'''Gnarantulas''' are cloud-covered arachnids found in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', found in the skies or caves in [[Yoshi's Island (location)|Yoshi's Island]]. Their name is a portmanteau of the words "gnaw" and "tarantula," though they more closely resemble ants, having only four visible legs, sideways jaws, and two antennae. Only [[Baby Mario]] and [[Baby Luigi]] can encounter them. The cloud hides their body; when attacked, a Gnarantula's unmasked form is revealed. There are two forms of Gnarantulas: the green, spiked Gnarantula, and the red, spike-less Gnarantula. A [[jump]] [[First Strike]] is always effective and instantly removes the clouds from all Gnarantulas in the battle. Both varieties are vulnerable to [[Ice Flower]]s. To attack, a Gnarantula jumps, then jumps again in mid-air, eventually falling to the ground and crushing an opponent. This attack can be countered with a [[hammer]].

Gnarantulas can be fought alongside [[Pidgit]]s. If there are four Gnaratulas with no other enemies in battle, all the Gnaratulas to the right will be green and all the Gnaratulas on the left will be red.

A '''Gnarantula''' is a cloud-covered arachnid found in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. Only the babies can encounter them. The cloud hides the monster's body; when attacked, a Gnarantula's true form will be revealed. In fact, there are two types of Gnarantulas: the green, spiked Gnarantula and the orange, spike-less Gnarantula. As the cloud conceals its body, it is unwise to [[jump]] on a Gnarantula until its true form has been revealed. Otherwise, one might accidentally be damaged by the green Gnarantula's spikes. Of course, the orange variety can be jumped on. The green variety is vulnerable to fire attacks, while the orange variety is vulnerable to ice. To attack, a Gnarantula will jump then jump again in mid-air, eventually falling to the ground and crushing an opponent. This attack can be countered with a [[Hammer]] strike. Gnarantulas live in the clouds high above [[Yoshi's Island]]. If there are 4 Gnaratulas with no other enemies, all the Gnaratulas to the right (on their side) are Green and all the Gnaratulas on the left are Orange.


Gnarantulas seem to reference [[Lakitu]]s and [[Spiny|Spinies]], with each of its three forms resembling the latter or the former in some way (red Gnarantulas resemble cloud-less Lakitus with the colours of Spinies, green ones resemble Spinies with the colours of Lakitus, and the clouds they have look like the [[Lakitu's Cloud|clouds on which Lakitus are often seen]]). The Gnarantulas, particularly the red variant, also visually resemble the [[Spoing]] and [[Spangler]] enemies from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''.
