"New and, unfortunately, improved."
— Description

R7038XX (R•7038XX in Mother) is a boss encountered on Mt. Itoi in EarthBound Beginnings. It is a revised version of R7038 sent to eradicate Ninten and his friends by Giygas. A robot similar to R7038XX is shown in the Japanese commercial for the game.

Eve is required in order to survive the battle, as it will give its life to save the party. The resulting explosion will destroy both robots and reveal the seventh of the Eight Melodies. The Memory Chip (only in the GBA version) is retrieved after the battle.

Trivia[]

  • If the player tries to backtrack with Eve, they will encounter R7038XX on the way to the healer's house.
  • If the player's party is knocked out while in Eve's company before reaching R7038XX, EVE's remains will appear and R7038XX will not appear at all.
