Tadpole (enemy)

Tadpoles are jumping enemies from Wario Land 3. Despite resembling tadpoles, they are described as "fish". They attack similarly to Tobī from Wario Land II, except that they are visible in the water, or sometimes lava, before they are ready to leap. They also have the added effect of causing Wario to roll, instead of simply bouncing back, and can only stop once he hits a wall. They are always positioned to knock Wario away from the objective, so they must be avoided. They are also larger than Tobī. They only appear if Wario is on the surface, as they are absent if Wario is underwater. They first appear in The Big Bridge.
