'''Capnaps''' are sleepy creatures covered in yellow flaps with several strands of grass on their heads that appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]''. Its name is a portmanteau of "cap" and "catnap".

==History==
===''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''===
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', Capnaps appear in [[Mushrise Park]] and may sometimes appear alongside [[Thorb]]s. In the field, they tend to fall asleep, but will awaken and charge at intruders into their territory if there is one. Three of them are required to battle, which serves as a tutorial for Bros. Attacks. In battle, Capnaps have many attacks. They may teeter drowsily back and forth near a Bro., who must either smack the ground near it with his hammer to wake it up, or smash the Capnap itself before it inevitably crashes into him. Capnaps also are able to run at both [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] by running into the foreground or background and dashing straight towards them, where they must [[jump]] as the Capnap nears them to avoid it.

A Capnap may also attempt to charge into a Bro. after approaching him, which can be evaded by jumping before the Capnap hits him. Sometimes the Capnap falls [[asleep]] before it is awakened by a noise and attacking. In this case, the Bros. must time their jumps properly.

Variants of Capnaps appear in the Dream World, being [[Dreamcap]]s and [[Dreamcap Captain]]s. These in turn have stronger variants, the [[Dreamcap R|Dreamcaps R]] and [[Dreamcap Captain R|Dreamcap Captains R]].

===''Mario & Luigi: Brothership''===
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]'', Capnaps appear in the [[Lushgreen Sea, Great Lighthouse Island]] and [[Liil Islet]], and may sometimes appear alongside [[Spikely|Spikelies]] in the former area and [[Hydro Seedle]]s and [[Drillby|Drillbies]] in the latter area. Their behavior in the field is similar to their behavior in ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'', and they even use the same attacks as in that game. Stronger variants called [[Capnap R|Capnaps R]] appear in [[Bulbfish Island]]. When [[Gobblick]] performs its spit attack, it may sometimes spit them along with the aforementioned Spikelies and [[Coin]]s. These Capnaps cannot be countered and must be avoided.

Later in the game, Capnaps are infected with [[Glohm]] and become much stronger. [[Glohm Capnap]]s can pass on their Glohm infection, explode into a fiery shockwave when destroyed, and are also spat out by [[Glohm Gobblick]].
