Wii|the sequel]] to ''New Super Mario Bros.'' just as they did in the first game. They can be defeated while Mario is under the effects of a Star, or by using a Shell. However, they're not affected by fireballs, nor can they be frozen by ice balls. | ||
Wigglers only appear in World 5-2, and the game also introduces a bigger variety known as [[Big Wiggler]]s; these are very useful for crossing over the poisonous water. | Wigglers only appear in World 5-2, and the game also introduces a bigger variety known as [[Big Wiggler]]s; these are very useful for crossing over the poisonous water. | ||

Wigglers appear as a common enemy in the [[Forest Maze]] in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. They crawl in and out of tree stumps during this area. Jumping on them in the overworld releases [[Coin]]s and causes them to move faster, often releasing a [[Frog Coin]] if stomped enough times in a row. | Wigglers appear as a common enemy in the [[Forest Maze]] in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''.

Jumping on them in the overworld releases [[Coin]]s and causes them to move faster, often releasing a [[Frog Coin]] if stomped enough times in a row. Additionally, some Wigglers can be found sleeping in the Forest Maze's caves; jumping (outside of battle) on some of these undefeatable Wigglers angers them, making them launch Mario up out of the caves. Finally, Wigglers are notable for having six feet rather than eight in ''Super Mario RPG'', while their artwork for that game depicts them with the traditional number of eight; even more confusingly, [[Dr. Topper]] asks a "How many feet do Wigglers have?" question in [[Bowser's Keep]] that includes answers such as "six" and "eight", and the correct one is the non-traditional six. | ||

Wiggler shares good chemistry with [[Blooper]], [[King Boo]], and [[Petey Piranha]], possibly because they all appear as bosses in ''Super Mario Sunshine''. | Wiggler shares good chemistry with [[Blooper]], [[King Boo]], and [[Petey Piranha]], possibly because they all appear as bosses in ''Super Mario Sunshine''. | ||
Wiggler is a team player for [[Yoshi]]'s team, the [[Yoshi Eggs]]. Wiggler is shown to be pretty strong in this game, not only with an above average batting and running rating, but also with his close plays, in which he turns red if successful and smashes into the baseman. | Wiggler is a team player for [[Yoshi]]'s team, the [[Yoshi Eggs]].

Of course, his pitching and fielding skills are rather weak. He has the same look as in ''Mario Power Tennis'' so that he can hold the baseball bat. | ||

Wigglers have made a few varied appearances, however. Wigglers in the ''[[Super Mario World (television series)|Super Mario World]]'' cartoon are shown to be completely red, have sharp teeth, and be more hostile than the ones in the game. The Wiggler in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' is golden-colored and lacks spots, although its appearance in [[Super Mario 64 DS|the remake]] has been revamped to resemble the more common depiction of Wigglers. In ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', the Wiggler is also different from the usual ones, being green and much larger than Mario. Finally, some Wigglers have arms to allow them play baseball, tennis, and even boxing; these Wigglers wear gloves rather than shoes. | Wigglers have made a few varied appearances, however.

Wigglers are usually shown to have a calm and gentle disposition, but when threatened or attacked, they become angry and chase after their foes. The ''[[Mario Party DS]]'' badge for Wiggler additionally describes them as "easily vexed". | Wigglers are usually shown to have a calm and gentle disposition, but when threatened or attacked, they become angry and chase after their foes. The ''[[Mario Party DS]]'' badge for Wiggler additionally describes them as "easily vexed". Unlike other Mario enemies, Wigglers are not depicted as hostile toward Mario and his allies, making it unclear with their relationship with the Koopa Troop. Furthermore, a number of Wigglers have been allies, and in cases including in ''[[Mario Party DS]]'' and ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'', they have requested Mario and his friends to help. | ||
In some games, it shows that Wigglers have a fond talent for gardening and planting vegetables, even to the point of having a family farm grow plants for generations. One instance is in ''Mario Party DS'', where a Wiggler tends a garden that is attacked by a Piranha Plant. In ''[[Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', one even uses this talent in battle with Bowser. Like Luigi, Wigglers can be upset if someone bullies them or ridicules their love for vegetables or gardening, as shown in ''[[Mario and Luigi: Dream Team]]'', when Wiggly chased off [[Popple]] when he called Wiggly's intentions for making a flower garden stupid. | In some games, it shows that Wigglers have a fond talent for gardening and planting vegetables, even to the point of having a family farm grow plants for generations.
