'''Bob- | '''Bob-omb''' ({{ja|ボム兵|Bomuhei}}, ''Bomb Trooper'') is an [[item]] that has appeared in every game of the {{uv|Super Smash Bros.}} series, originating from the {{uv|Mario}} series. It acts as a powerful, explosive throwing item in all of its appearances. | ||

Introduced in ''{{s|mariowiki|Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic}}'' (which would later be released internationally as ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''), Bob-ombs are bomb-like enemies that walk around, exploding after a short time. Jumping on a Bob-omb (except in ''Super Mario Bros. 2'') stuns it; in this state, it can be picked up and thrown, defeating enemies and destroying blocks with its explosion, which can also damage the player. If it is not thrown quickly enough, the Bob-omb explodes on its own, also damaging its holder. | |||
In ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario 64}}'', Bob-ombs react to [[Mario]] if he comes close enough to them by igniting themselves and chasing after him. They can also be grabbed, and when thrown they explode immediately upon coming into contact with anything. | |||

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', Bob-ombs will [[meteor smash]] opponents when thrown downward. Otherwise, the knockback is diagonally upward as with previous installments. In addition, Bob-omb explosions will no longer harm the user. Much like [[Gooey Bomb]] before it explodes, characters will have a surprised look if Bob-omb is about to explode near them. | In ''[[Super Smash Bros.

From ''Melee'' onwards, if a [[Sudden Death]] match lasts for too long and a winner hasn't been announced, Bob-ombs will begin to fall from above the stage, instantly exploding upon striking players or the stage. They are intended to end a match more quickly, but can still be grabbed in midair. These Bob-ombs can be avoided by [[camp]]ing in certain places on some stages, but on most stages there is no completely safe position that can be occupied indefinitely. They can also be avoided by stalling on [[edge]]s, but this also cannot be done indefinitely except through [[planking]].

:''These little guys are just what they appear to be: walking bombs. Pick one up and hurl it for an incredibly potent attack. If no one picks them up, Bob-ombs light their own fuses and start wandering around armed and dangerous. In Super Mario 64, Bob-ombs chased Mario down once they noticed him. Pink Bob-ombs are nice and capable of speech.'' | |||
