— Kirby: Planet Robobot Pause Screen description

Sectonia Clone is a surprise boss encountered near the end of Meta Knightmare Returns in Kirby: Planet Robobot. It was created using remnants of Queen Sectonia's genetic material harvested from the Dreamstalk, and fights much like the late Queen.

Kirby: Planet Robobot[edit]

“

...Impressive. That may have been a bit too easy for the admin... Next up is one whose swordplay resembles a beautiful dance... Let us bring back the most powerful queen from the void. Experience her royal presence and unparalleled fighting skills. She will be a fitting test for you.

”

— Star Dream - addressing Meta Knight in Meta Knightmare Returns

After defeating Dark Matter Clone, Star Dream sets up the next challenge of "Sword_Master.EXE" for its new admin, Meta Knight. It brings out a tube containing the clone of Sectonia, and has him battle it.

Boss Fight[edit]

The following lists all of Sectonia Clone's attacks in Kirby: Planet Robobot. It will often teleport to different locations of the arena to set up for most of its attacks.

Attacks - Phase 1
Attack	Description
突進 Rush	Sectonia Clone performs two sword swipes, then thrusts forward across the stage, leaving several stars in its path. In phase 1, the thrust will either take it up to the air, or along the ground.
飛来攻撃 Flying Attack	Sectonia Clone floats out of reach for a moment, draws its swords together, and dives across the stage, swiping as it does so and leaving stars. In phase 1, it may follow up with two or three more swipes.
連続突き攻撃 Continuous Thrust Attack	Sectonia Clone moves toward its target, rapidly thrusting its blades in two sets as it does so, then finishing with a large swipe that leaves stars.
ブライトネスリング Brightness Ring	Sectonia Clone summons a large spinning golden ring with a sharp edge around itself, then moves gently across the stage with it. After enough time passes, Sectonia Clone moves to the background and summons several large golden sharp disks before tossing them at its target. The last toss splits into two mid-flight.
シルバーロッドショット Silver Rod Shot	Sectonia Clone changes its swords into staves, and uses them to fire five beam shots at its target. They leave stars if they hit the ground.

In phase 1, the Sectonia Clone attacks in a fixed order on loop as follows:

1. Rush (upward)
2. Flying Attack (three swipes)
3. Continuous Thrust Attack
4. Brightness Ring
5. Rush (along the ground)
6. Flying Attack (two swipes)
7. Silver Rod Shot

When Sectonia Clone is reduced to half health, it stumbles for a moment, then intensifies its assault.

Attacks - Phase 2
Attack	Description
テレポート攻撃 Teleport Attack	Sectonia Clone vanishes, and starts warping at rapid speed, leaving vague imprints as it does so. It then appears and attempts to swipe. This attack is repeated twice, three or four times, with the last one being feinted once or twice. The last strike leaves stars on impact.
クィンズクラッシュ Queen's Crush	Sectonia Clone changes its swords to staves, holds them high a moment, then brings them crashing down, creating a wave of red crystal that spreads across the stage. This also leaves stars on impact. It does this maneuver three times, on one side of the stage, the other and then the center. This attack corresponds to Sectonia's "Queen's Jewel" (クィンズ・ジュエル), and is the only attack it does not share with the original battle.
ブライトネスリング Brightness Ring	Sectonia Clone summons several large golden sharp disks from the background, and tosses them at its target. The last toss splits into two mid-flight.
飛来攻撃 Flying Attack	Sectonia Clone floats out of reach for a moment, draws its swords together, and dives across the stage, swiping as it does so and leaving stars. In phase 2, it will always follow up with three more swipes.
落雷 Lightning Strike	Sectonia Clone changes its swords into staves and uses them to zap the floor with lightning that spreads out from left-to-right or right-to-left.
突進 Rush	Sectonia Clone performs two sword swipes, then thrusts forward across the stage, leaving several stars in its path. In phase 2, the thrust will always take it up to the air.
シルバーロッドショット Silver Rod Shot	Sectonia Clone changes its swords into staves, and uses them to fire five beam shots at its target. They leave stars if they hit the ground.
連続突き攻撃 Continuous Thrust Attack	Sectonia Clone moves toward its target, rapidly thrusting its blades in two sets as it does so, then finishing with a large swipe that leaves stars.

In phase 2, the Sectonia Clone begins with this attack:

• Teleport Attack ×4 (last slash is feinted once)

It then proceeds to attack in this fixed order on loop as follows:

1. Queen's Crush
2. Brightness Ring
3. Teleport Attack ×2 (last slash is feinted twice)
4. Flying Attack
5. Teleport Attack ×3 (last slash is feinted twice)
6. Lightning Strike
7. Rush
8. Lightning Strike
9. Rush
10. Silver Rod Shot
11. Continuous Thrust Attack
12. Teleport Attack ×3 (last slash is feinted twice)

Once Sectonia Clone is defeated, it dissolves back into the purple goo from whence it was formed, collapsing tumultuously in on itself before exploding.

The Sectonia Clone is also fought by Kirby, just after Dark Matter Clone, in The True Arena.

Music[edit]

Main article: Sullied Grace

Sectonia Clone's theme is titled "Faded and Flower". It is a digitized remix of "Sullied Grace", Sectonia's boss theme from Kirby: Triple Deluxe; it skips the first section, starting out at the bridge.

Trivia[edit]

• While Sectonia Clone looks and acts practically identical to the original, there are some subtle differences between them. Unlike Queen Sectonia, who changes her staves into swords when necessary, Sectonia Clone does the opposite. The shine in its eyes is missing, and its voice is bitcrushed, similarly to Susie and President Haltmann. Most notably, all of the hearts on its design (on its thorax, crown, and collar) are split in two. Given the similar broken heart aesthetic on its creator, Star Dream, this similarity marks it as the computer's creation.
• Since Meta Knight was not present in Kirby: Triple Deluxe, this was the first opportunity for him to battle anything resembling Queen Sectonia.
• When defeated, the clone dissolves into the purple goo it once formed from. Much like how Dark Matter Clone briefly takes its true form before it explodes, Sectonia Clone briefly reveals its true form: a figure very similar to Taranza, but with various differences in design. In a Miiverse post, it was stated that Sectonia originally resembled her insectoid subjects before using magic to attain her final wasp-like form, so this is presumably what she originally looked like.
  • The "Rockabilly and Blues" Celebration Picture, one of the Stone transformations in Kirby Star Allies, and the Old Friend Dress-Up Mask all depict this Taranza-esque character, further indicating her being Sectonia's original form.
• Sectonia Clone's pause description mentions that "its data contains elements of creatures spanning 1,000 years". This implicitly refers to Queen Sectonia's parasitic nature, which is described in the special pages for both Sectonia Vine and Soul of Sectonia.

  Sectonia Clone takes this form for a very brief moment before exploding. Note that the face, hairstyle, and horns all differ from Taranza.
