Mujoe and his gangs of Hige Hige bandits are after the six Bomb Elements
that had been contained in a space freighter. However, they attack the 
freighter and the Bomb Elements scattered and graviated towards the 
planet of Tentacalls. Now Bomberman had been given the order by 
Professor Ein to find all the Bomb Elements that had been scattered on
planet Tentacalls. Its up to Bomberman to retrieve all the Bomb Elements
or fail trying.

World 1: Tentasia
--==++==--==++==--
OctopiWoods 1-1:

The first thing to do here is to collect some powerups. Go forward 
until you find some large vases. Bomb the one near the tree to find a
Bomb Up item. Now go to the four vase and bomb all of them. Make sure
the enemy is dead. Pick up the Speed Up power up. Since your bomb blasts
aren't strong enough, lay the bomb close to the vases. Ignore enemies 
that mope around aimlessly. Go to your left and find two vases near the
river to find a Bomb Up. Follow the yellow road to the giant boulder. 
Pump up a bomb and throw it there. Stay clear of the blast. Go through 
then bomb the vase in front of you to get Bomb Up. Follow the yellow 
road to a tree. Bomb the tree so you can walk on it across the river.
Turn sharply to the left to the rock formation in the river. Pump a bomb
then throw it on the rock formation. Avoid the enemies that try to ram 
into you. If you need a heart, bomb the vase on your right. Now Go to 
your right and jump in the tree stump to earn two power up items. Go 
back into the stump. There is another stump near the stump you jumped
out. This isn't necessary unless you need more health. Also go to the 
right of the log you just crossed and bomb a vase to find Bomb Up. One 
more vase near the last stump. See the boulder? Pump a bomb to push it 
into the river and go down the stairs then up. This is where you will
find your first charabom! 

So far, you should have maxed out bomb capacity, two fire items, and two
speed items. You also should have a charabom named Andlar.

Equip Andlar. He will raise your throwing distance and highness. After
the introduction to your new charabom, go to the left to find two vase.
Bomb them both and grab the power up. Find the four vases near the stump
and bomb them to earn four different charabom feeds. They are important,
used to make your charaboms stronger and stronger. Go in the stump and
kick bombs in the hole, one by one and collect your rewards. Go in 
another stump and follow the yellow road to the main path. Continuing
from the yellow road, don't stray to a stump nearest you. Go in the
stump that is far from you. Avoid the flying creature's droppings and 
proceed. If you see a bridge, walk to the end and wait until a log
drifts by. Run to the other side. Go to the vase to the left and bomb it
and grab a power up. Walk until you see a portal with green light. Play
the mini game to receive a Water Balloon item. Now go to the bridge...
WAIT, where's the water? Not to worry. go to the stair just to the 
furthermost right and Pump a bomb to push a boulder. Don't get out of 
the river yet. After being dragged from the river, bomb three vases, one
of them contains an heart container. Grab it and go into the stump then
cross the bridge. Simply follow the yellow path to the end. Refer to
section 6 for the mini boss strategy. After it is defeated, exit is just
a stride away!

Lake Mensor 1-2:

Bomb ANY vases you walk upon or see. It is important to collect the 
charabom feeds and power ups. Follow the yellow path to the lake. See
the lily hovering in the water? Walk on it. Go in the water and find
another lily platform. Get on it and throw a bomb to the enemy on land.
After the enemy is killed, get on the brown ground (meaning get out of
the water). Here is anohter lily, which goes back and forth. Get on it
and wait until the lily meets another lily. Quickly get on it. Now walk
on the ramp and find a tree surrounded by four vases. Grab the charabom
feed then kick a bomb to the enemy on the lily. After the bomb explodes,
swiftly run to the platform. Now throw a bomb to the lily, stuck in the
vine-like structure. Run and land on it. Get to the other sides. Follow
the yellow path and avoid the plant that waps you flat. Continuing on
the main path, there is a big lily with a purple flower in the middle.
Bomb the purple flower to activate a hovering platform on the right.
Cross it to the lily that goes back and forth. Is your Bomberman quick
enough? If so, run all the way to the lily with a purple flower. Bomb
the flower then run to the big lily that had no purple flower. go in the
water and walk to the platform that you activated. Things are about to
get a little messy here. First turn right and see the platform going 
back and forth and a tree on the other side of the river? Throw a 
pumped bomb on the platform and cross the log that you took down. You'll
find a new charabom: Dorako. I recommend you use Andlar to fight against
him. Make sure Andlar is level 10 or more. Get the charabom and head for
the log then cross it and follow the yellow path. Avoid any enemies. If
you see a tree, go around it. Proceed until you find a orange portal.
Your bombs are merged there! You get a new bomb: Aqua Bomb! Select the
bomb by pressing left on the C Stick. Now test it on the fire. Now lets
cross the river again! Go on the platform that goes back and forth and
bomb the purple flower. Get on the large lily first! Now walk over to
the platform you activated. Cross two small lilies and get on another
platform that goes back and forth. Follow the yellow path to a small
version of loch ness-like monster. Throw two pumped bombs to finish it
off. Cross its back and go for the exit!

