'''Jellyfish''' are water-dwelling, usually electrically charged creatures that made several appearances as enemies in ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]''-related media. Their appearance is slightly distinct in almost every game they appear in, but always retain the usual traits of real life {{wp|jellyfish}}, such as tentacles and globe-shaped bells. Jellyfish also serve as basis for other creatures found in the ''Mario'' games, including [[Jelectro]]s from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and [[Jellybeam]]s from ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''.

Jellyfish make a minor appearance in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', where Nokis are seen riding them in the episode [[The Red Coin Fish]]. They are harmless, as bumping into them does not hurt Mario.

In ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' and its Nintendo Switch [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|port]], jellyfish<ref>von Esmarch, Nick, and Cory van Grier. ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' PRIMA Official Game Guide, page 13.</ref> appear as common enemies in the water levels of [[Sea Breeze Cove]]. Their motion path may vary from individual to individual; some simply swim in a straight line up and down, while other revolve around a certain spot. Jellyfish hesitate before moving in a set direction. If the Kongs touch one, they get electrocuted and lose one life from their health meter. Jellyfish are almost invulnerable; however, they turn into an item if the Kongs perform a [[Kong POW]] nearby. These enemies glow softly and appear distinguishable in detail even in the dark, as seen in [[Amiss Abyss]], a level which marks their first encounter with the Kongs in the game.

Their movement path may vary from individual to individual; some simply swim in a straight line up and down, while other revolve around a certain spot. Jellyfish charge up some momentum before moving in a set direction. Like the [[Jelly Fish]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'', they are electrically charged and can damage the [[Kong]]s on contact. They can only be defeated with a nearby [[Kong POW]]. These enemies glow softly and are clearly visible in the dark, as seen in [[Amiss Abyss]], a level which marks their first encounter with the Kongs in the game.
