Ballom

3HP

B4

Flame

Balloon: Can you feel the breeze? Doesn't it feel nice?
Bomberman: Right--now don't you go anywhere--just stay there!

This silly creature floats around aimlessly, but should you get close it'll aim for you. It will actually home in on bombs, so you'd have to be trying to not kill it.

Burol

3HP

A3

Yo-yo

Burol: N? Mu? Hoom! Hoom!
Bomberman: Huh, what is he trying to say, grunting like that??

Shuffling around with no real direction in a slow manner is Burol's tactic. Has a habit of walking into explosions.

Kurin

3HP

C3

Landmine

Kurin: Why're you picking on me? I haven't done anything bad!
Bomberman: I won't do anything bad either as long as you stay where you are!

Another monster with no real tactic other than aimless moving, Kurin changes direction a lot, but with anything but the smallest flame length, shouldn't be too hard to hit.

Blobby

4HP

B2

Rubber

Blobby: Boing! Boing! Boing!
Bomberman: Huh? He's just sitting there bouncing up and down! That's funny! Ha ha!

This amusingly named monstrosity is yet another "wander aimlessly" enemy. Except it bounces! It's bouncing doesn't seem to change anything, explosions always damage it from my experience.

Pengy

5HP

D1

Full Heart

Pengy: Quack! Wack! Wack!
Bomberman: What are you trying to say? What does wack mean?

Pengy: Wackkkk!! Wak wak wakkk!

He may look cute, but he attacks by walking into you. He'll waddle aimlessly, but once you're in his sights, he'll head after you and attempt to collide with you. Landmines work nicely, or otherwise some neatly placed bombs.

Ghostey

5HP

Water Commander: C1

Safety Shoes

Ghostey: Thhhpt! Thhhpt!
Bomberman: Hey! Who do you think you're sticking your tongue out at?

Bomberman: Huh!? He's flying--normal bombs won't be able to hurt him...

Quite possibly the most useless enemy ever, he floats around and that's it. He doesn't attack, he does nothing, he just floats. He can't even hurt you until you knock him down for a brief moment. Throw a bomb at him to knock him down or use a Flak Bomb.

Parse

4HP

Field Ruins 1: C2

Flame

Parse: You know, I have a funny feeling we've met before...
Bomberman: My name is Bomberman, and don't you forget it!

This little freak shuffles around aimlessly in a sluggish fashion, but sometimes bounces to where you're standing to hit you.  He can still be damaged while bouncing, so no big deal.

Onil

4HP

Field Ruins 1: B1

Dash Shoes

Onil: Hey, do you want a slice of me? Here--I bet I make your eyes water!
Bomberman: Oh no! It's an onion monster! Stop it! You're making my eyes water!

Onil varies between wandering aimlessly, following Bomberman, and walking around bombs, so he's another simple monster to defeat. The most you've got to worry about is him being ever so slightly faster than Ballom.

Grein

5HP

Field Ruins 2: A3

Scuba Gear

Grein: It's so hot! Why is it so hot here!?
Bomberman: Ouch! You want to know why it's hot! It's because you're on fire!

Grein: Oh, it's me that's burning? Oh, OK!

Grein: I guess that means I don't have to be afraid of fire then! Ha ha!

Grein wanders around aimlessly, and stops to throw flames at you. Keep him cornered and hit him with the Ice Bombs.

Borey

4HP

C1

Tackle Belt

Borey: Snort! Snort!
Bomberman: Hm...I'd better be careful and make sure he doesn't see me!

Ignore Bomberman, getting seen is the thing to do. Borey will dash at you, and will turn in the opposite direction if he hits a bomb, or crash and recoil upon hitting a boulder or wall. Either drop some landmines and flee, or drop a bomb close to the wall so he's blown up while recovering.

Archer

4HP

A2

White Card

Archer: How'd you find me? I was just out here doing a little target practise...
Bomberman: Watch where you point that! You might poke somebody's eye out!

Archer will walk around his small strip of land, firing arrows in the direction he is facing, but sometimes stops and fires arrows actually aimed at you. Entering his territory and trapping him between bombs defeats him good, although be wary that he can kick bombs.

Trent

6HP

D2

Shield

Trent: There's lot to eat here! I'm full! Burp!
Bomberman: Don't you burp at me! You stay right where you are so I can catch you!

