ABOUT THE BLACKENING: The Blackening is a very contagious infection that other lifeforms are immune to, except for robotic lifeforms. it had first started after the events of Super Bomberman R 2, the Lugion carrying this rare infection, and it just so happened to first affect Black Bomber, who is now in the REALISM stage. one of the ways to stop Blackening is for an infected bomber to take out their old orb and replace it with a new one. but orb supply has been low, so The Blackening had spread all throughout Planet Bomber. but here's a catch: if the Bomber reaches Stage 3, their orb cannot be replaced. there was an attempt to move all Bombers to Cybertron, but, some of them were infected, spreading to the Cybertronians. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stage 1: ECLIPSE. The Bomber is unable to make bombs and will experience extreme nausea. Not Contagious yet. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Stage 2: ANNEX. Bomber's orb starts to show, the Bomber will start to starve itself. Not Contagious yet. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stage 3: THREESPINES: the Bomber will start to grow a long neck and have violent outbursts. Not Contagious yet. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- STAGE 4: the Bomber will start to vomit out it's own oil, it's body starts to contort. Contagious. ------------------------------------------------------------------- REALISM: The Bomber is fully infected. it's belt and belt icon gone along with it's colors. Will attack on sight. HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS. DO NOT APPROACH. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ STATUSES: Shirobon - Not infected, not immune, Aobon - Infected - Stage 4 Akabon - Not infected, not immune Kiirobon - Infected - REALISM Kurobon - Infected - Stage 3 Konbon - Not Infected, Not immune Midoribon - Infected - REALISM Mizuirobon - Not infected, not immune Mighty - Infected - Stage 1 Magnet Bomber - Infected - REALISM Golem Bomber - not infected, immune Phantom Bomber - Infected - Stage 2 Karaoke Bomber - Not infected, not immune Plasma Bomber - Infected - Stage 4 Miss Purple - Infected - between Stages 3 and 4 Ceres - Infected - Stage 2 Pallas - not infected, not immune Jack - infected - Stage 4
