Biddybud

Biddybuds are common enemies appearing in Super Mario 3D Land, Super Mario 3D World, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, and Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam. They resemble multicolored ladybugs and act like regular Goombas, though they do not chase Mario and Luigi when they are in sight, making their behavior more comparable to Goombas from the 2D games.

Super Mario 3D Land
Biddybuds first appear in World 1-3. They appear in five different colors: red, blue, green, yellow, and pink. They mainly appear in groups of two to five and walk in a set pattern, often circular. Mario can defeat them with any type of attack. They also have a sub-species called Para-Biddybuds, which have wings and fly, similar to a Paragoomba. They are a common enemy, but not as common as Goombas are.

Super Mario 3D World
Biddybuds reappear in Super Mario 3D World. They look and behave exactly like they do in Super Mario 3D Land, though they are less common than they were originally. They now appear in larger groups than in Super Mario 3D Land. When they are onscreen, they make sounds similar to a horn.

Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
While Biddybuds themselves do not appear in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, a kart called the Biddybuggy is based on their flying counterparts.

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker
Biddybuds reappear as enemies in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, where they act the same as they did in previous games.

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam
Biddybuds reappear in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam as enemies. They appear in Sunbeam Plains and later Mount Brrr. They always battle in stacks. Biddybuds can attack by walking into one of the Mario Bros. in a straight line, or they can attack by walking in a stack, occasionally stumbling, causing them to slow down briefly. If they are jumped on while walking in a stack, every Biddybud in the stack will take damage. If the player uses Dropchopper or Cannonball Chuck, the entire stack of Biddybuds will all take damage.

Mario Tennis Aces
Biddybuds reappear in Mario Tennis Aces as nonplayable characters in the game's Adventure Mode, as spectators in the Piranha Plant Forest court.
