'''Boss Biditank''' ('''''Poubelus Agrovis'''''), referred to as just '''Biditank''' by [[Bimbette]], is a mechanical boss piloted by the [[Spyglass Pirate]]. It appears only in ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'', where it is fought in the [[Pirate Factory]].

==Description==
==Description==
The Boss Biditank is an experimental tank resembling a giant barrel or [[Barrel Pirate]]. The machine has three wheels and an eye-hole for the [[Spyglass Pirate]] to peer out from. Its primary attack is a cannon at the front of the machine, which fires a round of small shots (similar to those used by [[green Henchman 800]]s). Its sides also open up and release two [[helicopter bomb]]s, but only when there are none chasing [[Rayman]]. At times, it shakes violently and releases electrical discharges; it is firing up a powerful [[laser]] beam that always hits unless [[Rayman]] is hiding behind something. Mounted on top of it is a mechanical eye, which is its only vulnerable spot, which can only be hit by the high-firepower [[laser]] gun at the back of the room.

The Biditank bears a strong resemblance to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonardo%27s_fighting_vehicle Da Vinci's tank].

The Boss Biditank was to be tested out on [[Bimbette]], one of [[Globox]]'s [[Baby Globox|daughters]], before [[Rayman]] arrives in the [[Pirate Factory]] and frees her from her [[cage]]. The Boss Biditank is quick to arrive, however, and is piloted by the [[Spyglass Pirate]]. To defeat the Biditank, [[Rayman]] must step on the four [[switch]]es controlling the four [[generator]]s at the four corners of the large room while avoiding the Biditank's attacks. Once the four [[generator]]s have been activated, the [[laser]] turret at the back of the room becomes operational. While [[Rayman]] is using the turret, a door on the back of the Boss Biditank opens, and the [[Spyglass Pirate]] emerges. [[Rayman]] cannot harm him, either with the [[laser]] or his [[magic fist]]. If [[Rayman]] approaches the [[Spyglass Pirate]] or his Biditank, the [[Spyglass Pirate]] produces [[helicopter bomb]]s and begins to throw them at him. If [[Rayman]] successfully hits the Boss Biditank's weak spot with the [[laser]], the Biditank will be damaged, losing one third of its health. [[Rayman]] must return to the [[generator]]s to power up the [[laser]] and use it again. It takes three hits to destroy the Boss Biditank, after which its wheels and weak point fall off. The [[Spyglass Pirate]] then runs out, declaring "[[Technical Check-Up|I'll be back]]" as a ladder descends, allowing [[Rayman]] entry to [[The Sanctuary of Rock and Lava#PlayStation 2 version|the Lava Sanctuary]] and [[Beneath the Sanctuary of Rock and Lava#PlayStation 2 version|beneath it]].
