'''Shlurps''' are purple {{wp|leech}}-like enemies in the [[Wii]] game ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', living in [[Gloam Valley]] and in the [[Flipside Pit of 100 Trials]] in rooms 13 and 15. These enemies also have a stronger variant called a [[Shlorp]].


These creatures are almost invincible thanks to their extremely hard skin. The only way to defeat these enemies is to get them to swallow the explosive [[Boomer (Super Paper Mario)|Boomer]], which may be inspired by the similarly armor-skinned [[zeldawiki:Dodongo|Dodongo]]s, a well-known ''Legend of Zelda'' species that is defeated by throwing bombs into their mouths; they most specifically resemble the [[zeldawiki:Dodongo Snakes|Dodongo Snakes]] in appearance. Despite having lots of legs, they move very slowly, and keep going in the same direction even when they hit a wall.
These strange creatures are almost invincible thanks to their extremely hard exoskeleton. The only way to defeat these enemies is to get them to swallow the explosive [[Boomer (Super Paper Mario)|Boomer]], which may be inspired by the similarly armor-skinned [[zeldawiki:Dodongo|Dodongo]]s, a well-known ''Legend of Zelda'' species that is defeated by throwing bombs into their mouths; they most specifically resemble the [[zeldawiki:Dodongo Snakes|Dodongo Snakes]] in appearance. Despite having lots of legs, they move very slowly, and keep going in the same direction, even when they hit a wall, which highlights their placid temper. Shlurps suck up and swallow anything they find in their way, including [[Mario]] and [[Peach]], although they will spit him out afterwards, dealing damage but not a fatality.
