Appearances 
Edit
Final Fantasy IV Edit
Mom Bomb is fought as the boss of Mt. Hobs. It begins as a normal battle against a Bomb until it loses 1,500 HP, in which case it will transform and will do nothing but countdown to Explode, in which case it will deal heavy damage to the party and split Mom Bomb into three Grey Bombs and three Bombs.
Final Fantasy IV: The After Years Edit
Mom Bomb returns as the boss of Mt. Hobs, being identical to its previous incarnation.
Final Fantasy XII Edit
While known as Mother Grenade in the Japanese version, it is known as Mom Bomb in the English releases.
Final Fantasy XIV Edit
Called the Progenitrix, a mombomb appears as the last boss of Pharos Sirius (Hard). Similar to Final Fantasy IV, she splits into three Lava Bombs and three Grey Bombs upon defeat. However, when they are defeated, a blue palette swap called the Progenitor will appear and must be fought in the second half of the battle.
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates Edit
Mother Bomb is an enemy fought at Kilanda Islands, being the upgrade to the Ice Bomb. It is identical to the Ice Bomb, but hits harder and is harder to pick up. In addition, when it uses Self-Destruct, it can inflict Freeze onto anyone caught in the blast, leaving them vulnerable to other enemies that may be around.
Final Fantasy Dimensions II Edit
Mom Bomb is not an enemy, but a summon for the first time in this installment.

- Strategy
The Mom Bomb has a short fuse and most likely will not allow the player enough time to get a perfect score the first time around on account of comparatively low levels for the party, but with the right setup, he or she can make a sizable dent in the creature's HP before it blows and divides into bomblets. Black Mages should focus on Ice and Dark spells before it grows, and then the player should brace the entire party for Self-Destruct. The bomblets are weak against Ice attacks and will self-destruct themselves if not downed within a turn or two. Speed is the order of the day and the key to mastery.
