Beaker

Beakers come in two forms; green and red. Those beakers have different effects in every game: Papu Papu and Nitros Oxide use both kinds of beakers in boss challenges. N. Brio can drink the beakers in order to transform into monsters to defeat Crash Bandicoot, like a magic potion.
 * Potion.png beakers can create blob enemies in the first Crash Bandicoot game, but in Crash Team Racing it just spins players around when they touch it.
 * Red_Potion.png beakers are much more dangerous, exploding in Crash Bandicoot and causing rain clouds to appear above racers in Crash Team Racing, causing the road to become slippy. Hitting multiple red beakers makes the road so slippy all control over the steering is lost.
