|Notes=
* Spawned as part of the quest [[VW Op. 118: Buburimu Squall]]
* Uses several different types of normal melee attacks:
** Frontal: Single target damage, max HP down (~20%)
** Frontal: AoE damage (double), [[Amnesia]]
** Side: AoE damage (triple), knockback
** Rear: AoE damage (quadruple), [[Stun]]
* Has a high [[physical damage taken]] reduction but takes normal magic damage.
* Has a constant [[Bio]] aura (20hp/tic).
* Has [[Auto Regen]].
* Casts all -ja spells and [[Meteor]].
** Has a fairly high [[Fast Cast]] trait.
** Can use [[Chainspell]] multiple times throughout the battle, first used at 65-80% HP.
*** The next usage takes place several minutes after the first one, and will not occur if defeated quickly enough. [[Fool's Drink]] should be used to survive Chainspell (the extremely large AoE on Meteor makes it nearly impossible to survive through Chainspell without using Fool's Drink or staggering Botulus Rex).
*** Will not use any TP moves or normal melee attacks while [[Chainspell]] is active.
* Uses the following TP moves. One or more may have hate reset.
** '''Chymous Reek''' Area of Effect damage, additional effect [[Stun]] and [[Choke]] (Choke cannot be removed)
** '''Sloughy Sputum''' Conal damage, knockback, [[Gravity]], and [[Drown]]
** '''Crowning Flatus''' Area of Effect damage, knockback, and [[Stun]]
** '''Rancid Reflux''' Conal damage, knockback, [[Max HP Down]], [[Gravity]]
** '''Just Desserts''' Area of Effect damage, [[Stun]], and [[Drown]] (up to 57 HP/tick)
** '''Gnash 'n Guttle''' Area of Effect [[Max HP Down]]
** <30% HP: '''Slimy Proposal''' Area of Effect [[Charm]] (~30 seconds) and [[Dia]] (over 30 HP/tick), clears negative status ailments on Botulus Rex.
* Botulus Rex has 137 INT, 89 MND, +12.5% [[Magic Damage Taken]], and 40 [[Magic Defense Bonus]]
* As of the February 2012 version update, timing [[Voidwatch Weaknesses|weakness triggers]] properly with TP moves or spells now correctly yields increased alignment/weakness duration on this monster.
