'''Undergrunts'''<ref>{{cite|author=Browne, Catherine|title=''Super Mario Galaxy 2: PRIMA Official Game Guide''|location=Roseville|publisher=Random House Inc|date=May 23, 2010|page=30|isbn=978-0-30746-907-6}}</ref> are [[List of enemies|enemies]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. These large moles appear to be militaristic [[Monty]]s: Under''grunt'' refers to a low rank, while [[Major Burrows|''Major'' Burrows]] and [[Undergrunt Gunner|Undergrunt ''Gunners'']] also use military terms in their names. They slightly resemble early depictions of [[Monty Mole]]s due to their light-colored cheeks and rounded snouts, but have large eyes, toothy grins, and yellow camo-plated helmets, the last of which is the only thing of them visible while they dig.
'''Undergrunts''' are mole-like creatures that appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''.

In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', Undergrunts appear in [[Gusty Garden Galaxy]] in the mission [[The Dirty Tricks of Major Burrows]] as uncommon enemies on two planets. Even though the Undergrunts' helmets lack spikes on the top (though they do have spikes on the sides), [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] cannot safely jump on them. However, Undergrunts can be defeated by [[Ground Pound]]ing near them, then [[spin]]ning them after they have popped out. They give a [[coin]] when defeated. Undergrunts also appear in [[Gold Leaf Galaxy]].
In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', Undergrunts appear in [[Gusty Garden Galaxy]] in the mission, "The Dirty Tricks of Major Burrows" as uncommon enemies on two planets. Mario cannot do anything to the Undergrunts while they are tunneling underground. But defeat them by [[ground pound]]ing the ground close for them to pop out. Then Mario must [[Spinning|spin]] the Undergrunts while they're still out of the ground. They give a [[Coin]] when defeated. They also appear in the [[Gold Leaf Galaxy]].
 
Blue Undergrunts on a cannon, called [[Undergrunt Gunner]]s, appear in the Gold Leaf Galaxy, the [[Deep Dark Galaxy]] and the [[Toy Time Galaxy]].


At the end of Gusty Garden Galaxy, there is the boss of this galaxy, [[Major Burrows]], who is the leader of the Undergrunts and can be defeated in almost the same way.

Only two normal Undergrunts appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' on the Undergrunt Planet in [[Battle Belt Galaxy]]. They are defeated the same way as in the previous game. However, they give three [[Star Bit]]s instead of a coin when defeated. Undergrunt Gunners have now become a much more common enemy species.

==Appearance==
<gallery>
An Undergrunt's appearance is similar to most mole like characters ([[Monty Mole]]s, [[Rocky Wrench|Rocky Wrenches]] etc.). They have dark brown fur, and light brown bellies, noses, and cheeks. Undergrunts also have yellow spiked helmets preventing the player from stomping or spinning the mole. This is the only indication of an undergrunt beside the fact that they leave a dirt trail behind when they tunnel in the ground.
