Bob-omb
A Bob-omb who is bored of standing still takes a stroll.

Bob-ombs are very dangerous items and possibly have one of the greatest amounts of knock back in the entire series. They have been an item since the original Super Smash Bros. and have been a threat ever since. The Bob-omb lands on the stage and rests in place for a little while. In this time it can be picked up and thrown. If no one picks it up for a while, it gets sick of waiting and begins to pace along the stage. They wander until someone steps on them or runs into them, or until they just can't wander anymore and their crank runs out. They stop in place and begin to flash before they self-destruct themselves. In either case, it always turns out the same. An explosion wrecks stages, characters, and nearby items with its abilities.

In Brawl, the time the Bob-omb detonates is increased, meaning it takes longer in its flashing animation from red to black to blow up. However, the amount of time that it remains stationary is decreased, meaning it will walk off earlier than past games.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl if you are in sudden death and no one dies after a while, Bob-ombs continually fall to make the battle end.
