It isn't particularly hard to beat if you use the right moves during the fight, however, finding the hidden boss is a bit challenging.

How To Find The Blooper
You can find the Blooper inside the sewers after you enter through a pipe in Rogueport. You will spot the green pipe below Professor Frankly's house. When you enter it, you will reach the sewers, head right till you see a plane panel. Here you have to transform into aꦏ paper plane. Fly across the area till yo🍎u land near a doorway.
Head inside the door, and you will see one of Blooper's Tentacles outside the water. Hit it witꦦh your Hammer. The mini-boss will appear ranting and raging. It will then proceed to attack you and the battle will commence.
How To Beat Blooper
The Blooper is an early-game boss that becomes easier to beat if you take down its tentacles first. Furthermore, its HP and other stats are low, so he really doe🥃sn't pose a challenge.

Second Phase
Blooper will now hit you with its second Tentacle on the ground. If you use an action command and block the attack right before it hits, you will not receive any damage at all. You have to now take it on by hitting it with your Hammer followed by Goombelle's attack.
