Shocking electrical attack. Rather sensitive. Reads poetry, likes plants and enjoys zapping wandering denizens.

Monsoons are robots that appear as an enemy in the video games Battle for Bikini Bottom and Battle for Bikini Bottom: Rehydrated.
Description
Monsoons are robots that wear a big pair of glasses. It has a red and white umbrella on its head, allowing it to float in the air (meaning attacks that can head upwards are its main weaknesses), and a green mouth, and a propeller on its back. They also carry a remote that they use to generate and control electrically-charged storm clouds.
In the remake, the Monsoons' umbrella is now rainbow-colored, and their bodies have a blockier design. Their green eyes now turn red when it spots SpongeBob, Patrick and/or Sandy; additionally, the Monsoons' eyes also have eyelids, and they are typically seen squinting, and the propeller now requires pedals to move. Their mouths also now move.
Abilities
- Storm cloud attack
Role in game
Monsoons are semi-common enemies. They make their debut appearance in Goo Lagoon as the seventh robot SpongeBob, Patrick and Sandy encounter in their adventures, where one of them is seen electrocuting a Bikini Bottomite with its storm cloud attack. Once a Monsoon spots the player, it will send a storm cloud towards them, which then attempts to strike the player with lightning. Monsoons are immune to their own storm clouds. Monsoons can be very difficult to defeat even on their own, since they are usually too far out of reach to hit with a grounded attack, as they stay above their target with their umbrella. The best way to destroy one is with SpongeBob's Bubble Bash or Cruise Bubble techniques. Patrick can also throw a tiki or a throw fruit at them, and Sandy lasso at them.
They are found in Goo Lagoon, the Rock Bottom Museum, Sand Mountain, Kelp Forest, and the Chum Bucket Lab. Destroying a Monsoon will award the player sixty Shiny Objects.
