List of Adventure Mode enemies

This is a complete listing of the common enemies that appeared in the Adventure Mode of Super Smash Bros. Melee.

ReDead
ReDeads are enemies from The Legend of Zelda series. In Adventure Mode, they can jump onto characters and do damage to them by slowly sucking out their health. Rarely a ReDead will come out of a Party Ball in Versus Mode.

Octorok
Octoroks are purple octopus like enemies from the Legend of Zelda series. The player can encounter them in Super Smash Bros. Melee, as enemies in the Underground Maze in Adventure Mode. They attack by spitting rocks at the fighters. They also appear during about any type of melee mode hidden in carrier items along with ReDeads, Goombas, and other creatures found in Adventure Mode.

The Octolots and Octovaders from Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars might be designed as a reference to Octoroks. Octoroks were also briefly parodied in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, which featured an almost identical species of monsters known as the Chuckoroks. Additionally, Octoroks, like several other generic Zelda enemies, had an enemy based on them in Super Paper Mario. In this case, Octoroks were parodied by Squiglets, Squigs, Squogs, Squoinkers, and Dark Squiglets. Most Electrogoomba (a.k.a. Octoomba) variants and King Kaliente from Super Mario Galaxy and its sequel may be inspired from Octoroks due to similarity in their appearance and the fact that they spit objects much like Octoroks do.

Like Like
Like Likes are gelatinous tube creatures from The Legend of Zelda series. In Adventure Mode, they can be found in the Underground Maze along with Octoroks and ReDeads. If a character comes in contact with them, they will be swallowed whole, causing ten damage immediately. The Like Like will continue to do damage to the character until he or she can break free. They also sometime appear out of a container such as the Party Ball.

Topi
Topis are small, round creatures with white fur coats. They normally inhabit arctic climates. Topis are common enemies of the Ice Climbers (first debuting in the Ice Climbers' eponymous debut game Ice Climber). They also appear as an enemy in the stage Icicle Mountain in Adventure Mode.

In the Japanese version of Super Smash Bros. Melee, Topis are small seals rather than the yeti-like creature seen in Western versions. The reason for this strange change is actually based on the enemy's original appearance in the NES version of Ice Climber; although Topis originated in the Japanese version of their first appearance as the small seals Japanese gamers are familiar with, issues regarding animal cruelty eventually changed them to more "fictional" creatures for English versions of both Ice Climber and Super Smash Bros. Melee. It should be noted, however, that the special Famicom Disk System edition of Ice Climber, only released in Japan, has the overseas design.
