'''Penguins''' are a species of anthropomorphic, flightless bird found in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise. They are good swimmers and often inhabit cold climates, like their real-world {{wp|penguin|counterpart}}s, to which they bear varying degrees of resemblance depending on the game. Many also inhabit tropical areas, as seen in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''.

Many also inhabit tropical areas, as seen in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Most of them do no harm to [[Mario]], though they sometimes act as obstacles or hindrances to his quest. Friendly penguins often speak with Mario, sometimes asking for his help or offering him a service. | ||
Penguins from the ''Super Mario'' franchise are colored a moderate dark shade of blue with white bellies, making them similar to [[Bumpty|Bumpties]]. They also resemble {{wp|little penguin}}s, also colored dark blue. Uncommonly in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise, ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' feature red, green, and yellow penguins (the [[Penguin Racers|red one]] in the latter having long, yellow eyebrows similar to {{wp|rockhopper penguin}}s), while a purple one appears in the latter. [[Penguru]] and [[Coach (Super Mario Galaxy)|Coach]] are colored similar to both {{wp|king penguin}}s and {{wp|emperor penguin}}s and are gray and black respectively. In some games, the back of their heads is tapered by a small crest. | Penguins from the ''Super Mario'' franchise are colored a moderate dark shade of blue with white bellies, making them similar to [[Bumpty|Bumpties]].

Penguins | Penguins make their debut in the [[Dr. Mario (series)|''Dr. Mario'' series]] in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'' as Assistants. They were added on December 12, along with [[World 10 (Dr. Mario World)|World 10]]. When equipped in stage mode, the doctor's skill gauge will further increase by a percentage if four or more viruses are simultaneously eliminated. For example, with a level 3 Penguin (fills skill by 50% more), if a row of four viruses is eliminated with one half-[[capsule]], there will be five objects (four viruses + one half-capsule) eliminated but the skill gauge will fill by 7.5 points: 5 points from the match and 2.5 extra points (50% of 5 points) through this assistant. In versus mode, each attack by the user has a chance of ignoring the opponent's defense, resulting in the attack landing regardless of how likely the opponent can block the attack. Penguin assistants are each rewarded by clearing the first are in [[World 10 (Dr. Mario World)|World 10]] and [[World 26]]. | ||
