Babooms[1] are enemies that appear in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. They are new type of Bob-omb developed by Bowser's Minions[1] that resemble firecrackers and release a series of three fireworks when stomped on or hit with a fireball, which can be used to break blocks and defeat enemies above them without being able to hurt the player. They first appear in the Fluff-Puff Peaks Flying Battleship, where their ability to destroy blocks is used to progress through the level and access the Wonder Flower, as well as in KO Arena Magma Flare-Up, where they are used to defeat Piranha Plants and Fire Piranha Plants. Their English name comes from the onomatopoeic sound of an explosion, while also being a pun on "Bob-omb."[1]
