Although they ''are'' frogs, they're not pirates. '''Frog Pirates''' live in the swamps and wetlands on [[Yoshi's Island]] in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. If a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] comes too close to one, it will lash out it's tongue and steal [[Baby Mario]]. Stepping on its head only disables it for a moment, instead, try throwing an [[Egg]].

'''Frog Pirates'''<ref name=guide>{{cite|author=Miller, Kent, and Terry Munson|title=''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' Player's Guide|language=en-us|publisher=Nintendo of America|date=1995|page={{file link|SMW2 Guide 127.jpg|127}}}}</ref> are [[List of enemies|enemies]] in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its remake]]. These frogs live in the swamps and wetlands of [[Yoshi's Island (location)|Yoshi's Island]] and appear mainly in [[World 3 (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|World 3]]. If a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] comes too close to one, it will lash out its tongue and try to steal [[Baby Mario]]. Stepping on its head only disables it for a moment, so Yoshi should instead try to throw an [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]] at the frog or swallow it. Spitting out a Frog Pirate will only make it fall off the screen, enabling it to respawn later.


The World 3 mid-boss [[Froggy]] is based on this enemy, and unlike other bosses in the game, bears no visible differences to the enemy he is based on. In the Japanese version of the game, Froggy and Frog Pirates have the same name (''Gerogēro''). In Froggy's boss fight, it is implied that Frog Pirates like to eat [[Shy Guy|Shy-Guy]]s.
The World 3 mid-boss [[Prince Froggy]], swallows a Yoshi whole. He's the only major Frog Pirate known.
==Profiles and statistics==
===''Yoshi's Island'' series===
====''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''====
*'''Shogakukan guide:''' なが~い舌をのばして赤ちゃんをさらう大ガエル。タマゴを当てるとしばらく気絶するので、そのスキに食ベてしまおう。<ref name=Sho/> (''A large frog that snatches the baby by stretching out its long tongue. If you hit it with an egg, it faints, so eat it while it's still unconscious.'')
*'''[[Player's Guide]]:''' ''These larcenous amphibians have tongues even longer than Yoshi's, and they'd love to steal Baby Mario!''<ref name=guide/>


====''Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3''====
Frog Pirates in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'' look a lot different. They are yellow and jump really high (making it hard for [[Yoshi]] to swallow them), then slide aways before jumping again. They are also displayed horizontially rather than the hgalf-face forward Frog Pirates of ''Yoshi's Island'' (see picture above).
*'''Shogakukan guide (shared with [[Froggy]]):''' 長い舌をのばして、赤ちゃんをさらう大ガエル。タマゴを当てると気絶するので、その間に食ベてしまおう。ワールド3-4ではボスとしても登場。<ref name=p16/> (''A large frog that snatches the baby by stretching out its long tongue. If you hit it with an egg, it faints, so eat it while it's still unconscious. It also appears as a boss in World 3-4.'')
