'''Octopuses''' are enemies appearing in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They are giant, gray [[Octoomba]]s with pale spots and a blue antenna. They are very large in size and have two round body segments with four small feet at their bottom.

[[File:Barrelblooper.jpg|thumb|left|160px|The Octopuses from ''Super Mario Galaxy''.]]
In ''Super Mario Galaxy'', these enemies mostly appeared in areas with [[airship]]s in them and they would usually hide in barrels or stand on platforms until [[Mario]] appeared within their range, after which they would shoot Mario with [[coconut]]s/[[watermelon]]s or [[fireball]]s as their main form of attack.

===''Super Mario Galaxy 2''===
In ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', they reappear again in the [[Shiverburn Galaxy]] where they act as the final enemy defense line that Mario must deafeat (with one exception) before facing [[Prince Pikante]], and again in the [[Grandmaster Galaxy]] although here they do not have to be deafeated.

They are giant, gray relatives of [[Octoomba]]s with many pale spots and a blue antenna. They are larger than the Octoombas and their torsos have two large coils, with four cephalopod arms appearing from the bottom. They are capable of firing projectiles from their funnels. They are based off the [[zeldawiki:Octorok|Octorok]]s from the ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda (Series)|The Legend of Zelda]]'' franchise, particularly in the 3D games, where they can be defeated by deflecting their projectiles back at them in the same way as Roctos.

-In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', these enemies mostly appear around [[airship]]s, are always found in pairs, and have two varieties. The first type hides in a large barrel until approached, after which it will emerge and occasionally shoot a [[coconut]] (with a high-pitched squeak) or a [[fireball (obstacle)|fireball]] (with an even higher-pitched squeak) towards Mario. If he gets too far away from one, it will duck back into its barrel until he draws closer again. To defeat this type, Mario has to send back the [[coconut]]s they shoot by [[spin]]ning when the coconut gets close, making it deflect and hit the Rocto instead. The second type lacks a barrel, simply standing on the ground, and as such constantly shoots regardless of how far away Mario is, even when he is not even in their line of fire. This type only shoots fireballs, and as such can only be defeated with a thrown [[Koopa Shell]]. Roctos usually guard bridges that will be released upon their defeat. The leader of the Roctos, [[King Kaliente]], is fought twice as a boss.

-In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', only the barrel-hiding type reappears in the [[Shiverburn Galaxy]] where they act as the final enemy defense before facing [[Prince Pikante]], another boss Rocto. Similarly to the first game, they guard a pathway (of rock over lava) that Mario must use to progress. However, unlike the previous game, they are found in varyingly sized groups rather than in pairs. They also appear in the final galaxy, the [[Grandmaster Galaxy]], on the [[Grandmaster Galaxy#Platform Planets|Platform Planet]]; this is their only appearance where defeating them is not mandatory to progress forward. They still shoot coconuts and fireballs in this game.

-*The data for ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' contains a model for an [[list of Super Mario Galaxy pre-release and unused content|unused]] enemy resembling a Rocto with short suction cup-shaped arms under the filename "OtaJack."<ref>TCRF. [[tcrf:Super Mario Galaxy/Unused Models#OtaJack|Super Mario Galaxy/Unused Models § OtaJack]]. ''The Cutting Room Floor''. Retrieved February 20, 2020.</ref> This fits the theme of Rocto being "OtaRock," King Kaliente being "OtaKing," and the later Prince Pikante being "OtaPrince."
