In ''Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic'' and ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', Flurries are enemies that run along the ice chasing after [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach|Peach]], or [[Toad]]. Like them, they have poor traction on the ice and can slip off of the platform they're on. They only appear in [[World 4 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 4]]. In the rare instances that they can be led onto non-icy surfaces, such as the bottom of the second tower in [[World 4-3 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 4-3]], they have perfect traction. In the NES version of ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', Flurries are entirely white, while in the SNES version and other subsequent remakes, they are tinted pink and have blue feet.

Some Flurries occasionally appeared in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', where they spoke, despite not having visible mouths. Due to [[Wart]] not appearing on the show, they work for [[Bowser|King Koopa]] here, and one ([[Flaky]]) even had a name. Staying true to the spirit of the games, Flurries appeared only in episodes that are set in snowy environments: the [[Land of Ice]] in "[[The Bird! The Bird!]]", the [[North Pole]] from "[[Koopa Klaus]]", and the [[Thirteen Mushroom Colonies]] in "[[The Koopas are Coming! The Koopas are Coming!]]" Unlike in the game, some of them have arms.

[[File:Smb princess1.jpg|thumb|left|A page of [[Dear Princess Toadstool]] featuring Flurry's question]]
In an installment of [[Dear Princess Toadstool]] feature in the ''[[Nintendo Comics System]]'', a Flurry wrote to Princess Toadstool asking for a solution to get rid of snowflakes that are seen by other people as dandruff flakes. She responded that his friends should ignore the flakes, and he should respond back to strangers if they insult him. Immediately bellow her response has Luigi, as a barber, asking a Flurry if he wants to blow dry his "hair". He then told Luigi to just melt his sideburns.
