A '''Flaptack'''<ref>{{cite|author=Browne, Catherine|title=''Super Mario Galaxy 2: PRIMA Official Game Guide''|location=Roseville|publisher=Random House Inc|date=May 23, 2010|page=26|isbn=978-0-30746-907-6}}</ref> is an [[List of enemies|enemy]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. The "flap" part of its name refers to its bird-like appearance, and the "tack" part refers to the sharp spike on its head. The enemy's name is also a pun on "flapjack," another name for a pancake, referring to the enemy's oblate body and its method of attack by flipping upside down. Flaptacks look like oversized blue birds with yellow spikes on their heads. When a Flaptack spots [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]], it floats around him for a while. After a few seconds, it tries to stab him with its spike on its head. If it misses, it will be stuck on the ground, defenseless. A Flaptack still in the air can be defeated by [[Backward Somersault|backward-somersaulting]] and [[spin]]ning into it, or automatically by luring its slam attack into a [[pit]]. Flaptacks give three [[Star Bit]]s when spun and a [[coin]] when [[jump]]ed on. These enemies can also destroy regular clouds as well as [[Cloud Mario]] or Cloud Luigi's clouds with their spikes. Flaptacks appear in early galaxies such as the [[Fluffy Bluff Galaxy]] and [[Cloudy Court Galaxy]], but they also appear in later galaxies such as the [[Flash Black Galaxy]].

Their name is a portmanteau of "flap", referring to their bird-like appearance, and "tack", referring to the sharp spike on their head. Their name is also a pun on "flapjack", another name for a pancake, referring to their oblate body and their method of attack by flipping upside down. They look like oversized blue birds with a yellow spike on their head. When they spot [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]], they will float around them for a while. After a few seconds, it will try to stab them with its spike on its head. If it misses, it will be stuck on the ground, defenseless. They can be defeated while still in the air by backflipping and [[spin]]ning into them, or automatically by luring their slam attack into a [[pit]]. They give three [[Star Bit]]s when spun and a [[coin]] when jumped on. These enemies can also destroy [[Cloud Mario]] or Cloud Luigi's clouds with its spike. They appear in early galaxies such as the [[Fluffy Bluff Galaxy]] and [[Cloudy Court Galaxy]], but they also appear in later galaxies such as the [[Flash Black Galaxy]].
