Sparks are orb-shaped creatures that emit pulses and flashes of electricity continually. They are mostly found crawling around walls and ceilings and moving across wires. Sparks are the first in a series of enemies in theSuper Mario franchise that are balls of electricity, includingLi'l Sparkies andAmps.

History[edit]

Donkey Kong series[edit]

Donkey Kong Jr.[edit]

Sprite of a Spark from Donkey Kong Jr.

Sparks first appear inMario's Hideout ofDonkey Kong Jr. where two variants appear. The red Sparks (also known asGlobes[1]:7) continue to circle their own platform, but blue ones can travel to other platforms through static particles. These Sparks are generated byMario in order to shockDonkey Kong Jr., preventing him from savinghis father. Blue Sparks do not appear in the Coleco Adam port, which alters the stage layout and replaces them with hazardous green waterdrops instead.

Donkey Kong (Game Boy)[edit]

Spark

In theGame Boy version ofDonkey Kong, only one Spark[2] appears inStage 6-4, rotating clockwise at a medium pace around a small platform in the path of aConveyor Belt. The Spark has a similar behavior to red Sparks from the previous game. The Spark also has the same behavior as theSniper andSukōpī seen earlier in the game, except losing a life from the Spark displays an electrocution animation. Unlike other appearances, the Spark in this game lacks eyes. This game also introduces a more commonwire-crossing successor.

Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic /Super Mario Bros. 2[edit]

Artwork fromYume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic

Sparks appear inYume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic andSuper Mario Bros. 2, usually underground or in buildings. Sparks circle platforms, though some can hover in the air if aMushroom Block is pulled out from beneath them. Sparks cannot be jumped on and damage the player character when touched. A Spark is defeated if either hit by an object or from aPOW Block being used nearby. A Spark is defeated automatically if the screen scrolls while they are in a specific position.[3] In original versions, Sparks have red outlines around their eyes; in theSuper Mario All-Stars version and other subsequent remakes, they have yellow outlines as well as an orange outer body outline. In theremake, touching a Spark knocks the player back as the screen briefly pixelates, and an item named theSpark Chaser can expel them fromjar interiors.

This design of Sparks (a black ball with white eyes wearing a red mask and surrounded by electricity) has become the main design, being used in all subsequent appearances of Sparks in theSuper Mario franchise, even being used as a reference for variants.

The Super Mario Bros. Super Show![edit]

Mario, "On Her Majesty's Sewer Service"

A Spark appears in the episode "On Her Majesty's Sewer Service" inThe Super Mario Bros. Super Show! It does not discharge any electricity. The Spark is encountered by Mario andLuigi in theTunnel of Doom as they run from aGoomba. Both are avoided when Mario and Luigi create a grappling hook out of a super spy hose nozzle and mini plunger; apparently unable to stop moving, the Spark and Goomba subsequently crash into one another, causing an explosion.

Super Mario Bros. (Valiant Comics)[edit]

Three Spark
Three Sparks from "Bedtime for Drain-Head"

Sparks appear prominently in comics of theSuper Mario Bros. series of comics, appearing in such stories as "The Legend," "Bedtime for Drain-Head," and "A Mouser in the Houser." Like most enemies featured in the stories, they are shown to be intelligent and fully capable of speech.

Yoshi series[edit]

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island /Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3[edit]

A Piro Dangle's movement pattern inSuper Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

Piro Dangles[4] appear inSuper Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island as uncommon enemies. They emit a flame blaze and have faces similar to that ofFryguy. Occasionally, their blaze temporarily goes out, revealing that underneath they are white spheres. During this time, they are harmless. They only appear on square or rectangular platforms where they move slowly around. Piro Dangles cannot be defeated by normal attacks, even in their harmless phase. They can only be defeated by usingSuper Blue Watermelons on them, causing them to freeze and fall from the platform, or by using anAnywhere POW to turn them intostars. Piro Dangles appear only inBurt The Bashful's Fort, in a secret room where three of them appear guarding a cache of coins. In theremake, they also appear inEndless World of Yoshis. There is also anunused variant ofBoo Blah that has a Piro Dangle on its head. Like most enemies in the game, Piro Dangles are based on aSuper Mario Bros. 2 enemy.

Yoshi's New Island[edit]

InYoshi's New Island, Piro Dangles maintain their appearance and behavior fromSuper Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, and appear only within dark rooms inBeware the Boo Brigade andFort Key Calamity.

Mario vs. Donkey Kong series[edit]

Although normal sparks do not appear in theMario vs. Donkey Kong series, a variant that moves along magnetic objects, known asMagnet Sparky, appears inMario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis andMario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem! The design of the Magnet Sparky is based on theSuper Mario Bros. 2 Sparks.

The Legend of Zelda series[edit]

Zelda Wiki article:Spark

Sparks appear with a similar wall-running behavior in multiple games inTheLegend of Zelda series. InThe Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Sparks flash between orange and blue and are completely invincible, appearing in a few dungeons. In this game, they also share the same graphics as the segmentedfire bars andFire Snakes, which stay orange. Sparks are more common inThe Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening,The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons/Ages, andThe Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, and can be destroyed with theboomerang, which turns them intofairies.
