    Bombshells were among the first 'tech' Pokégirls to be discovered. The majority of them have camouflage-colored skin that feels like a flexible ceramic, and dark green, metallic, almost chitinous shells around their waists, D-cup breasts, forearms, hands, feet, and lower legs. Their spine is visible through their back and looks like a series of metal panels. They have only one ear, and in place of the other one is a small lever with a removable pin in it. Very little can actually hurt them, although Bombshells tend to be nervous around fighting types and tend to make sure that they don't leave their spines facing a fighting-type. They are VERY protective of their spines, as it contains the magnetic aura that allows them to pull themselves back together after blowing up, and don't like to be on their backs at any time as a consequence. The metallic panels of their spines cause stress on their backs, and a Tamer can easily earn the affections of their Bombshell by giving them a back rub, paying special attention to the area exactly around the panels that make up the spine. The breed as a whole has red eyes and blonde hair, leading some to nickname them 'Blonde Bombshells.'
    No one really knew what to make of Bombshells at first. They were a tough breed of Pokégirl, rather attractive for those who liked Steel-types, and very fun-loving. (Although they tended to overdo it to the extreme on explosion-related puns.) The problem was that they tended to blow up a lot. Literally.
    Bombshells are one of two Pokégirls known to be capable of surviving the Self-Destruct and Explosion Pokégirl attacks. Their bodies explode with concussive force, sending shrapnel everywhere. They can then remake their bodies quickly, in under five minutes for a single limb exploded, up to twenty for any larger detonation, using an internal magnetic charge to piece themselves back together. They can even rebuild themselves from almost total destruction, although his takes a lot out of them, regeneration taking forty minutes, leaving them dizzy and weak for a couple days. They can also explode just a part of their body for a pseudo-projectile attack, making them more useful that just regular bombs. They can fully detonate themselves or simply shoot off their hands or feet for a long range attack, or simply explode a limb to destroy bonds that are holding them. (This, consequently, has made Domina-types HATE them with a passion, as they simply keep blowing up any bonds they tie them with.) To explode their entire bodies, they remove the pin that is in place of one of their ears. However, they don't do that as much as one would think a living explosive would do, as it leaves them incredibly dizzy. They are VERY careful to retrieve their pin after rebuilding themselves from an explosion, as they would detonate almost instantly after reforming if they didn't hold the locking handle down constantly.
    Bombshells do not feel pain, so all exploding does is make them aroused, sending a rush of sensation through their bodies. (Fortunately for Tamers, being aroused seems to act as a catalyst against a Bombshell's ability to explode themselves, so there is little worry of a Bombshell blowing up mid-Taming.) They can control the intensity of their detonations to a point, making the damage range from only enough to knock down a normal human, to powerful enough to destroy a heavy vehicle such as a tank from Pre-Sukebe times. Bombshells usually just keep their explosion levels at just enough to knock out an attacking Pokégirl, as the stronger the explosion, the longer their recovery time. It's been confirmed that Bombshells can use an explosion stronger than that, but just suggest that to them and they will become very fearful and panicky, starting withdraw into themselves so much that it makes a Shy Maiden seem like a Wildcat by comparison. However if the subject of pushing the limits of their detonations is avoided, Bombshells remain happy, bubbly Pokégirls that love to be useful in any means they are allowed to be.
    It was eventually discovered that Bombshells could be reformed in a much quicker fashion. Either by chance or a limited form of control over the way they explode, the spine of a Bombshell always remains intact and lands near the Bombshell's Tamer. By running their fingers along the detached spine of a Bombshell creates a magnetic surge that reforms the Bombshell completely within seconds. This, however, is not recommended, as the Bombshell will be incredibly dizzy for however long it would have taken them to normally repair from an explosion of a part of their bodies, a full body explosion causing the longest recovery time. It's best, if this method of reforming a Bombshell is used, to put them in their Pokéball and let them recover, or place them on a bed and wait for them to get their bearings.
    After a couple years of hesitant study, it was discovered that Bombshells could be very useful in land reclamation and demolitions work. They could also test the quality level of soil by eating a handful of it, although mostly Bombshells stay in construction and League law enforcement groups. They are, sadly, frequently found in Team Rocket-style groups, leading some more conservative Leagues to make heavy regulations against ownership of them. They also have hearing problems due to the fact that they have only one ear.
    Feral Bombshells are extremely rare, but they do exist. They tend to be very jumpy and skittish, and will explode at random if startled. In terms of Taming, it's best to have a psychic-type or a plant-type to help the Bombshell relax and make them almost totally incapable of exploding. A Milktit creating milk with a relaxant affect will suffice as well. If a Tamer allows his/her Bombshell to become Feral, they will not only be derided as a moron by their peers, they will also be fined heavily for their irresponsibility.
    No Threshold cases of turning into a Bombshell have been reported. Some assume that this may be because during the early stages of Threshold, the Bombshell might not be able to control her explosion powers and be unable to reform herself. However this is just a theory, and has not been proven as fact.
