'''Drill Bit''' is a minor character built by the [[Smithy Gang]] in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. It is related to [[Jabit]]s, and is a red recolor of them. It is mentioned late in the game by one of the [[Manager]]'s [[Pounder]]s as a new creation scheduled to be finished on time. Its role in the game is acting as one of [[Smithy]]'s three advisors that appear at the end of his initial fight (alongside an [[Aero]] and a [[Shymore]]), urging Smithy not to angrily shake the floor for his own sake.


Drill Bit is mentioned as a boss enemy in the Shogakukan and [[Nintendo Power]] guides, with the former placing it between the fake [[Speardovich|Yaridovich]] and second [[Belome]] and the latter specifying it in [[Star Hill Region|World 5]].<ref>''Super Mario RPG'' Final Edition, page 100.</ref><ref>Pelland, Scott, and Kent Miller. ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'' Player's Guide. Page 113.</ref> It is likely that it had a connection with Yaridovich, as the later [[Machine Made]] Yaridovich can use a move called [[Multiplier|Multiplier!]] in which it splits into four grey Machine Made Drill Bits rather than create a [[Mirage Attack|doppelgänger]]. This is supported by the fact that Drill Bit exists in the [[list of Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars pre-release and unused content#Enemies|game data]] as a single enemy or a group between the monster values of the [[Sea]] area and [[Land's End]], and its [[Thought Peek|thought]] "This is for Yaridovich!"

==Statistics==
'''Drill Bit''' (Japanese: ツッツン, ''Tsuttsun'') is a minor character built by the [[Smithy Gang]] in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. It seems to be related to [[Jabit]]s, as it is a recolor of them, but it had not entered mass-production by the time of [[Mario]] and company's arrival. It is first mentioned late in the game by one of the [[Manager]]'s [[Pounder]]s as a new creation that was finished ahead of schedule, but its only real role in the final game is acting as one of [[Smithy]]'s three advisors that appear at the end of his initial fight (alongside [[Aero]] and a [[Shyster]]), telling Smithy that it would be best if he did not shake the floor in anger for his own sake.

Drill Bit got a surprising amount of attention when fans noticed that it was listed in a contemporary [[Nintendo Power]] guide. According to the guide, Drill Bit would have appeared as a boss enemy in World 5 - the general location of [[Star Hill]], [[Seaside Town]], [[Sea|the Sea]], and the [[Sunken Ship]]. It is theorized that it had a connection with [[Yaridovich]], as the later [[Machine Made]] Yaridovich can use a move called [[Multiplier!]] in which it splits into four grey Machine Made Jabits or Drill Bits rather than create a [[Yaridovich (double)|doppelgänger]]. This is supported by the fact that Drill Bit exists in the [[List of Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars beta elements#Enemies|game's coding]] as an enemy group of one and five just before the monster values of [[Land's End]], and even say "This is for [[Yaridovich]]!" if [[Mallow]] uses [[Psychopath]] in a hacked battle.
