'''Lakitu's Clouds''' (occasionally '''Lakitu's clouds'''<ref>"Commandeer Lakitu's cloud and use it to collect coins." - [[Lakitu's Cloud Heist]], ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''</ref> and originally '''Jugem's Cloud'''<ref>''Super Mario Bros. 3'' instruction booklet. Page 24.</ref> ("Jugem" being the romanization of Lakitu's Japanese name) are a type of cloud with a smiley face usually inhibited by [[Lakitu]]s. | |||
==Appearance== | |||
Most Lakitu's Clouds are white. However, in ''[[Paper Mario]]'', [[Lakilulu]] has a pink-colored cloud; additionally, [[Dark Lakitu]]s from ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' have gray clouds. [[Lakithunder]] from ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' also has a dark gray cloud with glaring, yellow eyes, capable of firing lightning bolts. [[King Lakitu]] from ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', another lightning-firing Lakitu, has a purple cloud. [[Lakipea]]s, the [[Beanbean Kingdom]] equivalent of Lakitus, have vines covering their clouds. | |||

Many Lakitu's Clouds also have faces. In the ''Paper Mario'' series, the clouds share the expressions of their owners; additionally, some Lakitu's Clouds in the ''Paper Mario'' series wear sunglasses. The clouds of [[Fishing Boo]]s and [[Calm Fishing Boo]]s do not have faces, however. In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyushutsu Dai Sakusen!]]'', all Lakitus are portrayed without faces on their clouds. In the latter, Lakitu and Mario are able to control rain, thunder, sun, typhoons, and snow with levers on the cloud. | |||
Similar cloud characters and items have appeared throughout the ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise. In ''Super Mario World'', when Yoshi eats two pink [[Berry|berries]] in the same stage, a cloud resembling Lakitu's Cloud appears and drops ten striped smiley-faced coins, giving a [[1-Up Mushroom]] if all of them are collected. The [[Thunder Cloud]] item in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' looks like a Lakitu's Cloud, but a bluish-gray color with a [[Lightning]] on its head. [[Ruff Puff]]'s Tattle in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' openly speculates on the relationship between it and the similar Lakitu's Cloud. | |||

In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Jugem's Cloud can be used by the player on the world map to skip a level and move to the next available space. However, their previous saved location will not be updated, so if they lose a life right after using it, they will be transported back to their map position before using it. (This can be avoided by updating the player's saved location as usual, by using a [[Warp Pipe]] on the map or clearing a level without losing a life.) | |||
====''Super Mario World''==== | ====''Super Mario World'' / ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''==== | ||
In ''[[Super Mario World]]'', ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and subsequent side-scrolling platformers in the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' and ''[[Yoshi's Island (series)|Yoshi's Island]]'' series, after taking out the Lakitu riding a Lakitu's Cloud, the player can jump on it to temporarily float around and reach places that they could normally not get to. Although Lakitus typically only travel across a horizontal axis, the player's control of the Lakitu's clouds allows for travel in any direction for as long as the cloud lasts. | |||
A [[List of Super Mario World glitches#Everlasting cloud ride|glitch]] exists in ''Super Mario World'' that causes the cloud to last indefinitely if the Lakitu on top is defeated with [[Fire Flower|fire power]]. | A [[List of Super Mario World glitches#Everlasting cloud ride|glitch]] exists in ''Super Mario World'' that causes the cloud to last indefinitely if the Lakitu on top is defeated with [[Fire Flower|fire power]]. | ||
====''New Super Mario Bros. 2''==== | |||
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', Lakitu's Clouds now swell up for a split second during the "bah"s in the music. When the player touches a [[Gold Ring]], Lakitus become [[Gold Lakitu]]s, and their clouds also become golden. When the player rides on the golden cloud and moves, it generates coins. | |||

====''Super Mario Galaxy 2''==== | ====''Super Mario Galaxy 2''==== | ||
Lakitus reappear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' riding their clouds, but these clouds cannot be ridden by [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]]. If a Lakitu's Cloud is eaten by [[Yoshi]], the Lakitu will fall to the ground on its shell and struggle for a few seconds until the cloud reappears. | |||
====''New Super Mario Bros. U | ====''New Super Mario Bros. U''==== | ||
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', Lakitu's Cloud now mouths to the "bah"s in the music. It also appears in the [[Challenge Mode (New Super Mario Bros. U)|Challenge Mode]] level [[Lakitu's Cloud Heist]]. | |||
====''Super Mario Maker''==== | ====''Super Mario Maker''==== | ||
In ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', players can shake Lakitus to remove them from their clouds, leaving them for Mario to use or to put other enemies, objects, and power ups such as [[Hammer Bro]]s, [[Cannon]]s, and [[Super Mushroom]]s in them. If an enemy is placed in a Lakitu's Cloud, it will move horizontally across the screen. If given [[Wings]], the enemy will move horizontally while moving vertically in a wave-like pattern. | |||
====''Super Mario Maker 2''==== | ====''Super Mario Maker 2''==== | ||
In ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', a Lakitu's Cloud is used as a part of [[Peach's Castle]] during its reconstruction after completing a certain mission. | |||
===''Mario Kart'' series=== | ===''Mario Kart'' series=== | ||
In ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' games, Lakitu's Cloud is frequently seen alongside the recurring [[Fishin' Lakitu]] assistant. In ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', the cloud wears goggles in water-themed courses. A kart based on it, [[Cloud 9]], is also introduced in that game. In ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', Lakitu's Cloud appears on several flags around the course [[Dragon Driftway]]. | |||
