'''Bob-ulks''' are purple [[Bob-omb]]s that are the strongest and most armored variant of Bob-ombs. Their name is a word play on "bulk", meaning very large. Bob-ulks are solely found in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''{{'}}s [[Pit of 100 Trials (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Pit of 100 Trials]]. [[Goombella]] says that they are the biggest Bob-ombs she has ever seen, despite their slightly weaker variant, [[Bulky Bob-omb]], appearing slightly larger in the [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door bestiary|Tattle Log]].
'''Bob-ulks''' are the largest of the [[Bob-omb]] species, and are purple to boot.  They are also the most powerful, the most armored, and basically the most everything. Bob-ulks are solely found in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door |Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door's]]'' pit of 100 trials. They're related to [[Bulky Bob-omb]]s. "Bob-ulk" is word play on "bulk", meaning very large.


Just like their relatives, Bob-ulks always go through the following pattern of moves:
== Stats and Tattle Information ==
#Lights its fuse
*'''HP:''' 10
#[[DEF-Up|Increases defense]] by 3
*'''Attack:''' 4
#[[POW-Up|Increases attack]] by 3
*'''Defense:''' 2
#[[Charged|Charges]] attack by 9
*'''Locations:''' [[Pit of 100 Trials]] (Levels 91-99)
#Explodes
*'''Tattle Number:''' 88
*'''Tattle Log:''' A really, really big Bob-omb that explodes after 4 turns.  Take it out before then or you'll be peeling your lips off the ceiling!
*'''Tattle:''' That's a Bob-ulk.  That's... easily the biggest Bob-omb I've ever seen! It won't attack, but once its fuse is lit, it'll explode after a while. So the problem is... how to beat it before it goes off. I mean, its bomb attack has a power of 16!  That's no joke.  Seriously, watch out for that. Just go all out to beat it.  Pull out all the stops. Or you could just set it off early with fire or explosions.  Your call.


Also like their relatives, Bob-ulks can be instantly detonated with any fire, lightning, or explosive attack (except [[Clock Out]]), dealing 4 damage plus any accumulated boosts to Mario, his partner, and all other enemies. The explosion creates a chain reaction with other Bob-ulks. Their explosions cannot be [[Guard]]ed or [[Superguard]]ed. In the [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|Nintendo Switch remake]], no [[Star Point]]s will be gained if they are destroyed in this way.

Freezing them temporarily stops their attack progression, allowing previous buffs to wear out before new ones are added, and it will also put out their fuse, forcing them to waste a turn reigniting it. Stopping them in time also halts attack progression.
