'''Twirlips'''<ref>Browne, Catherine. 2010. ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 30.</ref> are enemies that appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Their name is a combination of "twirl" and "tulip," describing their motion and appearance. At first glance, they appear as white bud-shaped creatures that resemble onions with two beady eyes. To attack, a Twirlip turns into a pink flower with a yellow center and quickly spins around the area like a top. It does this from time to time.
'''Twirlips'''<ref>Browne, Catherine. 2010. ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Premiere Edition guide. Page 30.</ref> are enemies that appear ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Their name is a combination of the words ''twirl'', describing their motion, and ''tulip'', describing their appearance, which resembles that of real-world tulips. At first glance, they appear as white bud shaped creatures that resemble onions with two beady eyes. To attack, they turn into a pink flower with a yellow center and quickly spin around the area like a drill. They do this from time to time.


While twirling, a Twirlip can be damaged only by [[stomp]]ing on its head, which makes the Twirlip drop a [[coin]]. In a Twirlip's bud form, [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] can use any attack method to defeat it, which makes the Twirlip drop three [[Star Bit]]s unless stomped. [[Yoshi]] can also eat a Twirlip, but only while it is in bud form. In some [[galaxy|galaxies]], Twirlips can also be found on a Bonus Planet. When shot by a Star Bit from the [[Star Pointer]], they get stunned in place for a moment.
In their flower form, Twirlips can only be damaged by stomping on their heads. In their bud form, [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] can use any attack method to defeat them. [[Yoshi]] can also eat a Twirlip but only while it is in bud form. They appear in a few galaxies, and are also fought on some Bonus Planets.


In their opened form, Twirlips can actually defeat another Twirlip when the latter is stopped by a [[Co-Star Luma]] and the two Twirlips collide.
A Twirlip in its flower form can actually defeat another Twirlip when the latter is stopped by a [[Co-Star Luma]] and letting the former run into it.
