Gold Polterpups

Iv noticed in some of the trailers that several Polterpups are coloured Gold. These are either Polterpups carring a stolen object or an alternate form caring bonus treasure. I just thought id put it out there. - Cubeguy

About the Gold Polterpup, on the recent multiplayer footage one is shown. It is bigger and has 100 HP. Should we mention this in the article? I am Ness! Protecting Eagleland one bat swing at a time! (talk)

Sure, if it's relevant.

I WOULD add it if I knew how to make references... I am Ness! Protecting Eagleland one bat swing at a time! (talk)

Place a link to the page on this page if you can. - Cubeguy

We should place this as an alternate or special form as you said its larger and has double health but also is wearing a blue collar. So it should only be placed as a special ghost for the ScareScraper until its confirmed for singleplayer. - Cubeguy

Polterpups turn golden when you're vacuuming them up... so that may be it. Peanutjon (talk) 19:05, 15 April 2013 (EDT)

Name?

What is the dogs name? Is it chaser? Or simply Polterpup?

I think it's just Polterpup. I don't think these even have a name. Icon showing how many lives Mario has left. From Super Mario 64 DS. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 23:26, 9 April 2013 (EDT)
Its name in the vault is ?????, it really doesnt have one besides that. It may be due for use later on in other games, or its up to the player to decide, it's a neat thing they added that gets you thinking. - Cubeguy2ver.pngCubeguy(talk)

Rewriting

So originally Polterpup was based off of the character's appearances. So i changed it. But I don't think I did very well so can someone else help too? Peanutjon (talk) 16:35, 23 April 2013 (EDT)

Merge to Polterpup and/or split Big Polterpup

As a subject, this really doesn't have a lot going for it distinct from the "main" one. They have blue collars, only appear in a side-mode, and otherwise act exactly the same. They seem more a simple counterpart to the plot-relevant one created for said side-mode rather than a distinct subject. They have different vault entries, but so do the boss ghost retextures from the same mode we don't split.

That being said, Big Polterpup can be split. It has its own name, a different size, and slightly different behavior, so it'd match how we treat other officially split "big" enemies.

Do both

  1. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) - Per
  2. Tails777 (talk) Per proposal.

Only merge to the character article

Only split Big Polterpup

  1. Hewer (talk) The article could probably do with a bit of a rewrite, but I think that a split like this is justifiable if the character and species both appear in the same game with a distinction between them (the blue collars and being enemies), like how we handle Big Boo and Big Boo (boss).
