'''Podoboos''' are a leaping, lava-dwelling fireball enemy debuting in the ''[[Mariowiki:Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise, where it is currently known as '''Lava Bubble'''. They appear in a few games of the ''[[The Legend of Zelda (series)|The Legend of Zelda]]'' franchise as well, typically with the same basic behavior.

==History==
===''The Legend of Zelda'' series===
====''The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening''====
[[File:Podoboo LA sprite.png|frame]]
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening]]'', Podoboos appear jumping in the lava-filled tunnels of [[Turtle Rock]]. They solely appear in the side-scrolling areas of it. The boss of the dungeon, [[Hot Head]], is similar to Podoboos. In the [[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening (Nintendo Switch)|Nintendo Switch remake]], they are among the only ''Mario'' enemies to not get a figurine.

====''The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons''====
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons]]'', Podoboos have the same basic appearance and behavior as before. Once again, they appear in side-scrolling lava-filled areas of a late-game dungeon, this being the [[Subrosia]]n [[Sword & Shield Maze]]. A relative called the [[Podoboo Tower]] appears more commonly.

====''The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages''====
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages]]'', Podoboos are instead used as projectiles by the second boss, [[Head Thwomp]]. It may do this on its own accord, but also does so if it lands on its green face. Podoboo Towers also reappear.

====''The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords''====
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords]]'', Podoboos, known as '''Bubbling Lava''', appear as rare enemies in the [[Hero Key]] route of [[Death Mountain]]. In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Anniversary Edition|Four Swords Anniversary Edition]]'', they also appear extremely commonly behind the Hero door of the [[Hero's Trial]]. They again bounce from lava, but now do so in a top-down camera perspective. Now, once they jump from the lava, they will bounce along the ground after a [[Link]], disappearing after a large amount of bounces. They tend to come from small, lava-filled holes, and can do so infinitely. If one touches a Link, he will catch fire and run wildly. If it is hit, it will split into two tiny ones which ricochet around extremely fast. The boss of Death Mountain, [[Gouen]], resembles a giant one and acts similar. Bubbling Lava's graphics exist in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap]]'', but are unused.

===''Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer featuring The Legend of Zelda''===
In ''[[Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer featuring The Legend of Zelda]]'', Podoboos appear again as enemies.
