'''Hoppycats''' are green mollusk-like enemies with spikes on their backs and large mouths with retractable sharp teeth on their undersides that appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]''. They are primarily found in [[Shining Falls]], and attack by jumping whenever the player jumps, similar to [[Spiny Skipsqueak]]s in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', before descending slowly back to the ground, during which the player can pass underneath them. They sometimes jump up into the level from underneath, while others can be found attached to the ceiling, jumping with reversed gravity. They can hit and activate blocks just like the player. There is also a red log-like [[lift]] that shoots out a Hoppycat from the side whenever the player jumps while riding it, which can be used to hit blocks to the right.<ref>Nintendo of America (August 31, 2023).
