'''Hermie III''' is a giant, lisping hermit crab that lives in [[Gwarhar Lagoon]] during the events of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''. When the [[Beanstar]] breaks into four pieces, Hermie claims one and places it at the top of his shell. With some help from fellow [[Gwarhar Lagoon Resident|residents of Gwarhar Lagoon]], Hermie manages to decorate his shell with various ornaments, making a Christmas tree. When [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] arrive, Hermie refuses to give up the Beanstar; however, the real problem comes when Hermie's helpers start to pay more attention to the Mario Bros., who they recognize, than his prized decorations. Hermie loses his temper and starts a battle with Mario and Luigi. | |||

Hermie has one main attack: pinching at the Mario Bros. with his claws. The only way to dodge this attack is to jump. If the claw starts to vibrate, it hits the brother it is closest to. If it doesn't, he switches. He also spits pink bubbles which can [[poison (status effect)|poison]] Mario or Luigi unless they are destroyed with the [[Hammer]]. After he has taken some damage, Hermie hides in his shell, where he begins to heal himself. To get him out, Mario must use his [[Firebrand]] or [[Fire Bros. (move)|Fire Bros.]] attack on him. This makes him angrily pop out of his shell, yelling about how the brothers are ruining his decorations. This also causes his claws to be replenished with half of their [[Heart Point|HP]] that was originally lost as well. When the brothers attack Hermie's head with at least one of his claws present, he will immediately gain an extra attack by attempting to pinch the brothers with his claw(s). Throughout this battle, Hermie will periodically spend a turn by increasing his attack power, rather than attacking the Mario Bros. himself. | |||
After being defeated, the Bros. explain the situation to the hermit crab, who reluctantly gives up the Beanstar piece, while the locals apologize for Hermie's behavior, explaining that he is "kooky." Optionally, Mario and Luigi can later choose to make amends with Hermie III by giving him [[Spangle]] to place on his shell, and Hermie gratefully rewards them a [[Soulful Bros.]] badge. | |||
In ''Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser'' in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', Hermie III appears in the mission [[Spangle's Honey Pie]], where he kidnaps [[Starlow]] and a [[Bob-omb]] to use a decorations for [[Wendy O. Koopa]]'s "cutie battle contest." At the end of the mission, Starlow escapes and attacks Hermie III, freeing the Bob-omb and causing Hermie to leave. | |||

*Hermie III is | *Although it can be assumed that "Hermie III" is to be pronounced "Hermie the Third", the inclusion of the number three in Hermie's full name may be a pun on "tree", the object he highly resembled while his shell was decorated. | ||
*During the fight, [[Sidesteppers]] from the original ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'' periodically run around behind and in front of the combatants, presumably to distract the player. They are replaced by [[Huckit Crab]]s in the remake. | |||
*Hermie III is a likely reference to the Yadotsurī enemies in the Japan-only game [[wikipedia:Tomato Adventure|''Tomato Adventure'']]; a game previously developed by [[AlphaDream]] for the [[Game Boy Advance]] which later served as the basis for ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga''. The Yadotsurī enemies are also orange hermit crabs decorated like Christmas trees, although they are much smaller than Hermie III. | |||
