'''Jellyfish''' are water-dwelling, usually electrically charged creatures that made several appearances as enemies in ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]''-related media. Their appearance is slightly distinct in almost every game they appear in, but always retain the usual traits of real life [[wikipedia:Jellyfish|jellyfish]], such as tentacles and globe-shaped bells. Jellyfish also serve as basis for other creatures found in the ''Mario'' games, including [[Jelectro]]s from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and [[Jellybeam]]s from ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''.

==History==

{{multiframe|[[File:Yoshi's Story Red and Blue Jellyfish.png|150px]] [[File:Lots'O'Jellyfish!.PNG|150px]]|Jellyfish of each color in ''Yoshi's Story''}}
In ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', Jellyfish<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/19990508003527/http://www.yoshisstory.com/page5.html ''Yoshi's Story'' official website (Wayback Archive)]. Retrieved April 22, 2015.</ref> only appear in the level [[Lots O'Jelly Fish]]. They are impervious to all methods of defeat, and come in blue, red, and green. Blue Jellyfish simply move up and down. Red Jellyfish chase [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]. Green Jellyfish simply float in place, and don't appear until the third part of the stage. Red Jellyfish can sometimes have an item like a [[Fruit]] or a [[Heart Fruit]], and will chase prey.

===''Super Mario Sunshine''===

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

===''Super Mario Galaxy''===
[[File:SMG Jellyfish.png|thumb|A Jellyfish in ''Super Mario Galaxy'']]
In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', Jellyfish<ref>Black, Fletcher. ''Super Mario Galaxy'' [[Prima Games|PRIMA]] Official Game Guide, page 264.</ref> 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 can only be defeated by hitting them two times with a [[Koopa Shell]], and will give one [[Coin]] when defeated. After they are attacked once, they glow green, but don't act any more aggressively.

===''Super Mario Galaxy 2''===
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.

===''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze''===
[[File:Amiss Abyss Jellyfish.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Jellyfish that light up a tenebrous tunnel in ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'']]
In ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'', Jellyfish<ref>von Esmarch, Nick, and Cory van Grier. ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' [[Prima Games|PRIMA]] Official Game Guide, page 13.</ref> appear as common enemies in the water levels of [[Sea Breeze Cove]]. Their motion path may vary from individual to individual; some simply swim in a straight line up and down, while other revolve around a certain spot. If the Kongs touch one, they get electrocuted and lose one life from their health meter. Jellyfish are almost invulnerable; however, they turn into an item if the Kongs perform a [[Kong POW]] nearby. These enemies glow softly and appear distinguishable in detail even in the dark, as seen in [[Amiss Abyss]], a level which marks their first encounter with the Kongs in the game.
