Lava Drop

Lava Drops are small, floating, fireball-like enemies found in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and its port, Super Mario Advance 3: Yoshi's Island. They move either up and down, or left and right. The player can't destroy them with regular attacks, and as a result, they have to be avoided completely. They appear in various cave levels and in groups. They can be killed by passing through a Middle Ring, and also can be obliterated with a ? Cloud item.

Lava Drops surprisingly appear in Mario Party 8 and in this game they do not fly. Instead they look more like Podoboos and they appear in one level.
