'''Whimps'''<ref>[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/character/mario/archives/galaxy2/?lang=en English ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' entry on the official Mario Portal]. ''nintendo.co.jp''. Retrieved August 13, 2022. ([https://archive.ph/2UaOd Archived] August 12, 2022, 23:39:46 UTC via archive.today.)</ref> are miniature [[Whomp]]s that appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', serving a similar role to them as [[Thwimp]]s do to [[Thwomp]]s. Unlike normal Whomps, they only have one tooth; their faces are also flatter, their bodies are less rectangular, and they have square, arm-less hands. They only appear in the [[Throwback Galaxy]] mission [[Return of the Whomp King]], where they help the [[Whomp King]] in his battle against the player.
'''Whimps'''<ref>{{cite|language=en|url=www.nintendo.co.jp/character/mario/archives/galaxy2/?lang=en|title=English ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' entry on the official Mario Portal|publisher=nintendo.co.jp|accessdate=August 13, 2022|archive=archive.is/2022.08.12-233946/https://www.nintendo.co.jp/character/mario/archives/galaxy2/?lang=en}}</ref> are [[list of enemies|enemies]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Their name is a portmanteau of "[[Whomp]]" and "wimp." They are miniature Whomps that serve a similar role to them as [[Thwimp]]s do to [[Thwomp]]s. Unlike normal Whomps, they have only one tooth; their faces are also flatter, their bodies are less rectangular, and they have cubed forearms. They appear in the [[Throwback Galaxy]] mission [[Return of the Whomp King]] only, assisting the [[Whomp King]] in his battle against the player. In the second and third phases of the battle, the Whomp King stomps a foot to make three (five in the third phase) Whimps break off from the ground. After that, the Whimps instantly start chasing after the player. Once they get close enough, they jump and land flat on their faces, attempting to crush [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]]. All Whimps disappear when the Whomp King tries to crush the player. Whimps are more fragile and less damaging than regular Whomps, taking only a point of the player's health if they land on Mario or Luigi. They also disintegrate after performing an attack, regardless of if they are successful. The player can knock back a Whimp by doing a [[spin]], or defeat it by performing a [[jump]] or [[Ground Pound]].
