Cherry Bob-Omb

:Not to be confused with Jerry, a Bob-omb who resembles a cherry.
Cherry Bob-Ombs (Japanese: チェリーボム Cherry Bomb) are a subspecies of Bob-Ombs and, possibly, a predecessor species to Bob-omb Buddies. They are known for only two things: Their red color (though, worth noting, that does make them confusing with B.O.B.'s) and their lack of harming players. They mostly act as a normal Bob-Omb does, but do have a few differences: they don't walk towards the player and must be picked up manually, and they don't harm the player. Cherry Bob-Ombs also don't make a ticking sound or signal when they are going to explode, other making a somewhat happy or excited expression, but they do make a sound reminiscent to that of a balloon popping when they detonate. When they explode, they can't hurt players but can hurt enemies and break blocks, which is useful in multiplayer games.
== Appearances ==
=== Super Mario 3Deluxe! ===
Cherry Bob-Ombs make their true debut as enemies in Super Mario 3Deluxe! They can't (or possibly, don't, as they simply stand in place) move by their own will, yet appear to be sentient as they make a happy expression as they explode. In addition to appearing as enemies, they also appear in the minigame Cherry Bomb Sunday!
