Balkiries are a Badnik species from the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise modeled after both a bird and a plane. They are generally depicted as having a red body with a yellow beak. Balkiries made their first overall appearance in Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for the Sega Genesis, but their first Mario-related appearance is in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020.
In Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020, Balkiries are featured as enemies in the Tokyo Sky Flight mini-game. Here, their sprites are reused from Sonic the Hedgehog 2, albeit upscaled. Here, Balkiries fly forward while firing projectiles at the playable characters. A Balkiry can be quickly defeated from with one gunshot from the Tornado. Whenever this occurs, the player receives 200 points.
