'''Wiggler'''<ref>Hodgson, David S J, Bryan Stratton, and Stephen Stratton. ''Super Mario Sunshine'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Official Strategy Guide. Page 20.</ref> is a giant, green [[Wiggler]] who appears in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' as the boss of [[Gelato Beach]]. It sleeps on top of the glass case housing the [[Sand Bird]] egg, blocking sunlight and delaying its hatching. | |||
In ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', Wiggler appears in two missions in [[Gelato Beach]]: [[Mirror Madness! Tilt, Slam, Bam!]] and [[Wiggler Ahoy! Full Steam Ahead!]]. In the first mission where Wiggler appears, Mario has to correctly angle three mirrors, to hasten the hatching of the Sand Bird, by removing the [[Plungelo]]s found on the mirrors. Once all three mirrors are correctly angled, Wiggler falls off of the case, revealing a [[Shine Sprite]]. In the second mission, Mario has to fight an enraged Wiggler. It moves very quickly and can damage Mario by running into him. Mario can stun it by spraying [[Dune Bud]]s with water when Wiggler approaches them, flipping it onto its back, revealing a weak point on any one of its segments which needs to be [[Ground Pound]]ed to deal damage to Wiggler. After Wiggler has been hit three times, it turns into sand, revealing another Shine Sprite. | |||
As Mario fights Wiggler, it blows steam from its nose and makes sounds like a [[Wikipedia:steam locomotive|steam locomotive]]. | |||

The [[Wiggler Wagon]]s in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' found in [[Mushroom Bridge]] and [[Mushroom City]] bear resemblance to this Wiggler. | |||

== | ==Trivia== | ||
* | *Although other games, including ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', its [[Super Mario 64 DS|remake]], ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', and ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' possess bosses based on Wigglers, ''Super Mario Sunshine''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s Wiggler boss is the only one whose appearance greatly differs from that of a regular Wiggler. | ||
*When the player [[Ground Pound]]s Wiggler's body in ''Super Mario Sunshine'', the boss music speeds up once per hit. This does not happen with any other boss in the game. | |||
*Due to a glitch, if the player presses the {{button|gcn|Z}} button as soon as Wiggler is defeated and is beginning to turn into sand, the music will slow down even more than in normal gameplay.<ref>HiLeonardo.

*In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'', ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', [[Petey Piranha]], [[Mom Piranha]], and the [[Big Piranha Plant]]s, respectively, use some of Wiggler's sound clips. | *In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'', ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', [[Petey Piranha]], [[Mom Piranha]], and the [[Big Piranha Plant]]s, respectively, use some of Wiggler's sound clips. | ||
