Found some pictures, and the [[Super Mario Encyclopedia]] treats them as the same enemy each other. (the book was originally released in Japan, so it might be considered as a normal Lakitu in Japan). Should it be merged? I think it should. --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 07:40, 4 January 2019 (EST)

:Even then, there is instances where enemies with unique names get called the same thing as another enemy,Β  such as how [[Toady|Toadies]] often get mistakenly called Magikoopas. While in this case a Lakitu in a Pipe is well, literally a Lakitu in a Pipe and Toadies are entirely different from regular Magikoopas, you could also consider merging [[Fishin' Lakitu]] with regular Lakitus if we were to merge variants of species that are only different from their parent species by being named and doing an activity, such as fishing. While the SME does consider them the same, we cannot cite the english SME due to it plagiarizing from this and other wikis, so unless we have proof that Lakitus in a Pipe are considered the same as Lakitus in the Japanese SME, I personally think that they should still be split, at least for now. {{User:Doomhiker/sig}} 08:42, 4 January 2019 (EST)