Trent: Burp! Don't you know that normal bombs can't hurt me? Burp!

Even though the mugshot says Trent is a tree, apparently he's a pair of eyes, as he can only be hurt by the Flak Bomb. He also sends three roots to chase after you, and they can't be destroyed. Nasty.

Water Commander

6HP

Water Commander: A1

Explosive Core | +1HP

Water Commander: Hi there, cutie! Did you see my singles ad and come looking for me?

Water Commander: I've been waiting for someone handsome like you to show up?
Bomberman: Huh? What are you talking about? I'm here to catch you!

Water Commander: What? Well, that's no fun! You'll never meet any girls like that!

Bomberman: Whatever...

Bomberman: Listen up: I want that shuttle engine back, and I want it now!

Water Commander: Well, I was getting a little bored...

Water Commander: I guess I can play with you for a while... Ready?

The flirtatious Water Commander will wander around, and deploy two bombs that will bounce around the room, and more often than not blow herself up. Occasionally she'll go to a corner and spin in the air, spraying water and dampening out the fuses of every bomb you've laid. Try and connect your bombs with her explosions so it damages her, or just make her explode herself.

Mechabomb

5HP

Electro Commander: A2

Power Gloves

Bomberman: Whoa! It's a bomb! And it's going to go off! Stay away!

Mechabomb: Hey! I thought they called you Bomberman! Why are you afraid of bombs!?

A bomb that throws bombs at you. Is that ironic? It follows after you, occasionally does the aforementioned and can also kick your bombs. Put some bombs near the wall and stand behind it so the idiot will try to walk through the wall to get at you.

Curansee

5HP

Forest Clouds: B

Jump Shoes

Curansee: Ha ha! You better watch out or I'll spin your way!
Bomberman: Whoa! Stop spinning like that! You're making me dizzy!

Once you see that this guy is just a flat disc with an angry face, you can imagine how difficult he is. If you enter his horizontal or vertical axis, he'll go after you, but otherwise will just move aimlessly. Landmines should do the trick nicely.

Sandey

5HP

Electro Commander: C1

Full Heart

Sandey: waki waki bun bun bun!
Bomberman: I guess that's supposed to mean catch me if you can?

Sandey is another aimless shuffler, with his only method of attack being if you collide with him, or kick/throw a bomb at him, as he'll launch it back at you. He can't manipulate stationary bombs, so abuse that fact.

Digadug

6HP

E2

Shovel

Digadug: A-digging we will go, a-digging we will go...
Bomberman: Stop your singing and come out here and fight fair!

This guy can be a pain. He has no real method of attack except by colliding with you, but he frequently digs underground and only pops up for a little while. I think the game wants you to use the Short-fused Bomb, but who wants to wait to kill a monster? I lay a bomb by him when he pops up, wait a bit, and then use the Tackle Belt to stun him until it explodes. Not the best tactic, but it works.

Fruity

4HP

F2

Stopwatch

Fruity: Isn't it a beautiful day? Look at the dew on the leaves!
Bomberman: You're right--it is a nice day...Hey! Stop trying to distract me!

This flying cyclops pear flies in your general direction, and occasionally stops to fire some bouncing bullets at you. Use a Flak Bomb or throw something at him.

Torton

7HP

H1

Sneakers

Torton: Huh?...Oh...I...know...you...You're...um...Let...me...see...
Bomberman: Boy, I knew turtles were slow, but this is ridiculous!

Torton: That's...not...a...nice...thing...to...say...Now...I'm...angry...

7HP!? You'd think this guy, being big and with that much health would be a threat, but he's not. He acts like a bigger, slower Curansee, with his head being the only vulnerable part, and thus landmines are still a good weapon to use on him.

Baddo

5HP

H3

Explosive Core

Baddo: Blood! I want to suck your blood! Give me your blood! Bwa ha ha ha!
Bomberman: Get away from me! I'm not giving you my blood, or anything else!

This guy flutters along either the top or bottom of the screen, occasionally stopping to fire some sonar waves if you're in range. If you get too close to him, he'll teleport to the other part of the screen. Thrown bombs don't effect him, so use Flak Bombs.

Shelterine

5HP

Forest Mine: 1

Flak Bomb

Bomberman: Hey, no fair! Come out of your shell and fight like a real--whatever!

