'''Baddie Boxes'''<ref>von Esmarch, Nick. ''Super Mario 3D Land'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 11.</ref><ref>Musa, Alexander, and Geson Hatchett. ''Super Mario 3D World'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 18.</ref> are [[block]]s appearing in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''. They are dark olive-green boxes with dark-yellow borders and [[Bowser]]'s [[emblem]] in red printed on their sides. When a Baddie Box is approached, the Bowser symbols pulse red (doing so only three times before opening in ''Super Mario 3D World'') and the box releases an enemy, though it will stop creating enemies if it has released three that are still onscreen. Defeating these enemies causes the box to generate more to replace them.

'''Baddie Boxes''' are [[Block]]s appearing in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. They are dark olive-green boxes with dark yellow borders and Bowser's symbols in red printed on its sides. They are semi-rare, featured in worlds such as [[World 2-4 (Super Mario 3D Land)|World 2-4]] and [[Special 1-3]]. These blocks release two kinds of enemies: [[Goomba]]s in normal levels and [[Dry Bone]]s in castle levels. Baddie Boxes have an infinite amount of enemies. They can be destroyed with a pound of [[Statue Mario]] or with a [[Star|Starman]], though these methods may prove fatal as Baddie Boxes are typically found in open air or with [[lava]] underneath. A glitch that occurs when [[White Tanooki Mario]] ground pounds prevents him from falling through the box. The box explodes and the game starts to lag. This glitch can be done by Invincible Mario or Luigi in Special 1-3 because the Baddie Boxes are sitting on a platform and not in the air.


Baddie Boxes are semi-rare, appearing in [[World 2-4 (Super Mario 3D Land)|World 2-4]], {{world-link|5|castle|World 5-Castle (Super Mario 3D Land)}}, [[Special 1-3]], and [[Special 8-3]] in ''Super Mario 3D Land''. These blocks release two kinds of enemies: [[Goomba]]s in World 2-4 and Special 1-3, and [[Dry Bones]] in World 5-Castle and Special 8-3. They can be destroyed by the [[White Tanooki Mario|White Tanooki form]] or [[Statue Mario|Statue form]], or while [[Mario]] (or [[Luigi]]) is [[Invincible Mario|invincible]], although Baddie Boxes are typically found above hazards such as an [[pit|abyss]] or [[lava]].
In World 2-4 and Special 1-3, Baddie Boxes are seen releasing Goombas, while in {{world-link|5|castle|World 5-Castle (Super Mario 3D Land)}} and [[Special 8-3]], they release infinite Dry Bones.


A [[glitch]] can occur in ''Super Mario 3D Land'' when White Tanooki Mario or Invincible Mario [[Ground Pound|ground-pound]]s; it prevents him from falling through a Baddie Box, which explodes, and the game starts to lag. This glitch can be done in World 2-4, World 5-Castle, and Special 1-3, with the last being the only [[level]] where the player can also use Luigi for the glitch. Another glitch exists in ''Super Mario 3D World'', where if a Baddie Box is destroyed while it is activated, its sound [[List of Super Mario 3D World glitches#Infinite Baddie Box Sound*|will loop indefinitely]].<ref name="SonOfAGlitch">A+Start (Mar 15, 2019) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rPdbTaBrBQ Super Mario 3D World Glitches - Son of a Glitch - Episode 87].

Baddie Boxes are also found in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''. They are also quite rare in the game, and they only release [[Bob-omb]]s. They can also be destroyed by [[Golden Statue Mario]].
 
{{br|left}}
In ''Super Mario 3D World'' and ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury'', Baddie Boxes appear only in [[Bob-ombs Below]], [[Bowser's Bob-omb Brigade]], and [[Super Block Land]], and in ''[[Bowser's Fury]]'', they appear only in [[Roiling Roller Isle]]; they release only [[Bob-omb]]s. They can also be destroyed by [[Lucky Cat Mario]] and, in  ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury'' only, [[White Cat Mario]].

These boxes are similar to the enemy-releasing [[Warp Pipe|pipe]]s and [[jar]]s in the 2D games of the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] and [[Yoshi (franchise)|''Yoshi'' franchise]], though those usually cannot be destroyed.
 
The Bowser Jr. Block in the queue of Bowser Jr. Shadow Showdown in the [[Super Nintendo World]] theme park areas uses the ''Super Mario 3D Land'' design of Baddie Boxes but with [[Bowser Jr.]]'s emblem instead of Bowser's.
