Description[]

In Super Bomberman 4, while Bagura was planning his revenge, White Bomberman enjoyed a moment of rest with Black Bomberman and their friends while returning home on a space shuttle. All passengers were unaware that the Four Bomber Kings were approaching the shuttle, and they strike the ship. A time hole in space is created that transports White and Black to the prehistoric age. Hammer Bomber was part of the operation through time to change the past and capture White and his friends, capturing Red, Blue, and Green. Being the Bomber King who caught the greatest number of White's friends, he was the first villain to confront White, appearing as the boss of the Primeval Era.