OctoStone 1-3: 

Nothing much to do here but to enter the arena and fight
a real mini boss. Refer to section 6 for information on defeating this
boss.

OctoManion 1-4:

Run to your right until you come upon a fence. Walk close to the totem
pole. If it starts to fall, stay clear of it! Walk to the two logs that
smash into each other. Time your run and run through it. You'll come
upon some totem poles. Avoid them when you come closer. Also don't
forget my motto: Avoid enemies and destroy all vase. Proceed until you 
walk upon three logs that swing back and forth. Time it exactly or you
will fall into the groove. If so, try again. If you made it, bravo! 
Now run away from those annoying octoenemies and bomb three large vases
using a pumped up bomb. There is a lightening card in the middle one.
Anyway, proceed to find a green flashing switch. Step on it to be lifted 
up in the air and walk on the platform with a boulder. Pump a bomb and
throw it next to the boulder and run away. After it is down, you can 
cross a big hole! Conquer all the enemies using the boulder (pump a bomb
then throw). Go down and walk up a ramp just ahead of the boulder. To
be safe, throw a bomb to the enemy holding a fire ball and kill it. Use
the advanced front bomb drop technique to cross the gap. Go around until
you meet upon two enemies and use the bomb. go down the ramp and bomb
four vases then walk back into the narrow path. Drop a bomb in the gap.
Cross over quickly and make a pumped up bomb then put it into the gap.
Now follow the main path forwards. Lay a bomb near the two doors to open
it. Run incessantly intil a door stops you. Use a pumped up bomb to open
the giant door. Take a chance to explore grabbing the vases powerups. 
Look around to find a green switch just near where the boulder is. 
Turning the camera is useful here. Go through the door you opened by
pushing the boulder. Throw a bomb to the guy on the tall pole and it
will fall over, opening a path. Run and pump a bomb and use it on the
boulder blocking the main path. Get on the main path and bomb the pole
with a enemy on it to reveal more path. Now demolish the area. Also 
throw a bomb to another enemy on the pole. Walk back to where the 
boulder was. You'll see a gap in the fort wall. Go through it to find a
green switch to the boulder and push it using a pumped up bomb. Run to
the large door that you opened and go through. Avoid any enemies that 
appears and run ahead until a green switch appears into your view. Step
on it to be lifted and pump up a bomb to push a boulder. Now you've
opened the exit path.. but what's this?! A Scythe Praying Mantis?!
Thats not a problem. Throw two or three pumped bombs to finish him off
and head for the exit!

Sukkor Hills 1-5:

Run ahead and evade any enemies. Watch out for the plants that chomps 
Bomberman up. Go up the large ramp. Now the major path to take is to the
 left. Keep going UP. Never go down (That is unless you want to explore
and kill time). Until you reach a boulder, that is on a switch which is 
required to make the airlift work, stop there. Throw a pumped up bomb 
near the boulder and run on the airlift platform. Run around to the top 
until you come across a large valley. Run straight until you come to a 
big arena. See those soldiers? Well they will keep on regenerating. Just
bomb all four gates and kill all the spear-holder enemies. The king will
be angered if you destroy the gates and kill all the soldiers. Now its 
time to take the king down! Use a pumped bomb and lay it on the path of 
where the boulder will go. That way the boulder will smash the bomb
and throw the king off and squish him to death. Exit, here we come!

PaonStadium 1-6:

This is where you fight Elephantsque. This boss's not hard if you know 
all the strategy of taking him down.

