Target Scores

Exploit weakness to Ice attacks
Exploit weakness to Dark attacks
Defeat without being KO'd

Attacks

Attack
Fire
Grow/"IT'S GONNA EXPLODE!!": Ready pose
Self-Destruct: Heavy damage to all targets, then splits into Bomb x3, Gray Bomb x3

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.
