Bob-omb

It has been requested that this article be rewritten and expanded to include more information.

“So, what's the password?”

Bob-ombs are living, moving explosive devices. They are generic enemies who first appeared in Super Mario Bros. 2, and have appeared in nearly every Mario game since then. Their appearance, intelligence, and ally/enemy status differs widely from game to game. They are usually either blue or black colored, but some variations are pink/red. They will also flash red and sometimes make beeping sounds if about to explode.

They should not be confused with Bombs, non-living explosives that have been faded out of the Mario series in favor of Bob-ombs.

History

Super Mario series

Super Mario Bros. 2

Bob-ombs first appeared in the Mario series in the game Super Mario Bros. 2, where they were semi-common enemies that worked for the tyrannical frog Wart. They were often dropped from the sky by the vulture-like Albatosses. After landing they would walk around for a while before exploding, doing damage to anyone nearby. Some Bob-ombs could be found (instead of Vegetables or Coins) when a red tuft of grass was pulled up. If this happens, the Player must throw the Bob-omb away before it explodes in the hero's hands.

In the Japanese version, these Bob-ombs are known as "Bobs," meaning they are slightly different from the Bomhei (Bob-ombs) of later games.

Super Mario Bros. 3

Bob-ombs appeared again in Super Mario Bros. 3. Here, if Mario stomped on one, it would become capable of being carried. However, it will explode in in a few seconds, even if Mario's still carrying it! If left alone, it will explode anyway.

However if the player bounces on it again it will bounce away, sometimes destroying other enemies or walls. Bomb-ombs take 5 seconds to explode after being bounced on.

Super Mario World

Bob-ombs in Super Mario World.

Bob-ombs can once again be seen working for Bowser in Super Mario World. In this game Bob-ombs walk quickly back and forth before they flash pink and then explode. Like Green Koopas, they will fall off edges instead of changing direction before they fall off, like Red Koopas. If Mario or Luigi jump on the Bob-omb before it explodes, it will become stationary and lifeless, and can even be picked up with no danger until it explodes in the user's hands. The same thing also happens if one of them hits it with a Cape. Some Bob-ombs will also appear floating in bubbles. These bombs will resume their normal activities if the bubble is popped by a touch from the player. The bubble-encased Bob-ombs appear only in one level: Forest of Illusion 3.

When Yoshi eats a Bob-omb in this game, he will simply swallow it, like most enemies. If he stomps it, it will instantly be destroyed, and cannot be used as a weapon. Yoshi can also eat the bubble-covered Bob-ombs even when they are still in their bubble.

If Mario or Luigi enter a pipe while carrying a Bob-omb, that Bob-omb will not detonate for the remainder of the level.

Super Mario 64

A Bob-omb from Super Mario 64.

Bob-ombs are common enemies in Super Mario 64 (and Super Mario 64 DS). They first appeared in Bob-omb Battlefield, a level that is ruled by the Big Bob-omb.

Bob-ombs attack pattern in this game is different and more aggressive than before. When Mario, Luigi, Wario, or Yoshi is spotted by a Bob-omb, the Bob-omb will light their fuse and then rush towards the hero from behind, so that when it explodes it will damage the character. If the Bob-Omb gives chase and the hero can run from it for a while, it will explode and no harm would be done. The Bob-ombs can be beaten simply by circling behind them, picking them up, and throwing them. Kicking the bombs are equally effective. When they hit the ground they will promptly explode, away from the hero. Then, they would leave behind a coin for the player to get. A pink sub-species of Bob-ombs called Bob-omb Buddies also appear in the game. In DS version only, Bob-ombs also appear when a plumber hits a ! block without his cap on. They would also appear in a ! block if the Power Flower would help him get the star (such as in Snowman's Land. If Mario hits the ! block closest to the snowman, a Bob-omb will fall.) Explosions caused by the bombs can also damage enemies within its blast.

Super Mario Sunshine

File:BombSunshine.jpg

A "digital" Bob-Omb.

Bob-ombs also appear in Super Mario Sunshine, but much differently than in any other game. They are black orbs with a digital interface. After a certain amount of time, the "eyes" will start a countdown from three, exploding at zero. But, if Mario sprays them with F.L.U.D.D they will turn blue and freeze, and can then be picked up and thrown by Mario. They will, however, still explode in this form.

They appear in three areas: first in Pinna Park and later in Noki Bay. Both times, they are under the control of Monty Mole, who throws the bombs from his tank once Mario gets too close for the mole to shoot Bullet Bills. To defeat the Monty, the player must spray water on the Bob-ombs and then pick them up and throw them at the tank. The player must do this three times, and the Monty Mole will be defeated. They also appeared in Episode 5: King Boo Down Below of Sirena Beach. They would sometimes appear when King Boo spins the slots to the enemy pictures.

