• Bomb X: Kid Icarus Uprising's device, integrated in the fourth Smash, stands out in the fact that it does not cause an actual explosion. On the contrary, depending on how it touches the ground, once bounced it places itself in midair and generates a cross of fire that can be diagonal or not. Those involved are held back, damaged and then thrown as with the radio-guided bomb.
