Sparkies appear again in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and [[Super Mario 64 DS|its remake]],<ref>''Super Mario 64 DS'' internal object name (<tt>BUBBLE</tt>)</ref> where they are rare and primarily appear in [[Lethal Lava Land]]. The course is themed after them according to its Japanese name, and its [[painting]] features what is most likely intended to be one, depicted with a sinister face, though they are featureless in gameplay. They jump out of the lava horizontally and bounce on the bridges, then they come back to the lava. They are indestructible, and if Mario touches one, it causes him to uncontrollably run and lose three wedges of health, like all other fiery enemies or obstacles. In the battle with [[Bowser]] in [[Bowser in the Sky]], he spits some blue (green in the remake) fireballs that split into three like-colored Sparkies which immediately bounce across the stage. Both types disappear after a few seconds. In the remake, Yoshi can eat a Sparky, causing him to spit out fire, similar to his ability in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. | |||

Standard orange Lava Bubbles appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' as obstacles in [[Galaxy|galaxies]] with lava, as well as in Bowser's galaxies. Just as in previous installments, Lava Bubbles jump out of the lava trying to hit Mario (or [[Luigi]], as the case may be), though unlike the previous game, they do not have eyes. In [[Bowser's Gravity Gauntlet]], in a place in which there are many lava pits, there are Lava Bubbles that jump from one lava pit into another nearby lava pit. The blue Lava Bubbles from the first ''Super Mario Galaxy'' also appear in this game, solely in the battle against King Kaliente in the [[Boss Blitz Galaxy]]. | Standard orange Lava Bubbles appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' as obstacles in [[Galaxy|galaxies]] with lava, as well as in Bowser's galaxies.

A Lava Bubble's eye color does not change when they are captured by Mario; they instead gain his nose, eyebrows, and mustache. When being controlled by Mario and [[Cappy]], Mario has the ability to travel through lava, including an immunity to other Lava Bubbles. However the Lava Bubble disappears if it lands on other surfaces. The Luncheon Kingdom's [[Stupendous Stew]] counts as lava. Mario can jump by pressing {{button|switch|B}}. and dash by pressing {{button|switch|Leftstick}} and {{button|switch|Y}}. Shaking the controller does a faster twirling dash that involves a short hop. He can pass through grates as well. Touching enemies that are not Lava Bubbles defeats them. If Mario defeats a [[Magmato]], it melts into a puddle of lava. This is used to create additional space on the ground that Lava Bubbles can swim in. The order of operations is such that jumping onto a Magmato as a Lava Bubble is safe. Mario as a Lava Bubble can jump into [[lava cannon]]s, which shoot Mario to another area of the map. Jumping in large pots of Stupendous Stew causes them to heat up, releasing a [[Power Moon]]. Lava Bubbles can ignite [[lantern]]s on contact, though lanterns are not made of lava so the Lava Bubble will disappear. When released from a capture, Lava Bubbles do not get dazed, though they will merely jump up and down instead of resuming any more specific movement pattern. | A Lava Bubble's eye color does not change when they are captured by Mario; they instead gain his nose, eyebrows, and mustache.

Lava Bubbles also appear in an 8-bit sections in the game, reprising their abilities from ''Super Mario Bros.''

The boss [[Cookatiel]] is fought while swimming in a giant pot of Stupendous Stew at the top of [[Mount Volbono]] in the Luncheon Kingdom. Getting there requires using a lava cannon as a Lava Bubble, and the Lava Bubble is used for the entire fight. Mario is not allowed to release the Lava Bubble during this encounter. The Cookatiel rematch in the [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Mario Odyssey)|Mushroom Kingdom]] takes place in the same pot, without the mountain underneath it, under the same rules. Mario also enters this fight in Lava Bubble form. | The boss [[Cookatiel]] is fought while swimming in a giant pot of Stupendous Stew at the top of [[Mount Volbono]] in the Luncheon Kingdom.

In battle, a Lava Bubble attacks by spinning its body into one of Mario's party members. A Lava Bubble can also use the special attack [[Hot Shot]], which allows the flame creature to shoot a small fire orb at a party member. Needless to say, fire is ineffective against Lava Bubbles. However, despite being made of fire, Mario can surprisingly use [[jump]] attacks on Lava Bubbles. Lava Bubbles typically fight in groups of one to three. There are also two Lava Bubble variants, the [[Lava Blubble]] and [[Lava Babble]], which can be found in [[Booster Tower]] and [[Barrel Volcano]], respectively. | In battle, a Lava Bubble attacks by spinning its body into one of Mario's party members.

Sparkies are obstacles in the [[Hot Rope Jump]] minigame of ''[[Mario Party]]''. The object for contestants is to jump over the flaming rope twenty times. If one fails to do so, they will lose fifteen [[coin]]s—five of those coins will be given to each opposing player. If all players complete the minigame successfully, everyone will receive ten coins. If multiple players don't jump during the fire, 1 player loses at random. | |||
