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 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.
