picked up by touching them, like all collectible items in the game, and each part collected appears in the player's heads-up-display. If a player takes damage while holding machine parts, they may drop one or more of them. The parts are able to appear in roughly half of all city trials.

When one player holds all three parts, a short cutscene of the machine assembling itself will play, and the rider's machine will be replaced with the Hydra.  In addition, the city's music will change to the Legendary Machine theme until the [[Stadium]] segment of the trial begins.

Although the Hydra machine is extremely durable, it can still be destroyed like any other machine.

For the Hydra to move at all, the rider must fill up its charge gauge by [[Boost]]ing in place.  The machine does not Boost forward from this, but the Boost acquired acts as the machine's fuel, and will gradually deplete as it charges forward. It shares this mechanic with the [[Bulk Star]], but the Hydra takes longer to charge fully, and its fuel lasts for a vastly greater period of time.

Line 38: Line 39:


The machine's Boost takes over eight full seconds to fill, but can last for several minutes at a time under normal conditions. Despite this, its fuel will disappear if it has a sufficiently bad landing, or if Kirby gains the [[Wheel#Kirby Air Ride|Wheel]], [[Wing#Kirby Air Ride|Wing]], or [[Sleep#Kirby Air Ride|Sleep]] [[Copy Ability|Abilities]].
