'''Bomb''' ({{ja|ボム|Bomu}}, ''Bomb'') is [[Samus]]'s [[down special move]] in all five installations of the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series and is also [[Dark Samus]]'s down special move in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.

Bombing while in mid-air causes Samus to go into Morph Ball mode, and slows down her fall. Thus, in the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series, Samus can use the [[bomb recovery]] technique, which consists of repeatedly bomb while holding towards the stage to increase the distance of her recovery, although this takes away her midair jump if she still has not used it. In ''Melee'', bombing twice consecutively in the air will cause Samus to pop upward from the first bomb, giving her near-infinite horizontal recovery. This is reputedly possible in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', but is less efficient.

# '''Slip Bomb''': Bombs cause opponents to trip but deal very little damage. Samus also falls slightly slower when used in the air and re-emerges closer to the bomb on the ground. Meteor smashes airborne opponents.

# '''Mega Bomb''': Explodes in a much larger blast after several seconds, limited to one on the stage at a time. Samus also falls slightly faster when used in the air. Very little utility.

 

''While Samus's arsenal of missile weapons is indeed formidable, her enemies are in for a rude awakening if they guard against nothing else. Her Grappling Beam captures foes and latches on to walls, and the Screw Attack drags foes upwards in a series of spins that doubles as a recovery move. Samus can also use her Bombs to perform Bomb Jumps.''

''One of the numerous modules integrated into Samus's Power Suit. This one allows her to transform into a compact mobile sphere and explore tight spaces. In the very first Metroid game, it was known as Maru Mari, which is just Japanese for "roll up," but it was later changed to the much-cooler-sounding Morph Ball.''
