The '''Smart Bomb''' ({{ja|スマートボム|Sumāto Bomu}}, ''Smart Bomb'') is an item that appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. It is one of the most powerful thrown items in the game. Once it hits an opponent, travels a certain distance, or gets attacked, it produces a large, slow explosion that envelops a big range and damages everyone inside in increments of 1%  for about three seconds with a total damage of about 30%. In ''Brawl'', [[characters]] caught in the blast can shift their position (and possibly even [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZObdGfkvybE#t=16s escape]) using [[Smash DI]]; in ''SSB4'' this is essentially impossible due to a reduction of the Smart Bomb's SDI multiplier, they can only possibly escape by hitting the exact edge of the explosion. The bomb does a great deal of damage but generally has the knockback to [[KO]] only around 150%.

There is a small chance that a Smart Bomb fails to explode; instead of going off it makes a distinctive echoing noise and travels through its target, causing [[flinch]]ing but no [[knockback]]. A dud Smart Bomb will still explode when attacked and may explode at a random time, even when picked up again. In ''SSB4'', it will not explode by itself, however, if a player is holding it, although it may detonate almost immediately if that player throws it.

:{{Flag|North America}}''Attack or throw this bomb if you want to make a big impact on the battle. The explosion just grows and grows, and despite the "smart" name, this bomb will hurt the thrower too! Sometimes you may throw what turns out to be a dud, but don't go hitting it in anger—it'll still go off in your face!''

:{{Flag|Europe}} ''Throw or hit this to set off a devastating explosion. The blast radius is so wide that your foe will have almost nowhere to run. Unfortunately, the same goes for you, so move fast! Sometimes they don't explode when you throw them, but if you hit them - even by accident - they definitely will!''

==Origin==

The Smart Bomb originates from the ''Star Fox'' series. It was originally named the Nova Bomb. In ''[[Star Fox 64]]'', it could either be locked on to opponents or triggered to explode after launch by pressing the button a second time. It also would explode on impact, or after it traveled a certain distance. It did not hurt [[Fox McCloud|Fox]] or his wingmen.

*While the Smart Bomb can equally harm the player who detonates it in the ''Smash'' games, it cannot harm its user or its teammates in any of the ''Star Fox'' games.
