Double Bomb (Wボム daburu bomu "Double Bomb"?) (also known as DoublevBomb in the SNES/PS version) is a dual tech used by Lucca and Robo in Chrono Trigger. This dual tech deals fire damage like most other "explosive" techs. It is learned after Lucca and Robo learn Megaton Bomb and Proximity Bomb respectively.
Description[edit | edit source]
Lucca throws a small bomb at Robo, who then absorbs the energy spins around while adding his own proximity bomb energy to it. Robo then allows for the energy to build up around him, and then releases it in an outwards wave.
Name Origin[edit | edit source]
Since two techs involving "bombs" are used, this name fits.
The W in the Japanese name for this ability imply means "double" - because the letter W and the English word "Double" are prounced the same in Japanese: daburu. The old English localization which used "DoublevBomb" was probably a mistranslated version of this.
