Time Bomb

The Time Bomb was a weapon and gadget that Clank used. Time bombs created a large sphere of blue quantum energy, which slowed down anything inside the sphere. It was very similar to the time-slowing abilities the Zoni granted Clank in Tools of Destruction.

Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time
In A Crack in Time the Time Bomb was a weapon. It was mainly used to slow down obstacles and attacking enemies. Time bombs were thrown from the top of Clank's Chronoscepter.

Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One
In All 4 One, the Time Bomb was Clank's special gadget. They could be used to slow fast-moving enemies or lengthen the time the team can take to revive a fallen teammate.

Trivia

 * Only one time bomb could be active at a time due to the amount of quantum energy they released.
 * In A Crack in Time it could be added to the Quick select but if Ratchet took out his wrench and then pressed R1 or he would switch to the previously used weapon.
 * The spheres of quantum energy created by a time bomb appear to be scaled-up Nanohealth Orbs.
 * Accoding to its weapon preview video, several of these were discovered and studied by Pollyx Industries Sages, but they were all used up to stop the Sage's mother in laws from coming home for the holidays. This setback was cataclysmic to the Time Bomb research and they had since terminated the project.
 * Insomniac Games originally intended time bombs to be used to get past certain puzzles in the Nefarious Space Station, but they were frustrating to game testers, so the puzzles were cut out.
