| | '''Bulbers''' are angler-fish-like enemies that appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. They only appear in [[World 8-4 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 8-4]] with the same function as the [[Jellybeam]]s. Bulbers swim freely in the water, illuminating the area around them. They can be defeated by attacking them with a [[fireball]], by freezing them or by running into them with a [[Star|Starman]], although this is not necessary and perhaps even detrimental due to loss of illumination. Bulbers are very passive and will only hurt [[Mario]] if he touches them. |

| ==History==
| | Bulbers reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros U]]'' where they act exactly like the prequel, they appear alongside [[Jellybeam]] in [[Deepsea Ruins]] of the [[Soda Jungle]]. However, they come after the Jellybeams this time. |
