A '''Big Urchin''' is a colossal species of [[Urchin]] with puffed cheeks that first appears in the game ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''.
==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
[[File:NSMBW World 4-3 Screenshot.png|200px|thumb|left|A Big Urchin looking at Mario along with a regular Urchin]]
Big Urchins only appear in [[World 4 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 4]], and just like regular Urchins, they will float up and down, trying to poke [[Mario]] and the others. However, unlike regular Urchins, they are almost invincible, only vulnerable to a [[Super Star|Star]]. Also unlike regular Urchins, their pupils follow Mario's movements. They mostly appear alongside regular Urchins.

====''New Super Mario Bros. U'' / ''New Super Luigi U'' / ''New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe''====
[[File:NSMBU Urchin Screenshot.jpg|thumb|A Big Urchin underneath a regular Urchin]]
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', they appear in two of the [[Sparkling Waters]] levels, [[Tropical Refresher]] and [[Urchin Shoals]], retaining their behavior from ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''.

Big Urchins return in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'' in [[Urchin Reef Romp]] and [[Dragoneel Depths]]. In this game, they can be defeated by [[Dragoneel]]s.

===''Mario Golf: World Tour''===
[[File:SparklingWaters6.jpg|thumb|left|Big Urchins in ''Mario Golf: World Tour'']]
Big Urchins appear in ''[[Mario Golf: World Tour]]'' on the [[Cheep Cheep Lagoon (golf course)|Cheep Cheep Lagoon]] course, where they serve as obstacles for the golfers. They are also seen as background characters and tee markers on the [[Sparkling Waters (golf course)|Sparkling Waters]] course.

===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
[[File:SSB4 WiiU NSMBU World6.jpg|thumb|A Big Urchin in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'']]
Big Urchins appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' as one of the stage hazards for the [[Mushroom Kingdom U]] stage. They appear on top of some [[Water Geyser]]s and damage any players that touch them. A [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] of a Big Urchin appears in the game too.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', a Big Urchin appears as a shield-type, primary [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]], which makes the user weak to electric attacks when equipped. Its artwork is taken from its trophy render in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', which itself is derived from its appearance in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' series.

===''Mario Party 10''===
[[File:Fruit of the Doom.png|thumb|left|A Big Urchin in ''Mario Party 10'']]
Big Urchins reappear in ''[[Mario Party 10]]'' in the minigame [[Fruit of the Doom]]. Here, they look like and act similarly to normal Urchins, falling from the waterfall along with the fruit that is required to be collected. However, they move more slowly than normal Urchins and take up more space. Touching them will subtract three points.

===''Paper Mario: Color Splash''===
[[File:PMCS Cobalt Base Big Urchin.png|thumb|A Big Urchin, ready to pop Mario's bubble during ''Snifit or Whiffit'']]
A Big Urchin appears in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'' in the ''[[Snifit or Whiffit#Paper Mario: Color Splash|Snifit or Whiffit: Seabed Edition]]'' quiz show. If Mario fails a challenge, a Big Urchin will appear. If Mario fails four challenges in total, it will pop the bubble Mario is in and ultimately result in a [[Game Over]]. In the bonus round, the Big Urchin pops the bubble after failing one challenge. The Big Urchin will also pop the bubble if the player refuses to take part in the game show.

|align=left|''Many fancy restaurants serve sea urchins as a delicacy, but they're more of an obstacle in Mario's world. And the friendly looking Big Urchins have the sharpest spikes. They're also, you know, huge. They probably have to be careful not to poke each other while they wait for Mario.''
|align=left|''While any deep-sea diver would be glad to come across a sea urchin, for Mario, giant ones like this are a massive nuisance. Their large eyes may make them kind of adorable to look at, but that doesn't make their spikes any less spiky. Don't get too close unless you fancy being turned into a shish kebab!''
