Enemies

Name	Description	Locations	Spoils	New
Goomba	Squat mushroom beings that rushdown Mario when he is in their line of sight. Goombas can be defeated with a single jump. Spinning or shooting them with Star Bits causes them to flip over and spin like a top. They can be kicked or stomped on in this state. Paragoombas and Jack O'Goombas become these if not fully defeated. The gold Gearmo asks Mario to lure one to her so she can keep it as a pet.	Sky Station Galaxy, Yoshi Star Galaxy, Spin-Dig Galaxy, Fluffy Bluff Galaxy, Flip-Swap Galaxy, Rightside Down Galaxy, Boulder Bowl Galaxy, Cosmic Cove Galaxy, Honeybloom Galaxy, Tall Trunk Galaxy, Cloudy Court Galaxy, Haunty Halls Galaxy, Freezy Flake Galaxy, Rolling Masterpiece Galaxy, Beat Block Galaxy, Bowser's Gravity Gauntlet, Boo Moon Galaxy, Upside Dizzy Galaxy, Throwback Galaxy, Battle Belt Galaxy, Flash Black Galaxy, Slimy Spring Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1 Template:Chart icon×3	—
Paragoomba ★	Winged Goombas. They fly back-and-forth in set trajectories. Spinning one causes its wings to fall off and reverts it back to a normal Goomba.	Sky Station Galaxy, Yoshi Star Galaxy, Spin-Dig Galaxy, Rightside Down Galaxy, Hightail Falls Galaxy, Cosmic Cove Galaxy, Tall Trunk Galaxy, Cloudy Court Galaxy, Chompworks Galaxy, Upside Dizzy Galaxy, Throwback Galaxy, Flash Black Galaxy, Slimy Spring Galaxy, Grandmaster Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1 Template:Chart icon×3	—
Jack O'Goomba	Slow-moving Goombas with Jack-o'-lanterns covering their heads. They periodically leave small blue flames that damage Mario on contact. Pumpkinhead Goombas can be defeated in one hit with a Ground Pound. Spinning them destroys the pumpkins and turns them into regular Goombas.	Haunty Halls Galaxy, Boo Moon Galaxy, Clockwork Ruins Galaxy, Battle Belt Galaxy, Flash Black Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	—
Mini Goomba	Little Goombas. Like normal-sized Goombas, they charge towards Mario if he is near. They can be defeated with a single spin.	Sky Station Galaxy, Bowser Jr.'s Fiery Flotilla, Cloudy Court Galaxy, Battle Belt Galaxy, Rolling Coaster Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	—
Giant Goomba	A giant Goomba. It can only be defeated with a spin and a kick. Big Paragoombas become Giant Goombas if they recover from being dazed.	Supermassive Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×7	—
Big Paragoomba	Giant Paragoombas that fly back-and-forth. Spinning into them leaves them upside-down and dazed, with their wings fallen off. Kicking them in this state defeats them. If left undisturbed, they right themselves and behave as Giant Goombas.	Supermassive Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×7	Template:Chart icon
Octoomba	Goomba-like octopus creatures. They sidestep back and forth along a set path and keep their eyes locked onto Mario when he is nearby. If in close proximity, they attempt to strike him with the hair-like protrusion on their heads. Octoombas can be defeated with a spin or a stomp.	Sky Station Galaxy, Yoshi Star Galaxy, Fluffy Bluff Galaxy, Flip-Swap Galaxy, Puzzle Plank Galaxy, Beat Block Galaxy, Flipsville Galaxy, Chompworks Galaxy, Honeyhop Galaxy, Shiverburn Galaxy, Melty Monster Galaxy, Clockwork Ruins Galaxy, Flash Black Galaxy, Bowser's Galaxy Generator, Stone Cyclone Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1 Template:Chart icon×3	—
Elite Octoomba	Strong Octoombas that fire two consecutive rocks from their siphon. Though they sidestep back-and-forth along set paths, they turn to face Mario as he moves. If the first rock misses, the second one may strike him if he does not keep moving.	Sky Station Galaxy, Fluffy Bluff Galaxy, Boulder Bowl Galaxy, Cloudy Court Galaxy, Honeyhop Galaxy, Shiverburn Galaxy, Clockwork Ruins Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1 Template:Chart icon×3	Template:Chart icon
Octoguy	Red Octoombas that shuffle backward from Mario when approached. They periodically stop to spit a rock at him and can be defeated with a spin or jump.	Boulder Bowl Galaxy, Honeyhop Galaxy, Shiverburn Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1 Template:Chart icon×3	—
Rocto	Stationary Octoroks that sit in barrels. They shoot coconuts and flaming rocks at Mario. The coconuts can be deflected back at them if spun against. Roctos are always found in pairs.	Shiverburn Galaxy, Grandmaster Galaxy	None	—
Small Chomp	Tiny Chomps that roll around in circles. Small Chomps cannot be damaged directly: they are only destroyed when struck by rubbery bulbs.	Sky Station Galaxy, Chompworks Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×3 Template:Chart icon×1	—