--==++==--==++==--
World 2: Octocean
--==++==--==++==--

OctoShoals 2-1:

This level may be a little confusing but I'll try and explain. Just
follow the pebble-like road. Be careful when you meet up with a enemy
that sticks out itself and wait for an victim to squeeze. It is green
and has a 'eye' on its red tip. Keep going until you bump into a 
charabom portal. You'll get Kai-Man! Now follow the pebble-like road.
Avoid those Jellyfishes. They explode on contact. Be careful! Also I
recommend that you equip Kai-Man for his shield protection! Sooner, you
will come upon floors with spikes and bubbles coming out of the floor.
Simply get on the bubble ride and Bomberman'll automatically go the main
path. Just keep going until you see orange fishes. Those fishes slow you
down on your bubble jump and stops you in the air and cause you to fall
in the spikey floor. Time your move so you can get past those annoying
fishes. Now just follow the rocky path and you'll be close to your exit.
If you come upon a red swtich, bomb it. You'll put the wheel thing into
reverse. Do the same process until you cannot find a shell. Go down the
slope on the edge and walk over to the other side to find a shell. Use a
pumped bomb and lay it there so it will explode and press the red button
then you can ride the jet to ge back on the platform and ride the wheel.
Continue ahead until you see a house with a red switch in the door.
Throw a bomb inside and quickly get on the jet and wait until the fishes
disappear. Now jump on the ledge and ride some more jets to the other
side and continue with the rocky path to complete this level.

Blakinc Trench 2-2:

Follow the muddy path to the sunken ship. You'll see a hole on the ship,
in which the doors were supposed to be. Enter to get on the other side.
Go through the narrow path between the ships. Go for the door and....
Hey what's this?! A locked door?! Hmm look for the ghost. Throw a pumped
bomb to finish him off and you can then go in the door-less enterance.
You'll see a couple of jellyfish creatures blocking the bubble jet. Kill
those things and ride on the jet to get on the sunken ship. If you want
to get Ligon, now's your chance. Use a pumped bomb on the thick pole and
cross it to get on the other side and bomb the thin pole to reach Ligon
in a portal. Go back from where you rode the jet. Bomb the thin pole
nearby and go down. Follow the muddy path to a bubble air jet. You'll
get carried from the ground to the higher platform and in the air. Jump
to the platform, just right next to the Jellyfish creature. Ride the 
jets around to get on the higher platform with a bubble jet hole. Jump
to the other side of the walls. Now look for another door-less hole...
Oh not this again. The ghosts. Throw a pumped bomb to put those annoying
ghosts to rest. Now go through the main path. Again, look for the gap 
with a jelly fish. Go through the gap and ride the bubble jet to the
platform on the right. Ride the jet again to get on the sunken ship. But
wait! First get on the platform on the left (the one with a hermit crab)
and throw a pumped bomb to defeat the ghost and get back on the ship. 
Using Andlar, using pumped bomb, throw it over near the thick pole to 
make it fall down and cross. Do the same with the thin pole and cross.
You'll see a bubble jet blowing horizionally, blocking your only path to
get cross. Well, simply throw a bomb to push a boulder just above the
bubble jet hole. It will block the jet air. You can now go ahead safely.
Go ahead until you see another bubble jet hole. Look for a jellyfish
creature nearby. Dematerialize it then bomb on the poles that the ship's
tied on. Get on the bubble jet you saw earlier. Get on the ship and look
for the green switch. Stand on it. Enjoy your short voyage. Then...
BANG! What's up? You go to the back and look around. Not those ghosts
again! Simply throw a bomb to clean them of their sins and send them to
somewhere. Now continue the voyage. When you stop, go look for the thick
pole that fell down when you completed your voyage. Continue ahead until
you fight a mini boss. Just throw three pumped up bombs at him until he
is ship wrecked. I recommend that you stay behind him so you can evade
his every attacks.

Currenis Field 2-3:

Refer to the Boss Strategy section for information on how to beat the 
Beauty Bomber.

Bigbu Iceberg 2-4:

