'''Uproots''' are enemies that can be controlled with [[Cappy]] in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. Their name is derived from a word referring to a plant being pulled from the ground, and their name also refers to their root-like legs. In their natural state, Uproots have flowerpots on their heads and have red eyes. They are shown to resemble onions when their flowerpots are knocked off. They can stretch their legs, which, according to the [[Bonneter biologist]], telescope outward, to reach high places. | |||
Uproots can be found in the [[Wooded Kingdom]], a secret [[lava]]-filled area in the [[Seaside Kingdom]], and the [[Darker Side]]. They spawn from [[Senobi Generate Point]]s. In order to break the flowerpots on their heads, [[Mario]] needs to [[Cap Throw|throw Cappy at them]], allowing him to [[capture|take control of the Uproots]]. They can be used to reach places Mario normally could not reach as well as raise certain platforms. They are also needed to defeat [[Torkdrift]] through smashing both blocks and the boss's core. | |||

- —Bonneter biologist, Super Mario Odyssey
Uproots are enemies that can be controlled with Cappy in Super Mario Odyssey. Their name is derived from a word referring to a plant being pulled from the ground, and their name also refers to their root-like legs. In their natural state, Uproots have flowerpots on their heads and have red eyes. They are shown to resemble onions when their flowerpots are knocked off. They can stretch their legs, which, according to the Bonneter biologist, telescope outward, to reach high places.
Uproots can be found in the Wooded Kingdom, a secret lava-filled area in the Seaside Kingdom, and the Darker Side. They spawn from Senobi Generate Points. In order to break the flowerpots on their heads, Mario needs to throw Cappy at them, allowing him to take control of the Uproots. They can be used to reach places Mario normally could not reach as well as raise certain platforms. They are also needed to defeat Torkdrift through smashing both blocks and the boss's core.
A concept design for Uproots depicted them as mushroom type enemies. More concepts for Uproots were partially based on Pokeys and Bramballs.[1]
In the Super Mario Mash-up in Minecraft, Striders are replaced by Uproots.
