| |
| Party Balls in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] first appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and return in every following game, ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. When thrown or attacked, they rise up and release items after a few seconds. Like the [[crate]], the Party Ball is a heavy item. Only very strong fighters, such as [[Donkey Kong]] or [[Bowser]], can walk with relative ease while carrying a Party Ball.
| |
| | |
| Party Balls have a 42% chance of releasing a random number of assorted items, a 36% chance of revealing exclusively [[List of Super Smash Bros. series items#Food|food]] items, and a 12% chance of dropping several [[Bob-omb]]s onto the battlefield (known as a "Bob-omb Fest"); the other 10% of the time, the Party Ball self-destructs. In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', the Party Ball also has a chance of not releasing any items.
| |
| | |
| In their [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] descriptions throughout the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, Party Balls are shown to represent the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, not the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]].

| |
| Party Balls make their first ''Super Mario'' appearance in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', where they are semi-common objects. Party Balls here are depicted as floating, yellow-spotted blue ball with a ribbon and wings. When [[Princess Peach|Peach]] finds one of these objects, she can open the Party Ball by using [[Perry]], or by throwing an object or enemy at it. Once opened, they release [[coin]]s (and occasionally, [[heart (item)|heart]]s and [[crystal (Super Princess Peach)|crystal]]s) to collect.
| |
| | |
| In an [[list of Super Princess Peach pre-release and unused content|early version]] of ''Super Princess Peach'', Party Balls had a slightly different design. They were originally less rounded at the bottom, and lacked wings.
| |
| | |
| ===''Yoshi's Crafted World''===
| |
| Party Balls return in ''[[Yoshi's Crafted World]]''. Their design is based on a [[Piranha Plant]]. They appear in the level [[Jumping to Victory]]. Party Balls hang from the top of the screen, and can be used as platforms by [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]. They come in two colors: red and blue. Red Party Balls contain objects such as [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]]s or [[coin]]s. Blue ones contain nothing and are mainly used as platforms. Party Balls sometimes move up and down. [[Spike the Piranha]] starts out as a red Party Ball.

The fluttering confetti adds to the celebratory atmosphere. Some Party balls are filled with nothing but bombs, though, so handle with care. Perhaps if you just pulled the string... Naw, that doesn't work.