This stage is easy. Don't be fooled. There are puzzles to conquer too.
You should see a green path. Follow it to two purple icebergs with green
on its side. Simply bomb the green side off. The platform will be
active. Take the one that is on the end first. You'll find a bomb merge 
item here then take the other purple iceberg. After you get on the 
other side of the icebergs, don't take another purple iceberg ride. 
Keep on the green path until you walk up a bunny slope. 
Throw a bomb to the end of the see-saw-like iceberg and walk down
the ramp to another iceberg.
Go around and look for an long and large see-saw-like iceberg. 
Throw a pumped bomb here and get a lift to the higher iceberg. 
From here, you'll see bunches of igloo's. 
Kick a bomb in each of them to eliminate the igloo's that house tons of
Hige Hige enemies. Continue until you see a weird walurus with a horn.
Throw a pumped bomb on its sides not the front or back or else it will
kick the bomb back at you. When the platform is raised, proceed. If you
see those walurus creatures again, plant a pumped bomb, just right on
the edge of the platform you're standing on. Not on their platform. Wait
until they are eliminated. You'll see multiples of those creature after
the platform is raised. Kill them all to raise the platform you are
standing on. Now follow the green path ahead then look for a see-saw 
like ice and bomb the green thing that is blocking the water spouts from 
coming out. Now its time to cross it. After crossing, follow the green 
path to another seesaw-like iceberg. Get up on the platform and continue
with the green path. Another seesaw iceberg you'll have to get on the 
another platform. But if you want a quick lightning card, just bomb the
front end (the opposite way of how you get on the higher platform.) Run
through the smallest and shortest tunnel up to the slope and on the left
ramp, bomb the barrel to get a card. Now get out of the area by taking 
the right slope to find a edge with a slope. Now continue with the green
path. You'll encounter two seesaw-like icebergs, go down the stairs and
place a bomb near the non-moving part. Finally, cross the two iceberg to
the other side. Run forward until you see two walurus blocking the green
part of an iceberg. Throw a pumped bomb ON the edge of the purple 
iceberg. Take out two of them. After the procession is done, go up the 
icy stairs and follow the green path to the exit!

Bigbu Caverns 2-5:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------
Mini Boss (Area 1-1): Weird Flower
----------------------------------

First you have to avoid those things that comes from the ground. To
prevent being whittled away by the wind, stay on the left or right.
Throw a small bomb at the mini boss to hurt the mini boss. The 
small green thing will bob sometimes so the mini boss can blow away 
the bombs. Make sure your timing is right or else you won't succeed
into defeating the mini boss. After it is gone, head for the exit!
REMEMBER: Make sure the mini boss's not spinning his petals first.

------------------------------------
Mini Boss (Area 1-3): Megaton Bomber
------------------------------------

Moves:

Bomb throw: Throw two bombs (Duh!)

Mace swing: He swings them around like an helicopter, it will also blow
away the bombs near him.

Mace throw: He'll try to hit you with a mace at a long distance.

Charging dash: He'll try to ram and flatten you with this dash.

Floor Smash: He'll use the mace to smash it against the floor. 

Strategy: Using pumped bombs eight time is ideal to defeat him. But be
aware! He's not dumb as he looks. But his weakness is leaving him off
guard in the back. Using eight pumped bombs, you should be able to 
defeat him. Also avoid all his attack and his attack patterns.

----------------------------
Boss (Area 1-6) Elephantsque
----------------------------

Moves:

Body slam: He'll use this if you are close to him.

Elephant Charge: He will try to squash and ram you.

Bomb kick: If you throw a bomb on his side, he'll kick it off.

Bomb Cannon: He'll use it in a pitiful attempt to bomb you.

Strategy: To defeat him, you have to attack using pumped bombs. If MAX 
appears, you're lucky! The Elephantsque will sometimes use Bomb Cannon.
In that pose, pump a bomb and throw it behind him and it will hurt 
Elephantsque dearly. (get it?)^_^

----------------------------------
Mini Boss (Area 2-3) Beauty Bomber
----------------------------------

Moves:

Bomb Kick: She'll kick the bombs. Only you thought it would go straight?
WRONG! Look again! It bounces and tries to home on at you.

Glorious Shield: She'll shield herself with one of those hovering things
and walk around bluffing. To get rid of her shield, throw a pumped bomb
at her.

Spinning Laser: She'll sometimes use that move to try and fry Bomberman.

Three Laser Special: She'll home all three things's lasers at 
you at a pitiful attempt to fry you once again after she uses the move
Spinning Laser. 

Shield and Laser Surprise: She'll use an combonation of laser and shield
surrounding her. That way She'll walk around safely, out of Bomberman's
reach.

Strategy: As always, pumped bombs works well here. IF she brings up her
shield, use your trusty pumped bombs to leave Beauty Bomber vulnerable.
Now's your chance! A few times around, she'll get smarter and attack you
with many dangerous arensals in her sleeves. Avoid any one of them and
attack her when you have the chance.

---------------------------
Boss (Area 2-6) Bigbu Squid
---------------------------

Bomb cannon: In his first form, he'll use this to try and kill you. 

