A '''Huhwhat''' (originally known as a '''Pandorite''') is an enemy disguised as a [[treasure chest|treasure box]] that appears in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its remake]]. The creature inside the chest appears to be either a squat, pudgy ghost or a mole of some sort. It is encountered in the [[Kero Sewers]]. Its original name comes from the name of the Greek legend of {{wp|Pandora's box}}, a container that released the world's misfortunes when opened. In the remake, its new name of Huhwhat is a combination of the interjections "huh" and "what," while also staying true to its Japanese name.
'''Huhwhat'''<ref>Mirror Gaming (November 2, 2023). [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZz-A8RkRdQ You’ve waited 27 years for this… - Super Mario RPG Gameplay Preview]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved November 2, 2023.</ref>, originally known as '''Pandorite''', is an enemy disguised as a [[treasure chest|treasure box]] that appears in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. The creature inside the chest appears to either be a squat, pudgy ghost, or a mole of some sort. It is encountered in [[Kero Sewers]]. Its original name comes from the Greek legend of {{wp|Pandora's box}}, a jar that released the world's misfortunes once opened by a curious woman named Pandora seeking treasure. In [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|the remake]], its new name of Huhwhat is a combination of “huh” and “what”, while also staying true to its Japanese name.


A Huhwhat possesses both high physical attack and defense, and equally high magical attack and defense. It is immune to all special attacks, [[Mario]]'s various [[jump]] attacks excepted. In battle, a Huhwhat can cast various fire spells, including [[Flame (move)|Flame]] and [[Flame Wall]]. The creature inside the chest also uses the attack [[Scream]], which can induce the [[Fear]] status ailment and [[Carni-Kiss]], as well as physical strikes. Defeating Huhwhat rewards Mario's party with ten [[Experience Point]]s, 30 [[coin]]s, a [[Flower Jar]], and the [[Trueform Pin]]. If Mario exits the room and reenters it at any point, the treasure box that previously held the Huhwhat then contains an additional 50 coins instead.
