A '''Scaredy Rat''' is a white rat creature that first appeared in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. They appear to have black sclera, red pupils, orange feet and huge buck teeth. They slightly resemble [[Little Mouser]]s. Their name is a pun on the term ''scaredy cat'', which is a childish term for a coward.

Scaredy Rats first appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' where they are only found in {{world-link|4|ghost|World 4-Ghost House (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}}. They are defeated the same way that [[Goomba]]s are. However, the difference between the two is that Scaredy Rats are troublesome and run quite fast. When [[Mario]] or a teammate approaches, they stop scuttling and start jumping in place. When the player leaves, the Scaredy Rats continue scuttling. If one is stomped, all nearby Scaredy Rats will run in panic. However, if running Scaredy Rats encounter a calm rat, the frightened rats will become calm as well.

Scaredy Rats reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]'', with the same features of ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''. They appear in the level [[Which-Way Labyrinth]], where in dark sections their eyes shine like a [[Swoop]]. They can also be scared away by [[Glowing Baby Yoshi]]'s light. They are one of the few enemies that do not reappear in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]''.

====''Super Mario Run''====
===''Mario Party 9''===
Scaredy Rats reappear in ''[[Super Mario Run]]'', only in the level [[Scaredy Rat Race]]. They behave identical to their appearance in previous platformers.
 
===''Mario Party'' series===
====''Mario Party 9''====
A Scaredy Rat appears in a Captain Event known as [[Boo's Horror Castle#Scaredy Rat Race|Scaredy Rat Race]] in the portal-like tower near the final area of the board [[Boo's Horror Castle]]. The Scaredy Rat steals some [[Mini Star]]s from each player and scuttles each turn some spaces ahead using a dice block. The current captain has to choose a player who must roll a [[Dice Block]]. The player who actually reaches the Scaredy Rat defeats it and receives all the Mini Stars the Scaredy Rat has stolen.

====''Mario Party: Island Tour''====
===''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''===
A Scaredy Rat can be seen on the [[Banzai Bill's Mad Mountain]] board in ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'' and in the [[minigame]]s [[Match Faker]] and [[Rat-a-tat Flat]], the latter of which involves players having to [[Ground Pound]] the Scaredy Rats that appear to earn points. Gold Scaredy Rats also appear in Rat-a-tat Flat and are worth three points each.

Scaredy Rats make their ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' debut in the [[Nintendo 3DS]] game ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'' as enemies in [[The Enigmansion]] of World 4. They maintain their appearance from ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''. In battle, Scaredy Rats can perform one of two attacks. Their main attack involves ramming into Mario. The Scaredy Rat will sometimes delay its attack in order to trick the player into blocking early. Their other attack has them trot towards Mario and steal one of his [[Sticker (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)|stickers]]. Mario can get his sticker back by damaging or defeating the Scaredy Rat before it flees with the sticker. Blocking this attack will prevent damage, but does not prevent the Scaredy Rat from stealing the sticker; instead, doing so ensures that a weaker sticker is stolen. If Mario has no stickers, or if the Scaredy Rat is currently carrying one, it will only use its ramming attack. In rare cases, a Scaredy Rat may begin to flee with a sticker, but suddenly turn around, giving Mario a chance to get it back.

====''Paper Mario: Color Splash''====
|moves=Jump (5)
Scaredy Rats return in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'' with the same appearance and behavior they had in ''Paper Mario: Sticker Star'' and can be fought in [[Marmalade Valley]], [[Dark Bloo Inn]] and [[Toad Trainworks]]. There is a [[Scaredy Rat 10-Stack]] in Toad Trainworks. They steal Battle Cards in this entry rather than stickers.

They maintain their appearance from ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''. In battle, Scaredy Rats can do two attacks. Their main attack is jumping on Mario. However, if a Scaredy Rat runs in place before attacking, it will steal one of Mario's [[Sticker (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)|stickers]]. Mario can get his sticker back by defeating a Scaredy Rat before it flees with the sticker. Blocking this attack does not prevent the Scaredy Rat from stealing the sticker.
====''Paper Mario: The Origami King''====
[[File:OrigamiScaredyRat.jpg|thumb|100px|An origami Scaredy Rat]]
Scaredy Rats make a return in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', with origami variants of them acting as enemies in [[Graffiti Underground]], [[Picnic Road]], [[Ninja Attraction]] and [[Shroom City (Paper Mario: The Origami King)|Shroom City]]. Similar to the [[Bandit]]s from the first two ''Paper Mario'' games, they now steal coins since neither stickers nor Battle Cards are present.
 
===''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''===
[[File:MLPJScaredyRat.png|frame|left]]
A Scaredy Rat sets off the plot of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'' by scaring Luigi into knocking over a [[Paper Mario book|book]] containing the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' universe. Later in the game, only [[Paper Scaredy Rat]]s appear as enemies. They appear only in the [[Twinsy Tropics Dungeon]].
 
===''Dr. Mario World''===
Scaredy Rats appear as assistants in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]''. Their stage mode effect increases the player's base score for every light-blue [[virus]] that are eliminated, with the base score increase being greater at higher levels, starting from 50 points at the first level to 200 points at the maximum level. In versus mode, their effect has a chance to change the color of the viruses to be of the same color after the opponent attack each time, which excludes attacks caused by clearing all viruses on their side.
