'''Monty Tank'''<ref>Loe, Casey. ''New Super Mario Bros.'' Player's Guide. Page 14.</ref> is the boss of [[World 6 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 6]] from ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' Like his name suggests, Monty Tank is a [[Monty Mole]] who drives a giant green [[tank]].
When [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] arrives at the [[World 6-Castle (New Super Mario Bros.)|castle]], Monty Tank bumps into either of the two plumbers from behind before starting the boss fight. In-battle, the tank shoots out several [[Bullet Bill]]s, with Mario or Luigi needing to [[stomp]] the Monty Mole's head three times. The Monty Mole's head is exposed when he comes out of the tank to throw [[Bob-omb]]s at the player, making him vulnerable to attacks. These Bob-ombs can also be thrown at the Monty Mole while his head is exposed to cause damage. Each time the tank is hit, it will spin and quickly move back and forth along the ground. While doing so, the tank makes an alarm sound go off and fires Bullet Bills from its turrets (though the amount of turrets depends on how many times Monty Tank has been damaged). Each time Monty Tank is damaged, an extra Bullet Bill shooting turret is added to the tank, making it taller and harder to hit the Monty Mole's head. After 3 hits, the tank explodes and makes the Monty Mole fall off the screen, leaving a key behind as well that allows Mario or Luigi to progress. Like the other bosses in the game, a [[Ground Pound|ground pound]] counts as two hits; if Mario or Luigi uses a ground pound on the first hit, two turrets will be added, while ground pounding or jumping on the second hit will immediately defeat the tank. Mario and Luigi can also defeat Monty Tank by just jumping onto the tank using a [[Mega Mushroom]]. The tank is invincible when the Monty Mole's head is not exposed, though if the player stands on top of the tank, it spins back and forth to get them off it, while firing Bullet Bills and its alarm sound going off (similar to when Monty Tank is damaged).

==Trivia==
*While internal data labels <tt>choropu</tt> (Monty Mole) separate from <tt>chorotank</tt> (Monty Tank), the [[Nintendo Power|Player's Guide]] attributes the name "Monty Tank" to the Monty Mole himself.
*Monty Tank is similar to the Monty Mole
**Monty Tank is also the second Monty Mole boss in the series.
