Pounder

Pounders are recurring smashing enemies mostly found in cavern levels such as Lapis Caverns and Ruby Caverns. They are commonly found at the tracks in the levels, which will attempt to jump on the characters by pounding on them with their large hands while going on the train track. The player must be fast, as you will fall if they pound you. They also cannot be defeated by the characters normally as they will pound you if you attempt to do so, even Toro cannot defeat them. All can still be killed easily by Diamond Ram or Mecha Deer, however.

Train Stages
The players have to rush super fast on the train track stages of each of the levels to avoid getting pounded on by them, making these stages really difficult to beat.
