'''Boom Boom''' (sometimes stylized as '''Boom-Boom''' or '''BOOM-BOOM'''<ref>''Super Mario Bros. 3'' Nintendo Power Strategy Guide, page 9.</ref>) is one of [[Bowser]]'s henchmen and an antagonist in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise and among [[Mario]]'s most persistent foes. While often described as an individual, he has been shown as an entire species, also called Boom Booms. Boom Boom debuted in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', where he often battles Mario or [[Luigi]] in [[fortress]]es. Boom Boom then later made his return appearance in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' as one of the two secondary antagonists who often appears in [[airship]]s, along with his partner [[Pom Pom]], a female Boom Boom who acts as the other secondary antagonist in the game. After ''Super Mario 3D Land'', Boom Boom reappeared in later games more often. Compared to [[Koopa (species)#Bowser's species|Bowser's species]], he has a complete shell instead of a carapace not directly connected to his plastron, and the shell itself may not have spikes on it, depending on the game. Additionally, he has enormous hands that he swings around as fists as his primary form of attack. | '''Boom Boom''' (sometimes stylized as '''Boom-Boom''' or '''BOOM-BOOM'''<ref>''Super Mario Bros. 3'' Nintendo Power Strategy Guide, page 9.</ref>) is one of [[Bowser]]'s henchmen and an antagonist in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise and among [[Mario]]'s most persistent foes.

Eventually, Princess Peach attempts to escape from Bowser, but Boom Boom and the Koopa Troop chase her down, recapture her, and lock her within a cage. He returns in the [[World 7-Airship (Super Mario 3D Land)|airship of World 7]] and battles Mario for the final time of the main adventure, now joined by Pom Pom. In this battle, Pom Pom stands on an elevated red portion of the arena while Boom Boom fights on the blue floor below, with the former's boomerangs adding an additional hazard while trying to jump on Boom Boom. If Pom Pom is defeated first, the elevated floor will fall to Boom Boom's level, giving him a full arena for the rest of the fight. Both are defeated in the end, however. | Eventually, Princess Peach attempts to escape from Bowser, but Boom Boom and the Koopa Troop chase her down, recapture her, and lock her within a cage.

In {{world-link|S4|airship|Special 4-Airship}}, Boom Boom is fought halfway through the level, in an arena where spikes will emerge from the center and outer area of the room at different intervals, potentially damaging Mario and [[Luigi]] while also giving them less room to avoid his attacks.

Finally, in {{world-link|S8|crown|Special 8-Crown}}, Mario fights both Boom Boom and Pom Pom at the same time, similarly to the boss fight of World 7-Airship, but with Boom Boom being able to make use of his trail-blazing attack from Special 6-Airship (and Pom Pom's battle theme being used instead of his). A Boom Boom that requires only one hit to be defeated can also appear in the Special Worlds' [[Mystery Box]]es. | ||

Boom Boom appears as an enemy in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. Boom Boom appears in all styles, with the ''Super Mario Bros.'' and ''Super Mario World'' styles giving him new sprites. In the ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', ''New Super Mario Bros.

Boom Booms appear in four episodes of ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', where their roles are limited to attacking Mario and Luigi in various locales and producing only roars as sounds. Unlike the games, their teeth are yellow, not white, and they are depicted with similar shells to Bowser's species, due to the carapaces and plastrons being disconnected. The episodes featuring them are [[Misadventures in Babysitting]], [[Do the Koopa]], [[Crimes R Us]], and [[The Venice Menace]]. | Boom Booms appear in four episodes of ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', where their roles are limited to attacking Mario and Luigi in various locales and producing only roars as sounds.

Boom Boom makes his first appearance in the | Boom Boom makes his first appearance in the [[Mario Tennis (series)|''Mario Tennis'' series]] proper in ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]''. He appears as an enemy in Story Mode on [[Inferno Island]], and needs to be defeated in a tennis match in order to progress. The conversations before and after the match against him mark the first time he has had dialogue in a game; he refers to himself in the third person and speaks in broken English. His voice is also significantly higher-pitched. | ||
Boom Boom also appears as a Defense-type playable character, meaning he excels at returning shots. He became available for all players on March 1, 2019, although he could be unlocked earlier by participating in the February 2019 online tournament. Boom Boom has the fastest sideways movement in the game, although he is very slow when moving vertically on the court. His movement and victory animations reference his original sprite animation from ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. In his entrance animation, an [[anchor]] is lowered onto the court while he holds onto it; he then jumps off of it and rises into the air with a spinning attack similar to the one he uses in the 3D ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' games. He also uses this attack in his [[Special Shot]], Spiteful Strike. His horizontal [[Trick Shot]] is named Twist 'n' Boom, while his vertical Trick Shot is named Boom Twirl; Twist 'n' Boom has significantly more range than Boom Twirl does, fitting with his theme of being good at moving horizontally and bad at moving vertically.
