History

Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis

Sparks (here known as Sparkies[1]) appear in Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis. This time, they only travel along magnetized objects. They specifically appear on the Magnet Mania floor, where they slowly move clockwise from the red side of metal blocks with an "S" engraving. If a Magnetic Block is disabled from underneath it, the Spark will vanish with it and another one will soon generate from the original block. They resemble their appearance from Super Mario Bros. 2.

Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!

Sparks (now known as Magnet Sparkies[2]) reappear once more in Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem! They act much as they do in their previous appearance, except they move at a slightly faster speed and briefly retreat into their blocks (now known as Magnet Sparky Generators[2]) upon touching it rather than passing them by. They appear in Cosmic Adventure, and are a solid blue rather than flash yellow.
