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]]''. | 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]]''. 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]]. | ||
