Its<ref name="Advance"/> name is a portmanteau of "robot" and "Birdo", as well as a possible pun on "[[wiktionary:Roberto|Roberto]]".  
'''Robirdo''' is a huge, robotic version of [[Birdo]] that appeared in the game ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'', a remake of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. It replaces [[Mouser]] from the original game as the boss of [[World 3-3 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 3-3]]. Robirdo speaks with a robotic version of the regular Birdo's voice, using a couple of her direct quotes during boss intro and upon being defeated ("How ''could'' you?!"). Its name is a portmanteau of "robot" and "Birdo".

===''Super Mario Advance''===
===''Super Mario Advance''===
In ''Super Mario Advance'', Robirdo replaces [[Mouser]] from [[Super Mario Bros. 2|the original game]] as the boss of [[World 3-3 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 3-3]]. Despite being derived from the pink Birdo, both in appearance and function, it speaks with a robotic version of Red Birdo's voice, using a couple of her direct quotes during boss intro and upon being defeated ("How could you?"). Robirdo has three attacks: the first has it fire giant [[Birdo's Egg|eggs]] from its mouth. The second attack is a direct charge towards the player, used after taking damage or following one of the other attacks. The player can avoid this by grabbing one of the [[Chain (object)|chains]] hanging from the ceiling. The third attack is used once Robirdo has taken at least one hit - a [[Ground Pound]]-like jump that immobilizes the player. The only way to damage Robirdo is to throw the giant eggs back at it; it takes five hits to defeat. After it takes three hits, however, it continuously moves its head up and down when performing the charge attack, causing the player to possibly take damage when riding on top of it. The ending credits depict it without its bow; this is consistent with the normal Birdo.
In ''Super Mario Advance'', Robirdo is an added member of the [[8 bits]], which helped [[Wart]] conquer [[Subcon]].


Robirdo has an [[List of Super Mario Advance pre-release and unused content|unused]] voice clip of her saying, "I'm gonna finish you off!", presumably a leftover from one of Red Birdo's clips, due to the rest of her voice clips being used.
Robirdo has three attacks: the first has it fire giant eggs from its mouth is a classic Birdo attack - firing eggs from its mouth. The second attack is a direct charge towards the player, used after taking damage or following one of the other attacks. The player can avoid this by grabbing one of the chains hanging from the ceiling. The third attack is used once Robirdo has taken at least one hit - a [[Ground Pound]]-like jump that immobilizes the player. The only way to damage Robirdo is to throw the giant eggs back at it; it takes five hits to defeat her.


===''Super Mario-kun''===
Coincidentally, the filter used for Robirdo's voice clips is similar to the one used for [[Metal Mario (character)|Metal Mario]] starting from ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', as well as [[Pink Gold Peach]].

Robirdo makes an appearance also in volume 26 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]''. It appears in a short segment involving ''Super Mario Advance'' at the end of the chapter of the main story. The [[Shy Guy]]s unleash Robirdo on Mario, but Mario defeats it by throwing a [[Mega Guy|Giant Shy Guy]] at it.
The ending credits depict her without her bow; this is consistent with the normal Birdo, who also lacks her bow, as she was originally depicted without it in her original NES sprites and the ending credits.
