A Robomb[1] is an enemy found in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon and Luigi's Mansion Arcade. First encountered in the Old Clockworks, Robombs activate when Luigi uses the Strobulb on them. Upon activation, while making alarm noises that gradually speed up, they pursue Luigi and then explode, causing 20 HP of damage to Luigi if he is hit. The explosion can also stun any ghosts caught in it. Some Robombs malfunction; this is indicated by a different startup sound, red electric sparks around them, and the way they behave. Malfunctioning Robombs first run into place, then charge into Luigi. Greenies use these objects to hide from the Strobulb flashes. Luigi can also find an occasional Gold Robomb.
