Moon Cleft

A Moon Cleft is a very powerful sub-species of Clefts found in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, during Chapter 7 (that is to say on the Moon, as their name implies). These moon-dwelling enemies have insanely high stats but are easy to beat when an explosion, preferably from Bobbery, flips them over, lowering their Defense down to 0. Like their relatives, they disguise themselves as rocks, but they reveal their true form when Mario comes close enough. Moon Clefts attack by charging at their opponents, and cannot be stomped because of their spikes.

They return in Super Paper Mario in Chapter 5-1, near Downtown of Crag. Their attack pattern remains the same: they charge at Mario and his allies as soon as they get close enough. But they also still have the same weakness, as Boomer can flip them over.

Trivia

 * Since Moon Clefts can be found near Downtown of Crag, it might imply that the Land of the Cragnons is located on the natural satellite (i.e. "moon") of an unknown planet.
