'''Balls''' are items appearing in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' and the game's [[Super Mario Advance|remake]]. They are found only inside [[vase]]s and can be used to clear all enemies on the ground and the wall. The ball works by sticking to any surface moving at a high speed, over time the ball shrinks until it is reduced to nothing. The ball's design appears to be a silly face, similar faces can be seen on objects found in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' (black eyes with white pupils, a gaping mouth and two gaped square teeth).
