This enemy is never been in a game with mario {{Unsigned|0k T0ad}}

I'd assume it's because it's a variation of a ''Mario series'' enemy. Thwomps originate from the ''Mario series'' and while I've never played ''Link's Awakening'' in any form, I do know that it takes a lot of enemy inspiration from the ''Mario series'', so it's more than likely that this enemy is meant to be a spin-off from Thwomps themselves, despite not being from a ''Mario'' game. {{User:Tails777/sig}}
:This is far from the only case where the Zelda franchise has done this -- [[zeldawiki:Manhandla|Manhandla]] is established as a Piranha Plant variant, for one, and its only presence on this wiki is a brief reference on the Piranha Plant page. Mega Thwomp should definitely be the same way. [[Special:Contributions/73.171.36.107|73.171.36.107]] 20:51, August 11, 2023 (EDT)
::Manhandla just hasn't been split yet. Thwomps is Thwomps, no matter what game they are in. And the Zelda games have a whole slew of Thwomps in them, not just this, and the previous system of covering them all on the main Thwomp page was awkward.

:::That's ridiculous. This is Super Mario Wiki, not Thwomp Wiki. Let Zelda Wiki handle their whole slew of Thwomps.
:::Was this a proposal? I can't fathom why it would be decided that this is within the scope of MarioWiki. [[Special:Contributions/73.171.36.107|73.171.36.107]] 19:25, August 13, 2023 (EDT)
::::I think the better solution for this article is to just merge its info into the Thwomp article, the main Thwomp article already does discuss this and I think that coverage is good enough. {{User:Ray Trace/sig}} 19:31, August 13, 2023 (EDT)
::::It's within the scope of the wiki because it's a literal derivative of a Mario enemy. {{User:Koopa con Carne/Sig}} 19:42, August 13, 2023 (EDT)
::::For the record, it's covered by [[MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive/58#Determine The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening and its reissues as a guest appearance and create an article covering all three versions and/or its Mario-related subjects|this proposal]].
