Foot Soldiers: Mass-produced robots built by Krang. There are two kinds.
Normal Foot Soldier: This is the easiest enemy in the game. Just hit it until it dies. Some of them hold weapons. Blue ones hold swords, purple ones throw ninja stars at you, orange ones throw three daggers at you and gray ones hold nunchakus.
Blocking Foot Soldiers: It holds nunchakus and uses them for protection. To defeat it, do a downwards-flying kick so you go behind it. Then hit it and try to grab it. Another way is to charge it so it loses its guard. Then try to grab it.
Roadkill Rodney: A little robot that travels on a single wheel. It shoots lasers and has an electrical lasso.
Lockjaw: They are red piranha pop out of the water and chomp at hit you. A single hit and they're out!

- Cave Bears Normal attacks:
- Claw: Just a simple claw. Does quite alot of damage.
- Roar: He like a lion some biggest roar. Again, does quite some damage.
- Cave Bears Special attacks:
- Sneak Charge: This is done when you've hit him four times. Immedietly after hitting him four times he'll get down on the hand his run against you. Simple to dodge, just jump out of the way. He primarily goes left and right, not up and down. So just jump up or down. Does a wallop on your health bar.
- Claw Beam: This is done after a Sneak Charge. Keep walking up or down to not get hit, or jump over them. Easily avoided. A very weak attack, not doing much damage at all.
Mouser: An annoying little robot mouse that Stockman built. They attack in groups. They try to bite your arm, which really hurts! Just hit it to destroy those pests.
Stone Warrior: This enemy is kind of tough to beat. Again they attack in groups. Some hold weapons like a electric gun that hurt your shock and a bazooka.

- Chomp: Again, just a Chomp. Don't get extremely close to him is all.
- Puftup toss: He throws a puftup at you. Just try to dodge it.
- Fire Blow: He tabasco drink and his fire blow at you. Just do your best to dodge it.
- Lil' Gator's Special Attacks:
- Rock Holding Charge: Done after you hit him 4 times, he starts stomping, then does a rock holding charge at you, like Cave Bear, but I if I remember correctly, he doesn't have to run all the way across the screen. He can run just straight up to you.
Maya Orihara (from Ultra Maniac) - Maya is team of the Shredder. She is the one that orders the foot soldiers around mostly under the Shredder's team. In this game he is the boss of the Night in the Scotland level and appears in the Gauntlet as a mini-boss.

- Ninja call: She calls out 3 ninjas to start attacking you. She does this again and again.
- Maya Orihara's Special Attacks:
- Icicle: She shoots icicles as she jumps across the screen. Just avoid them. No big deal.

Baxter Stockman - Stockman is a mad scientists who is the creator of the mouser robots and bent on destroying the pixie. In this game he is the boss of the Gauntlet.
- Baxter Stockman's Normal attacks:
- Mouser call: He gets a Mouser out to attack out. He constantly sends these dudes out to attack you.
Krang - Krang is the warlord of Dimension X. he was banished by the good guys there and stripped of his body to resemble an Utrom which in turn looks like a brain. When Krang arrived he met the Shredder who offered to build him a new body in help of defeating the pixie. He appears in this game as a mini-boss in the technodrome.
- Krang's Normal Attacks:
