Splorch

Splorches are uncommon enemies that first appear in Super Mario 3D World. They are large orange fireballs that have purple masks around their eyes and a large grin. They first appear in World Castle-A and after that, they usually appear in levels with lava.

Splorches pop out of lava and roll towards the players. They can be pushed back into the lava using projectiles such as those of the Boomerang Flower and Flower. Splorches also leave a trail of lava that damages the players. These enemies can only be defeated by Invincible Mario or White Tanooki Mario.
