When Homer and Lisa arrive in the video game "Big Super Happy Fun Fun Game", a parody of Japanese video games such as Pokémon, they encounter Mr. Dirt (who is really Milhouse van Houten). Mr. Dirt tells Homer and Lisa that he has taken over the game with the help of the sumo wrestlers and the Sparklemon. To free Mr. Sparkle, the true leader of the land, they must defeat three Sparklemon.
The Simpsons Game[]
At the end of the fire-section of the video game, Homer and Lisa encounter Jimbo Jones and are transported to a battleground. There, they fight Ratachu and ultimately win. They progress to the ice-level, where they encounter Ralph Wiggum. There, they fight Poo and once again are triumphant. In the final section of the game, they encounter Sherri and Terry Mackleberry. They fight Dirt Donkey who is the strongest of the Sparklemon and are once again triumphant. This results in the duo collecting Sparkleballs which are deposited into containers, releasing Mr. Sparkle.
