Bomb Squad is a default move that can be performed by Admiral Bobbery in the game Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door at the cost of 3 FP. This move's Action Command involves a moving cursor that indicates the angle at which the bomb will be thrown, somewhat similar to Shell Shot from the prequel, however the bombs are affected by gravity and will land on the ground. The player needs to press the 
button at the three times the cursor corresponds to the desired angle. If this is not performed within the time limit, the remaining bombs will be automatically shot in haphazard fashion. The bombs detonate 2 turns after being placed, before Mario's attacking phase.[1] Each bomb deals 3 explosive damage regardless of Bobbery's Rank, although they are affected by defense or elemental weakness. Each bomb has a specific hitbox and can hit multiple enemies or enemy segments (such as both Cortez's gem and bone pile) at once, as well as hit enemies at any elevation. If placed too close, the bombs can even damage Mario or the partner.
As the third bomb is midway to being thrown, the player can press again to perform a Stylish move.
The bombs explosions occur based on positioning. The biggest priority is given to the bomb closest to the middle from the left, afterwards priority goes from middle to the far left, and then from the middle to the right. Bombs can also cause chain explosions which will be given priority left to right regardless of proximity to the middle.[1] These chain explosions can even detonate bombs that were not meant to detonate on this turn, resulting in up to 6 explosions in a single turn.
