He lives in a sinkhole, where he viciously guards his territory by throwing objects at [[Mario]]. His name is likely a portmanteau of the words "squid" and "lizard". Squizzard's theme is just percussion with very simple instruments over it. However, when Mario gets a [[Fire Flower]], the music becomes a unique Fire Flower theme that can only be heard in this battle, complete with synths, cuica and more percussion. | ||

He has round eyes with brown eyebrows and a Mohawk-like rock attached to his head. His arms have thick wrists and slightly smaller hands, with three fingers on each hand and, on each finger, brown, sharp nails. His body shape somewhat resembles a [[Magmaargh]]; due to dwelling in the sand, he also resembles the later [[Sandmaargh]]. | ||

Squizzard mainly attacks by throwing spherical projectiles at Mario. When Mario first lands on the planet the battle will not start until Mario gets close to the battlefield's center. Once Mario does this, Squizzard pops out and will begin to throw rocks at Mario. After several rocks have been thrown, he will open his mouth. To damage him, Mario must grab a [[Fire Flower]] and toss a fireball in his mouth, stunning him. Mario must then toss four more fireballs into Squizzard's mouth to damage him once. | Squizzard mainly attacks by throwing spherical projectiles at Mario.

He may occasionally toss yellow spiky spheres that will release a [[Coin]] when they are destroyed. Mario can take advantage of this to recover any injuries he may have received. Mario will need to repeat his previous tactics to damage the sandy monster. | ||

Squizzard will once again change tactics - he will toss two large bombs at the plumber. Mario will need to dodge until Squizzard opens his mouth, which he does shortly after he tosses his bombs.