Shelterine: ..........

Bomberman: Hey! Can you hear me in there? I said come out and fight fair!

Shelterine alternates between following you and going in the opposite direction. He's occasionally jump and land, sending four shockwaves either in straight directions or diagonally, but they're easily avoidable. He's lured to bombs, so this is a no-brainer.

Mad Flower

4HP

E3

Flame

Mad Flower: You'd better watch it if you don't want me to bite your head off!
Bomberman: Oh yeah? Do your best, you...You flower, you!

Mad Flower sits in the centre of the area, and doesn't move or attack you directly. Instead, it sends two smaller flower creatures to endlessly chase after you, and although they can be destroyed with two bombs, new ones just spawn. Bomb the bottom of it's stalk and keep running.

Devil Ant

4HP

G2

!?

Devil Ant: This area is under construction! Watch your step!
Bomberman: Hey! Who said you could tear up this place like that!?

Why he's called a Devil Ant is beyond me, as he's pretty simple. He always chases after you, and maybe stops to throw some small stones around himself, or to throw a large stone at you. Use some carefully placed bombs and a luring strategy.

Killer Moth

4HP

G4

Skull

Killer Moth: I can't help myself! I just have to sting something--like you!
Bomberman: Hey! Watch it! Why do you have to take out your problems on me!?

Killer Moth will slowly fly after you, but once you share his X/Y axis, he'll recoil and charge at you for a sting. Despite the fact he flies, he'll still damage you if you collide with him, but regular bombs don't hurt him. Cheap. Flak Bombs or thrown bombs will give him a taste of his own medicine. And since when do moths sting?

Balballoon

4HP

Forest Cave: B

Wide-range Bomb

Balballoon: Zoom! Zoom!
Bomberman: How does he manage to fly like that?

This little dipstick flies around, throwing little spanner projectiles everywhere. Knock him down with a Flak Bomb or a thrown bomb with the Power Glove.

Electro Commander

8HP

Electro Commander: C2

Explosive Core | +1HP

Electro Commander: And I was having fun, too--why'd you have to come and spoil it?
Bomberman: Having fun?... Anyway, give me back my engine!

Electro Commander: You're no fun! I don't like you!

Bomberman: That's fine--just give my back my engine, OK?

Electro Commander: No! This is my engine!

Electro Commander: You can't have it! Leave me alone!

This guy can be nasty if you're careless. He generally wanders around, dropping a bomb or two, and then sometimes he jumps up and fires three homing electric orbs at you, or begins moving at a faster pace to ram into you; all this and he can kick your bombs. His movements are generally predictable, and simply trapping him with landmines or regular bombs will work beautifully.

Pinokion

7HP

Hurricommander: B2

Homing Bomb

Pinokion: Ah, isn't it a lovely day? I just love to sunbathe on days like this!
Bomberman: It is a nice day...By the way, why aren't you melting?

Oh, this guy can be a jerk. As if being damaged by snowballs wasn't bad enough, his room is coated in spikes. Slip on your Safety Shoes and corner him with some bombs to teach him a lesson. And who sunbathes indoors?

Iceal

7HP

F8

Ice Shard

Iceal: It's c-c-cold in here! Let me out of here, p-p-please!
Bomberman: OK, I'll help you, but once you're out I'm taking you back with me!

Iceal: Huh? I want to get out of here, but I don't want to go to jail!

Now this is pathetic. The battle begins with Iceal trapped in ice and unable to attack, but once it's down to 4HP, he breaks out and chases after you at an average speed, with collision being his only attack. Some neatly placed bombs and luring should take care of the poor bugger.

Matango

6HP

Beach Ruins 3: A1

Black Card

Matango: You're going to make me go back, aren't you? I ain't going!
Bomberman: Oh, yeah? We'll see about that!

Matango follows you, and when you're close, stops to do a jig and spray some spores at you. Lay some bombs and lure him into standing in front of them.

Seeballon

5HP

Beach Ruins 2: B1

Clock

Seeballon: Who do you think you're looking at, eh? You want to get slapped around?
Bomberman: Where did you learn your manners? I'm going to teach you a lesson!

Seeballon is yet another monster that follows Bomberman and occasionally stops to do something. In this case, either leap at him or shoot some ink balls at him. Landmines or a wall of bombs both work.

