Do Podoboos appear in SM64? I remember some kind of fireball with eyes.Knife (talk)
I do remember something that jumps in and out of lava, not sure if its a Podoboo though. -- Sir Grodus
- It's not officially called a Podoboo. It's more like a flaming arch that rises from the lava (no eyes though). However, the painting to Lethal Laval Land has a picture of a flame with eyes and a mouth (although the actual entity does not appear in the game). -- Son of Suns
The Lethal Lava Land picture kinda looks like Fryguy, it even mentions that on Wikipedia. -- Sir Grodus
Looks just like the Podoboo's Bowser throws out in Super Mario World.
- Yoshi Master
Oh yeah, I remember that! But I'm still leaning towards Fryguy.Knife (talk)
It looks kind of like the fireball enemies from the Rainbow Road dribble Race in Mario Hoops 3 on 3, which in turn resemble the Fire Ball enemies from the Final Fantasy series. Phoenix Rider
From?
- Yoshi Master
The game! Compare a picture of the painting to FryGuy in the link above. It is easier to see in the SM64DS. Max2
Sorry, but I'm not seeing it. The fireball on the painting looks more like an actual fireball, but with Fryguy, you can see a mask - Ultimatetoad 17:45, 27 February 2007 (EST)
I don't think it looks like Fryguy. Fryguy has some kind of blue mask.Knife (talk) 18:44, 27 February 2007 (EST)
Silence all of you.

- Yoshi Master
? What? What game is THAT from? Let's see... SMB2... SM64... ??? Max2
Super Mario World. Final fight with Bowser. Those look more like the painting fireballs than Fryguy.
- Yoshi Master
Looks more like Super Mario World. DISCUSSION: OVER!

We should move some of the articles... they are the same enemy!
The Podoboo entry mentions that some possibly related enemies are Lava Bubbles, Lava Drops, Embers, and Phantom Ember. Thanks to The Mushroom Kingdom, we know that not only are they directly related - they are exactly the same enemy!
