    Why does it Look Different?[edit]

    Why are the two pics different? They could possibly be different enemies.Knife (talk)

    One is a screenshot of a low-quality video of Super Mario Galaxy at E3. The other is a high-quality screenshot of a newer Super Mario Galaxy. The new pic I uploaded looks a lot like the other. Parayoshiicon.jpgPara Yoshi Wahoo!Parayoshiicon.jpg 09:27, 1 December 2006 (EST)

    Infobox pic?[edit]

    I don't know, it just seems like the picture should just be up top, in the infobox. Anyone violently disagree??--MetalYoshi 01:55, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

    Scuttlebug?[edit]

    Seems like its species was decided just based on that it has suction cup legs and resembles a spider. Pider and Arantula also fit that criteria, so I think the species section should be removed. 69.250.130.180 21:24, 12 August 2016 (EDT)
