'''Bob-omb'''  ({{ja|ボム兵|Bomuhei}}, ''Bomb Trooper'') is an [[item]] that has appeared in every game of the {{uv|Super Smash Bros.}} series, originating from the {{uv|Mario}} series. It acts as a powerful, explosive throwing item in all of its appearances.
'''Bob-ombs'''  ({{ja|ボム兵|Bomuhei}}, ''Bomb Trooper'') are [[enemies]] from the {{uv|Mario}} series, debuting as an [[item]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros]]''.

Introduced in ''{{s|mariowiki|Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic}}'' (which would later be released internationally as ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''), Bob-ombs are bomb-like enemies that walk around, exploding after a short time. Jumping on a Bob-omb (except in ''Super Mario Bros. 2'') stuns it; in this state, it can be picked up and thrown, defeating enemies and destroying blocks with its explosion, which can also damage the player. If it is not thrown quickly enough, the Bob-omb explodes on its own, also damaging its holder.
Bob-ombs made their debut in the Japan-only game ''{{s|mariowiki|Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic}}'' (repurposed as ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' for international markets) as a common enemy, and have become a common enemy in later ''Mario'' games. They are bomb-like enemies with simple eyes that feature two little legs and a wind-up key on the back.
 
Bob-ombs simply walk around aimlessly and explode after a short time. Jumping on one (except in ''Super Mario Bros. 2'') causes it to become immobile, but it will also cause it to explode after a short time. In later ''Mario'' games, jumping on one can cause it to remain stationary without exploding. If they are left alone for too long, however, they will become mobile again. In either case, an immobile Bob-ombs can be picked up and thrown, defeating enemies and destroying blocks with its explosion, which can also damage the player. If it is not thrown quickly enough, the Bob-omb explodes on its own, also damaging its holder.


In ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario 64}}'', Bob-ombs react to [[Mario]] if he comes close enough to them by igniting themselves and chasing after him. They can also be grabbed, and when thrown they explode immediately upon coming into contact with anything.

The Bob-omb appears in ''Ultimate'' as an Advanced-class [[support spirit]].
The Bob-omb uses a {{SSBU|Kirby}} puppet fighter and is fought on the {{SSB|Mushroom Kingdom}} stage. During the battle, the Bob-omb appears as the item while Kirby's throwing-type items have increased power. Also, Kirby has increased move speed, referencing how the Bob-ombs will run at the player in later ''Super Mario'' games.
