MarioWiki:BJAODN/Enemies

Jokes about enemies! Yes, these things were on actual articles.

Trivia

 * The name is a pun on the word airbag.

Albatoss
Albatosses used to be normal residents of Subcon until the maniacal Wart seized power. The toad king ordered the red birds to be part of his military. Albatosses were trained to carry Bob-ombs and drop them on civilians who would otherwise make for the new dictator.

Artichoker
Most of the time, Artichokers remain stationary, appearing to be normal shrubs. This is, in fact, a clever survival mechanism that allows the Artichokers to prey on unsuspecting travelers. Since items can sometimes be found in shrubs, an unlucky adventurer may accidentally stumble across an Artichoker, instead of treasure. After falling for the deception, the adventurer will have to fight the plant monster in combat. Unfortunately for the traveler, Artichokers prove to be very tough opponents.

Arukaroten
An Arukaroten is a Chain-Chomp like creature that are inside Bowser but he kidnaps Princess Peach but Mario, Luigi and Bowser wanna fight and save Peach.

Paper Mario
They can dash at an amazing speed towards Mario.[...]

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
[...]They have lost their amazing speed.

"(It's a dangerously amazing speed.)"

Big Bob Omb
[...]Strangely, the cannonballs in Super Mario 64 looked just like him, only without any features except the body.[...]

Trivia

 * It's possible the Big Scorper is named after the Big Scorper from Frank Herbert's best selling novel Dune
 * Big Scorper is not based on the generic Real World creature of the same name, but on the larvae from the antlion family of insects.

(For context, the page was named "SandWorm" before being moved. This is what happen when you're not careful with Word search & replace.)

Blindfold Boo
As they cannot see where Yoshi is located, they trust in their auditive senses to perceive the Yoshi's location and then attack.

Trivia

 * The Bonecoaster is probably a dead snake (possibly even a dry snake).

Boo
[...]booes are scared of themselves when they look in a mirror.[...]

("...Isn't the plural boos?")

Trivia

 * The boos' ability to freeze when looked at and move when not is used by aliens called Weeping Angels in the British Sci-Fi show Doctor Who.

(On July 9th, 2012, the content of the deleted Wikipedia article on the rap group "Swag Team" was added to the Boo article. It was removed shortly after by the user who added it. Due to the large amount of broken coding and the article's length, it can not be displayed on BJAODN.)

Boo Guy
Presumably, Boo Guys are the spirits of deceased Shy Guys, although it is possible these ghosts are created independently of a creature’s death (as Boos themselves may not be the ghosts of the deceased, but simply an undead species capable of an unknown means of reproduction).

("who the f*** cares")

[...]

Boo Guys employed a variety of traps in the game, including maces. Individual Boo Guys operated a single mace attached to a long chain. When a Boo Guy spotted a Yoshi, the ghost would drop the mace from the ceiling, hoping to crush the dinosaur. However, the Yoshi would have to be directly under the mace for the attack to be effective, and the Boo Guys tended to simply drop their maces continuously, instead of dropping the weapon at the most opportune moment. Since the weapon was heavy, it would take some time for the Boo Guy to pull the ball up to attempt another attack, allowing the Yoshis to pass safely underneath the weapon. This was the only way to get past these weapons, as the chain itself would actually damage the heroic dinosaurs.

[...]

With fancy footwork, the dinosaurs could avoid the bomb, although at times this proved to be difficult.

("Breakdancing does require some practice, you see.")

[...]

After dropping the bomb, the unfortunate Boo Guy would eventually hang its head down in shame, while the other ghosts shook their heads in disappointment.

[...]

The Boo Guys reappeared in the game Yoshi's Island DS. Boo Guys remained relatively unchanged from their SMW2 versions. However, in this game, Boo Guys were allied with King Bowser, the grown-up Baby Bowser, who had traveled back in time to the Yoshi’s Island of the past in order to capture the Star Children and use their power to take over the world. As before, Boo Guys attacked members of the Yoshi clan to make the dinosaurs drop their babies, be it Baby Mario, Baby Peach, Baby Donkey Kong, Baby Wario, or Baby Bowser (who the Boo Guys coincidentally worked for just prior to the events of this game). Once dropped, the future Kamek’s Toadies would attempt to capture the crying Star Child and bring it before King Bowser. It is unknown if these Boo Guys traveled with Bowser from the future, or existed in the past and allied themselves with the Koopa king when he arrived in their time.

