'''Bristles''' are spiked monsters made of rock and are found in the game ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' | '''Bristles''' are spiked monsters made of rock and are found in the game ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. Similar to [[Cleft]]s, Bristles have spiked tops, high defense, an immunity to fire attacks, and can be flipped over by an earthquake or an explosion. Unlike Clefts, Bristles do not lose their top-spiked defense when flipped and are also immune to close-range attacks like [[Gulp]] and [[Mario]]'s [[Hammer]], as their large spears pop out to protect against approachers. Bristles won't pop out their spears if paralyzed (i.e. [[asleep]], [[frozen]], or [[immobilized]]), but they are still immune to direct contact moves such as [[Ms. Mowz]]'s [[Kiss Thief]] like with [[Pokey]]s. | ||
Despite their copious defenses, Bristles have very low HP and are easily taken out with items (e.g. [[POW Block]], [[Earth Quake]], [[Ice Storm]]), [[Superguard]]s, or Special Moves (e.g. [[Earth Tremor]]). Mario is also capable of simply hammering them should he have the [[Spike Shield]] [[badge]] equipped, though without attack-increasing badges, [[Piercing Blow]], or the [[Ultra Hammer]], it will do no damage. | Despite their copious defenses, Bristles have very low HP and are easily taken out with items (e.g. [[POW Block]], [[Earth Quake]], [[Ice Storm]]), [[Superguard]]s, or Special Moves (e.g. [[Earth Tremor]]).

Although Bristles have made no appearances outside of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', they are mentioned in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. Before the Mario Bros. learn the [[Bros. Ball]] move, [[Toadsworth the Younger]] tells his [[Toadsworth|older self]] that he "looks like he has a Bristle in his britches". | Although Bristles have made no appearances outside of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', they are mentioned in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''.