Squid Missile: Those annoying squid will follow you around at a slow 
rate. Don't be fooled. They attack in swarms.

Squid Missile Barrage: Bigbu Squid will launch the missile rapidly. 
Avoid the attack immediately.

Squid Suck: This attack will suck up EVERYTHING even the squid missiles.

Strategy: First take out all three cannons then throw a pumped bomb on 
the ship to eliminate one cannon. The ship will transform into a Bigbu
Squid. Evade his every attempt to attack. Throw a Ice bomb to make him
shiver and he'll get angered and try to eat you up. Pump up another bomb
so he'll eat the bomb and get harmed. Keep up the pattern until he's 
fried squid rice.

for the exit. STOP!! DOn't walk IN the exit. Just walk near the exit. 
Now turn your camera left (You have to walk on the pole that the king 
last sat on.) You'll see a narrow path leading to a boulder. Push it and 
o all the way until you see flames coming up from the ground. Kick an
Aqua Bomb to extinguish the flames and go for the vases. One of them has
a card.

====================
Area 1-5 SukkorHills
====================

1st Card: Head for the second wooden bridge. Stand on it and bomb the
bridge. Fall on the rapids and let it carry you over to the ledge below.
Bomb the cracked wall and go through the tunnel and use the Wind Bomb
to lift the leaf up into air and in the middle of the five vases 
contains a card.

2nd Card: This is hard to explain but, alas, you can do it. Run past the
first bridge. Before the second bridge, stop there. Go and look for an
area that has a gap with something red. Cross the gap using the pumped
bomb. You also need the Wind Bomb so you can go up the large leaf. After
you get there, cross the gap once again. Then walk past the boulder 
slope and bomb a cracked wall . You should reveal a tunnel and go
in. You ALSO need Marine Eel. Now go to the area where there is a
octoenemy sitting on a switch, while the wooden walls are blocking your
every attempt to throw a bomb at the enemy. Simply throw the homing bomb
just in the gap to bomb the enemy (This may take a few tries). Now get
on the lift platform that you activated. Once you get on the other side,
look for some vases and bomb them to collect a card.

3rd Card: Go ALL the way to the top of the mountain. As you walk through
the valleys, there's a fork in the road. One leading to a mini boss 
arena, other one leads to vases and some enemies. Well, go to the end of
this path and look for a slope on the edge. There is also a flame below
the slope. Use the advanced frong bomb drop technique with Aqua Bomb to
extingush the flame and go down the slope and bomb a vase nearby to get
a card.

bomb the shells to reverse the spinning wheels. You need Pteradon or

bomb then throw the bomb into a gap to jump to the higher platform. Bomb

barrel on a ledge. There should be a transparent bubble jet. Use a
Light Bomb to solidify it and ride the jet to the ledge and add the
card to your collection.

2nd Card: This card is ABSOLUTELY easy to get. Look for the area with
air bubble jets forming an circle with the first card on the middle
platform. Go to the area before this area. There should be a hermit
crab with a barrel, while the air bubble jet is blocking the pathway
to the card. Get on the bubble jet and jump over to the area and bomb
the barrel to get a card.

Area 2-4: Bigbu Iceberg
=======================

1st Card: Find the lone barrel on a very tall pillar. Bomb the walurus
creature and go down the slope quickly. If you don't get on the
platform when it raises then you have to start over. If you did it,
then using a charabom that gives Bomberman the bouncing ability, jump
on a pumped up bomb to get on the platform. Bomb the barrel to get a
card.

2nd Card: The location of the card is just before you walk across the 
two large see-saw-like icebergs. Look for a area that has a tunnel 
below. The area also should have two narrow highest path. The right one
should have a slope on the edge. Go back on the see-saw-like iceberg and
bomb the front end of it to bring it even lower and the path to the 
tunnel will be opened. Walk to the left narrow path and bomb the barrel

then quickly kick the bomb in the hut to blow it up. Bomb the three
vases to find a card.

After this, go feed the fish statue a bomb to turn its back against you.

Thanks to CHAOS CHAO, for helping me on the bombs attribute and its
merge items and the bosses' names (inculding Mini Bosses). He also had
helped me with the cards locations.

Thanks to Ferret5137, for giving me some encouragement in writing this
FAQ, even though he didn't do much.

If you have any troubles, concerns, or any questions please feel free to
send me an email anytime! 
Also I would like for anyone to help me correct my mistake in the FAQs,
the boss names. I'd be grateful ^_^
