    What bombs in Pokémon? Geodude and a few others have Self Destruct, but I do not recall bombs.

      OoT also has the bomb flowers. You have to blow up the large boulder blocking Dodongo's cavern by throwing a bomb flower from the cliff and then in the cavern you get the bomb bag to start carrying bombs.

      I'm also pretty sure that somewhere in OoT someone says that bomb flowers are the raw material for bombs

        They're talking about voltorb, which are obviously made from pokeballs.

          I always assumed Voltorb evolved to look like a PokeBall as a camouflage technique.

          Which implies that PokeBalls have existed for millions of years....

          Your explanation makes more sense than mine.

            I don't remember any game where bombs are an enemy

            Bombchus!

            Is that an enemy? As I recall* they're an item that only the player can use, they never appear out in the wild and you don't have to fight against them (unless they ricochet back at you). Also, this is just my interpretation, but they seem mechanical to me, not alive.

            * which is clearly not as reliable a source as it could be

              Just to expand on this: in the Zelda series it differs from game to game. In some games they are bomb flowers (e.g. Tears of the Kingdom, also Wind Waker if I remember correctly), in other games they appear to be man-made and are bought in shops (e.g. Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess, I think?) and are presumably conventional bombs with gunpowder as you mentioned. I don't remember any game where bombs are an enemy like you said, but I'll take your word for it. I haven't played every game.

              Ocarina of time also has bomb flowers. Majora's Mask has these guys called Real Bombchus as for the bombs for enemies

                  I thought you meant the games.

                  I only see smokebombs on the list of equipment used, and those look to only appear in one episode. https://pokemon.fandom.com/wiki/Team_Rocket's_equipment

                    Evolution in Pokémon does not take millions of years. If you leave a Pokémon in your pocket with the wrong rock it is going to evolve, or if it becomes your friend it may evolve.

                      On that page, click "Real Bombchu" under Majora's Mask. That's the enemy being discussed. The blue and yellow one is an item. Real Bombchu appear around the canyon entrance in Termina Field during the day.
