'''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.

*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.

-'''Hermie III''' is a giant hermit crab that appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and its remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''. He wears a shell that resembles a Christmas tree and speaks with a {{wp|lisp}}, since he pronounces "s" as "th," and he resides in [[Gwarhar Lagoon]]. The name "Hermie III" is likely pronounced "Hermie the Third." The inclusion of the Roman numeral for "three" may be a homophone of "tree," the object his shell highly resembles.
-==History==
+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]].

Throughout this battle, Hermie will periodically spend a turn by increasing his attack power, rather than attacking the Mario Bros. himself.
-===''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' / ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions''===
-When the [[Beanstar]] breaks into four pieces, one of the fragments ends up in Hermie's possession. He places it at the top of his shell, and manages to decorate his shell with various other ornaments with some help from fellow [[lagoon-dweller]]s, making a Christmas tree.
-When [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] arrive, Hermie asks if the Mario Bros. came to help decorate his shell, which they refuse; he then looks at Mario's red clothes and mustache and mistakes him for Santa Claus, causing the Bros. to face-fault. One of the lagoon-dwellers helping Hermie then notices Mario and recognizes him; when Mario confirms his identity with a jump, she calls the others over immediately, causing them to stop decorating and crowd Mario. When Luigi tries to pull him away, the trio then suddenly realize who he is and crowd him instead, asking him several questions. The lack of attention causes Hermie to lose his temper, and he attacks Mario and Luigi for interfering with the decorating.
+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.
-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." The lagoon-dwellers then point them towards a shortcut the Bros. can use to shorten the trip back. 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. Hermie is last seen in the end credits, waving goodbye to the Mario Bros.
-In addition to reprising his role in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', Hermie III additionally appears in ''[[Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser]]'' during the mission [[Spangle's Honey Pie]], where he kidnaps [[Starlow]] and a [[Bob-omb]] to use as decorations for [[Wendy]]'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.

-==Battle==
+|align=horizontal
-Hermie III has a pair of pincers that can be targeted separately for attacks, and he often approaches the Bros. to attack by extending these claws. The claw pulses briefly before it lunges at the brother in front of it; occasionally he puts a normal pincer forward as a feint, then switches to the other. In the remake, Hermie's claws are on jointed limbs that extend forward, and each claw rears back before snapping at Mario or Luigi, with the absence of the rearing motion signaling a feint. The pincer attacks can be dodged or [[counterattack]]ed by [[jump]]ing, and damaging the pincers enough puts them out of commission temporarily. Hermie III also spits pink bubbles that can [[poison (status effect)|poison]] Mario or Luigi unless the Bros. pop them with the [[hammer]].
+|image=[[File:MLSSHermieIII.gif]]
+}}
-After his first pincer attack, Hermie becomes frustrated, and increases his attack power after each attempt. If his head is attacked, Hermie immediately retaliates using his pincer attack. Once he has taken some damage, Hermie may hide in his shell, significantly reducing damage and healing himself each turn. He comes back out after restoring a certain amount of HP, along with restoring up to half the HP of each claw. If Mario uses any [[Firebrand]]-based attacks on Hermie while he hides, he will angrily pop out of his shell and yell about the brothers ruining his decorations.

-In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', Hermie III gains the [[Fury]] status upon losing half his HP or more, and begins attacking faster and more often each turn like most other bosses. His idle animation changes to give his eyes the same angry look as they have in the overworld when he loses his temper.
