+'''Slurples'''<ref>Browne, Catherine. 2010. ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 29.</ref> are small parasitic creatures in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Slurples have light-blue skin, big eyes, funnel-like mouths, and large, [[Octoomba]]-like suction cups on their undersides. They move by bouncing and attack by latching on to [[Mario]] (or [[Luigi]]) and draining [[Health Meter|health]] from him, like [[Kamikami]]. In addition to damage, Mario's movement speed is slowed while a Slurple is attached to him. Slurples can be defeated with a [[spin]] or a flung [[Star Bit]]. If hit with a Star Bit, they will yield three additional Star Bits, while they will yield only one if spun. They can also be defeated by obstacles such as [[boulder]]s.
-'''Swoopin' Poinks''' are health-sucking space leeches in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. They seem to look very similar to [[Swoopin' Stu]]s and/or [[Poink]]s. Swoopin' Poinks have light blue skin, big eyes, and snouts. They move by bouncing and will attack by latching onto [[Mario]] and sucking health from him. In addition to damage Mario's movement speed is slowed while a swoopin' poink is attached to him. Swoopin' Poinks are similar to the [[Fuzzys]] in the Paper Mario series.
+An [[list of Super Mario Galaxy pre-release and unused content|unused]] purple variant of Slurple is located in the files of ''Super Mario Galaxy'', under the name '''KariKari'''.<ref>TCRF. [[tcrf:Super Mario Galaxy/Unused Models#KariKari|Super Mario Galaxy/Unused Models § KariKari]]. ''The Cutting Room Floor''. Retrieved February 20, 2020.</ref> Its name resembles [[Karikari]], an enemy from ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'', which the developers previously worked on.
