A Bomb Brother is one of the five types of boss ghosts encountered in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon's ScareScraper. Two of them may be randomly found on every floor that is a multiple of five, barring the top floor. They are boss versions of Greenies.

Appearance[edit]

Bomb Brothers look like normal Greenies, except they are much larger and have yellow skin rather than green. Their skin is darker than that of Gold Greenies. There are several different variations of Bomb Brothers, but they all attack in the same way.

Abilities[edit]

Bomb Brothers attack similarly to normal Greenies. When they first appear in battle, they will be carrying a large bomb. In order to make them vulnerable, they 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 explode shortly after. While a Bomb Brother is being vacuumed using the Poltergust 5000, it will drop small bombs that will detonate if they come in contact with one of the Luigis or if the fuse burns out. Bomb Brothers can also attack by punching the Luigis. During the battle, different variations of Greenies, such as normal Greenies, Greenies holding objects, masked Greenies, or even Strong Greenies will appear during the battle to hinder them.
