'''Dark Fawful Bombs'''<ref>{{cite|author=Browne, Catherine|title=''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' PRIMA Official Game Guide|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|date=September 14, 2009|page=170|isbn=978-0-307-46565-8}}</ref> are enemies that appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and the remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]''. They are huge, purple [[Bob-omb]]s with a lit fuse and black stars on their bodies, including a large one with red eyes imprinted on their face; this makes them somewhat resemble the [[Dark Star]]. They are always accompanied by two [[Fly Guy]]-like [[Dark Fawful Guy]]s that carry them, similar to [[Shroob-ombs]] and their [[Support Shroob]]s from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. Similar large green Bob-ombs with [[Fawful]]-like glasses appear during the battle against the [[Tower of Yikk]], used by [[Crawful]]s. Dark Fawful Bombs rarely appear in [[Peach's Castle]] after its takeover, only showing up in battles where at least one [[Naplock]] or [[Dark Trashure]] was present at the beginning; they will also appear alongside [[Dark Mechawful]]s in ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey'', but only if Dark Trashures are present as well.

==Battle==
Dark Fawful Guys appear with the Dark Fawful Bomb at the top of the upper screen, waiting for an opportunity to drop the bomb onto [[Bowser]]. Bowser must use his [[Vacuum Block|vacuum]] ability to swallow the Dark Fawful Guys, allowing [[Mario]] & [[Luigi]] to battle them; however, their height means that the player must rapidly press {{button|ds|X}} more than usual. If Bowser does not eliminate the Dark Fawful Guys, they eventually drop the Dark Fawful Bomb on top of him and cause massive damage. Once the Dark Fawful Guys are inhaled, the Dark Fawful Bomb lands on the other enemies, creating a giant purple explosion that deals massive damage to them.

==Notes==
*The Dark Fawful Bomb shows up as "Bowser" in the game's coding, likely because it does not normally register as an attackable target.{{ref needed}}

==Trivia==
*Dark Fawful Bombs are quite similar to [[Shroob-omb]]s from ''[[Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', as they both are larger than normal Bob-ombs, both are purple, and both appear with enemies who carry them. As ''Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' is the sequel to ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'', it may be possible that the Dark Fawful Bombs are based off Shroob-ombs.
