With a Bombchu Supply, the user holds an effectively-endless supply of small and mechanical devices called Bombchu, through some means of storage, such as a small pouch. A Bombchu appears somewhat similarly to a stylized gold-and-blue rodent, comparable in size to a dinner plate. When set properly on the ground, a Bombchu will race forward at a speed of roughly 40 mph (65 km/h) along the surface upon which it is set. It will cling to the ground, climb over walls, and even adhere to ceilings until crashing into a solid object, at which point it will explode with force equivalent to a standard Bomb.

Strangely, this supply only functions when an individual Bombchu is produced. The user cannot simply dump out the would-be contents of the supply, and cannot pull out another Bombchu until either the last Bombchu has detonated or five seconds have passed.

A sufficiently skilled Botanist is able to craft a Bomb Bag using 2 Bomb Seeds, 2 Compact Seeds, 4 Pegasus Seeds, and 1 Dodongo Hide. A Botanist can also craft various Potions which enhance bombchu, mostly using Bomb Seeds.

Trivia

  • A Bombchu Supply is one of several treasures that can serve as the prerequisite for the Bomb Arrow, Remote Bomb, Landmine, and Powder Charge techniques.
  • Bombchu canonically appear in the Zelda series, initially in Ocarina of Time. More information about the canonical version of this treasure can likely be found on Zelda Wiki.