Despider

4HP

F5

Hammer

Despider: Hee hee hee... Hee hee hee...
Bomberman: Stop that creepy laughing--you're scaring me!

He spends most of his time throwing webs, and on the rare occasion follows you, and when he does, landmines can be handy. Be careful when using them, though, as his webs will detonate them, and the arena is fairly small, giving you little room to evade the explosions.

Gell

4HP

G5

Boomerang

Gell: Hoo? Hoo, hoo. Hoo?
Bomberman: 'Hoo'? What's that supposed to mean? Are you a pigeon or something?

This cute little critter bounces around, and stops occasionally to deploy a small blob thing to chase after you. The blob can be destroyed if it's manoeuvred into a wall, but another will be spawned; since Gell bounces, landmines don't work well, but regular bombs work good when placed right.

Gargoyle

4HP

F5

Helmet

Gargoyle: If I win, I get to eat you! Are you sure you still want to fight me?
Bomberman: Sure--but I'm warning you: I don't taste good!

Gargoyle acts like Borey, except he flying rams instead of dashes, he doesn't need to see you to do that, and it doesn't go the full length of the screen. Since he flying rams, landmines don't work well, so try and corner him to a wall with bombs so the explosion hits him while recoiling.

Krabbler

6HP

F6

Aqua Bomb

Krabbler: I'm just a crab, just a lonely old crab...
Bomberman: You can't fool me! You're not a real crab! You're coming back with me!

Krabbler is motionless, but can attack by extending his claws at you, and blowing bubbles that split and multiply. Jump over them and bomb his face.

Skullhead

7HP

Hurricommander: C2

Armored Jacket

Skullhead: I'm not going to lose to a little fellow like you!
Bomberman: I've heard of people being nothing but skin and bones, but just bones?

The unoriginally named Skullhead floats around and occasionally throws bones at you. The battle is unnecessarily harder due to the jumping physics of the Jump Shoes being horrible and falling down the gaps all the time. Other than that, he's easy: Just place two bombs in the centre of the room and move out of the way.

Puuyan

6HP

E8

Flame

Bomberman: Ah ha! There you are! You won't get away from me!

Puuyan: Hmmm? What's all the fuss about? Why are you all worked up?

Bomberman: I'm not worked up--if you ask me, you're too laid back!

This little squirt hides under water most of the time, and occasionally pops up to shoot bullets at you. You could attempt to kill him from the land, but why? You wouldn't collect the item, and it'd be a waste of time. Use the Scuba Gear and Aqua Bomb to corner him.

Dragon Pup

6HP

E6

Full Fire

Dragon Pup: Rrr? Rawr! Rawr!!
Bomberman: Hey! I'm not lunch! Don't you even think about eating me!

An immobile creature, Dragon Pup sits blocking a path and spits fires that aim in your direction. Use the Jump Shoes or Wings to evade the fires and bomb his face in.

Radiobomb Jr.

6HP

Beach Ruins 3: B2

Explosive Core

Bomberman: All right, you! Hold it right there! You're coming with me!

Radiobomb Jr.: wiiiin wiiiin...ga ga ga ga bonk bonk

Bomberman: The way he's going, he's likely to end up killing himself!

Quite possibly the best name ever, Radiobomb Jr. scuttles around, usually crashing into walls and leaving smog behind that damages you. Landmines work like a charm.

Hurricommander

10HP

Hurricommander: C3

Explosive Core | +1HP

Hurricommander: I hope you don't honestly think you can defeat me.

Hurricommander: I suggest you go back now--while you still can...
Bomberman: Who are you trying to intimidate? You don't scare me!

Bomberman: It's you who should be scared--I'd give up now if I were you!

Bomberman: Now give me back that shuttle engine!

Hurricommander: I tried to warn you... Prepare yourself for battle!

This guy is a dick. He flies through the air, launches bombs with large blast radius, can send winds that blow your bombs away, he teleports when you're too close or when you throw bombs at him. Use circular explosion bombs and hope he flies into the explosions, or use Homing Bombs with the Power Gloves, which is risky as he's likely to teleport, so hit him after after he teleports or when he's recovering.

Pygmin

7HP

A8

Platinum Armour

Bomberman: Oh, there you are! Don't run away like that again! Come on, let's go home!

Pygmin: Hey! Don't talk to me like that! I'm not a kid! I'm all grown-up!

