Bomb Man

"Not looking your usual cool self, Guts Man-- Fighting, fireworks, festivals... That's where it's at!"

"I'll show you! It's the beauty on the inside that counts!"

- Bomb Man

Bomb Man (ボンバーマン) is a demolition Robot Master from the original Mega Man series, with the ability to create powerful Hyper Bombs and throw them with startling accuracy, allowing him to destroy most targets with ease. He was created by Dr. Light for mining and construction purposes, as well as to blast away debris so that land could be cleared for construction projects, working in tandem with Guts Man. Bomb Man is a playable character in Mega Man Powered Up and Mega Man's Soccer. He can be fairly reckless with his explosives, due to his relative immaturity, and in Mega Man Powered Up, was shown to have a generally fun-loving, immature and sometimes quite sarcastic personality.

Strategy
During the fight against Bomb Man in Mega Man Powered Up, when he uses his critical attack, if he says, "That's a bit harsh," that means he will throw a big bomb directly at you. If he says "I'll show you," that means he is going to throw a big bomb; however, it will bounce across the room rather than explode upon direct contact. To dodge the directed throw bomb, just get out of the way when Bomb Man throws it at you. To dodge the bouncing bomb, just run under it when you have a chance before it touches you.
