Guriguri are enemies in Mario & Wario. They are fireballs very similar to the Lil Sparkies of Super Mario World, traveling along blocks and other objects. If hit by Wanda's wand, Guriguri become smaller and slower as a result. If Guriguri are on breakable obstacles such as Rock Blocks and Wandy cracks or disables their foothold, Guriguri continue to float in a direction until they hit an object, but this can also make them leave the level.
