Dr. Mechado (Dr. メカード) is the true ultimate boss of Saturn Bomberman. After Mujoe's defeat, he tries to escape via balloon. In its first phase, it is protected as a force field generated by twenty elite allies. In its second phase, his head leaves his body to board his giant mecha on a unicycle.

First phase

The beginning of this fight is against an 18 Battle Grunts troop.

• The yellow waves are helpless and will do nothing but wander slowly and aimlessly through the arena.

• The blue wave can now fire a slow moving laser that can detonate bombs and harm players on contact, but can only be fired down.

• The red wave is identical to blue, but always slightly faster.

All Grunts takes 1 hit to destroy and they worth 100 points upon destruction.

Second phase

Once the Grunts are defeated, Dr. Mechado will connect to a giant robot that rides a unicycle. If the player dies to this form, he will have to restart the Grunts again. The robot can only move sideways by jumping 2 tiles at a time, and has a variety of attacks that it can use:

• Fan - The robot will wave a fan, pushing all players and bombs in a specific direction.

• Bomb Robots The mecha deploys waves of 4 bomb robots that will try to follow the player; they only see every second intersection and detonate after 15 seconds with an explosion radius of 3 Fire. Each is worth 100 points in destruction;
  • The mecha produces 7 robot bombs in balloons that eventually fall and explode on the floor. Often followed by waving the fan.

• Bouncing Balls - The mecha places two pink balls to bounce around the arena, detonating any bombs they touch. The balls take 2 hits to defeat, but will burn on their own after a while.

• Projectiles - The mecha creates a cannon to launch 5 projectiles in each vertical corridor.
