'''Flipstings''' are scorpion-like enemies from ''[[Wario Land: Shake It!]]''. Because of their stinger tail, [[Wario]] cannot jump on them or [[Dash Attack]] them from the front. With an [[Earthshake Punch]], Wario can put these enemies into their shells, making them safe to attack or throw at other nearby enemies. A red variant of them exists that can cling to ceilings and pierces the ceiling with its tail to strike the floor above it.