This guy varies between easy and annoying. He wanders aimlessly, and stops to shoot homing fire trails at you which take a while to give up, and teleports if you get too close to him. Sometimes he stays on the spot firing flames, making him an easy target, and sometimes he just keeps walking. Alternate between using regular bombs and throwing Homing Bombs at him.

Snaky

6HP

A6

Poison Ivy

Snaky: Ha ha...Think you're man enough to catch me? Good luck!
Bomberman: You're pretty confident for a little toy snake!

Snaky is exactly the same as Borey. Except he's a snake. Landmines still work good.

Crystal Demon

6HP

Desert Cave: B

Glasses

Crystal Demon: Look at my eyes--you are getting sleepy. Your body is getting heavy.
Bomberman: Yawn...Zzz...Ha! Did you think that would work! I'm not sleepy!

Crystal Demon: That's funny...It made me sleepy...Yawn!

He flies along, and throws his little axe at you every now and then, which acts like a boomerang and returns to him. Use the good ol' Homing Bombs.

Hippity-hop

5HP

Pyro Commander: B1

Explosive Core

Hippity-hop: Surprise! Ha ha ha! Did I scare you?
Bomberman: W-w-who, me? No, you d-d-didn't scare me at all! Gulp!

Hippity-hop: I scared you, didn't I? Ha ha! I scared you! Boo!

Stupidly named Hippity-hop does just that around the room, and sometimes does a charging leap in your direction. He usually bounces into your explosions, so you shouldn't have much of a struggle.

Jackenboxx

8HP

D6

Wings

Jackenboxx: Ha ha! If you think you can beat me like everyone else, you're wrong!
Bomberman: Huh? It's easy! All I have to do is just pick you up, pot and all!

Jackenboxx: Oh no! I never thought of that! You stay away from my pot!

This silly looking creature has two forms, of sorts; it's first inside a pot, where it extends it's head out and shoots things at you, but after bringing him to half health, his pot shatters and he slithers along, still shooting things at you. Normally I would suggest landmines, but his projectiles activate them, so corner him with regular bombs.

Shadow Knight

7HP

Pyro Commander: C4

Honey Card

Shadow Knight: On my honor, as a knight, I challenge thee to a duel!
Bomberman: Uh oh...This one looks like he's pretty strong...

Bomberman: I don't think my bombs are going to be much use against him!

Shadow Knight: Of course, as long as I'm not thrown, my armor will protect me!

Bomberman: Huh? What'd you say?

Shadow Knight: Uh oh...

Shadow Knight hops along and throws swords or knives in three directions, but is ultimately quite a pushover if you keep throwing him into walls with no breather space.

Flyball

6HP

B7

Flame

Flyball: I've been waiting for you! Come and get me!
Bomberman: All right, but you asked for it!

Flyball, as the name implies, flies around and drops bombs everywhere. Use some Flak Bombs, or if you're not in the little thin corridor, throw some Homing bombs.

Tinklebear

7HP

Pyro Commander: B3

Flame

Tinklebear: There you are...Think you can take me on?
Bomberman: I don't care if you're a wolf or a tiger, but I'm not afraid of you!

I won't try to make sense of what this thing is, but I'll say he's pathetic. He follows you around, and what does he do? Kicks your bombs if he walks straight into them. That's it. Use Landmines to put this pathetic creature out of sight.

Walking Hat

6HP

Desert Clouds: 2

Leather Armour

Bomberman: Ha ha! What are you going to do Pull a rabbit out of your hat

Walking Hat: No! But I have something else for you!

Rapier wit, Bomberman. Walking Hat walks aimlessly while staying close to you, and can shoot fireballs as well as create a fake double who cannot be harmed. Keep him in the top part and block off an exit with bombs; he won't think of going out the other side.

Sparky

6HP

Pyro Commander: C2

Full Heart

Sparky: Zap! Zap! Zap! How does it feel? Do you like that? Hm?
Bomberman: Ouch! Whoa! Stop! Stop shooting sparks at me--I'm getting numb!

Sparky bounces after Bomberman, occasionally stops to either shoot electricity bolts or to do a large leap. He can leap over bombs, so it's a luring strategy that's required.

Hoopster

#HP

D8

Flame

Hoopster: Hey, you there! Let's dance! Come on and party with me!
Bomberman: All right, let's you and me party!

