+A '''Lava Lotus''' is an artificial flower<ref>"''An artificial flower that grows and blooms deep in the sea. Look out for the lava balls that it will release.''" – ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' English instruction booklet, page 36.</ref> that lives underwater in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. It resembles a large translucent version of [[Panser]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', but according to ''[[Nintendo Power]]'', Lava Lotuses have a relation to [[Piranha Plant]]s,<ref>"''An aquatic relative of the Piranha Plants, the Lotus spits fiery lava bits.''" – ''Nintendo Power'' Volume 13, page 9.</ref> despite there being no such indication in the original instruction booklet. Lava Lotuses are capable of creating and storing [[lava]] balls under their transparent petals and attack by opening up to release them. The lava balls can go through [[platform]]s and make navigating underwater difficult. The number they shoot out is random and can be up to five at a time. The lava balls travel rather slowly and in a straight line from their point of release. They can be defeated only by [[Hammer Mario]] or [[Invincible Mario]].
-A '''Lava Lotus''' is an artificial<ref name="manual">''"An artificial flower that grows and blooms deep in the sea. Look out for the lava balls that it will release."'' &mdash; ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' manual description</ref> plant in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' that lives underwater. They are capable of creating and storing lava balls<ref name="manual"></ref> under their transparent leaves and attack by opening up to release them. The fireballs can go through platforms and make navigating underwater difficult. The number they shoot out is random and can be up to five at a time. The fireballs travel rather slowly and in a straight line from their point of release. The Japanese name of the Lava Lotus, Suichūka, refers to a type of artificial flower that blossoms underwater,<ref>http://themushroomkingdom.net/smb3_j-e.shtml</ref> and even the American manual refers to them as artificial.
+Lava Lotuses have appeared in {{wp|Western world|Western}}-exclusive ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' media a few times. One appears briefly in the episode "[[Oh, Brother!]]" of ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', where it unleashes lava balls on [[Frog Mario|Frog Luigi]], who manages to swim past them with ease. In the book ''[[Dinosaur Dilemma]]'', [[Mario]] avoids some Lava Lotuses while collecting [[coin]]s in [[Lake Trilobite]].

-Lava Lotuses were given a land counterpart, the [[Volcano Lotus]], in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', which did not feature Lava Lotuses. They had a very similar attack pattern, but they were terrestrial instead of aquatic. These Volcano Lotuses also appeared in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', leaving Lava Lotuses with only one game appearance (not including ''Super Mario Bros. 3''{{'}}s remakes).

-A single Lava Lotus appears briefly in ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' episode "[[Oh, Brother!]]". This Lava Lotus unleashes its fireballs on [[Frog Mario|Frog Luigi]], who manage to swim past them with ease, mainly due to the [[Frog Suit]] that [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] has advised him to wear.
