* BadFuture: The fifth area, Mujoe World / Mr. Meanie's Future World. However, unlike most examples of this trope, it doesn't look dystopic in the slightest, but like a futuristic sleek metropolis instead.



* CombiningMecha: The Gattain Alpha and Beta, a pair of robotic enemies found in the last world, which fly and walk, respectively. If they encounter each other, they will combine into a pure Gattain, a strong robot with a short range attack that can destroy soft blocks, and takes two hits to destroy.

Added DiffLines:

* EvolutionaryLevels: The dinosaurs have three levels, though based on life stages (baby, teen, adult). The more grown up they are, the better their ability is. To make them grow, you either have to gather points until a meter is completely full (Normal Mode) or gather more eggs (Battle Mode).

* BreathWeapon: One of Crator's attacks is an icy breath that stuns Bomberman and freezes any bombs in its way.


Added DiffLines:

* EliteMooks: While the Hige Hige Bandits from World 1 are TheGoomba, those encountered in the following worlds are this:
** The ones you enocunter in Stage 2-6 either turn into a tree or a rock at random. If they turn into a rock, they can't be killed.
** The ones in Wild West World are either manning turrets that shot bombs (you can kill them and use the turret yourself), or drive a lizard-shaped vehicle that eat bombs. The latter also take two hits to kill.
** The ones in Dino World, the second portion, will bury themsleves under the snow if they see a bomb, and can't be killed if they're buried.
** The ones in the last world ride a MiniMecha that shoots missiles, take two hits to destroy, and once they do they drop the pilot, a normal Bandit.


Added DiffLines:

** One of Crator's attacks involve spinning and move around the battleground at fast speed, bouncing against the walls. He will become dizzy after a while.
