The Hocotate Bomb (ドルフィン爆弾, Dolphin Bomb) is an item from the Pikmin universe set to appear in Super Smash Bros. 4. It is a new explosive item, modelled after the Hocotate Ship, that will fly offscreen into the sky, and then crash down when "least expected", seemingly indicating it will come down at random.

Origin

The item appears to have two separate but related origins. The design of the item is clearly based on the Hocotate Ship from Pikmin 2, and its behaviour seems to be the same as End of Day, Olimar's Final Smash. However, there is also an item of identical effect from Kid Icarus: Uprising - the Boom Rocket.