Chomp	Metal enemies that roll in a set trajectory. A Chomp breaks when they collide with a wall or another Chomp. There are diminishing returns with Chomps: if Mario stays in an area where Chomps are continuously breaking, they drop fewer Star Bits each time and eventually stop all together. They bark when in close proximity.	Flip-Swap Galaxy, Rightside Down Galaxy, Boulder Bowl Galaxy, Flipsville Galaxy, Chompworks Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×7	—
Gold Chomp	A rolling Chomp made of gold.	Chompworks Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	—
Homing Chomp	Chomps with crazed eyes. They home-in on Mario. Contact damages Mario. They can only be defeated by spinning rubbery bulb plants into them, or by knocking them into bottomless pits.	Rolling Masterpiece Galaxy, Slipsand Galaxy, Battle Belt Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×10	Template:Chart icon
Banzai Bill	Slow-moving missiles. Their line of trajectory is fixed in one direction, and they slowly rotate as they move.	Sky Station Galaxy, Bowser Jr.'s Fearsome Fleet, Fleet Glide Galaxy, Bowser's Galaxy Generator	None	—
Bullet Bill	Missiles fired from Bill Blasters. Bullet Bills normally fly in a straight line, but they change course and directly target Mario if he is within their proximity. Mario can lure Bullet Bills towards glass cases and fences in order to destroy them. Their eyes flash with red light and their bodies twirl when they lock onto Mario. Yoshi cannot swallow Bullet Bills, but he can hold them in his mouth and fire them. The Bullet Bill explodes and damages Mario if held in Yoshi's mouth for too long.	Bowser Jr.'s Fearsome Fleet, Fleet Glide Galaxy, Bowser Jr.'s Boom Bunker, Bowser's Galaxy Generator, Grandmaster Galaxy	None	—
Amp	Floating, smiling orbs. Amps discharge electricity and shock Mario on contact. They move in one direction, typically in a horizontal back-and-forth pattern.	Sky Station Galaxy, Spin-Dig Galaxy, Space Storm Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	—
Zap Ball	Large Amps. They are typically in pairs. Unlike normal-sized Amps, the big ones lack faces.	Space Storm Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	—
Cosmic Clone	Dark entities in the form of Mario. They appear in sections of galaxies and trail Mario, mimicking his every move and positioning. Crossing paths with a Cosmic Clone causes damage to Mario and makes the clone disappear. Cosmic Clones continuously emerge from a small rupture of shadow in an area. Completing a necessary objective (i.e. activating all Flipswitch Panels) in the area closes the rupture and defeats all of the clones at once.	Sky Station Galaxy, Spin-Dig Galaxy, Fluffy Bluff Galaxy, Puzzle Plank Galaxy, Cloudy Court Galaxy, Haunty Halls Galaxy, Chompworks Galaxy, Mario Squared Galaxy, Flip-Out Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×3	Template:Chart icon
Piranha Plant	Carnivorous plants that try to bite Mario when approached. They laugh if they land a hit. Piranha Plants can be defeated with a spin or a stomp, and can be stunned with a fired Star Bit. Sproutle Vines sometimes grow from where a Piranha Plant is defeated. They idly keep their heads raised skyward when unapproached.	Sky Station Galaxy, Yoshi Star Galaxy, Spin-Dig Galaxy, Fluffy Bluff Galaxy, Tall Trunk Galaxy, Honeyhop Galaxy, Throwback Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1 Template:Chart icon×3 Template:Chart icon×1	—
Super Piranha Plant ★	Giant Piranha Plants. They rest in giant pipes filled with soil. They burst from the soil in set intervals that can be timed.	Supermassive Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	—
Prickly Piranha Plant	A Spiny Piranha Plant with additional spines on its head. The spines damage Mario on contact and prevent its body from direct harm. Spinning a rubbery bulb plant into it defeats it. There is only one in the game.	Sky Station Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	Template:Chart icon
Spiny Piranha Plant	Giant Piranha Plants that slam their heads into the ground. Spinning one stuns it while jumping on its head defeats it.	Rightside Down Galaxy, Throwback Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×7	—
Prickly plant	Plants with needle-like flowers that damage Mario on contact. Destroying them without a power-up usually requires striking them with another object, such as a coconut or rubbery bulb. They can be eaten by Yoshi.	Yoshi Star Galaxy, Boulder Bowl Galaxy, Cosmic Cove Galaxy, Tall Trunk Galaxy, Cloudy Court Galaxy, Slipsand Galaxy, Melty Monster Galaxy, Boss Blitz Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×3 Template:Chart icon×1	—
