The '''X Bomb''' ({{ja|十文字爆弾|Jūmonji bakudan}}, ''Cross Bomb'') is an [[item]] that appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
The '''X Bomb''' ({{ja|十文字爆弾|Jūmonji bakudan}}, ''Cross Bomb'') is an [[item]] that appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. When detonated, it releases a cross-shaped explosion that hits multiple times, either aligned diagonally or orthogonally. It can detonate after it is thrown or struck. Unlike most explosive items, the owner is immune to its attack, but only if it is thrown; if struck with an attack, its explosion will damage all players regardless of who struck it. The explosion can be [[DI]]'d out of to avoid being launched by the last hit, on 0.5× [[launch rate]], it can be almost effortlessly be DI'd out of, in fact, a player can even use a form of travel with the DI.
 
==Origin==
[[File:Meteos X Bomb.png|150px|thumb|left|An X Bomb in ''Meteos'', idle (top) and exploding (bottom).]]
The origin of the X Bomb is muddled. In terms of the bomb's design, it originates from ''{{s|icaruspedia|Kid Icarus: Uprising}}'', where it was an item that Pit could throw at opponents, which then fires four balls of energy in a cross pattern that proceed to bounce around. However, the item's behaviour in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series is to deal instant damage along two lines; this behaviour instead originates from the ''{{s|wikipedia|Meteos}}'' series (which predates ''Uprising'', notably both games were directed by Sakurai), where the X Bomb would destroy all Meteos diagonal to itself upon detonation. Despite this, the Miiverse post that revealed the item specifically says the X Bomb is not from ''Meteos''.
 
It is worth noting that the X Bomb from ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'' is called a "Cross Bomb" in Japan, which in ''Meteos'' is a different item altogether that destroys all Meteos in its row and column. The X Bomb in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series exhibits this behavior simply by rotating differently.