("who the f*** cares.")

Borboras
[...]If it spots the player,it blows the player.[...]

(Oh my god.)

Brobot L-Type
[...]Its HP amount is a reference to the Nintendo 64, since, as seen in Luigi's Diary in Paper Mario, he likes Nintendo 64s (at least at the time of Paper Mario), since he wonders excitedly if the Shy Guys have a Nintendo 64. [...]

Bugaboom

 * Bugaboom's eyes look strangely hypnotic, meaning that it may not have been the one who planned the Mandibug attack and just may have been hypnotized into assaulting Mario. Of course, this may also mean that Bugaboom is simply demented.


 * It then proceeds to attack Mario just like a regular Mandibug would except it is much bigger.


 * Glamdozer's boss music seems to be a remix of Bugaboom's theme. They also have similaraties, as both a bigger version of their species, and both need to be ground-pounded to be defeated, like their species.

Bully
Two Bullies appear in a screenshot on the Japanese website for Super Mario 3D World. In Super Mario 3D World, the Bullies have your paper of Super Mario 64 and are defeateds how in Super Mario 64 and with your voices of Super Mario 64.

("I didn't know there was paper in SM64. And that Bullies can be defeated with players' voices. ")

Ceiling Surprise
The Ceiling Surprise is a white ghost with a freaky smile that hides on the ceiling, and drops down to freak out Luigi when he's not looking at the game Luigi's Mansion.


 * "(How can you avoid looking at the game you're in?)"

Cheep-Cheep
("Spot the error")

("So is Pirate Cheep-Cheep a Pirate Goomba?")

Chuboomba
If it wheezes before tackling, there is a likelihood that some were DNA adequately checked could have been found to have significant corresponding ancestry, since not only the most ancient tracers should be taken into account, it could be such children were erroneously medicated for their racial composition, or their parents during a period of sexual purism, noticing the racial difference, used some methods to dull them and significantly reduce their IQ, so as to avoid their becoming obvious, and causing doubt in regard of matters of fidelity, or even as a reserve pretext for a mental health plea useful if their lifestyle was less than law-abiding,given that including in my case instant thought is doubted, which comes from the finest of warrior strains, from mediaeval battle, suicide by nutritional means is not impossible in later life and not entirely alien to their culture as they discovered personally their true identity and were denied access to it, it will hesitate before impact so the player must take notice for if it wheezes.

"(Love how this piece of vile, putrid sludge of analysis tries so hard to make itself look sophisticated and intellectual while cramming itself into one sentence.)"

Condor
Go to Klepto for more info.

("According to my long researches, Klepto is the only condor I found. ")

Chief Chilly
Out of all the moustached bosses from Super Mario 64 DS, Chief Chilly takes greatest pride about his moustache.

("I'm trying to remember how many moustached Bosses there were in SM64DS. I can only think of two." - )

Trivia

 * Culex, from the first RPG Mario, has a attack called "Dark Star". However it's possible that it doesn't has anything to do with "this" Dark Star.
 * Oddly enough, the Dark Star has more menacing eyes than Dark Star X.

"So red eyes are more menacing than blue eyes? How did I miss that?"

Dodo
[...]However, he unhealthily holds in his anger, which he releases by pecking golden statues of his boss. [...]

("This is a wiki about the Mario series, not a repository of health advices for fictional characters.")

Drool Hard
Drool Hards are relatives of Hanging Blow Hards but don't have the swing. [...]

Trivia

 * According to the New Super Mario Bros. series, Dry Bones never walk off into pits or lava. This suggests that Dry Bones are no ordinary undead Koopa Troopas, they are undead Red Koopa Troopas, since these enemies never walk off cliffs or into pits, either. It may also be that these Koopa Troopas decided to be more careful for now on, after whatever decision they made before they died.

