Sparky
Template:Articleabout Template:Smrpgenemy
A Sparky is a Podoboo in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. They live in the Pipe Vault, harassing Mario and others by blocking their path through the sewer system. In battle, they hover in the air.
In battle, a Sparky attacks by spinning its body into one of Mario's party members. A Sparky can also use the special attack Drain, which allows the flame creature to shoot a small fire orb at a party member. Needless to say, Fire magic is ineffective against Sparkys. However, despite being made of fire, Mario can surprisingly use jump attacks on Sparkys. Sparkys typically fight in groups of one to three.
Although most Sparkys live in the Pipe Vault, they were first seen in Bowser's Keep during Mario's initial rescue attempt. However, these Sparkys did not attack; they merely jumped out of the lava as Mario walked by.
