Birdy

“I'm absolutely exhausted! I hate being a guard! Valentina only gives us the most boring jobs to do!! But I guess this beats Dodo's job. Dodo has to polish Valentina's statues EVERY single day! Ha! Here's how I'd do it!”

—Birdy, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

Birdies are creatures wearing a red bird costume that serve as bodyguards to Valentina in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. However, they seem to have an undying hatred for her, perhaps due to her working them too hard. These creatures appear on the way to Nimbus Land, and inside the palace at Nimbus Land. In battle, they are adept at using Grinder as an offensive attack and have a high attack stat. They can easily resist fire and sleep attacks, but are weak against ice attacks. They also have relatives called Bluebirds who have better magic stats, but lower physical stats as well as reversed strength and weaknesses.
