'''Hotheads''' are large balls of sparking energy that first appear in the game ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Hotheads travel slowly on platforms.


'''Hotheads''' are giant balls of sparking energy in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. They slowly move around platforms and don't pose much of a threat. They're only in a few fortresses and castles. Usually moving near them are [[Li'l Sparky]]s.
==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario World''====
Hotheads first appear in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. They slowly move around platforms and can be defeated by [[Invincible Mario]] or [[Cape Mario|Caped Mario]]'s Body Press. They are found in [[6 Wendy's Castle|#6 Wendy's Castle]] and [[Front Door]], specifically in rooms with [[Lil Sparky|Lil Sparkies]].

====''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3''====
*[[Sparky]]s
In ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Hotheads are found in the [[World-e]] levels [[A Sky-High Adventure]] and [[Puzzling Pipe Maze]]. Unlike in ''Super Mario World'', they can be defeated by [[Statue Mario]]'s stomp or by [[hammer]]s thrown by [[Hammer Mario]].
*[[Spark]]s
*[[Li'l Sparky]]s

===''Super Princess Peach''===
Hotheads reappear in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]''. They behave similarly to how they act in ''Super Mario World'', and are invincible to everything [[Princess Peach|Peach]] can do. They are found in [[Shriek Mansion]], [[Fury Volcano]], and [[Bowser's Villa]]. Unlike most other enemies in the game, they do not have a [[vibe]]-based counterpart.

[[File:Hothead Brawl artwork.png|thumb|120px|left|Hothead's artwork in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', which gives it a more realistic design]]
Hotheads appear as an item in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Like in ''Super Mario World'', they stick to the stage when thrown and burn anyone that touches it, and also release powerful sparks periodically when moving. It also grows larger if hit with fire and electric attacks, an ability it was never shown to have in the ''Super Mario'' franchise. Hotheads move quickly around the platform they are on, but can also just fall off entirely. In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', a Hothead also appears as a support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]], equipping the fighter with a Hothead at the start of battle when used.
 
Hothead's design in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' is more realistic-looking, but ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' design it more similarly to its appearance in ''Super Mario World''.

A really big Hothead will take up the entire screen, and is quite a sight to behold.
