Would it be more helpful if this category was reworked into something like "enemies that can cause poison status ailment in the Mario RPG games"? Icon showing how many lives Mario has left. From Super Mario 64 DS. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 01:16, 19 June 2015 (EDT)

Is this a no-brainer? I'd like to have some other thoughts on this. We don't have other categories on enemies that cause a certain status ailment, but that shouldn't stop anything.

This category is not just for enemies that can cause the poison status ailment however. It is for "various species and characters in the Mario series that are composed of poison, or can produce or manipulate poison." It can be considered similar to the categories for Fire, Ice, and Electrical Enemies.
Well, this category hasn't seen use since this probably doesn't encompass all enemies that cause the poison status ailment. And I frankly find those definitions silly. Mario and Luigi aren't categorized as "Fire Creatures", "Ice Creatures", and "Electrical Creatures" (Mario can use Zap Tap and Thunder Bolt; for Luigi, see Superstar Saga and Strikers Charged), but technically, they are (yet, Fire Mario is there as a "Fire Creature"). Oh well, if those categories work, I'd just add the categories for those creatures as well. Icon showing how many lives Mario has left. From Super Mario 64 DS. It's me, Mario!
