Zarkhator's final form in the editor is slightly different from what is used in the game, as some of the parts seen are reoriented/missing.If player make no alterations to Zarkhator's form after defeating him, he will still be laughed at.Zarkhator's ability to summon red crystals may be a reference to Spacegodzilla.In the pre-release footage and within the game files, Zarkhator's original name was Nemesis.In this state, all the other creatures laugh at him, causing Zarkhator to be humiliated and run off. This form's appearance is determined by the player, and can be seen just before the ending credits. This form is seen in the Mushroom Grove.Īfter defeating him, Sporeling evolves Zarkhator into a form that cannot harm the planet. If Sporeling ate the poisonous fruit, the Sporeling would be taken back to its nest after drifting off into sleep. While in this form, he tries to give Sporeling a Suwapootoo fruit. He still retains Wareyes and other "evil" looking details (ie: Monstrumtalons for hands). Zarkhator shape-shifts himself to look like a Krikat, being referred to as "Strange Creature". The hero has to beat him three times before Zarkhator is too weak to fight back anymore. He participates with Sporeling in an epic battle at the heart of the planet. This is the form Zarkhator is in when he is taken down once and for all. This form was seen in the Creature Beach. Zarkhator's last form was the same as the previous one, but more muscular and with the Megachiraptora wings, Deathspikes, and the Beefteef mouth. Note: This form is interchangeable with the fourth form. Zarkhator's fifth form resembles his fourth form but has the Soundersnout mouth and Deathclaws. This form was seen in the Moonlit Stoneway. Zarkhator's fourth form is now more upright with a Barracutie mouth and two extra arms. This form seen and fought in the Moonlit Stoneway. Zarkhator's third form is a lot larger form his second form, now having spikes on his back and a tail. This form is seen in the Mushroom Valley where he pushes a large red meteor down on Sporeling and Big Chief. He now has Wareyes, a Slagjawed mouth, Gubbypaws and Heycorns on his back. Zarkhator's second form looks similar to his first form with some minor changes. His eyes are white when Zarkhator first hatches. This form was seen in the opening video and the Mushroom Valley. He is born more powerful than Sporeling and is capable of pushing large red fragments with some difficulty. When Zarkhator first emerges from the meteor, he resembles a smaller version of his third form. Although unlike Sporeling who can go with multiple forms, Zarkhator has a total of six forms (not counting two alternate forms, which include his disguised and cursed form): Zarkhator goes through the evolution process just like Sporeling. Sporeling then uses its ability to devolve Zarkhator into a harmless form. He then battles against Sporeling three times, but loses thanks to the Spor-o-mega. Zarkhator then manages to get to the heart of the planet instead. Just before the final battle, Zarkhator tries to get to the planet's brain, but loses to Sporeling. In some cases, he transforms other creatures into weaker, often unrecognizable forms of themselves, such as with Beast, who became a "big pile of fluff" and his love interest Beauty believed he left the valley as a result. Outside of Sporeling's encounters, he conspires with other creatures to obey him or corrupts them to become mindless and hostile. In Mushroom Grove, he disguises himself as a trustworthy form to try and feed Sporeling a poisonous Suwapootoo fruit. Zarkhator later ambushes Sporeling in Moonlit Stoneway, but he loses the fight and retreats. In Mushroom Valley, Zarkhator attempts to crush Sporeling and Big Chief with a red meteor, but misses and instead corrupts the Chief. Zarkhator hatches from an egg inside one of the red meteors and quickly causes corruption and devastation on the planet.

In the beginning, an explosion occurred in space, causing red and blue meteors to spread throughout the galaxy and eventually crash into a tropical planet. The Crystal Meteors before landing on Sporeling's planet.
