Cherrybomb

The Cherrybomb (also known as the Firebush or Gunpowder Plant, and referred to in-code as the Firecracker Plant) is a plant featuring several small red berries along a central black stem. It serves as a weak, non-lethal explosive.

Utility
When thrown, the berries activate and produce a series of small but loud explosions after a brief delay. The number of explosions a Cherrybomb does is randomly picked. Each explosion deals no direct damage but will deafen all creatures in its radius, stun most smaller creatures in the radius, including, and temporarily scare and disorient larger creatures such as. Additionally, the explosions generated by them can ignite other explosives, and vice versa.

Furthermore, their explosions are capable of launching Slugcat, giving them a niche usage for movement purposes. However, they are somewhat unreliable as the launch is inconsistent and the Cherrybomb cannot be reused.

In the Downpour DLC, Cherrybombs can also be crafted by at the cost of one food pip by swallowing.

Trading
Cherrybombs may be used in trade with s, though their value is quite low and they are better used elsewhere.

Trivia
