Rock Star - Stage 5 is the final stage of Rock Star in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards. This stage pits Kirby against Pix in a circular ring arena that moves upward like an elevator before settling high in the sky. Clearing this stage allows Kirby to access the next level, Aqua Star.
Overview
The fight begins on a large circular platform that is rising from the top of the pyramid. As the platform rises, Pix appears, one piece at a time. It will harass Kirby with its blades, but cannot be attacked in turn during this part. Pix attacks in three rounds, introducing a new piece of itself each time before making its final attack with all three diamonds.
Once the platform reaches the top, Pix will change its fighting strategy, and strange globs will appear out of the floor that match the colTemplate:Our of Pix itself. If Kirby has no Copy Ability, he can attack Pix by shooting these globs at him. If he manages to match a particular colTemplate:Our glob with the same colTemplate:Our Pix diamond, he will do extra damage. Once all of the diamonds are broken, Pix is defeated, and Kirby can collect the last crystal shard in the level, then move on to Aqua Star.
