German Name
So, as seen by these two pages of the Spieleberater, there's two names for the lava droplet enemies: Lavabuu and Lavallon. One belongs to Lava Ghost and the other to Spark Spook. Problem is is that both entries use the artwork for Lava Ghost, and the second bio is a bit too blurry to make out. So...which name do we give to Lava Ghost and which do we give to Spark Spook? 08:25, June 10, 2022 (EDT)
 * Does the clearer description give a clue on which one it's referring to? LinkTheLefty (talk) 09:09, June 10, 2022 (EDT)
 * Der Brödelschleim poppt manchmal aus der Lava raus und ich muß aufpassen, daß ich mir nicht die Nase verbrenne! (The dough slime sometimes pops out of the lava and I have to be careful not to burn my nose!)
 * Not really. 09:19, June 10, 2022 (EDT)
 * I tried zooming in to the other one and running an automatic translation to see if anything else came up, but it seems like it's equally vague (if I'm typing it right). My guess is that "Lavabuu" is probably Lava Ghost due to "Buu" being "Boo", which is how the German wiki takes it as well, given that they seem more ghost-like than the ordinary Spark Spooks. Would the etymology of "Lavallon" give us another clue (I'm assuming it's the simpler "Lava-balloon")? LinkTheLefty (talk) 09:50, June 10, 2022 (EDT)
