'''Lakitu Kings''' are enemies found in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]''. They resemble a standard [[Lakitu]] with a gold crown, a gold shell and gold stars on their cloud. When [[Bowser]] gets into a fight with a [[Flifit]] or a bunch of Flifits, the Lakitu King might appear on the top screen. If Bowser inhales it using his Vacuum ability, [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] will be able to fight it. The Lakitu King will attack by throwing golden [[Spiny Egg]]s at the Mario Bros. They will also sometimes throw [[Coin]]s for them to collect. If the Lakitu King throws the item overhand, it will be bounce off the ground and above the Mario Bros. If the Mario Bros. do not defeat the Lakitu King within a few turns, it will fly off, causing Bowser to cough it up, and fly away. Another variant of the Lakitu King is the [[Glam Lakitu]].
