They resemble [[Mega Mole]]s ([[Monty Mole]]s in the remake), are dressed as presenters, and give presents to Mario and Luigi, such as items, clothing, or badges. Asking them again after getting the item will result in them telling the player that they are greedy, and that they cannot receive any more items. In the original game, Presenters are yellow in color, have the shades, hair, and mouths of Mega Moles, and wear red bow ties; in the remake, they simply look like Monty Moles, but still have the bow ties.

Mole, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

Moles[1][2] are friendly Monty Moles featured in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and its 3DS remake. They give presents to Mario and Luigi, such as items, clothing, or badges. Asking them again after getting the item will result in them telling the player that they are greedy, and that they cannot receive any more items. In the original game, moles are yellow in color, have the shades, hair, and mouths of Mega Moles, and wear red bow ties; in the remake, they simply look like Monty Moles, but still have the bow ties. There are 11 moles in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and 12 in its remake.

Moles are present in Hoohoo Mountain, Beanbean Fields, Oho Oasis, Joke's End and Bowser's Castle.