Super Mario Galaxy

File:Galaxy Bob-omb.jpg

Bob-ombs later appear in Super Mario Galaxy. Here, they are thrown from Bob-omb Dispensers in the ground. They can be picked up by Mario by a Spin. When picked up, they will start to light up and flash, and must be thrown with another Spin before they explode. They can be used to destroy many things, including cages and Incoming Chomps. They appear in two different varieties: ones that have legs and can walk around, which are less common, and ones that do not have legs and don't move on their own. The Bob-ombs take 9 full seconds to explode.

The Bob-ombs are used prominently in two "Bob-omb Blasting" minigames: one in the Battlerock Galaxy and one in the Dreadnought Galaxy. They are used when a Gearmo asks Mario to get rid of a bunch of trash piles for him. It must be done within a time limit of 30 seconds, however, and the prize for winning is a Power Star.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii

Bob-ombs once again make an appearance as generic enemies in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. In this game they usually endlessly spawn from warp pipes, and walk around aimlessly, until they explode. they make their first appearance in the World 3 castle.

Super Mario Bros. film

The Bob-omb featured in the Super Mario Bros. movie.

A Bob-omb also appeared in the Super Mario Bros film. Unlike in the video games, it didn't have life and would only move if wound up. It could also walk up walls and was immensely more powerful than in the games (so much so that the mere sight of a Bob-omb caused mass panic and even made King Koopa duck and cover). Bob-omb's wore Reebok shoes, visible for a split second before it exploded.

Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

Template:Smrpgenemy Bob-ombs also appeared in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, where they first appeared in Moleville Mines. Here, they were mere enemies roaming around Moleville's local mining mountain, although they were featured quite prominently in the battle with Punchinello. In said battle, Punchinello would summon three Bob-omb-type enemies (including the new subspecies Micro Bombs and Mezzo Bombs) for every three defeated, each getting larger and more powerful every "stage" or Punchinello's remaining health. Towards the end of his battle, a seemingly insane Punchinello tried his Bob-omb-summoning act one more time by creating a huge Bomb-omb, although this piece of ammunition only ended up squishing him and allowing Mario and his party to collect the Star Piece he was guarding and save Dyna and Mite Mole. In battle, Bomb-ombs had average stats and no special attacks, however, when threatened, they could explode in a kamikaze attempt to cause one ally a lot of damage. Later in Super Mario RPG, a stronger, purple shoe-clad variety of Bob-omb appeared in Booster Tower.

Yoshi series

Yoshi's Story

Bob-ombs first appearance chronologically was Yoshi's Story. Bob-ombs appear during level 5-4: Shy Guy's Ship where they are fired by Pirate Guy ships' cannons. They also appear during Yoshi's battle with Baby Bowser at the end of the game, where Baby Bowser would attack the hero by throwing Bob-ombs at him from the back of his large green "pet". Yoshi could actually use these Bob-ombs against him, by licking them up and throwing them at the ceiling of the room, causing large stalactites from the ceiling to fall onto Baby Bowser, eventually knocking him off the back of his pet so that Yoshi could battle him hand-to-hand.

In this game, Bob-ombs are treated more like items than actual enemies.

Super Smash Bros. series

Bob-ombs are common items found in the Super Smash Bros. series, being a dangerous and destructive weapon, able to blow up everything on its reach. They can be picked up and thrown at other characters to create an explosion, thus, inflicting great damage on the player, or also knocking them out instantly. However, if they stay on the ground long enough, they will stand and walk around the stage by themselves and eventually stop and remain in their current spot to explode after. During Sudden Death, Bob-ombs will appear and fall on the stage, blowing anyone randomly in case the event takes long time.

Paper Mario series

Paper Mario

Template:Pmenemybox Bob-ombs appear both as allies and enemies in Paper Mario. A few can first be found in Koopa Village. These Bob-ombs explained to Mario and his partners that they had been kidnapped and enslaved by the Koopa Bros.. When Mario reaches the Koopa Bros. Fortress he finds (and is attacked by) several Bob-ombs employed by Bowser. These Bob-ombs have two basic attacks: the first is simply to ram themselves into Mario, and the other is to light themselves, walk up to Mario, and explode right next to him. It appears that Bob-ombs can explode at will and as many times as they want outside of battle.

Mario later falls into a prison full of Bob-omb rebels. Mario manages to free the remainder of the enslaved Bob-ombs, one of which is a pink female Bob-omb named Bombette who joins his party. Some Bob-ombs in this game are shown to be able to explode, and then simply regenerate themselves. Also notable, only Bob-ombs that are allies of Mario can do this.

