The '''Gooey Bomb''' (Japanese: チューインボム, ''Chūin Bomu'') is a new item for ''[[SSBB]]''. It takes on the appearance of a glowing orange sphere in a blob of goo. When thrown, it can stick to anything, even characters. Eventually it starts flashing, then explodes, damaging anyone who gets hit. However, if it sticks to a character, they can pass it to others by running past them, making it sort of like a hot potato game. The blast can still be avoided by [[dodging]] with good timing, however some CPU opponents will repeatedly activate their shield when hit with a Gooey Bomb in an attempt to [[Perfect shield]] the explosion.

The Gooey Bomb is a glowing red ball encased in a blob of goo. When thrown it can stick to anything, including characters. Eventually it starts flashing, then after six seconds it explodes, damaging anyone who gets hit with 22%. Gooey Bombs are extremely powerful, KO'ing most characters around 50%.

Kirby, King Dedede and Wario can use their [[Inhale]] and [[Chomp]] moves to eat Gooey Bombs, but this will damage them. Kirby can also defend himself from a stuck Gooey Bomb by using the invincibility of his [[Stone]] move. It is possible to start a chain reaction of explosions when two or more Gooey Bombs are attached to one character.
 
In ''Brawl'', CPU fighters will often enter a random sequence of shielding and dodging if a Gooey Bomb has been attached to them, rather than attempting to move the bomb onto someone else. In ''SSB4'', though, they will try and chase the nearest character.
 
In ''Ultimate'', characters appear to be shocked when it is about to explode while it is stuck to them.

==Trivia==
==Names in other languages==
*The Gooey Bomb might be based on the No 74 ST Grenade, a real life bomb that was known for sticking onto tanks. However, this bomb would also stick to the user of the grenade, forcing the bomb to be replaced by safer types of grenades. [[Image:Pit_gooeybomb.jpg|thumb|150px|A "floating" gooey bomb.]]  Many fans also speculated that the Gooey Bomb may be based on the Plasma Grenade from the Halo series, although this is unlikely.
{{langtable
*Gooey Bombs are not always directly stuck upon the opponent, sometimes they seem to "float" above the user.
|ja={{ja|チューインボム|Chūin Bomu}}
*Kirby has any easy self-defense against any Gooey Bomb stuck to him. Simply activating the Stone will keep Kirby from taking any damage or (granted Kirby doesn't accumulate over 30% damage while in Stone form) knockback. Opponents can sabotage a Stone-shielding Kirby by hitting him with a strong attack, making the explosion of the Gooey Bomb push the damage over 30%, delivering knockback (but no damage). He can also eat the Gooey Bomb thrown at him, although he will take damage. The latter strategy also works with King Dedede or Wario.

The Gooey Bomb (チューインボム, Chewing Bomb) is an item in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Smash Bros. 4, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Overview[edit]

The Gooey Bomb in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
The Gooey Bomb attached to Wii Fit Trainer in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.

The Gooey Bomb is a glowing red ball encased in a blob of goo. When thrown it can stick to anything, including characters. Eventually it starts flashing, then after six seconds it explodes, damaging anyone who gets hit with 22%. Gooey Bombs are extremely powerful, KO'ing most characters around 50%. However, if it sticks to a character, they can pass it to others by running past them, making it sort of like a hot potato game. The blast can still be avoided by dodging with good timing. Kirby, King Dedede and Wario can use their Inhale and Chomp moves to eat Gooey Bombs, but this will damage them. Kirby can also defend himself from a stuck Gooey Bomb by using the invincibility of his Stone move. It is possible to start a chain reaction of explosions when two or more Gooey Bombs are attached to one character.

In Brawl, CPU fighters will often enter a random sequence of shielding and dodging if a Gooey Bomb has been attached to them, rather than attempting to move the bomb onto someone else. In SSB4, though, they will try and chase the nearest character.

In Ultimate, characters appear to be shocked when it is about to explode while it is stuck to them.

Origin[edit]

While the design of the Gooey Bomb is original to the Smash series, functionally similar explosive objects have been used throughout history. Examples include the British developed sticky bomb, as well as adhesives being used to attach C-4 and other explosives to surfaces.
