| ==History==
| |
| ===''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.

| | |
| 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 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.

| | '''Robirdo''' is a huge robotic version of [[Birdo]] in the game ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'', replacing [[Mouser]] as the boss of World 3-3; it has the ability to shoot giant growing [[Egg|eggs]] from its mouth. In its chamber are several chains that whoever the [[player]] chooses can climb to protect the player from Robirdo's attacks. The player can defeat it the same way he/she would defeat a normal Birdo; by throwing its eggs back at it. It has a charging attack and a jump that sends a shock wave along the ground. |

| | *Robirdo is a portmanteau of "Robot" and "Birdo". |
| | *Robirdo often does a [[Ground Pound (move)|ground pound]] that sends a shock wave along the ground to stun Mario, Luigi, Peach, or Toad. This was likely inspired by the first boss battle of ''[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong '94]]''. |
| | *Robirdo speaks with a robotic version of the regular Birdo's voice. One of Birdo's quotes, "How ''could'' you?!", is also said by Robirdo in said voice. |
| | *It is unknown whether or not Robirdo is a sentient being, or of it's a mech that the actual Birdo is controlling from the inside, in a similar manner to [[Magnus Von Grapple]] and [[Brobot]]. |