It is also notable that during the credit roll, four Bob-ombs show out a hand, indicating that Bob-ombs do have arms, only visible when used. Also it shows that Bob-Ombs can be different colors other than the normal black(enemy) and pink(See Bob-omb Buddy). Such colors are the red and green bombs which are both friendly. It also shows that only colored Bob-ombs are nice whereas black ones are all enemies.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Template:Ttydenemy Bob-ombs were rare enemies in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. A group of them called the Bob-omb Squad (led by Master Crash) can first be encountered in Glitzville. Later on Bob-ombs may be fought in the Pit of 100 Trials. Their battle tactics in this game are completely unchanged from their Paper Mario strategies.

Although Bob-ombs, as enemies, are rare in this game, Bob-ombs are commonly found in Rogueport, most of them sailors. A large group of peaceful Bob-ombs live in the Fahr Outpost, where they are the main inhabitants of the region. Most of these Bob-ombs are actually allies of Mario. In fact, again, a Bob-omb becomes one of Mario's partners.

The Bob-omb sub-species Bulky Bob-omb and Bob-ulk is introduced in this game.

Super Paper Mario

This is the only game in the Paper Mario series where Bob-ombs made little to no appearances. However, the only Bob-ombs that were featured in the game at all are Bombette and Bobbery from the previous titles, which appeared as Catch Cards. They also appeared very briefly at the beginning of the game, where they, along with all the others partners, were in a photograph at Mario's house.Also, the pixl boomer may be a reference to bob-ombs

Mario & Luigi series

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

Template:MLinfobox Bob-ombs were semi-common enemies in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. Their attack pattern here was similar to that of the Paper Mario Bob-ombs; however, they also had the power to defuse themselves at will. If a Bob-omb spots Mario or Luigi, it will light its fuse and begin to run around frantically, initiating battle if touched. When defeated, the Bob-ombs in this game sometimes dropped a Red Pepper.

Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time

Template:Pitenemy Bob-ombs next chronological appearance is in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. Here they are found in Gritzy Desert. They would do a simple ram to attack the Mario Bros. but may sometimes trick them by running toward one Bro. then looking the other way and attacking the opposite bro. After they got hit at least 23 damage, they would do a suicidal attack by either trying to ram a hero by exploding or one where it goes to both bros. and they have to be hammered away before it exploded on one of them. A new sub-species of Bob-omb is in this game, called Lethal Bob-omb. Also, a large Shroob version, called Shroob-omb, was used by Commander Shroob in the fight against him.

Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story

Bob-ombs make a reappearance in the game Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. Bowser first discovers Bob-ombs in his castle. They were rounded up in a cage by Fawful and were abandoned. When Bowser frees the Bob-omb, he gains a new attack called Bob-omb Blitz. Bob-ombs also make a second appearance when Mario and Luigi fight Junker. Bob-ombs are one of the enemies that may appear when Junker empties out a Junker Can. Three new species of Bob-ombs were introduced: Fawful Bob-ombs when fighting the Tower of Yikk in Blubble Lake as giant Bowser, Alarm Bob-omb fought in Fawful's castle, and Dark Fawful Bombs as rare enemies that are held by Dark Fawful Guys in Fawful's castle. Bob-ombs also appear out of the rocks that Mawful Moles throws at the player, only if they are smashed with the Hammer.

Mario Baseball series

Mario Super Sluggers

Bob-ombs came for fame in Mario Super Sluggers, and ended up in the ending movie where they were blasted out of a batting cage in Mario Stadium where Mario and Donkey Kong would blast them into the air and they would explode into fireworks. Wario and Waluigi snuck into the stadium and put a Bullet Bill into the machine. It blasted at Mario, who was too surprised and scared to move. Bowser suddenly leaped over and smacked it back at Wario and Waluigi, who were blasted into the air. Bowser walked away slowly. They also appear in the mini-game Bob-omb Derby, where you hit bob-ombs in the air for various points. In the game, a machine will pitch ten ball (bombs) to you,they range in speeds of Mushroom (slow), Flower (medium), Star (pretty fast) and Fireball (super fast). The machine may also pitch a Big Bob-omb. This simply gives you a higher score than most other pitches. If you don't miss a single bob-omb, the machine will pitch more than ten bombs.

Mario Kart series

Bob-omb (or sometimes referred to as Bomb) is a special item used in Mario Kart: Double Dash!. They belonged exclusively to Wario and Waluigi, as well as Petey Piranha and King Boo (the two having access to all special items). If this item is thrown backwards, it explodes after three seconds. When thrown forwards, the Bob-omb waits until another driver runs near it and explodes by then. This item later became the regular item in Mario Kart DS and Mario Kart Wii. Also in Mario Kart Wii. Bob-Omb Cars were much similar to bob-ombs.

