Podoboos are one of several ''Super Mario'' enemies to appear in [[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]], specifically appearing in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening]]'', ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons]]'', ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages]]'', ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords|The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords]]'', and ''[[zeldawiki:Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer feat. The Legend of Zelda|Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer featuring The Legend of Zelda]]''. In the first three, they appear in sidescrolling segments and act just like in the ''Super Mario'' games. In the ''Oracle'' games, a subspecies of the Lava Bubble, [[zeldawiki:Podoboo Tower|Podoboo Tower]], exists in the subterranean world of [[zeldawiki:Subrosia|Subrosia]] in ''Oracle of Seasons'', and in the burning ruins of [[zeldawiki:Symmetry City|Symmetry City]] in ''Oracle of Ages''. In ''Four Swords'', where they are known as '''Bubbling Lava''',<ref>Stratton, Bryan, and Stephen Stratton. ''The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past/Four Swords'' Prima's Official Strategy Guide.

Lava Bubbles appear in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and its remake ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]''. They share the same behavioral patterns as in ''Super Mario World''. In this game, Lava Bubbles can be eaten by [[Yoshi]]s, giving them the power of the [[fire watermelon|red watermelon]]: the ability to spit fire. Sometimes, they jump in arcs sideways. If they land on solid ground while doing this, they will continue to bounce along it.

In battle, a Lava Bubble attacks by spinning its body into one of Mario's party members. A Lava Bubble can also use the special attack [[Hot Shot]], which allows the flame creature to shoot a small fire orb at a party member. Needless to say, fire is ineffective against Lava Bubbles. However, despite being made of fire, Mario can surprisingly use [[jump]] attacks on Lava Bubbles. Lava Bubbles typically fight in groups of one to three. There are also two Lava Bubble variants, the [[Lava Blubble]] and [[Lava Babble]], which can be found in [[Booster Tower]] and [[Barrel Volcano]], respectively.

In the Japanese-only ''{{wp|Kaeru no Tame ni Kane wa Naru}}'', Podoboos appear with their usual design as obstacles in sidescrolling areas. They jump from lava as they normally do, but sometimes travel in wide arcs, turning sideways as they do so.
