| | Splounders will either move side to side or remain stationary. They can be defeated by almost any attack, even by just coming in contact with them. They do not directly harm the player on contact, but will throw Plessie off course if bumped into. Jumping on a Splounder can provide a very decent bounce, and can sometimes even lead to Plessie reaching previously inaccessible areas. |

| In ''Super Mario 3D World'', Splounders are present in every course that involves Plessie, with the exception of [[Deepwater Dungeon]]. They either move from side to side or remain stationary. They can be defeated by almost any attack, even by just coming in contact with them. They do not directly harm the player on contact, but they may throw Plessie off-course if bumped into. [[Jump]]ing on a Splounder can provide a very decent bounce, and it can sometimes even lead to Plessie reaching previously inaccessible areas.

| In the ''[[Bowser's Fury]]'' campaign of the game's [[Nintendo Switch]] port, ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'', regional, cat-like variants of Splounders appear near the Wasteland [[Giga Bell]], which are now possible for [[Mario]] to encounter without riding Plessie. Splounders cannot be defeated by a jump or [[Ground Pound]] and hurt Mario on contact if he is not riding Plessie. While [[boomerang]]s thrown by using the [[Boomerang Flower]] do harm Splounders, [[fireball]]s thrown by using the [[Fire Flower]] simply phase through them. | | In the ''Bowser's Fury'' campaign of ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'', regional, cat-like variants of Splounders appear near the Wasteland [[Giga Bell]], which are now possible for Mario to encounter without riding Plessie.
