'''Bombshell Bills''' are golden relatives of the [[Bullet Bill]]s fired by [[Bombshell Bill Blaster]]s. Bombshell Bills are much stronger than Bullet Bills and are positioned so as to guard extremely important areas.
==History==
===''Paper Mario''===
In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', Bombshell Bills appear in [[Bowser's Castle]] and are a dark yellow. They have low health but high attack power and are spawned once per turn by each [[Bombshell Bill Blaster|B. Bill Blaster]] present. While strong, they are highly susceptible to status effects such as [[Dizzy]] and [[Tiny (status effect)|shrink]], as well as moves such as [[Air Lift]] and [[Hurricane]] that can remove them from battle immediately. Like the game's normal Bullet Bills, they are instantly defeated after they attack, even if they miss or are guarded against.

Bombshell Bill's [[Tattle]] states that their explosions get bigger as their HP gets lower, which implies they do more damage the less HP they have, even though this is not the case.

===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===
In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and its [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|Nintendo Switch remake]], Bombshell Bills appear in the [[Palace of Shadow]] and are a much brighter yellow. They are still highly susceptible to being removed from battle, this time using [[Flurrie]]'s [[Gale Force]], as well as several status effects, but they now have higher defense. [[Superguard]]ing can now also be used to defeat them instantly when they attack.

==Trivia==
*[[List of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga pre-release and unused content|Unused sprites]] for a similar golden Bullet Bill are present in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. Its Bill Blaster would have been raised compared to its normal variant and have a longer attack charge animation.

*In Super Paper Mario there are unused sprites for large Bombshell Bills and the blasters they are fired from. It is unknown when they would've been used.
