Upon consumption, Bonk! Atomic Punch renders the player invulnerable for 8 seconds. During this time, the player is forced into third-person mode and may not attack with any weapon, while being limited to actions such as moving, jumping, and reloading their weapons, with a blurry trail following them. While invulnerable, most things that would normally hurt the Scout will instead produce a "Miss!" signal above his head, followed by one of many [[Scout responses#Weapon-related responses|voice responses]]. A Scout cannot use Bonk! while carrying the [[Capture the Flag#Intelligence|Intelligence]], or grab the Intelligence while still under the drink's effects. Scouts under the effects of Bonk! can neither capture nor [[Defense|defend]] objectives such as [[control point (objective)|control points]] or [[Payload#Carts|Payload carts]]. The player has unlimited Bonk! cans at their disposal, but cannot take out another can until the item's cooldown period, shown in the [[HUD]], is over. The effects of Bonk! will cease if a Scout using it activates a [[Respawn#Resupply|Resupply locker]].

While under the effects of Bonk!, the player is immune to almost all forms of damage, including direct damage, residual damage, self-inflicted damage, and fall damage. Damage-over-time effects, such as [[afterburn]] and [[bleed]]ing, will not deal damage for the duration of the Bonk! effect, but will continue when the drink wears off. However, on-hit effects (such as the [[Ubersaw]]'s +25% ÜberCharge on hit) will still take place if they are not based on the amount of damage dealt (such as the [[Buff Banner]]'s rage meter), and Bonk! provides no protection from [[knockback]], environmental damage, or [[telefrag]]s.

“
Bonk! is fulla radiation, which as we all know is pretty great for givin' people superpowers.
— Bonk! Atomic Punch publicity blurb
 ”

Bonk! Atomic Punch is an unlockable secondary weapon for the Scout. It is a canned energy drink with a team-appropriate label; RED's flavor of Bonk! is "Cherry Fission", while BLU's is "Blutonium Berry". On the Festive version, the RED flavor is changed to "Exothermic Eggnog", while the BLU flavor changes to "Mulled Mistletopes".

Upon ingestion, Bonk! Atomic Punch renders the player invulnerable for 8 seconds. During this time, the player is forced into third-person mode and may not attack with any weapon, being limited to actions such as moving, jumping, and reloading their weapons, with a blurry trail following them. While invulnerable, most things that would normally hurt the Scout instead produce a "Miss!" signal above his head, followed by one of many voice responses. A Scout cannot use Bonk! while carrying the Intelligence, or grab the Intelligence while still under the drink's effects. Scouts under the effects of Bonk! can neither capture nor defend objectives such as control points or Payload carts. The player has unlimited Bonk! cans at their disposal, but cannot take out another can until the item's cooldown period, shown in the HUD, is over. The effects of Bonk! cease if a Scout using it activates a Resupply locker.

While under the effects of Bonk!, the player is immune to almost all forms of damage, including direct damage, residual damage, self-inflicted damage, and fall damage. Damage-over-time effects, such as afterburn and bleeding, do not deal damage for the duration of the Bonk! effect, but continue when the drink wears off. However, on-hit effects (such as the Ubersaw's +25% ÜberCharge on hit) still take place if they are not based on the amount of damage dealt (such as the Buff Banner's rage meter), and Bonk! provides no protection from knockback, environmental damage, or telefrags.

After the effect ends, the player receives a 5-second slowdown based on the amount of damage they absorbed while invulnerable. The slow effect scales from 25% at low damage up to 50% after absorbing 200+ damage. The Baby Face's Blaster does not affect the slowdown penalty.

As the process of drinking Bonk! is considered a taunt, it cannot be consumed in instances when taunts cannot be used, such as when underwater. If a Scout who is in the process of drinking Bonk! is propelled into the air by knockback, the drinking animation is cancelled, though this still counts as consumption and drains the recharge meter as such.

While under the influence of Bonk!, the player can still taunt and, by extension, gain kills by using the Grand Slam kill taunt.

Bonk! Atomic Punch is automatically given to any player who obtains 22 Scout achievements.
