"It makes me so mad! We build your houses, your castles. We pave your roads, and you still walk all over us. Do you ever say thank you? No! Well, you're not going to wipe your feet on me! I think I'll crush you just for fun! Do you have a problem with that? Just try to pound me, wimp! Ha!" (before battle) -Whomp King
The Whomp King debuts in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. When he is confronted on top of [[Whomp's Fortress]] in ''Super Mario 64'', he makes a short speech, then engages Mario in battle. Like most Whomps, he attacks by falling face-first in an attempt to crush the player. While he is flat on the ground, the player must [[Ground Pound|ground-pound]] his back three times to defeat him, causing him to release a [[Power Star]]. A glitch makes it possible to jump and time a Ground Pound in midair so that the Whomp King's attack goes harmlessly through Mario, who will then land on his back. For some reason, if the player wall kicks into the Whomp King and jumps away from him before the fight, Whomp King talks to the player and initiate the fight as soon as they land. However, the battle ends seconds later, since Mario is not allowed to move very far from a boss he is fighting with.