("Or maybe it is a programmation error. Who knows? ")

Fire Snake
[...]it begins to chase him by bouncing and try to touch him with its flaming body.

(That sounds wrong in so many ways.)

Appearance
Giga Lakitu is an overweight Lakitu that has a purple shell and rides on a purple cloud. He has a yellow crown (which may indicate he's a king) and wears a pair of glasses along with a red and white ruff around his neck. DO NOT under estimate this lakitu to much or it will be the end of that life (note: do not over estimate him either).

Goomba
[...]No one ever knew but the goomba's where hiding a secret identity. You may know and love these mushrooms as goombas but they are really called Jimmy!!! Jimmy is a common name for a retard but if you have ever [played mario superstar baseball, jimmy runs super fast and is not that smart for wearing two shoes on one foot. So that is how he got the name jimmy.Now,you all must think that Jimmys live in the Mushroom Kingdom but that is so fake!!Jimmys are very poor and live in boxes on the streets on Mushroom Kingdom.They are drug-atics and they sell drugs in their boxes.Well,now i hope you know the real story of the goombas(Jimmy)[...] Goombas resemble mushrooms very closely. It is important that when playing Super Mario that a Goomba is not mistaken for a mushroom. Goombas are very hard to destroy, however, they appear to be small and weak looking.

Goombule
When a Goombule begins its attacks, it there is a likelihood that some were DNA adequately checked could have been found to have significant corresponding ancestry, since not only the most ancient tracers should be taken into account, it could be such children were erroneously medicated for their racial composition, or their parents during a period of sexual purism, noticing the racial difference, used some methods to dull them and significantly reduce their IQ, so as to avoid their becoming obvious, and causing doubt in regard of matters of fidelity, or even as a reserve pretext for a mental health plea useful if their lifestyle was less than law-abiding,given that including in my case instant thought is doubted, which comes from the finest of warrior strains, from mediaeval battle, suicide by nutritional means is not impossible in later life and not entirely alien to their culture as they discovered personally their true identity and were denied access to it, walks directly to the brother it will use its charge attack against, or it pauses in the center of the battlefield and leans forward or backwards, if it is using its roll attack.

Hot Roderick

 * Hot Roderick is a resemblance on Elmo, a character of Sesame Street.

<-(....yep, I TOTALLY see the similarities to Elmo.)

Hyper Spiky Goomba
A Hyper Spiky Goomba is a Hyper Goomba with a spike on its head. It has extremely powerful attacks, and it itself is not easy to take down, either, with that nasty spike on its head. Ordinarily, their attack power is three, but when Charged, watch out for an incredible nine attack point attack. Mario needs to really stay on his toes with this Goomba.

Invisighoul
[...] It is possible that the chairs and flowerpots that seem to move on their own in various levels could be moved by these; however, this cannot be proved, as there are no other mirrors in the game.

They appear in 2-4 and 5-3. In 5-3 though, none of them attack the player.

Trivia

 * Most think Kackle is the 5th scariest thing in a Nintendo game.

Klamber
Klamber 50% spider 50% crab 100% annoying.

("And this is 150% nonsense. ")

Klepto
(On March 30th 2008, the content on the Klepto page was replaced with a cut & paste of the Wikipedia article about Infocom, a well-known publisher of Interactive fictions games. The vandalism was reverted nine hours after it was made, but the vandal soon struck back and replaced the content with that of another Wikipedia page, this time the article about the Star Wars character Jango Fett (a reference to Klepto's Japanese name). Because of the sheer length as well as the amount of broken coding involved, those revisions aren't directly archived on BJAODN.)

King Boo
[...]Apparently wearing a small crown is enough to make you king, but ones from Burger King aren't enough to make your girlfriend call you her majesty. I suppose that's another story.[...]

("Mine does...")

King Zing
In the Game Boy Advance remake of Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest, King Zing is hardly changed. The only difference is that he gives up his own speed for the pace of his stingers moving in all directions.

Kritter
Not all Kremlings are bad, though; some, such as K. Lumsy and the Kritter goalies of Mario Smash Football seem to be decent individuals[...]

