The Smart Bomb is an item in SSBB. It is probably one of the most powerful thrown items in the game. Upon impact with an opponent or obstacle, or after traveling a certain distance through the air, the smart bomb will explode in a circular blast, getting larger and larger until it stops. It deals fair damage and has high knockback. If caught in the blast, you or your opponent's damage meter will quickly rise until the explosion stops, at which point you or your opponent will get sent flying from knockback. It seems you can only DI out of the blast by moving above or below it, but not left or right.

Positive Qualities with the Smart Bomb:

When thrown at groups of opponents, it leaves them incapacitated for a short while.

If opponent(s) damage is/are around 45% and up, the smart bomb will easily bring their damage meter to the hundreds, and possibly KO them.

The Smart Bomb, when thrown at a smash ball, will stop opponents around it from claiming it, and usually it will break it, claiming it for your own use.

Negative Qualities with the Smart Bomb:

It is very easy to misjudge the radius of it's blast, and get caught in the explosion.

The bomb may be a dud and not explode on impact or a short time after being thrown. A dud bomb may have a delayed detonation at any time, even if being held after its initial throw.

Striking a foe holding the bomb may cause them to drop it, and subsequently damage it and prompt it to explode, enveloping both.

Warning: When using the smart bomb throw at least 6 character lengths away or you will be caught in the edge of the blast, but the bomb will gradually move you towards the center, causing more damage.

The Smart Bomb comes from the Star Fox universe.
