::Parabuzzy was also treated as "another one of those infamous merge proposals" just a few short years ago, but then ''Super Mario Maker'' happened and now ''Super Mario Maker 2'' outright calls them Para-Beetles, so localization isn't nearly as constant as you want to make it out to be. That said, why not alternatively move the Boss Telesas from Big Boo to this article? Also, I want to point out that we have a [[Big Boo (boss)|Big Boo boss]] article for ''Super Mario World''. If this merges, so should that.

:::Additionally, if a "distinct character" is the only example of a particular subject in a game (especially a single game), then it's that game's interpretation of said subject. Sort of like how there's only one large Chain Chomp/Unagi/Dorrie/Klepto/Manta Ray/Wiggler in SM64, yet they are considered part of their respective species article.

Toad, Yoshi, and Kamek at least appear alongside "unnamed generic" members of the species.
