Gulpfer (ガルプファー Garupufā), called Blowfish in some games, are bizarre fish enemies in the underwater sections of Mega Man X, Mega Man Maverick Hunter X, and Mega Man Xtreme 2. They create vortices to pull prey in, and actually swallow him. The target will stay trapped in until he shoots his way out. Alternatively, the captured Reploid can also simply jump several times to break free.
The Garakuta Robot from Mega Man X2 uses parts of Gulpfers.