Hoopster wanders along his little platforms, and shoots his hoop at you which then returns to him; if you trespass on his territory he'll teleport elsewhere, so throw bombs at him from a distance.

Yeti

7HP

B5

Gauntlets

Yeti: Ha ha! Do you want to play with me? What game should we play? Ha ha!
Bomberman: Play? Game? No! I've come here to capture you, not play with you!

Yeti: Tag? Do you want to play tag? Ha ha! OK, you're it!

Despite the fact in tag whoever's It who should be tagging others, Yeti likes to curl up into a ball and keep ramming into you. When he isn't doing that, he actually obeys the rules and runs away. Try and lure him into your bombs by flying over them.

Pyro Commander

10HP

Pyro Commander: B4

Explosive Core | +1HP

Pyro Commander: What're you doing here? You want something from me?
Bomberman: Yeah, I do! I want to put you back where you belong--in prison!

Pyro Commander: What for? I haven't done anything...

Pyro Commander: Why do you want to fight with me?

Bomberman: Oh, forget it! Just give me back my shuttle engine!

Chaos Bomber

10HP (two forms)

Bomber Shuttle

n/a

Mami

10HP

Water Commander: A1

+1HP

Mami: There you are! I've been looking for you!
Bomberman: Really? What are you doing here, Mami?

Mami: Well, I'm a hidden character--pretty cool, huh?

Bomberman: I guess so...

Mami: Come on! Let's go, you and me, one-on-one!

Mami: Oh--by the way, you won't be able to use the menus, OK?

Bomberman: What!? OK, I'm ready, I guess. Let's go!

Despite having lots of health, Mami is harmless, being a girl and all (lol video game stereotypes); the most danger you face is entering without a weapon (or entering with the Landmine, as it's useless against her), as you'll have to reset. She wanders around, and when close, hits you with a hammer, but that only stuns you and deals no damage. I guess that's more of a danger if a bomb of yours is nearby. When she's down to 4HP, she begins shovelling the arena for Mini-hearts, but doesn't know to move out of the way if you block her path with bombs. Easy victory.

Ruisha

10HP

Electro Commander: C2

+1HP

Ruisha: Well, well--fancy meeting you here!
Bomberman: I'll say--what are you doing here?

Ruisha: Oh, a little of this and a little of that. You know, out adventuring.

Ruisha: There's so many interesting people here--I'm having so much fun!

Bomberman: Interesting people? You mean the monsters?

Ruisha: Yes, them! Anyway, as long as I'm here, would you like to duel?

Ruisha: I knew you would want to! Let's get started!

Bomberman: Whoa! Wait just a minute! I didn't...

Ruisha: Ready? Here we go...

Bomberman: Wait! I have a question: I don't suppose I can use menus here either?

Ruisha: Of course not! Ready? Here we go!

Ruisha is more of a challenge than Mami; namely by the fact she can actually attack. Ruisha walks around, plants two Poison Bombs with huge blast radius, and jumps when they explode. She'll react the same to your bombs as well. The trick is to mess up her routine: Try and time your bomb placement so it will explode after hers explode, so when she lands she'll land in your blast (and teleport to another part of the room). Or you can go the easy way and just bring a Remote Control with you and explode your bombs whenever.

Deral

10HP

Hurricommander: C3

+1HP

Deral: Ho ho ho ho! You may not have realised it,

Deral: but the real star of the game is me!
Bomberman: What!? What are you talking about?

Deral: Hm? Are you still here? Shoo! I'm the star now!

Bomberman: No, you're not! This is my game--I'm the main character!

Deral: Well! You don't have to get all upset about it! Tell you what--

Deral: if you can beat me, I'll let you be the star of the game, all right?

Bomberman: Like I've been trying to tell you, I already AM the star!

Deral: I've had just about enough of you! Are you ready to settle this?

Bomberman: Um, what about using the menus...

Deral: No! No, you can't use any menus!

Bomberman: I thought so...OK, then, here we go!

This chick is fast. She barrels around the room, occasionally teleporting, dropping bombs and usually picking them up and throwing them at you. However, she's extraordinarily dippy, and has a habit of getting caught in her own explosions or running straight into yours. You can easily just sit in the corner and fly all the time and she'll just blow herself up. Another easy win.
