- “This pirate is part penguin and part racoon. Watch out for its spiked stomach ball.”
- —Super Mario Land 3: Wario Land instruction booklet, page 19
Penkoons[1] are bulky soldiers that patrol areas in Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3. When Wario comes too close to them, they make the spiked ball in their stomachs pop out. Despite their horned helmets, Wario can harm them by jumping on them; however, due to the spikes on their stomach, they cannot be harmed by charging head on by the Body Slam.
