Hyper Cleft

A Hyper Cleft is a bright green Cleft that is first encountered in Paper Mario at Gusty Gulch. The only real physical difference between a Hyper Cleft and a normal Cleft is that Hyper Clefts are green and have purple shoes and eyes. Hyper Clefts are also capable of charging their attacks to do a ton of damage, as are other "hyper" enemies. They are also spiked and jumping on them will not work unless Mario is wearing the Spike Shield badge.

Hyper Clefts reappear in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, this time in the areas surrounding Twilight Town, called Twilight Trail.

Using quake or defense-piercing attacks are the most effective measures of defeating these Clefts.
