Ziggies are Rabbid enemies in Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle. They are the first enemies encountered in the game, and as such have basic stats. Ziggies are identifiable by their various styles of gun slings and small guns. They generally are not much of a threat compared to other enemies, but all variants except the Garden Ziggy can use a "reaction shot" technique that allows them to hit the heroes in motion (whether moving on their turn or being forced to move by a Super Effect or special technique). Along with Bucklers, Ziggies are also one of the only enemies to have a dash attack. Their name is taken from Ziggy Stardust, a character and stage persona created by English rock musician David Bowie, tying in with Garden Ziggies' glam rock-inspired outfits and makeup. The latter further references the character by depicting lightning bolts over the Rabbids' faces, nodding to a similar design that Bowie wears on the cover photo for his 1973 album Aladdin Sane, his last release before retiring Ziggy as a stage persona.

During the opening cutscene, one Ziggy is shown to be created from Spawny accidentally merging a Rabbid with a brush. Three of them are next seen using honey to stick Goombas together, which Rabbid Peach sees as "cute". After they notice Mario, Rabbid Luigi, and Rabbid Peach, they bring out their guns and slowly start moving back (while occasionally losing balance on their feet), with the last one turning around completely, and the introductory tagline appearing while it is running. Ziggies are the only characters whose introductory cutscene does not immediately end with the battle starting or the cutscene continuing, as the player can move around the area before the battle starts.

Variants[edit]

There are five Ziggy variants, one for each area.

  • Garden Ziggy: Encountered in Ancient Gardens, this Ziggy variant has a yellow mohawk, colorful stripes on its body, and 50 HP. Their slings are made of rope. In the tutorial battle, they have only 10 HP.
  • Sherbet Ziggy: Encountered in Sherbet Desert, this Ziggy has 75 HP. It wears fuzzy earmuffs on its head and cactus-themed bands on its arms and waist. Their slings are made of leather belts. They are the only Sherbet Desert enemy without a Super Effect.
  • Spooky Ziggy: Encountered in Spooky Trails, this 115 HP Ziggy appears to be undead, with a pale body, sunken eyes, and glowing blue pupils. Many have tattoos or markings on the backs of their heads resembling makeup used in Day of the Dead celebrations. Their slings are made of tattered red cloth. Their blasters can also inflict Ink.
  • Lava Ziggy: The final Ziggy variant is encountered in the Lava Pit, with a charred appearance, glowing orange eyes, a Bowser Jr. bandana worn on its back, and 175 HP. Their slings are made of metal chain links. Their attack can also inflict Bounce.
  • Tropical Ziggy: This Ziggy variant is encountered in the Donkey Kong Adventure DLC. These Ziggies can be seen with either of the following outfits. It can have long blue feather headdress, light blue face paint and just wearing a tropical bead sling. Or, it can be wearing a grass skirt with a yellow bra. They have 80 HP, and unlike the other Ziggy variants, these Ziggies can dash twice during their movement. Their blasters can also freeze the target.
