Their name directly references "cinder," which is a small part of any highly combustible material. They have an ice counterpart called [[Li'l Brr]]s. They slowly chase [[Mario]] (or [[Luigi]]) upon spotting him and attempt to ram into him to inflict damage. If Mario touches a Li'l Cinder, he catches fire and starts running around uncontrollably while losing a wedge of his [[Health Meter#Super Mario Galaxy|life meter]].

==History==
===''Super Mario Galaxy''===
[[File:SMG Melty Molten Starting Planet.png|thumb|left|Lava Bubbles on the {{conjectural|Starting Planet|planet}} in the [[Melty Molten Galaxy]]]]
Lava Bubbles first appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', where they sometimes spawn from [[lava]] pools. Mario can use a [[spin]] attack nearby or shoot a [[Star Bit]] to put out the flame surrounding a Lava Bubble, making it fall on the ground vulnerable and blackened. In this state, the enemy attempts to escape Mario by weakly and unpredictably hopping away and seeks a pool of lava to regenerate its flame. While in its cold state, the Lava Bubble can be kicked or [[jump]]ed on to defeat it, producing a [[coin]]. However, Lava Bubbles produce nothing upon defeat in [[Prankster Comet|Daredevil Comet]] conditions. Lava Bubbles are completely immune to [[Fire Mario]]'s [[fireball]]s, with their bodies simply absorbing the flame. They are the most common enemy in the [[Melty Molten Galaxy]].

Li'l Cinders are much more prolific in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. In some of [[Bowser]]'s stages, they can be summoned by [[Magikoopa]]s. If Mario rolls a [[snowball]] into a Li'l Cinder, he instantly defeats it.
