'''Pansers''' are enemies commonly found in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. Along with [[Pokey]]s, they are the only known hostile plant species in [[Subcon]], although Pansers were created by [[Wart]].<ref>"''The only plant life Wart created for the world of dreams. It spouts fire.''" - ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' instruction booklet, page 26 (Panser description).</ref> There are three types of Pansers: red, pink, and either green or gray depending on location.

The similar [[Volcano Plant|Volcano Lotus]] introduced in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' additionally shares the same Japanese name as Panser, suggesting a connection.