"(Unless you deem somebody roundhouse-kicking a soccer player halfway across the field as a decent individual.)" -

Koopaling
[...] How he treats them is debatable as he has never had any intercourse with them besides the credits of Super Mario World. [...]

("Sickest Typo I ever saw." - )

("Actually, this is misleading, but correct. The first definition of intercourse in the third edition of the Collins English Dictionary is "communication or exchange between individuals; mutual dealings." Still, don't do this." —.)

Koopa Troop
[...]According to Kammy Koopa in Paper Mario, the motive for the clan is to have revenge against all who have treated Koopas poorly. However, most of their clear goals some based entirely on Bowser's own interest.[...]

[...]The Koopa Troop (Japanese クッパ軍団 Kuppa gundan "Bowser Corps"), named as such in Super Mario RPG; [...] is a militaristic dictatorship led by Bowser, King of the Koopas.

(The fine example of imposing a little too much darkness in what is an otherwise fantasy, gleeful series aimed at all ages. -BLOF)

[...]The Koopa Troop is unstoppable. Bowser has an unlimited supply of soldiers; the Koopa Troop also has an massive army such as (with tanks), a maritime navy (with battleships), an air force (with airships), and a space fleet with massive spacecrafts as seen in the Super Mario Galaxy series. Despite having such a huge military, the Koopa Troop is continuously defeated by the legendary Mario Brothers, the heroes of the Mushroom Universe, as well as those who assist the Mario Bros. on their missions to protect the Mushroom Universe (such as Toads).[...]

(How can you be defeated if you're unstoppable!? -Idiot user is now officially confused) (By the way, I would like to point out the absurd nature of this paragraph in general. Unlimited supply of soldiers? In a video game? Maritime navy? Air force? Space fleet? I don't see any of that. I see creatures just trying to walk into Mario. -BLOF)

All media

 * Kidnapping and marrying Princess Peach.

("They are not all going to marry Peach. That way, Peach would have many hubbies." - ")

("Oh, we gotta add polygamy to affiliations of the Koopa Troop!" - )

Biology
The Koopa Troopas' most known caracterist is their shells, that resmbles turtles' shells (this fact has formed a rumor that Koopa Troopas are turtles). Another famous caracterist is their shell's protection that can be knocked, attacking other enemies (as seen in many platform games).

Physical Appearance
Koopa Troopas' shells comes in four colors: green, red, yellow and blue. The most known are the green and red ones, specially, the green ones.

All Koopa Troopas have a gold-yellow skin and a big snout. They also have light brown joints at their chests and abdomen (as seen in Bowser), however, this part of their body are covered with their shells.

Koopa Troopas also use shoes of the same color of their shells.

Speech
In the course of the Mario series, Koopa Troopas are seen to have English as their native language. In the games that character's voices aren't shown speaking phrases, Koopa Troopas make owl-like sounds, having English just legenged. This can be because Koopa Troopas have their own language, that Mario (or other characters) can understand. In Paper Mario series, all Koopa Troopas knows only speak English. Also having Koopa Troopas partners speaking this same language, through speaking bubbles.

Gender
Koopa Troopas have their gender differences, being male or female. An exemple is a Mario Party 5 mini-game called Flower Shower. This mini-game presents the marriage of two Koopa Troopas (one using a bow tie [a common man garment] and other using a bow [a common woman garment]).

Reproduction
Are not known if the Koopa Troopas' reproduction is sexually or asexually, however, are known that they born from eggs, just like Yoshis.

Trivia

 * Some one thinks Kroc is the 8th scariest thing in a Nintendo game. He also thinks Kroc uses King K Rool's vocals.

Lord Fredrik
(Fredrik, the refrigerator guy)

(They've been teaching me wrong the entire time...I think I need to reexamine all those four years I've invested on those French classes.)

Monstar
Also notable about the battle is the fact that Monstar was invulnerable to Star Spirit attacks and the Shooting Star item, perhaps because stars can't hurt other stars.

("Yet a Star Beam can destroy Bowser's shield powered by a Star Rod.")

