Podoboos (at the time, called "Podoboos") first appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', as simple fire balls that would jump out of the lava in simple patterns in an attempt to burn Mario whenever the plumber tried to jump over them. In this game, they are invincible, and only appear in [[Castle]]s.

''[[Super Mario World]]'' marks the first time that they were referred to as '''Podoboos''', as can be seen in the player's guide for the game. It is also the first time Podoboos are shown to have eyes. They again appear in castle levels, where they act the same as in their previous appearances — they simply jump out of the lava in an attempt to burn Mario. However, some are now found outside the lava at all times, bouncing around the rooms of castles. This behavior is similar to [[Boo Buddy Snake]]s in [[Ghost House]]s and the [[Fireball (Mario Bros.)|red Fireball]]s found in the ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'' game.

In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and [[Super Mario 64 DS|its remake]], Podoboos are rare, only appearing in [[Lethal Lava Land]]. They jump out of the lava horizontally and bounce on the bridges, then they come back to the lava. They are indestructible, and if Mario touches one, it causes him to uncontrollably run and lose three wedges of health, like all other fiery enemies or obstacles. In the battle with [[Bowser]] in [[Bowser in the Sky]], he spits some green fireballs that turn into Podoboos which immediately bounce towards Mario. They disappear after a few seconds. In the remake, Yoshi can eat a Podoboo, causing him to spit out fire, similar to his ability in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''.
