The Shogun is a powerful mech used by the Venomian Army which serves as the end boss for Sector Y in Star Fox 64. It is deployed by the Saruzin attack carrier immediately after the two Shogun Warriors are defeated by the Star Fox Team. Armed with a laser pistol and a shield, the Shogun will fly around the stage and shoot at the Arwings with greater speed and aggression than the Shogun Warriors. Its shield can absorb the Arwings' Laser blasts, but it is relatively fragile, and will break off after taking several hits.
The Shogun is much more agile than the Shogun Warriors and is that much harder to hit, but its pilot makes the huge mistake of periodically landing on the deck of the carrier for short periods of time and shooting at the Arwings while standing still. This makes him an easy target for laser-fire. His last words are "Aaaaaahhhhh!". Although more models did not appear after the Lylat Wars, Oikonny's uprising featured a very similar mecha at one point during the battle that was apparently a prototype given what the characters stated. The prototype was later encountered at the Asteroid Field in the Aparoid Base construction area, only this time it was infected by the Aparoids.
