The Ammoner is an enemy from Mega Man 8 that appears in the intro stage and in Aqua Man's stage and reappears in Pirate Man's stage in Mega Man & Bass. It will be featured in Mega Man Maker in version 1.8.0.

The enemy resembles an ammonite with a round multi-colored shell. If shot in its face, it will curl into his shell and begin rolling backwards, getting defeated when colliding with the floor over 1 tile drop or walls. If it lands in water while its rolling, it will swim back and forth.

While in a ball it is impervious to attacks and can trigger other Ammoners to go into a ball. If ammoner falls down 1 tile gaps it will roll continuously as if it were a slope. Ammoner will bounce on springs and bounce balls.

Trivia

• When the Ammoner was officially revealed on August 28th, its sprites had a bigger size and had the angular perspective of the games of origin, but due to negative reception, the enemy received new sprites to have an angle more akin to the 8-bit style, a reduction in size to keep the proportions from Mega Man & Bass and a reduction in colors. The updated spriteset was revealed on September 1st.
