Bombshell Bill
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 Bombshell Bill Blasters. The abbreviation of "Bombshell Bill" is "B. Bill." Bombshell Bills only appear in Paper Mario, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, and Super Mario Sunshine.
In Super Mario Sunshine, they are only found outside Pinna Park occasionally being shot by a Monty Mole. When defeated, it gives off eight coins instead of the usual two, and is a great way to get the 100 Coin Shine Sprite. Gold Bills can be defeated like any regular Bullet Bill, by spraying it with FLUDD or jumping on it.
