Template:Character-infobox Octopus is the boss of the Turtle Zone in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins. The Octopus will attack Mario by trying to touch him. In order to defeat the Octopus, Mario had to hit its head three times, which can be difficult as the entire battle with the Octopus takes place underwater.

The Octopus also appears in the Mario vs. Wario comic, which is a (loose) adaptation of Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins. The Octopus attempts to attack Mario while he is crossing a lake, but is stopped when Mario asks what an octopus, a saltwater creature, is doing in a freshwater lake. The Octopus ponders this and then exclaims that that must be why it hasn't been feeling good. Mario offers to pour some salt in the water for the Octopus, but accidentally pours sugar instead. The Octopus is last seen lying face down in the water, unmoving. Template:BoxTop
