'''Spiky balls''', also known as '''prickly balls''', are dangerous stage hazards which feature in the [[Rayman series|''Rayman'' series]].
==In ''[[Rayman 1]]'' and its spinoffs==
===''[[Rayman 1]]''===
'''Spiky balls''', also known as '''prickly balls''', are dangerous blue objects from ''[[Rayman 1|Rayman]]''. They exist in various sizes. The most common kind, of small size, possesses eyes and randomly looks around itself: they are found in all worlds but [[the Dream Forest]] and [[Picture City]]. The other kind, of much larger size, has no eyes and is sometimes attached to a rocker, which is made of three small ones with blank eyes. If it is not already spinning, [[Rayman]] can knock it but he must be careful not to get hurt. They are only found in [[the Blue Mountains]] and [[the Caves of Skops]].

A different type of spiky ball appears in this game, this variation has visible teeth showing, and is of brown colouration. It appears only in the [[Shining Glade]] floating above bodies of water. Much like other incarnations of spiky ball, they cannot be destroyed, only merely dodged.

==In ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', [[Rayman Legends|''Legends'']] and their spinoffs==
Spiky balls make a reappearance in ''[[Rayman Origins]]'' and its sequel, ''[[Rayman Legends]]''.

They have a different appearance depending on the world they are situated in. In the [[Desert of Dijiridoos]] they are yellow and have a [[bird]] like appearance, complete with wings and a beak.

[[File:Spiky ball RO 1.jpg|thumb|left|320px|A yellow spiky ball variation]]


In [[Gourmand Land]] they are blue [[fish]], similar in appearance to the Spiky balls in the original game. In the [[Back to Origins]] mode in ''Rayman Legends'', their colour has been changed to yellow.


In ''[[Rayman Designer]]'', a green version of the small spiky balls was introduced in [[the Dream Forest]]. Except for the colour and location, there are no differences with the blue ones.
They last appear in the [[Sea of Serendipity]], and reappear in ''Rayman Legends'' in [[20,000 Lums Under the Sea]]. They are coloured pink, and have a similar appearance to puffer fish. These fish are mobile and will flee other enemies such as [[Murray]].


Orange spiky balls appear in ''[[Rayman 2 Forever]]'', the Game Boy Color adaptation of ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|Rayman 2]]''.

In this game, blue spiky balls appear as obstacles in some levels, and serve the same purpose acting as invincible stage hazards that the player must avoid.
