[[File:Protobatter_Sizes.png|frame|left|The three size variations of Protobatter]]
'''Protobatter'''s are enemies found inside the [[Pump Works]] of [[Bowser's body]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]''. A more powerful variation called [[Pwallop]]s appear in the [[Energy Hold]].
A '''Protobatter''' is a round creature that holds a club. It is found inside the [[Pump Works]] of [[Bowser's body]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]''.
==Design==
 
Protobatters have spherical, cream-colored bodies with a black "o"-shaped mouth, a pair of simplistic arms, brown, shoe-like feet, and raised, black eyes. They wield black clubs with white spikes.
It grows up to two to three times larger whenever [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] attack it. It attacks by spitting a piece of batter and slamming it with its club at the bros. The direction it holds its club is to indicate which one of the Bros. is being attacked. This attack can be countered with the [[hammer]]. It may miss the swing up to two times in an attempt to lower the player's guard. Protobatters also have stronger faster cousins called [[Pwallop]]s that appear in the [[Energy Hold]].
==Battle==
Protobatters attack by spitting out a piece of batter and slamming it with its club at the Mario Bros. The direction it holds its club indicates which one of the Bros. will be attacked, and it may miss the swing up to two times in an attempt to lower the player's guard. This attack can be countered with the [[hammer]]. Protobatters will also grow up to two to three times larger whenever [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] attack them.
