Octomino II is a semi-common evolutionary sequence that evolves into a diagonally symmetric constellation of two blocks, two blinkers, and a ship seen below after 116 generations.

In generation 52, it becomes a traffic light predecessor and a butterfly predecessor that will later interact in generation 62. The sequence gains diagonal symmetry in generation 56. Generation 86 is two R-pentominoes that will later interact in generation 101.

The simplest form of Gabriel's p138 is four octomino IIs that are rotationally symmetric. Other oscillators that hassle an octomino II include 36P25, a p154 octomino II shuttle,[1], a p164 octomino II hassler, and a p192 octomino II shuttle.[2]
