I'm not sure about the original, but in the remake, the things in the sidescrolling segments are clearly [[Hothead]]s, not the small ones, which I can mostly tell by their size in comparison to the Bros., as well as their eye size.

Rename[edit]
The enemy is called "Li'l Sparky" in Nintendo Power and a Paper Mario line, but it's "Lil Sparky" in the Super Mario World cast roll and Super Mario Advance 4 Prima guide, and "Lil' Sparky" in the Super Princess Peach glossary. According to policy, the article title would normally be the latest one; however, given the apostrophe placement has been inconsistent, could we simply use "Lil Sparky" until further notice?

- I really don't think it makes any sort of difference. Somethingone (talk) 10:27, May 5, 2021 (EDT)
- Should probably go with Lil' Sparky based on policy. I don't think we need to "compromise" between different names. --

- Do want to point out that the English Mario Portal goes with "Lil Sparky", and for the most part, the names/spellings are unified/recent. LinkTheLefty (talk) 21:29, August 13, 2022 (EDT)
