Podoboos are a leaping, lava-dwelling fireball enemy debuting in the Mario franchise, where it is currently known as Lava Bubble. They appear in a few games of the 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
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 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 Subrosian 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 and a possible Gold Key route of Vaati's Palace. In 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.
