The origin of the X Bomb is muddled. In terms of the bomb's design, it originates from ''{{s|icaruspedia|Kid Icarus: Uprising}}'', where it was an item that Pit could throw at opponents, which then fires four balls of energy in a cross pattern that proceed to bounce around. However, the item's behaviour in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series is to deal instant damage along two lines; this behaviour instead originates from the ''{{s|wikipedia|Meteos}}'' series (which predates ''Uprising'', notably both games were directed by Sakurai), where the X Bomb would destroy all Meteos diagonal to itself upon detonation. Despite this, the Miiverse post that revealed the item specifically says the X Bomb is not from ''Meteos''.
