Love Bubble

Template:Pitenemy Love Bubbles are spherical creatures with wings and two round feet. They have two "X"s for eyes and a small smile. They are encountered in the Toad Town and Star Hill in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time.

In battle, a Love Bubble employs different attacks. First, a Love Bubble flies high in the air then dive bomb into a Mario brother. Before attacking, however, the Love Bubble lifts one of its feet to indicate which Bro. it will dive bomb. If it lifts up its right foot, the Love Bubble will attack Mario; if left, it will attack Luigi.

Instead of dive bombing, the Love Bubble may attempt to attack both Mario Bros. To do this, it flies in front of the brothers, hovering either low or high. If hovering low, the Love Bubble will attempt to fly into both Mario Bros. Thus, both Mario Bros. must jump one after the other to dodge this attack. However, if the Love Bubble is hovering high in the air, it will fly down into one Bro. then fly back up. If both jump, the second Bro will be hit during the Love Bubble's ascent.

A Love Bubble may turn into a glowing sphere and circle around the Mario Bros. Eventually, the Love Bubble will home in on one Bro. and strike. The player can counter this attack with a Hammer as it circles the Mario Bros.

Love Bubble's other move is healing other enemies. When its ally is attacked, a Love Bubble heals one-fourth of the damage inflicted to it.

A stronger version called the Soul Bubble appears later in Shroob Castle.
