'''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.
'''Bombshell Bills''' are the golden relatives to [[Bullet Bill]]. Bombshell Bills are much stronger than Bullet Bills, and so are positioned so as to guard extremely important areas, such as [[Bowser's Castle]] and the [[Palace of Shadow]]. Bombshell Bill are fired by [[B. Bill Blaster|Bombshell Bill Blasters]]. The abbreviation of "Bombshell Bill" is "B. Bill." Bombshell Bills only appear in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' and ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door]]''.


===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===
Interestingly, in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', during an attack called "Blazer", [[Smithy]] (in tank form) would fire a golden Bullet Bill similar in appearance to Bombshell Bills.
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.
