'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is | {{nihongo|'''{{PAGENAME}}'''|針飛ばし|, Hari tobashi}} is an [[:Category:Chrono Cross Enemy Techs| Enemy Tech]] used by [[Puffy|Puffies]] and [[Scorpoid]]s in {{CC}}. This tech allows its user to shower a single target with a hail of needles, potentially inflicting the [[Frozen]] status effect (Scorpoid) or the [[Dizzy]] status effect (Puffy), alongside fairly heavy damage. | ||

===Puffy=== | |||
The Puffy in question will inflate itself by in-taking a huge gulp of water. This causes the its body to appear to be bursting to the seams, whereupon the Puffy will begin shooting red-colored spikes rapidly at a selected target. | |||
===Scorpoid=== | |||
Bending their tail/neck appendage toward the target, several ice-blue spikes shoot from its mouth, piercing through in a series of white puffs of energy. | Bending their tail/neck appendage toward the target, several ice-blue spikes shoot from its mouth, piercing through in a series of white puffs of energy. | ||

Because these are relatively relaxing and innocuous tasks, the pun may reside in the fact that this tech is the opposite. | NeedleWork is a pun on the fact that {{w|Scorpion}}s, upon which Scorpoids are based, have stingers.
