Togenobi

Togenobi (トゲノビ ) are octopus enemies that appear in Wario Land 4. They only appear in the Emerald Passage level Mystic Lake. Togenobi have four rotating tentacles holding maces that can hurt Wario if he touches them. It seems to be living in a shell, just like a hermit crab. Wario cannot defeat it, so he must dodge it; he can freely swim through the Togenobi's tentacles, but touching a mace will make him lose health. In Normal mode, only one Togenobi appears, while two are found in the Hard and S-Hard modes. The Togenobi appearing in all modes are found at the end of the level, near the switch and the Keyzer.Their name comes from “棘”（toge,thorn）and “伸び”(nobi,stretching).
