The Balloon resembles an octopus. They have a red-colored inflated head. For appendages, they have several grey tubes hanging from their undercarriage. They also have cartoon eyes. To get around, Balloons hover.
Overview
The first and only appearance of the Balloons was in Sonic Advance 2, where they appear as enemies. They are only encountered in Ice Paradise.
In gameplay, Balloons hover back and forth between two set points. Simultaneously, they fire a laser from their underside every few seconds. However, the lasers are aimed in different directions. As such, where the Balloon's laser will go can be unpredictable. However, some Balloons do not move, and instead fire lasers while stationary. They can be defeated using any attack.
Powers and abilities
Balloons are equipped with laser shooters underneath them that they can shoot in multiple directions.
Trivia
They bear some resemblance to the Takkon from Sonic Advance 3, even sharing a similar attack pattern.
