The Streetgrinder is an enemy that appears in Cartoon Network Universe: FusionFall. It is a species of Fusion Monsters that is used in Fuse's Army.
Physical appearance
A Streetgrinder, from the Quick Start Game Guide.
The Streetgrinder is a robotic Fusion Monster. Its main body is a downward and two-layered, cone-shaped tubes filled with Fusion Matter, with a yellow and dark gray-striped cap on the top of its upper cone and a dark blue metal ring around the upper cone's lower edge. The lower cone of the main body also has four pairs of blue and white titanium blades[1] attached to its lower tip. Around the midsection of its body is also a large metallic blue eyemask on the front with white outlines on it and featureless red eyes with black rims displayed inside it while the back has a pair of metallic blue exhaust pipes on it. Lastly, it has two arms: the right one is an intertwined set of gray cables with a black wristband with yellow stribes and a sweeper for a hand, and the left one is a segmented metallic blue cord with Fusion Matter flowing through it and a black suction mouth with yellow stribes for a hand.
Gameplay
In gameplay, the Streetgrinders are enemy monsters that the player fights at various points in the game, either optionally, or as a part of a mission objective. To target a Streetgrinder, align the Avatar with it to make its information window appear on the top of the screen. Should its Health Bar reach zero when battling it, the Fusion Matter animating the Streetgrinder will break up, and the Streetgrinder will disintegrate.[2] The player will then automatically receive some Fusion Matter and Taros as reward. However, while the Streetgrinder's Taro reward remains consistent, its Fusion Matter reward will decrease for each level the Avatar is above the Streetgrinder; if the Avatar is six levels higher than the Streetgrinder or more, no Fusion Matter is rewarded. Sometimes, the player also automatically receives loot from defeated Streetgrinders in the form of C.R.A.T.E.s, Nano Potions, and Weapon Boosts.
In battle, the Streetgrinders target the Avatar when they get close enough. However, the higher the Avatar's level is, the closer they can get to a Streetgrinder without it attacking them. Once they begin fighting, the Streetgrinders will continue attacking until either they are destroyed, the Avatar is defeated, or the Avatar moves too far away from their point of origin. If the Avatar runs away from them, the Streetgrinders will follow them until they get too far away from their area of roaming, at which point they will return, where they will regain their full health instantly. Notably, while retreating, they will be invulnerable to attacks. Also, once defeated, a Streetgrinder will respawn after one hundred seconds.

Behavior
Like other Fusion Monsters, the Streetgrinders are aggressive, hostile, and spit out Fusion Matter wherever they go. They also have a desire to hurt others.[1]
Powers and abilities
Skills the Streetgrinders have exhibited include:
- Energy Projection: The Streetgrinders can fire blasts of green energy.
- Fusion Matter Explosion: The Streetgrinders possess the Eruption Attack, which lets them create a localized explosion of Fusion Matter from the ground. When launching this attack, the Streetgrinders make the ground below their opponent glow with Fusion Matter for a few seconds before causing a pillar of Fusion Matter to erupt.
- Levitation: The Streetgrinders are able to float and move around in midair.
- Nano Drain: The Streetgrinders possess the Corruption Attack, which lets them drain Nanos of their stamina. When they are attacking a Nano, they will start to glow, which is the wind up, before throwing an attack that will trump their opponent's Nano. Should it make contact, the Nano will lose a lot of stamina. Conversely, if their opponent drops their current Nano and brings out one that deflects the attack back at the Streetgrinders, the Nano will get a boost in stamina. Should the Streetgrinders launch their Corruption Attack on an opponent without a Nano out though, the former will take damage.
