'''Bomber''' is a semi-rare [[enemy]] that appears throughout the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]], making his first appearance in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''. His appearance looks similar to a small, purple or black bombshell with a red tip, a pair of legs and a skull icon on him to indicate the danger he poses to Kirby. In almost every one of its appearances, he walks slowly toward and edge when spotted, then proceeds to teeter on it, then drop off. If he hits the ground without being interrupted, he will explode, which can hurt Kirby from a very large distance. As such, it is imperative to deal with a Bomber whenever one is on screen. Bomber will always yield the [[Crash]] [[Copy Ability|ability]] when swallowed.

[[File:KSS Bomber.png]] [[File:KSSU Bomber Sprite.png]] Bomber is fairly rare in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and [[Kirby Super Star Ultra|its remake]], but still behaves the same as before. Unlike most Copy Ability-providing enemies, he cannot be summoned as a [[Helper]].

In both games, Bomber has 16 [[Health|HP]] with 2× weakness to fire element attacks, and if he takes less than 16 [[damage]], he will explode instead of getting safely defeated.

Bomber appears in this title, serving a more specific purpose than usual. It often appears from [[Yin-Yarn]]'s magic enemy doors and will walk slowly towards a ledge, then teeter and fall, blowing up and harming Kirby and Fluff if they are in proximity. Kirby and Fluff can use the [[Yarn Whip]] to capture Bomber and transform him into a yarn bomb, which they can then throw in an arc at targets. The bomb goes off after a few seconds, and can destroy cloth blocks.

The bomb goes off after a few seconds, and can destroy cloth blocks. If whipped but not captured, Bomber will not immediately disappear, instead taking a couple seconds before detonating.


In ''Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn'', Bomber also makes an appearance in [[Slash & Bead - Stage 2|Stage 2]] of the [[Sub-Game]] [[Slash & Bead]].

Bomber appears as an item in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. It walks slowly until interacted with or it reaches a ledge, off of which it will fall. If picked up, Bomber will be triggered to explode in 1.5 seconds, which won't damage the fighter activating it, but will deal huge damage to nearby opponents. Fighters will take less damage by moving away from the center of the explosion.
