Name	Description	Courses		New
		First	Last
Goomba	Squat mushroom creatures that walk along the ground and are weak to all attacks. Direct contact damages Mario unless he stomps them on the head. Touching sleeping Goombas does not harm him, but this startles them awake. In some courses Goombas lack the space to move and instead sit on the ground, disgruntled. During the Wonder Effect in Sproings in the Twilight Forest, their bodies greatly extend to varying heights. In some other Wonder Effects, Mario is transformed into one. Goombas are the most common enemies.	Welcome to the Flower Kingdom!	The Final Test Wonder Gauntlet	—

Melon Piranha Plant	Piranha Plants that look like watermelons. They spit seeds that damage Mario, but they can be jumped on without taking damage. This allows Mario to cross large gaps, or ascend tall platforms. Yoshis can eat and spit the seeds back at them and other enemies. Melon Piranha Plants are otherwise defeated when stomped.	Countdown to Drop Down	The Final-Final Test Badge Marathon
Fire Piranha Plant	Piranha Plants that spit fireballs. They emerge from pipes and aim their heads towards Mario's position before firing. Some Fire Piranha Plants spit multiple fireballs at once.	Upshroom Downshroom	The Semifinal Test Piranha Plant Reprise	—

The red-shelled ones turn around when the reach the edge of platforms.	Scram, Skedaddlers!	The Final Test Wonder Gauntlet	—

Shova	Burly Koopas in helmets and large gloves. Shovas push objects in the environment and contact with one head on simply pushes back Mario. Touching it anywhere else is damaging to him.

Lakitu	Cloud-riding Koopas. They closely follow Mario and toss Spiny Eggs at him from the top of the screen. If a Lakitu is stomped, its cloud becomes available to ride.

Bulrush	Herding dinosaurs in tracksuits. Bulrushes idly remain still until Mario is near, at which point they snort and charge at him. They destroy Hard Blocks in their path and leap at the end of upward slopes. Charging Bulrushes do not turn around if Mario leaps over them, and they are briefly stunned when they collide with indestructible terrain. Bulrushes can be safely stood on like platforms, and a large stampeding herd materializes during certain Wonder Effects. Bulrushes otherwise appear on the savanna portion of the Pipe-Rock Plateau, grazing.	Bulrush Coming Through!	The Final Battle! Bowser's Rage Stage
Hoppo	Round-bodied hippopotamuses found on Pipe-Rock Plateau. Hoppos idly walk across the ground and unlike most enemies, they do not damage Mario on contact. Touching them instead causes them to roll along the ground. In most areas, they ultimately roll between gaps in the terrain and become wedged. They can be bounced on like trampolines to reach higher areas. In a Wonder Effect, they occur floating in space and function like bumpers.	Here Come the Hoppos	The Final Test Wonder Gauntlet
Wonder Koronporin	A giant Hoppo that appears during certain Wonder Effects. In Here Come the Hoppos, it is necessary to reach the Wonder Flower.	Here Come the Hoppos	The Final Test Wonder Gauntlet
Swirlypod	Snail enemies that adhere to surfaces, found crawling along floors, walls, and ceilings. Like Koopa Troopas, a stomp knocks them out of their shell and makes it a useable projectile.

When a Blewbird is defeated, another emerges from the ground to take its place. During Wonder Effects, Blewbirds blow bubbles that can be used as bouncy platforms.	Blewbird Roost	The Final Test Wonder Gauntlet
Outmaway	Masked snow creatures. Outmaways are often on top of elevated platforms, where they kick giant Ice Blocks that emerge from the ground before them.

Outmaway Valley	A Final Uncharted Area: Poison Ruins
Pokipede (Green)	Wiggler-like centipedes that swiftly move along tracks. Pokipedes punch as they move, clearing falling snow blocks.

When they collide with opposing terrain, they fasten themselves to it, positioned to launch back at Mario if he is within their sights. They are damaged like normal Bullet Bills, but they can also be lured into poison. There are rotating hexagonal objects in the ceiling that launch Seeker Bullet Bills like Bill Blasters.
