In the offical PRIMA game guide for [[Super Mario Galaxy]] and [[Super Mario Galaxy 2|it's sequel]] these enemies were listed as "Undergrunts". Not "Monty Mole". Not "some kind of mole speicies", Undergrunt. Undergrunt Gunners have their own page. So why don't Undergrunts?

It turns out that the moles introduced in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' have a unique Japanese name as well: {{file link|MLRPG NOG Presenter.png|''Presenters'' (「プレゼンター」)}}. Considering their peculiar appearance, name and role in the games, should we split them from Monty Moles?--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 19:42, March 29, 2019 (EDT)

Should the Super Mario Sunshine Monty Moles be considered notable members to Monty Moles and getting their own page (Like Monty Tank). Or should they stay as is and just be on the Monty Mole page.

Some people, say that the moles in Warioware Touched! are Monty Moles. So I made this to see how many people agree or disagree on this.

Monty Mole’s encyclopedia entry in Mario Party Superstars says that they appeared in Mario Party 4. It says it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJM9kVvVOlI. Does anyone have info for if Monty Mole appeared in Mario Party 4 or not? [[User:MontyMoleLoreMaster|MontyMoleLoreMaster]] ([[User talk:MontyMoleLoreMaster|talk]]) 18:34, October 28, 2021 (EDT)

:Good question, I have an [[Talk:Snufit#Reopening a can of worms + Yurei Mucho name source.|interest]] in knowing too. From the look of things, this is either a mistake or an obscure cameo like the Swoop in ''Mario Party 3''. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 09:41, October 29, 2021 (EDT)
Try looking through every board or something that shows descriptions of characters. That might be where Monty Mole is. [[User:MontyMoleLoreMaster|MontyMoleLoreMaster]] ([[User talk:MontyMoleLoreMaster|talk]]) 20:01, October 29, 2021 (EDT)
I still can’t find info on Monty Mole being in Mario Party 4. Do you guys think it is a error or a very obscure cameo? Also should I make a purposel for this? [[User:MontyMoleLoreMaster|MontyMoleLoreMaster]] ([[User talk:MontyMoleLoreMaster|talk]]) 12:37, October 31, 2021 (EDT)
:There's nothing to even make a proposal on, either Monty Mole appears somewhere in Mario Party 4 or it's a mistake in Superstars. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 13:04, October 31, 2021 (EDT)
My best guess is that Monty Mole either had a name drop in a Minigame or bio somewhere, or they appear somewhere in a board. What do you guys think? [[User:MontyMoleLoreMaster|MontyMoleLoreMaster]] ([[User talk:MontyMoleLoreMaster|talk]]) 13:33, October 31, 2021 (EDT)
:You know, longplay videos of the game are available on YouTube. If you really want to find out, you can watch those videos. Or, take our word for it. {{User:Ray Trace/sig}} 13:55, October 31, 2021 (EDT)
I'm pretty sure something like that would have already been covered on the article by now if it was true. {{User:Swallow/sig}} 14:25, October 31, 2021 (EDT)
Well we did miss games like Mario is Missing!, Mario and Sonic at the 2012 London Olympic Games, Game & Watch Gallery 1 & 2, etc. So maybe it could have been a very obscure cameo we have never seen before. Should Mario Party 4 at least be put into the Trivia page since it is at least somewhat noteworthy to mention? [[User:MontyMoleLoreMaster|MontyMoleLoreMaster]] ([[User talk:MontyMoleLoreMaster|talk]]) 14:53, October 31, 2021 (EDT)
:I'd say a brief mention in the Superstars section is enough for now unless we do find out for sure. {{User:Swallow/sig}} 14:57, October 31, 2021 (EDT)
== Choppah ==
Choppah’s German name calls them Heli-Monty which is similar to Monty Mole (same with Undergrunt Gunner having the exact same German name as Monty Mole in Super Mario Galaxy 2 for some reason). What should we do about this? Do you think this was just a coincidence or mistranslation,  or are they actually related to Monty Mole? (a proposal can be made here to discuss this further). (also I personally think that Choppah and Undergrunt Gunner are unrelated to Monty Mole but I would like to hear what you guys think).

