The '''[[Bomb]]''' ({{tt|'''ボム'''|Bomu}} ''Bomb'') is an item only usable by [[Lloyd]], and does about 60-80 [[Status#HP|HP]] of [[PK Fire]] damage to all enemies. It can be purchased for $280 in the department store of [[Reindeer]], and is occasionally dropped by a [[Bomber]]. Four bombs can also be found in [[Present|presents]] throughout [[Duncan's Factory]], and one can be found in the maze-like caves of [[Mt. Itoi]].

The '''[[Bottle Rocket]]''' ({{tt|'''ペンシルロケット'''|Penshiru Roketto}} ''Pencil Rocket''), alternatively '''BottlRocket''', is an item only usable by [[Lloyd]], which deals about 20 HP of [[PK Fire]] damage to all enemies. One can be found in a waste container in the northwestern part of [[Sweet's Little Factory]] and two can be found in the southeastern part of [[Duncan's Factory]]. The Bottle Rocket in Sweet's Little Factory must be obtained in order to make [[Lloyd]] join [[Ninten]]'s party.
