Mega Man V - Stage 1 (GB) - Mercury [Boss]
0Mercury[Boss]:
Mercury (マーキュリー Mākyurī) is one of the first four Stardroids Mega Man must fight in Mega Man V for the Game Boy. He is a greedy Stardroid whose body is made of liquid metal, and is thus able to take any form and dismantle himself to attack, similar to the Devil series, and is quick at running away after causing mischief. His main weapon is the Grab Buster, an attack that can steal energy and items from enemies and absorb them to recover his health. Sometimes Mercury also uses the Grab Buster on his allies, and he has a loose tongue, which doesn't give him many friends as a result. He doesn't get along with Pluto, and he hates people who gossip maliciously about him.
Most walkthroughs recommend taking on Mercury first, since he seems to be easily beaten with the Mega Arm (this strategy also saves the player from losing valuable small Energy Tanks to the Grab Buster as there are none in Mercury's stage). Later on, when the player faces him again in Wily's Space Lab, Mega Man can use his weakness, the Black Hole, to defeat him quickly.
Grab Buster[WEAPON]:
Grab Buster, known as Snatch Buster (スナッチバスター Sunacchi Basutā) in Japan, is Mercury's special weapon from Mega Man V. When Mercury uses it against Mega Man, he can steal weapon energy, Tanks and P-Chips. Mercury can also fire it diagonally.
When used by Mega Man, it sends a shot straight forward that can steal energy from the enemy to heal two units of health. Pluto and L. Knuckle and R. Knuckle are weak to this weapon. With the exception of these three and Brain Crusher's second form, all other bosses are immune to this weapon.
Capacity:
Activating Grab Buster consumes one weapon energy unit. With a full weapon energy gauge, it can be used 19 times. But if the Power Generator is used, two shots will consume one energy unit, and it can be used 38 times with a full weapon gauge.

[WEAKNESS]:
BLACK HOLE!
Strategy:
Mercury starts the fight by firing a flurry of nine dangerous Grab Busters, which will steal the player's items, including E-Tank parts, P Chips, Weapon Energy and even S-Tanks. The player has to jump in the same place over the first, fifth and last ones from its place to avoid all of them. After that, he will become liquid and divide himself into several small blobs, which come in two patterns: one in which three blobs jump twice and stop at the other side of the screen, which has to be avoided by standing at half-screen and slide when a blob comes, then return there again and repeat the process for the remaining blobs; and the other pattern consists of dashing while deploying three blobs that return to him, which has to be avoided by jumping fast so Mercury does not run into Mega Man while he dashes and again over the farthest one of him. His Grab Buster flurry can be interrupted if either Mega Man or Mercury get hit, which he retaliates immediately by dismantling and attacking as above.
Mercury's weakness is the Black Hole, but it can only be tested on the rematch against him in Wily's Star. It takes him out in four shots.
