Information[]

Physical description[]

Powers and abilities[]

Punch: The Bomb Brothers can punch Luigi, dealing 20 damage

Bomb Brother: Bomb Brothers can throw bombs at Luigi which explode, dealing 20 damage.

Invisibility: Bomb Brothers can become invisible.

History[]

Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon[]

Bomb Brothers first appear in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, as a ScareScraper-exclusive boss. Like all bosses, the Bomb Brothers are randomly fought on every five floors, barring the top floor.

Battle[]

When the Bomb Brothers first appear in battle, they will both be carrying large bombs in their hands. In order to make them vulnerable, the player must shine the Dark-Light Device on them or remove the bomb from their hands. When they drop the bomb, it will have its fuse lit and will explode shortly afterwards, dealing massive damage in a wide area. The Bomb Brothers can also attack by punching the Luigis, dealing 20 HP of damage per hit.

Once a player manages to stun a Bomb Brother and begins vacuuming him, he will attempt to flee like a normal Greenie, but will also start dropping small timed bombs onto the floor that explode. If a Luigi is caught in the blast radius, they will suffer light damage and lose hold of whatever ghost(s) they were vacuuming. In addition to that, if one of the Bomb Brothers is under attack but the other one is still active, he will drop his bomb and move over to attack the Luigi(s) vacuuming the other Bomb Brother, trying to save the other and work together.

Support[]

During the battle, the Bomb Brothers will be supported by normal Greenies, Greenies with equipment , and Strong Greenies (when one or both of the Bomb Brothers are heavily damaged).

Luigi's Mansion Arcade[]

While Bomb Brothers do not appear in Luigi's Mansion Arcade, all of its variants do, and each variation can be encountered randomly in the Old Clockworks and the Treacherous Mansion.

Trivia[]

  • Very rarely, one of the Bomb Brothers may pick up something else than a bomb. He will carry that item normally until he drops it.[citation needed]
  • In the ScareScraper mode of Luigi's Mansion 3, It is also possible to find a version of ghost called Bomb Ghost that have a great resemblance to the Bomb Brothers, and it's most likely that their design was based on them.
