Spiny: Difference between revisions

This is the only game in which Spinies are nearly impossible to defeat. Even the otherwise impervious [[Green Shell|Green Shell]] will break if used against a Spiny, as though Mario ran into a wall, and a well-timed [[punch]] will only knock them back a bit. In Rainbow Ride, Mario can punch them repeatedly until they fall off the side. However, doing so will not produce any reward, as they will simply fall into a bottomless area. In the remake, ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', Spinies can also be defeated by Yoshi, who can eat them and turn them into [[Yoshi Egg]]s. Shooting the Yoshi Egg made from a Spiny yields one yellow coin. Eating one and spitting one out, however, will simply revert it into a Spiny Egg temporarily. They can also be defeated in Goomboss Battle by luring them into the poison gas.
