Starburst, Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope

Starburst is a Spark that appears in Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope, and is the first Spark encountered in the game. It first appears in the prologue as it is escaping from Cursa, joining the player during the tutorial battles that take place on the Darkmess Manta. It is formally recruited to the player's party at the start of the Headlong into the Unknown battle.

Starburst's ability is Turbocharge, which gives the Empowered status to all Heroes in its range for a single turn. Starburst can be upgraded by feeding Star Bits to it, increasing the attack boost. Its passive ability is Physical Protector, which reduces physical damage inflicted to the user. When upgraded, the physical damage is lowered even more.

Starburst is a yellow Spark that resembles a standard Luma.
