Hippoe (カバちゃん kaba-chan) is an enemy that appears in the Main Chapters and Stories of Legend.
Enemy
Hippoe is the first "boss" enemy the player will encounter. It has ten times more health than Snache, deals more than ten times the damage of Doge, and it also has only one knockback. Take caution when fighting it early on in the game, as it can easily kill all your cats. Hippoe is an easy enemy to defeat later on when the player's cats are stronger, but when Hippoe first makes its appearance in Japan, expect your cats to take a large beating. Make sure to use Gross Cat when you fight Hippoe for the first time, because Hippoe is close ranged, and Gross Cat is long ranged.
Strategy
Hippoe is a very strong enemy early on, being able to withstand multiple hits from Gross Cat.It will take about 10 hits from Gross Cat to kill Hippoe. However, Hippoe has a big disadvantage, it has low range, and that means Gross Cat will easily be able to take off 2-3 hits from it. You can also use Tank Cat and Cat to stop it from moving. You will also need to make sure there's nothing next to Hippoe, as Gross Cat will probably hit it instead, since Gross Cat doesn't have area attack.
In later levels, Hippoe is far easier to defeat. All it takes is one or two shots from Lizard Cat to easily be rid of Hippoe (Unless it is buffed 120000%, as in The Noble Tribe).