Monchee


("Mario: Help me! There is an hord Poison Mushrooms down there! ")

Mooke
mooke is a kind if goomba that does not appear in any game because they are stupid and dumb. they were supposed to appear in mario & luigi partners in time but their roles were occupied by the shroobs, so thats why they dont appear in any game

 * Nana's name suggests that she is a grandmother, possibly to Henry and Orville, as she owns the key to their room.

Naval Piranha
After being hit with enough eggs, Naval Piranha succumbs to the abuse and is defeated.

("I've succumbed to the inability to stop laughing at that.")

Paper Mario: Sticker Star
If they are jumped on/hammered at the wrong time, they will poof and leave a log (also known as a decoy) behind, meaning the attack will be a miss, then run back into battle while falling from the top screen having their arms up high and landing safely with style.

(It's not falling, it's landing with style.)

Nosedozer
Nosedozers are simply damaging Bandineros. See Bandinero.

("On the left is a Bandinero. On the right is a Nosedozer.")

Trivia

 * In Yoshi's Story, Pak E. Derm's path blocking is similar to that of Gandalf from Lord of the Rings.

("I know of an upcoming Pirate Gombaaa. And maybe a Pirate Goombaaaa. ")

Pirate Guy
Pirate Guys are basically pirate Shy Guys.

Appearances
Pitchforks have only appeared in Wario Land: Shake It!. One of the levels on Wario Land: Shake It! with Pitchforks in them was World 3, Scene 1 (see External Links section; Gameplay Video).

Types of Enemies
Pitchforks are not the bosses of levels. They are just normal enemies.

Functions
Pitchforks hang mostly on ceilings (because of their fork), and if Wario is under them, they wrench themselves out the ceiling and fall to the ground. If they see Wario when on the ground, they run toward Wario, trying to stab him with their fork. However, if Wario dodges them, they'll hit a wall, leaving them stuck. Wario can then pick them up and throw them.

Characteristics
Pitchforks are Bandineros with a fork cap on their head from Wario Land: Shake It!. Not only cyan Pitchforks are in Wario Land: Shake It!: also lila-pink Pitchforks exists. These are a combination of a yellow Bandinero and a cyan Pitchfork, because they will jump.

Threat
As seen on the image identifying a Pitchfork on this article, their threat is 2/3.

Similar Enemies
Some similar enemies to a Pitchfork include other kinds of Bandineros, Goombas, Paragoombas, Electrogoombas, and.

The R.O.B. Squad
These are enemies found in the Subspace Emissary also see Super Smash Bros. Brawl. The escort the [[Ancient Minister brings with him is a R.O.B squad?! There are some that fire beams and others that fire missiles.

("We really needed that mental image.")

Sammer Guy

[...]Torpedo Teds have very smiling grins on their faces, which means that their arms are more farther away from the face.[...]

Super Mario World
Torpedo Teds first appeared in Super Mario World and resided in Soda Lake. Mario and Yoshi encountered Torpedo Teds during their adventures in Dinosaur Land. Torpedo Teds moved fairly fast and could be hard to avoid due to the narrow pathways within Soda Lake. '''This enemy can be defeated with a star, because this sprite was not progammed for invincibility glitch because: They give many lives when "bounce" in the player.

Yux (species)
"(It's a lot easier to write "destroy" than "abolish" and "annhilate", and "respawn" than "reproduce".)"
 * When a Mini-Yux is in the presence of its greater being, an unbreakable shield will be created around the main Yux unit; the only way to abolish this shield is to destroy all of Mini-Yux in the way.
 * Mini-Yux are a variety of Yux that have been created to serve and protect their greater being.
 * Mini-Z-Yux are small, cone shaped offspring of the Z-Yux. The Mini-Z-Yux have an identical mission to that of a regular Yux: They must shield the Z-Yux from harm as it attacks opponents. One Mini-Z-Yux will reproduce per turn. As with the Mini-Yux, the player must eradicate the Mini-Z-Yux in order to break down the barrier protecting the Z-Yux.
 * Mini-X-Yux are the protectors of the X-Yux. Mini-X-Yux are small, blue cone shaped creatures, of which, two are spawned to protect its greater being per turn.
 * Thus, to attack Sir Grodus in a no-holds-barred fashion, one must annihilate all Grodus Xs.
