'''{{wp|Jellyfish}}''' sometimes appear in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]]. Their appearance is slightly distinct in almost every game they appear in, but always retain the usual traits of their real life counterparts, such as tentacles and globe-shaped bells. Jellyfish also serve as basis for other creatures found in the ''Super Mario'' games, including [[Jelectro]]s from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and [[Jellybeam]]s from ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''.
 
'''Jellyfish''' are giant water-dwelling creatures that live around [[Yoshi's Island (place)|Yoshi's Island]]. They are invincible to all known means of defeat, and have a greed for intruders to their waters. Jellyfish come in Blue, Red, and Green.  Blue Jellyfish simply move up and down.  Red Jellyfish chase Yoshi. Green Jellyfish simply float in place. Red Jellyfish can sometimes have an item like a [[Fruit]] or a [[Heart Fruit]].
 
It is entirely possible that Jellyfish are related to [[Jelectro]]s, another type of jellyfish enemy found in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. Pre-''Yoshi's Story'' jellyfish also appeared in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', going under the name "[[Preying Mantas]]".
 
==History==
==History==
===''Mario & Wario''===
===''Mario & Wario''===
In ''[[Mario & Wario]]'', [[Wario]] uses a jellyfish on [[Pukupuku Kai|LEVEL6: Pukupuku Kai]] to obscure [[Mario]]'s view.
In ''[[Mario & Wario]]'', [[Wario]] uses a jellyfish on one stage to obscure [[Mario]]'s view.  


===''Super Mario Sunshine''===
===''Yoshi's Story''===
Jellyfish make a minor appearance in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', where Nokis are seen riding them in the episode [[The Red Coin Fish]]. They are harmless, as bumping into them does not hurt Mario.

[[Image:5-1b.jpg|thumb|150px|right|Green '''Jellyfish'''.]]
In ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', Jellyfish only appear in the level [[Lots O'Jellyfish!]]. Green ones don't appear until the third part of the level.

There are also two [[Jellyfish Sisters]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. In this game, Jellyfish are depicted as a [[human]]oid, [[Toad]]-like, bipedal, and very rare species. As a matter of fact, only two other Jellyfish exist in the game, one as a clerk in the Massage Room, the other at the beach of the [[Beanbean Kingdom]] explaining how to cross [[Oho Ocean]].
In ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' and its Nintendo Switch [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|port]], jellyfish<ref>{{cite|author=von Esmarch, Nick, and Cory van Grier|title=''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' PRIMA Official Game Guide|page=13|date=February 21, 2014|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|isbn=978-0-804-16252-4}}</ref> appear as common enemies in the water levels of [[Sea Breeze Cove]]. Their movement path may vary from individual to individual; some simply swim in a straight line up and down, while other revolve around a certain spot. Jellyfish charge up some momentum before moving in a set direction. Like the [[Jelly Fish]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'', they are electrically charged and can damage the [[Kong]]s on contact. They can only be defeated with a nearby [[Kong POW]]. These enemies glow softly and are clearly visible in the dark, as seen in [[Amiss Abyss]], a level which marks their first encounter with the Kongs in the game.

Later in ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'' small Jellyfish that looked more like actual ones and not cartoon-like ones called [[Birimēra]] appeared as enemies that would shock [[Donkey Kong]]. A sub-species called [[Puchimēra]] also appear alongside them.

In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', Jellyfish appear in a few galaxies, in the [[Deep Dark Galaxy]] and the [[Bigmouth Galaxy]]. In this game, they are blue, and are very large. If Mario comes in contact with one, he will be shocked. They could only be defeated by hitting them two times with a [[Koopa Shell]], and would give one [[Coin]] when defeated.

In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', a Jellyfish appears in the [[Cosmic Cove Galaxy]]. It behaves the same way as in the predecessor, but instead of giving a Coin when defeated it will give ten [[Star Bit]]s.
