'''Bub''' is a spoiled, orange [[Bob-omb]] kid in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''.

'''Bub''' is a spoiled, bronze [[Bob-omb]] kid in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He is always with his dad [[Goldbob]] and his mother [[Sylvia (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Sylvia]]. [[Mario]] first sees him and his parents in [[Glitzville]], then the [[Excess Express]], and lastly at their home in [[Poshley Heights]].  


Bub wishes to work on a train when he grows up, possibly as an engineer. His fascination with trains is made obvious when he states that he would rather have an [[autograph]] of the [[Excess Express engineer]] for a birthday present rather than getting a car, a house, or an encyclopedia set (all three being things his parents thought he wanted). When Mario gets the autograph from the engineer and hands it over to Bub, the Bob-omb kid thanks Mario and rewards him with a [[Shine Sprite#Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|Shine Sprite]].

On the third day, Bub and his parents are among the passengers who are absorbed into a hoard of [[Smorg]]s that attacks the train. After Mario defeats the Smorgs, they blow away in the wind, freeing the passengers. With that, the rich family of Bob-ombs safely return to Poshley Heights.

They are eventually freed when Mario defeats the Smorgs, causing them to blow away in the wind. With that, the rich family of Bob-ombs safely return to Poshley Heights.


When [[Bowser]] and [[Kammy Koopa]] visit Poshley Heights during an intermission after Chapter 7, Bowser can optionally talk to Bub, who asks him for his name: Evil King Extraordinaire, Businessman of Legend, or [[Koopa Koot]]. If Bowser chooses "Evil King Extraordinaire", Bub will then become terrified and flee.

In Bub's [[Help me make up.|trouble]] (posted at the [[Trouble Center]] in [[Rogueport]]), he gets into a fight with Sylvia and needs Mario's help to make up. He has written her a letter and wants any item listed within the trouble: [[Shroom Cake]], [[Keel Mango]], or [[Fright Mask]]; if Mario chooses [[Shroom Cake]], he will need [[Zess T.]] to mix a [[Mushroom#Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|Mushroom]] with a [[Cake Mix]] (bought from [[Pianta Parlor]]) to make one. After delivering the item to Bub, he makes a [[Present (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|present]] out of the item and his letter, and asks Mario to deliver the present to Sylvia, which Mario does so. The letter reveals that the fight occurred because Bub did not do his homework. For solving the trouble, Bub rewards the player with three [[Coin]]s, which he says are his "entire fortune", showing that Bub himself does not possess much money, despite Bub's overly generous parents and posh upbringing.

==Field Tattles==
Bub is one of few friendly Bob-ombs with a visible fuse, while most friendly Bob-ombs wear hats or lack one entirely such as [[Lucky]].
*"''That's Bub the Bob-omb. He's from a very rich family, so he's kind of spoiled. Still, kids are kids, no matter how big their trust fund is... Aren't they?''" - Default tattle.
 
*"''That's Bub the Bob-omb. He's from a very rich family, so he's kind of spoiled. He put in a request to help him make up with a certain someone.''" - After taking on Bub's trouble, but before solving it.
