Hothead

Hotheads are large balls of sparking energy that are first encountered in the game Super Mario World. They slowly move around platforms and don't pose much of a threat. These creatures only appear in a few fortresses and castles. They can usually be found in areas with Li'l Sparkys, which are essentially smaller versions of Hotheads.

Hotheads have made a reappearance in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as an item. The Hotheads, just like in Super Mario World, will stick to the stage when thrown and burn anyone that touches it. It will also grow larger if its attacked, maxing out at approximately 3 times its original diameter. Hotheads move quickly around the platform they are on, but may also just fall off entirely.

Trophy Information from Super Smash Bros. Brawl
''An item that, when tossed, sticks to the terrain and moves, causing damage to those it touches. Whoever threw it won't take damage. It will grow larger if it's attacked, which ups its attack range. However, an increase in size corresponds to a decrease in the time it stays on the screen. A really big Hothead will take up the entire screen, and is quite a sight to behold.''
