''' | '''Boomer''' is the third of many different [[Pixl]]s that [[Mario]], [[Princess Peach|Peach]], [[Bowser]], and [[Luigi]] discover in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', and one of the twelve original Pixls created by the [[Tribe of Ancients|Ancients]]. His special ability is to turn into a bomb that explodes, as alluded to by his name. His explosive ability fulfills the same role as [[Bombette]] from ''[[Paper Mario]]'', and [[Admiral Bobbery]] from ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. | ||
Boomer can be used to open up areas that were once closed off by barriers, and his explosions can defeat enemies at a distance. The player must press {{button|wii|1}} on the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] to set and then detonate the bomb. Eventually, Boomer will also blow up on his own, or he can be detonated immediately by being hit with Bowser's [[Fire Breath]]. It is possible to throw Boomer a short distance by setting him, then quickly switching to [[Thoreau]] and picking him up. The only way the player can defeat [[Shlurp]]s, [[Shlorp]]s, and [[Dark Shlurp]]s is to get them to swallow Boomer once, twice, or thrice respectively. Also, in Chapter 3-4, Peach uses Boomer to blow up [[Francis]]' laptop after Francis uses [[Swoon.exe]] to try to flirt with her. | |||
