Variants

Anglefish[1] are cyan triangular fish enemies that appear in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. Their first appearance is in The Anglefish Trial: Ready, Aim, Fly! in Shining Falls. If approached by a player, they will jump toward them at an angle towards a player. Their jumping angle varies depending on where the player is, hinted at their bright blue glow, forming an arrow. They can be stomped on while they attack.

In a Wonder Effect, Anglefish become Wonder Anglefish, which instead jump and fly in set directions, sometimes spawning off-screen.

Naming[edit]

"Anglefish" comes from "angle" (alluding to their targeting behavior) and "fish",[1] evoking the similar-shaped freshwater angelfish.
