Bomb made its first appearance in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'', and subsequent appearances were patchy and varied until ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land'', where it would become standardized and attain mainstay ability status. Though many enemies and objects provide the Bomb ability when [[inhale]]d, its primary enemy representative is [[Poppy Bros. Jr.]], who acts as the [[Helper]] representing the ability in both ''Kirby Super Star'' and ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]''.

[[File:KSA Bomb demonstration.png|thumb|left|150px|Using the Bomb ability allows Kirby to duel at range with another bomb-throwing opponent.]]
Bomb is among the more versatile, unique, and difficult-to-master abilities in Kirby's arsenal due to revolving almost entirely around the deployment of explosives which are affected by gravity and other forces within the world. Unlike other abilities, which tend to involve many different powers and attacks, all of Bomb Kirby's moves start with pulling out a bomb as a distinct object. The rest comes down to how Kirby subsequently uses the bomb, whether it be a simple toss, rolling it along the ground, dropping it at his feet, or planting it right on an enemy's head. The bombs themselves have a timer, and will detonate by on their own after this timer expires, including in Kirby's hands if he does not get rid of it fast enough. Bombs can deal substantial damage to enemies at a distance, and effective use of this ability will prevent most foes from getting anywhere near the pink puffball.

Despite its explosive nature, the Bomb ability does not normally have any elemental property associated with it (though prior to ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land'', it could be used to light [[fuse]]s and melt [[Ice Block]]s, much like [[Fire]]). However, in certain games, it is readily miscible with other abilities and powers, giving it a much larger range of versatility. This is particularly exemplified in ''[[Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards]]'' and ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'', where combinations and [[Power Effect]]s can create quite surprising results such as the detonating throwing stars of [[Bomb-Cutter]] or the floating Bluster Bombs.

Bomb also appears in ''[[Kirby: Squeak Squad]]'', where it is practically identical to how it was in ''Kirby & The Amazing Mirror''. However, if Kirby collects the [[Ability Scroll]] for Bomb, he can combine the ability with [[Ice]] or [[Spark]] to create Ice Bomb and Thunder Bomb respectively. Doing so allows him to toss bombe infused with those elements: ice bombs can freeze enemies and water, while thunder bombs electrify foes and send sparks along metal surfaces. Unlike with [[Sword]], there is no [[Fire]] Bomb combination, since Bomb already has fiery properties by default.

In ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'' and its remake, ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe]]'', the Bomb ability reappears with a similar move-set to its appearance in ''Kirby Super Star'', but notable aesthetic differences: instead of wearing a floppy blue cap, Kirby wears a fireworks cone-styled hat. In addition, the bombs now include star patterns on them, and feature a notable difference in functionality: in all previous games, the bombs had a flame effect, meaning they were capable of lighting [[fuse]]s and breaking ice blocks. They are no longer capable of doing so on their own in modern titles starting with this game.

''Kirby's Return to Dream Land'' introduced some notable aspects of the Bomb ability, including the moves "Bomb Bowl" and "Self-Destruct". In this game, the primary provider is once again Poppy Bros. Jr., though other enemies provide this ability as well, like Foley, [[Bomb Machine]]'s missiles, [[Mr. Dooter]]'s bombs, and [[Metal General]] and [[HR-D3]]'s missiles. Bomb also gets its own [[Challenge Stage]]: the [[Bomb Challenge]].

Bomb returns as an ability in ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'', with the same move-set as it had in ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land''. However, it takes noticeably longer to deploy bombs in this game than it did in its previous appearance. This was likely done to balance the ability for the [[Kirby Fighters]] [[Sub-Game]], which Bomb also appears in.

Bomb appears as one of the selectable Copy Abilities in ''[[Kirby Fighters Deluxe]]'', carrying over its look and functionality from the original Kirby Fighters. Its unlockable [[Kirby Fighters Deluxe#Rare Outfits|Rare Outfit]] has a similar design to the default hat, with an orange-and-purple diamond motif, a heart-shaped gem in its center, and a flashy pom pom on top; the bombs themselves are also adorned with hearts. According to a Miiverse post quoting designer Kenichiro Kita, this variant was designed to appeal to girls, as he thought the standard Bomb design appealed mainly to boys.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20171108043211/https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAADRUqGZlHo6Fw Miiverse post by Satoshi Ishida on 10/02/2014, 12:31 PM on Archiverse]</ref>

Bomb returns in ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'' along with [[Poppy Bros. Jr.]] who is the [[Helper|Friend]] for that ability. In addition to the standard repertoire of attacks from other recent titles, Bomb can be infused with any of the five [[Power Effect]]s to create five elemental variants. Unlike in ''Kirby: Squeak Squad'', a fiery bomb combination is possible here. Notably, if the Power Effect on Bomb changes, any bombs that were already on the field will turn into the new elemental variant.

Of the possible combinations, the most notable one is Bluster Bomb, which gives Kirby or Poppy Bros. Jr. the ability to toss bombs that fall gently downward, extending their reach or letting them linger in the air as hazards for enemies. In addition, when holding a Bluster Bomb, the holder will float upward if they are in the air, including allies who just picked up bombs that Kirby or Poppy Bros. Jr. tossed.

Bomb appears as one of the selectable abilities in ''[[Kirby Fighters 2]]'', retaining its properties from ''Kirby Fighters Deluxe''. Along with [[Sword]] and [[Staff]], it is available for use right from the start. Its move-set is nearly identical to that of previous titles, but damage values have been adjusted. Notably, Kirby can now harm himself with his Self-Destruct technique. In this game, Bomb has two unlockable [[Costumes|Rare Hats]]: the first one is the Heart Bomb hat from ''Kirby Fighters Deluxe'', while the second is a new one, the Pirate's Tricorn, which lets Kirby toss bombs with skull and crossbones on them.
