'''Guerrillas''' are [[Kong]]-like enemies found in the [[Forest Maze]] in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. Their name is a pun on "gorilla" and "[[wikipedia:Guerrilla warfare|guerrilla warfare]]". Aside from their chains and shackles, they are very similar in appearance to [[Donkey Kong]], as referenced by their [[Psychopath]]. They also have a stronger near-identical counterpart, the [[Chained Kong]].

Guerrillas are the strongest enemies in the Forest Maze, having powerful physical attacks at their disposal. Like most powerful enemies in the game (i.e. [[Reacher]] or [[Mastadoom]]), Guerrillas appear rarely, with only one appearing per battle, and never appearing on the overworld.
