Scutlet (enemy)

Scutlets are tick-like creatures that appear as enemies in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. A large member of the species that is also named Scutlet in English is found inside Bowser's stomach as a boss Mario and Luigi have to face. Later in the game, more Scutlets appear outside of Bowser's body in Dimble Wood, which are much smaller than the boss. For Bowser, they can be defeated in one hit for extra coins in the overworld, meaning they are exclusive for the Mario Bros. to battle normally. During the battle, they appear in high numbers, and will attack by running at the bros. Before, they show whom they're going to attack. The attack is countered by jumping.
