'''Dark Fawful Bombs'''<ref>[[Prima Games|Prima]]'s Official Premiere Edition game guide to ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' (approved by Nintendo)</ref> are enemies that appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]''. They are huge, purple [[Bob-omb]]s with an imprinted black star on their face and a lit fuse. They rarely appear, but when they do, they always appear alongside two [[Dark Fawful Guy]]s that carry them. They only appear in battles where at least one [[Naplock]] or [[Dark Trashure]] was present at the start, but not if any [[Dark Mechawful]]s were in the battle.

'''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==
The Dark Fawful Guys appear with the Dark Fawful Bomb at the top of the screen, waiting for an opportunity to drop the bomb onto [[Bowser]]. If Bowser uses his vacuum ability, he can swallow the Dark Fawful Guys, meaning that [[Mario]] & [[Luigi]] must battle them. As they are so high in the air, however (they are seen on the upper screen and not the touch screen), the player must rapidly press {{button|ds|X}} many times in a row. Without the Dark Fawful Guys supporting the weight of the Dark Fawful Bomb, it lands on the other enemies, creating a giant purple explosion that deals massive damage to them. If Bowser does not eliminate the Dark Fawful Guys, they eventually drop the Dark Fawful Bomb on top of him and cause massive damage.

[[Shroob-ombs]] from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'' bear a strong resemblance to Dark Fawful Bombs. They both are larger than normal Bob-ombs, both are purple, and both are carried by other enemies.
==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*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}}
*It is the only big enemy that [[Bowser]] can fight that does not drop a [[Blitty]].
*It is also mistaken as "Bowser" in the game's coding, since it does not normally show up as a target.
