Bomb

Bomb is a Normal / Plant-type monster.

Physiology
Bombs are odd offshoots of the Teslow Project. The Teslow trees cause electrogenic pollution among the forests, and pine trees crossbred with the Teslows. This caused pine cones from the trees to acquire the Teslow genes and gain sentience. Bombs are those living pine cones, who have developed a grenade-type look to them.

Special Abilities
Bombs are able to blow themselves up when under pressure from anger, fear, or another negative emotion. Their pines shoot out in every direction, similar to fragments from grenade. Like Teslows, Bombs have been weaponized, but must be handled with extreme care. Bombs have been known to manage to waddle around.

Behavior
Bombs are easily startled and will self-destruct if scared. Blowing up doesn't kill them instantly, but they aren't able to fight until they regenerated their pines. Bombs are like human babies, so when cared for, they can be very heartwarming.

Habitat
Bombs are scattered among forest floor. Stepping on them can cause them to explode, which has caused many forests to get quarantined.

Origin
Bombs stemmed from the idea to create a monster based on the nickname "Pine Apple" for grenades.

Name Origin
Bombs are explosive weapons, and the monster, Bombs, are based on the specific fragmentation-type.
