In the mood for pizza, well Bugsnax has the snak for you - especially if you like your pizza to be heckin' aggressive and have the ability to fly. In the game, there are a few Legendary Bugsnax that serve as boss battles, and the Mothza Supreme is one of them.
Mothza is a gigantic pizza that idly flies around the Sizzlin' Sands - and it's also the Bugsnak that causes your ship to crash land at the beginning of the game. You want to take your revenge on such a perilous foe, right? Here's how.

How To Find Mothza Supreme
The fight against Mothza Supreme is the focus of the final sidequest in Cromdo's personal storyline, which revolves around his search for riches and treasure. There are two prerequisite quests that you'll have to complete first:
- The first Cromdo quest you'll have to complete is Deal or No Deal, which requires that you catch a Buffalocust for Cromdo.
- The second quest you need to complete is Inside Man, which turns out to be a low-key stealth mission to "retrieve" something from Triffany.
With Triffany's map liberated from her possession, Cromdo decides that it'll lead to a Legendary Bugsnak - and he's not wrong about that. He also thinks it'll make him rich. That might be a tougher ask.
Anywho, you'll automatically travel to Sizzlin' Sands with Cromdo once you pick up the A Slice of Heaven quest. Head to the pyramid in the distance and head up the steps - there will be some sort of covering that you need to destroy. Go back down the steps and use your Snakgrappler on the statue with a pizza cutter attached to it.
Pick up the resulting Bombino with your Snakgrappler, head to the top of the pyramid again, and place it on the covering. A small recess will be revealed. Place your Lunchpad inside it and witness the anger of the overgrown pizza.
How To Defeat And Capture The Mothza Supreme
Mothza Supreme is one of the easier boss fights in the game. It will fly around the pyramid, stopping at each statue that still has a pizza cutter, but will hover too high above the statues to be able to use the pizza cutter on it. In addition, it'll summon tornados as protection.
More Bombinos will spawn during this fight - lots of them - around the statues. While they start on fire, they'll be put out when caught up in a tornado, and you can then grab them - either with the action button or from afar with the Snakgrappler.
Put a Bombino on the Lunchpad on top of the pyramid and aim it at Mothza Supreme. The targeting line will turn blue when it's locked on, but don't launch it yet. Launch the Bombino right as the boss finishes flying to a new statue - this will ensure that you don't miss and waste time.
When struck by a Bombino, Mothza Supreme will fall to the ground in front of a statue. Rush down there and use your Snakgrappler on the statue's base to cause the pizza cutter to collapse, damaging the beast. Do this twice, and Mothza will enter its second and final phase.
When Mothza Supreme falls to the ground, it creates a huge shockwave that damages all nearby Bombinos and makes them easy to pick up. This is a great way to fill up your Snakpack quickly!
In this phase, Mothza will create a huge tornado that prevents your usual method of Lunchpad-ing a Bombino at it. Instead, you'll have to manually throw a Bombino into the large tornado from below. It'll fly up and hopefully hit the Mothza from underneath.
This phase requires some tricky aiming and, honestly, a bit of luck. If you miss, just throw another Bombino and hope for the best.
After being pizza cuttered three times, the boss will be small enough to scoop up with your Bug Net! Feed it to Cromdo to finish his quest.
How To Refight Mothza Supreme
If you return to Sizzlin' Sands after beating Mothza for the first time, you'll find a statue in its image atop the pyramid. Interact with this, and you can encounter the Bugsnak again and shove more into your Snakpack.
