*While the item is from ''[[icaruspedia:Kid Icarus: Uprising|Kid Icarus: Uprising]]'', and the item's original announcement specifically said the item is not to be confused with the X Bomb from [[wikipedia:Meteos|Meteos]], the item's explosion is shaped like the Meteos version (two lines of fire) and not the ''Uprising'' version (four balls of energy that are fired in a cross formation and bounce around).
