The Beastball is a | The Beastball is a [[Wikipedia:Baseball (ball)|baseball]] originating from the real-life sport. The name "beastball" is likely a play on words due to the item being a baseball, and its habit of chasing opponents after being thrown (akin to a "beast"). In Japanese, it is instead known as the "Makyu(Devil Ball)". It is parody of Japanese 60's baseball comic "Kyojin No Hoshi(巨人の星)". In this comic, main character uses special skill named "Kieru Makyu(消える魔球)", which means "Disappearing Devil Ball" in English. This ball disappears near the strike zone, and suddenly appears at the catcher's mitt. In Japan, this skill is so famous that Japanese baseball's toy "Yakyu Ban(野球盤)" reproduces this "Makyu". | ||

The Beastball functions as a throwable [[projectile]] item. After being thrown, the Beastball will initially travel a short distance forward as expected, but will quickly disappear in a flash of blue flame and reappear next to the nearest opponent, targeting them with a flaming tackle. If the initial throw hits an opponent, that foe is guaranteed to be hit by the second tackle. The second tackle has very high accuracy, being capable of hitting opponents even if they're already experiencing high knockback. Dropping the Beastball with a Z-drop will not cause it to target anyone. | |||
