Quark Mine

From SmashWiki, the Super Smash Bros. wiki

"Quark Mine" is an unofficial name.
Quark Mines act as obstacles in the Subspace Emissary.
A Quark Mine is a trap in the Subspace Emissary. Quark Mines appear as floating black mines with green markings. Like Jyks, they either sit in one place or move in a predictable pattern. However, when touched or attacked by a character, they violently explode. This explosion can set off a chain reaction and has very high KO potential. A Quark Mine's green markings turn magenta and make a beeping noise when approached by a character as a sort of warning. Quark Mines often appear in large groups, which makes them harder to avoid. However, this can mean a single projectile will destroy the whole chain.

While most Quark Mines sit still or move in lines or circles, one batch in The Subspace Bomb Factory can "fling" themselves at characters that land on nearby platforms.

Most Quark Mines are found on the Isle of Ancients, in the Research Facility, and in the Subspace Bomb Factory, while others can be found in The Wilds, on the Halberd, and throughout The Great Maze.
