The octopus will attack Mario by swimming around releasing its offspring. The little ones slowly home in on Mario and pass him by, while the parent swims left and right across the arena. In order to defeat the octopus, Mario has to hit its head three times, which can be difficult, as the entire battle with the octopus takes place underwater. Alternatively, [[Fire Mario]] can defeat the octopus with six [[fireball]]s. The smaller octopodes cannot be harmed, and are the most dangerous threat in the battle. | The octopus will attack [[Mario]] by swimming around releasing its offspring.
