| '''Megabites''' are evil skulls that appear in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', and can be found in various locations. Their waving purple tails give them a vaguely fish-like appearance. Their name is both a pun and portmanteau of "megabyte", a measurement in computing, and "bite". | | '''Megabites''' are strange, evil skulls in the game ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. They swoop down from the sky at the heroes, dealing 1 damage with each hit. No matter how high the heroes attack power is, they will only take 1 damage per hit. With 4 [[HP]], it will take four hits to defeat. |

|
| ==Description==
| | What causes their appearance is unknown. Generally, it is believed they appear when the heroes take too long in a single area in any given level. However, in both Pit Of 100 Trials, they appear immediately upon entrance to the floors they appear on. |
| In at least one stage within each world, if the player remains in certain areas too long, the game will play an eerie sound cue after 3 to 5 minutes and a Megabite will spawn. They only spawn once per level, and leaving the area won't make them be able to spawn again.

| They swoop down from the sky at the player, dealing 1 damage with each hit. Megabites have 4 [[Heart Point|HP]], and will only take 1 damage per hit from any attack.
| | Interestingly, the ghostly purple tail they have waves up and down while they are flying, possibly indicating they are vengeful spirits of some kind of fish. |

|
| If the player does not defeat a Megabite after about seven swoops, they will eventually [[flee]] without leaving any reward. Megabites appear in the following areas:

| Megabites have a chance of dropping items such as a [[Shooting Star (item)|Shooting Star]], a [[Thunder Rage]], or, more rarely, a [[Catch Card SP]] upon defeat, as well as lots of [[coin]]s.
| |
| | |
| Megabites won't spawn if [[Mario]] or the other characters are in an elevated area. However, once the player leaves and comes to the ground, a Megabite immediately spawns, if enough time had passed.
