He also happens to have a gentle, nature loving side; however, he particularly dislikes red flowers. Has a Buffalo Missile weapon with his tail as the trigger. He has his friends handle the trigger timing (by having them pull his tail) so he can concentrate on taking aim, thus raising his accuracy rating. He has a habit of stamping his feet. He transforms into a bison and many around him have a habit of calling him a bull to which he will instantly retort "I'm a buffalo!"
