* PurposelyOverpowered: Proto Man is a metal grinder on legs whose gun can guard crush anything that isn't called "Big Eye" (which it can oneshot anyway) and who runs and jumps higher than anyone else. Given how difficult he is to unlock [[spoiler:without just downloading the Final Data]], though, this is more than likely nothing resembling an accident.

Added DiffLines:

* DamageSpongeBoss: Several. Not so much with Mega Man himself, but when you start with the Robot Masters, there are a LOT of matchups where the boss is only going to take 1 damage a hit, and especially when it's because you're fighting the Robot Master yours is weak to (since they'll also hit you like a sack of bricks), you're in for a lot of trouble.

* DigAttack: One of Guts Man's attacks is to dig into the ground, then jump out from under the player carrying a Guts Block. He only uses this attack in New Style Mode, and only if the difficulty isn't set to "Easy". In "Hard", he does this three times in a row, the first two times immediately throwing the Guts Block upon surfacing.

* ShownTheirWork: Elec Man respects how much energy Fire Man puts out in Watts. Anyone who has taken a basic science lesson knows that heat energy is measured in Joules. However, you CAN measure a flame's Heat Release Rate (HRR) in Watts since a Watt equals a release rate of one Joule a second.
