(→Super Mario Bros. 2: The reason IS known, it's due to how it's between two 16x16 tiles, making it moving to attack impractical given how complex the assembly of that boss already was by NES standards.) |

In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', Tryclyde acts as the guardian of [[World 2 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 2]] and [[World 6 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 6]]. | In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', Tryclyde acts as the guardian of [[World 2 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 2]] and [[World 6 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 6]]. Upon sighting the player, he shoots [[fireball]]s at them. In order to injure Tryclyde, the player needs to throw three [[Mushroom Block]]s at him, which are resistant to Tryclyde's fire breath. After being hit by three Mushroom Blocks, Tryclyde is defeated. In this incarnation, he is red with black stripes or wrinkles. Only the front two heads actually move and spit fire; the back one stays still and only reacts to getting hit. | ||
While Tryclyde reprises his role in the version of ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' included in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'', he is only the boss of World 2 in the ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'' port, having been replaced by [[Mouser]] as boss of World 6. His color changes in the remakes; in ''All-Stars'', he is turquoise and orange, and a lighter shade of turquoise in ''Advance''. He was voiced by Charles Martinet in the latter game, owing to the addition of voice acting to the characters. | While Tryclyde reprises his role in the version of ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' included in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'', he is only the boss of World 2 in the ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'' port, having been replaced by [[Mouser]] as boss of World 6.
