| Pitchforks usually hang on ceilings and if [[Wario]] is under them, they wrench themselves out of the ceiling and fall to the ground. If they see Wario when on the ground, they run towards him trying to stab him with their fork. However, if Wario dodges them and they hit a wall, they get stuck. Wario can then pick them up and throw them. Wario can also jump off of a stuck Pitchfork to gain extra height. | | ==Functions== |

| Pitchforks come in two different varieties: the more common blue ones, and purple ones, which can jump.

| **''Pitchforks are unique creatures with large, fork-like protrusions sticking up from their heads. This makes them quite dangerous when they lower their heads and charge! Pitchforks also commonly drop from the ceiling, attempting to impale Wario as he strolls by.<br>It's always best to stun Pitchforks with Earthshake Punches, as dashing into them can be painful if they suddenly charge. Wario can grab stunned Pitchforks and shake them for garlic, but throwing them produces a slightly different result than the norm: Rather than smashing apart blocks or activating switches, Pitchforks become lodged into whatever they're thrown at and remain stuck there for a time. This lets Wario use Pitchforks as makeshift platforms: Toss one into a tall wall, then jump up and bounce off the Pitchfork's back to reach a higher plateau!''<ref name=Prima>{{cite|isbn=978-0-7615-6113-2|author=Stratton, Steve|title=''Wario Land: Shake It!''
