'''Ring-a-Ding''', originally known as '''Ding-A-Ling''', is a pair of small bell-like creatures and a member of the [[Smithy Gang]].

Mario and his allies encounter Ring-a-Ding in [[Smithy]]'s [[Factory (Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars)|Factory]]. They, along with [[Count Down]], guard an early part of the factory. 

Ring-a-Ding can attack physically or use special moves, such as [[Dark Star (move)|Dark Star]], which is similar to the special attack used by [[Mallow]], but targets a single character for high damage, [[Doom Reverb]], which casts [[Mute (status effect)|Mute]] against a single character and [[Fear Roulette]], which KOs a party member at random. It can also chant "Time is marching on!" which will cause Count Down to skip ahead hours.
