- “Yar! You'll make a tasty treat!”
- —Clawgrip, Super Mario Advance
Clawgrip, also known as Clawglip, is a giant crab and a boss from Super Mario Bros. 2.
Fought in World 5-3, Clawgrip would attack players by using his claws to throws boulders at them; in order to injure Clawgrip, these boulders would need to be caught by the player's character and thrown back at Clawgrip. After being hit repeatedly, Clawgrip would be defeated.
In Super Mario Advance, Clawgrip, instead of being a giant crab at the beggining of the battle against him, is simply a small Sidestepper-like crab. Clawgrip is grown to his giant size when he is engulfed by several bubbles which resemble the ones Wart is capable of spitting; once at this size, Clawgrip, with a pirate-like accent, will exclaim "Yar! You'll make a tasty treat!" and begin to throw boulders.
Appearances in Other Media
Clawgrip made few, rare appearances in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!, where he, along with Mouser, Fryguy and Tryclyde, was a minion of King Koopa instead of Wart.
Oddly, several Clawgrips can be seen amoung the monsters antagonizing Mario in the Nintendo Comics System issue "The Fish That Should've Gotten Away".
Trivia
- In Doki Doki Panic, Clawgrip did not exist and his place as a boss was filled in by a third, albino Mouser; But in the process of converting the Doki Doki Panic to Super Mario Bros. 2 for North American distribution, the programmers added Clawgrip, as this Mouser was percieved as too powerful.