Cameos

The Legend of Zelda series

Bob-ombs have even appeared in various Legend of Zelda games, such as The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening and The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap. If Link strikes them with his sword once, they will run frantically around the room in a diagonal pattern, ricocheting off of walls and objects until they explode. If Link manages to strike them again, they will stop moving and explode.

Appearance

File:Bob-ombchange.PNG

Bob-ombs as they appear in various games.

Bob-ombs have always resembled bombs with a few differences. The main difference is that they have white eyes, feet, and (usually unseen) arms. They are traditionally colored black, but they can also be seen in red, blue, or even green. In most games, they feature wind-up keys on their backs and fuses, though these are lacking in a few old games. Curiously, in Paper Mario's ending parade, Bob-ombs are shown to have arms. In some games Bob-ombs are seen to have yellowy-orange feet and legs but in others (super mario sunshine)have feet resembling that of a windup toy.

Allegiance and Culture

Bob-ombs are usually affiliated with the Koopa Troop and it is assumed that they take orders from Big Bob-omb, one of Bowser's high ranking minions. Whether Big Bob-omb is the true king of all Bob-ombs is never explained. In recent years, the games have introduced peaceful Bob-omb communities that have no affiliation with Bowser what-so-ever, and their homeland in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is known as Fahr Outpost, an isolated town located in a far-off icy land. The town is ruled by a Mayor, and all Bob-ombs take orders from him or General White. These Bob-ombs are generally peaceful, but seem to dislike outsiders and prefer to keep to themselves. However, by the end of the game they become more welcoming.

Roles

A Bob-omb walking in Super Princess Peach.

Bob-ombs serve multiple roles in various games. In their most common appearances, they are enemies who explode upon being irritated, although they sometimes chase after Mario upon seeing him, exploding in a few seconds. Bob-ombs can also be used as weapons, particularly in Mario Kart series and Super Smash Bros. series. Bob-ombs are also involved in several Mini-games in the Mario Party series.

The first time a Bob-omb is friendly is in Super Mario 64 (DS), when Pink Bob-ombs help Mario open cannons. They later appear as friendly (though some are also enemies) in the Paper Mario series. Although they are not actually Bob-ombs but Bob-omb Buddies

Bob-ombs also have been used as items in several Mario sports titles. In Mario Kart: Double Dash!! they were Wario and Waluigi's signature item. When thrown, they would stand still for a moment before exploding, throwing any nearby drivers into the air. If the radius is fading, it is a spinout. In Mushroom City and Mushroom BridgeBob-ombs cars could be seen and if a Player accidentally drives into it, it will explode like the Bob-ombs Wario and Waluigi used as Special Items. In Mario Kart DS, Bob-ombs return in a similar fashion as they did on Double Dash!!, but this time it can be used by any character, instead of beng a special one. Curiously, in the remake version of Mushroom Bridge, Bob-ombs cars don't appear. In Mario Smash Football and its sequel, Mario Strikers Charged Football, Bob-ombs are items, and they do almost the same as they did in the Mario Kart series. Here, Bob-ombs can be obtained alone or in a set of three. Also, a larger form of a Bob-omb, called Giant Bob-omb, sometimes appear, acting like a normal Bob-omb, but it explosion radius roughly four times larger, plus it sends out a shockwave, harming anyone near it. In Mario Power Tennis, the Bomb-Omb appear as an item in the minigame Chain-Chomp Challenge and are also part of the audience in Wario Factory Court.

103	Bob-omb	File:Trophy103.PNG	Super Mario Bros. 2 10/88	These little guys are just what they appear to be: walking bombs. Pick one up and hurl it for an incredibly potent attack. If no one picks them up, Bob-ombs light their own fuses and start wandering around armed and dangerous. In Super Mario 64, Bob-ombs chased Mario down once they noticed him. Pink Bob-ombs are nice and capable of speech.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

512	Bob-Omb	File:TrBob-omb.jpg	Super Mario Bros. 2 1988	A mobile bomb with a fuse on its head. It can be picked up and thrown as a powerful explosive, but if no one grabs it, it will tire of waiting and start wandering, then detonate whenever it likes. Its power and unpredictability make it an accident waiting to happen. In sudden-death matches if they go on too long, Bob-ombs rain from the sky to move things along.

Trivia

In Sonic The Hedgehog (1991), an enemy called "Bomb", which is first found in Star Light Zone, has a possible reference to Bob-omb.
