Lava Babbles (originally named Pyrospheres) are variants of Lava Bubbles found in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars and its remake. They are located in Barrel Volcano, as well as Bowser's Keep. Lava Babbles usually appear with stronger creatures in battle, such as Chained Kongs or Stompillars. While they appear redder than regular Lava Bubbles in the remake, they share the same palette in the original game.
When Mario and his allies reach the volcano's main chamber, a large group of Lava Babbles are flying around. Spotting the group, the swarm quickly condenses, forming the Czar Dragon.
