| Variant of | Luma Rabbid |
Sparks are a hybrid species of Lumas and Rabbids that appears in Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. They resemble Lumas, but with a Rabbid's face and ears. They come in a variety of colors and designs, each with its own power. During the game's story, Cursa sends her army to capture the Sparks in order to absorb its energy, and Mario and his team set out to rescue them. After rescuing a Spark, the team can use its power to attack enemies in battle.[1][2]