== Masato Mizuta ==
So I believe that Masato Mizuta is the current voice actor for Monty Mole, but what was the first game where they voiced Monty Mole (I don’t actually know)? [[User:MontyMoleLoreMaster|MontyMoleLoreMaster]] ([[User talk:MontyMoleLoreMaster|talk]]) 01:14, November 15, 2021 (EST)
== 4koma Manga Formatting ==
Should 4koma manga be formatted for each strip being spaced out or all strips in the volume being in one section like with other Mario Manga sections? [[User:MontyMoleLoreMaster|MontyMoleLoreMaster]] ([[User talk:MontyMoleLoreMaster|talk]]) 22:34, December 7, 2021 (EST)
:Pages that are too verbose are not useful, most readers will just skip the walls of text. If you can summarize the topic of each 4koma in one sentence it's better, in most cases you can't properly describe the usual 4koma joke through descriptions anyway.--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 07:20, December 8, 2021 (EST)
== Mario Sunshine Monty Mole (again) ==
So the Prima Guide and Bradygames guide suggests that both the Noki Bay and Pinna Park Monty Moles are the same character. Does this mean that they are the same character? If so, does this mean they could possibly get their own page? [[User:MontyMoleLoreMaster|MontyMoleLoreMaster]] ([[User talk:MontyMoleLoreMaster|talk]]) 11:41, December 10, 2021 (EST)
:The problem is that said claim doesn't have particularly solid ground, [https://www.nintendo.co.jp/character/mario/archives/sunshine/ with the Monty Mole not having a unique name in Japanese]. Since ''Super Mario Sunshine'' has those particular designs and roles, the two might even be meant to be the standard Monty Moles of the game rather than a peculiar individual.--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 22:00, December 10, 2021 (EST)
::Also the Prima Guide says that the Monty Mole brought the cannon with him, yet in-game it is stated that they stole it (at least for Pinna Park). So did they bring a cannon or steal one? This also applies to the Noki Bay one to. And when I was referring to the Monty Mole being considered a character for both of their fights, I mean that the Prima Guide says "Combat is the same as the last time you faced him", suggesting that this is the same Monty Mole from Pinna Park. The Bradygames guidebook has a section titled "Chorobe is back", which suggest that the Monty Mole in Pinna Park has returned. This could also make since for them being their own cannon in Noki Bay. Anyways, what do you think about this, and could this mean that this Monty Mole could get their own page as a notable member? [[User:MontyMoleLoreMaster|MontyMoleLoreMaster]] ([[User talk:MontyMoleLoreMaster|talk]]) 20:27, December 13, 2021 (EST)
:::In the case of ''Super Mario Sunshine'', the Nintendo Power guide has the priority, if it doesn't agree in this point, we can at best leave a mention in the section that the two English guides state that. At the moment I can't check the Nintendo Official Guidebook to see if it stated something on this aspect.--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 07:21, December 14, 2021 (EST)
== Ghost Monty Moles and Monty Mole king ==
If I made a page for Ghost Monty Mole, should I merge the volume 4 and volume 55 ones as the same type of Ghost Monty Mole? Also, is it ok to say an implied character like the Monty Mole king to be a notable member of the Monty Mole species (like Watt’s Mother with Lil Sparky)? [[User:MontyMoleLoreMaster|MontyMoleLoreMaster]] ([[User talk:MontyMoleLoreMaster|talk]]) 12:53, December 11, 2021 (EST)
== Tetris 99 ==
So where was Monty Mole's appearance in Tetris 99? Was it reused artwork from Mario Party Superstars? If so, please send a screenshot. [[User:MontyMoleLoreMaster|MontyMoleLoreMaster]] ([[User talk:MontyMoleLoreMaster|talk]]) 14:35, December 14, 2021 (EST)
Nevermind, the Monty Mole burrow can be seen on the screenshot they took. [[User:MontyMoleLoreMaster|MontyMoleLoreMaster]] ([[User talk:MontyMoleLoreMaster|talk]]) 14:42, December 14, 2021 (EST)
== Why is it a rocky Whrench variant? ==
Someone put ->variant_of rocky wrench [[Special:Contributions/148.255.234.235|148.255.234.235]] 12:26, June 16, 2024 (EDT)
:Because Monty Mole is based on Rocky Wrench? [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 13:35, June 16, 2024 (EDT)
::It was agreed from [[Talk:Rocky Wrench#The return - treat Monty Mole as derivative of Rocky Wrench|this proposal]]. {{User:Nightwicked Bowser/sig}} 13:42, June 16, 2024 (EDT)
:::Seeing confusion again.[https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Monty_Mole&diff=4383413&oldid=4382909] Those proposal changes ''should'' be documented on this talk page as well. ''<sub>grumble grumble</sub> we need policy on this''. {{User:Mario/sig}} 15:14, October 4, 2024 (EDT)
