| '''{{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]]''.

| ==History==
| |
| ===''Mario & Wario''===
| |
| In ''[[Mario & Wario]]'', [[Wario]] uses a jellyfish on [[Pukupuku Kai|LEVEL6: Pukupuku Kai]] to obscure [[Mario]]'s view.
| |
|
| |
|
| ===''Super Mario Sunshine''===
| | [[Image:5-1b.jpg|frame|right|Green '''Jellyfish'''.]] |
| 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.

|
| |
|
| ===''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze''===
| | Appearing in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', the '''Jellyfish''' are giant jellyfish that live around [[Yoshi's Island]]. They are invincible to all known means of defeat, and have a greed for intruders to their waters. Jellyfish come in three colors: Blue, Red, and Green. Blue Jellyfish simply move wherever they want. Red Jellyfish chase Yoshi. Green Jellyfish simply float up and down. Red Jellyfish can sometimes have an item like a [[Fruit]] or a [[Heart Fruit]]. |

| 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.

| ==Names in other languages==
| | 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]]". |

| {{Super Mario Sunshine}}
| | 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]]. |

| [[Category:Jellyfish|*]] | | Later in ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'' small Jellyfish that looked more like actual ones and not cartoon-like ones appeared as enemies that would shock [[Donkey Kong]]. |

| [[Category:Mario & Wario]] | | In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', Jellyfish appear in various galaxies, mostly in the [[Deep Dark Galaxy]]. They float arround the water and they would hurt the player when touched. They can be defeated by throwing shells at them. |
