Variant of Hoppycat

Big Hoppycats[1] are large Hoppycats that appear during the Wonder Effects of The Hoppycat Trial: Hop, Hop, and Awaaay and The Final Test Wonder Gauntlet in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. Like regular Hoppycats, they leap upwards when the player jumps. However, Big Hoppycats can also destroy terrain when they jump, thereby clearing the way for the player to reach some sections of the level.
