Dr. Mario 64[edit]

A Pneumo, now renamed Jellybob, reappears in Dr. Mario 64. In Story mode, Dr. Mario faces Jellybob as his fifth opponent. When Mad Scienstein runs away from both Dr. Mario and Wario at the beach, Mad Scienstein knocks a coconut down from a coconut tree, hitting Jellybob on the head behind a rock. As Wario passes by, Octo mistakenly assumes Wario did it and stings him, turning him into Puffy Wario. As Dr. Mario approaches Jellybob, it got surprised, initiating a battle at the beach. As an opponent in Vs. mode, Jellybob has the second-lowest AI level, tying with Silky, Appleby, and Octo.