Magikoopa	Robed Koopas that can teleport. They can summon small enemies or toss magical fireballs at Mario with their wand. Shooting one with a Star Bit does not leave it dazed, but it does make it stall.	Yoshi Star Galaxy, Bowser Jr.'s Fiery Flotilla, Bowser's Lava Lair, Bowser's Gravity Gauntlet, Slipsand Galaxy, Bowser's Galaxy Generator	Template:Chart icon×1	—
Smeech	Winged Poinks. They quickly fly away from Mario if approached by him. If approached by Yoshi, they pursue him with smacking lips and latch onto his mouth. This prevents Yoshi from using his tongue or eating fruits. Spinning while a Smeech is attached dislodge it from Yoshi's mouth and defeats it.	Yoshi Star Galaxy, Hightail Falls Galaxy, Haunty Halls Galaxy, Starshine Beach Galaxy, Sweet Mystery Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1 Template:Chart icon×3	Template:Chart icon
Flipbug	When Mario is in close proximity, Flipbugs try to fly away before tiring out and falling to the ground, flailing their legs. If spotted in his Bee form, they pursue him.	Yoshi Star Galaxy, Puzzle Plank Galaxy, Tall Trunk Galaxy, Honeyhop Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1 Template:Chart icon×3	—
Mandibug	Stink bug-like enemies. They charge towards Mario after making visual contact, snapping their jaws. They can be defeated with a Ground Pound. A Mandibug trembles if Mario stands on its back but it eventually shakes him off.	Puzzle Plank Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	—
Sprangler	Spiders hanging from silk. They sway back and forth in an attempt to strike Mario. Spinning into Spranglers leaves them stunned for Mario to defeat. They otherwise can be jumped on.	Yoshi Star Galaxy, Tall Trunk Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1 Template:Chart icon×3	—
Spoing	Stationary spiders that hop up and down. Spoings are stunned when shot by a Star Bit. Jumping on one defeats it. They laugh if they successfully strike Mario.	Tall Trunk Galaxy, Flip-Out Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1 Template:Chart icon×3	—
Lakitu ★	Cloud-riding Koopas. They closely follow Mario and toss Spiny Eggs at him. Yoshi can eat the cloud, leaving the Lakitu helplessly flailing on the ground. When in proximity, Lakitus emit a consecutive high-pitched ringing sound.	Yoshi Star Galaxy, Starshine Beach Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×3	—
Spiny ★	Stout Koopas with spikes on their carrapaces. The spikes protect them from being jumped on and damage Mario on contact. They charge towards him if he is in proximity. Yoshi cannot swallow Spinies, but he can shoot them out as projectile Spiny Eggs.	Yoshi Star Galaxy, Tall Trunk Galaxy, Starshine Beach Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	—
Spiny Egg ★	The retracted form of Spinies. They are tossed by Lakitus and spit out as projectiles by Yoshi. Direct contact damages Mario.	Yoshi Star Galaxy, Starshine Beach Galaxy	None	—
Digga	Drill enemies that tunnel through earth. Jumping on their backs or attacking them with a Spin Drill defeats them. Digga-Leg expels Diggas from its head during its boss fight.	Spin-Dig Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	Template:Chart icon
Twirlip	Spinning flower enemies. They periodically open their flowers and spin rapidly in circles. Twirlips can only be jumped on while they are twirling, and they can only be spun into when they are closed.	Spin-Dig Galaxy, Flipsville Galaxy, Starshine Beach Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1 Template:Chart icon×3	Template:Chart icon
Flaptack	Squat birds with a horn on their head. They idly flutter in place. When in proximity to Mario, they fly towards him, turn upside down, and slam themselves into the ground below in an attempt to strike him. They are temporarily stuck into the ground and can be defeated. Flaptacks sometimes are not within the player's field of view, but they can still be spotted by their large shadow they cast. Shooting a Flaptack dazes it and makes it fall to the ground.	Fluffy Bluff Galaxy, Cloudy Court Galaxy, Flash Black Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1 Template:Chart icon×3	Template:Chart icon
Bomp	Stones that shift in and out of walls. They do not damage Mario directly, but they are positioned to push him off of platforms and solid ground. The tops of their bodies can be walked on.	Fluffy Bluff Galaxy, Throwback Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	—
Thwomp	Angry-looking stones. They are suspended in mid-air but periodically slam down towards the ground below. Crushing Mario completely depletes his life meter. The tops and sides of their bodies can be used as platforms and walls, respectively.	Rightside Down Galaxy, Bowser Jr.'s Fiery Flotilla, Space Storm Galaxy, Fleet Glide Galaxy, Throwback Galaxy, Stone Cyclone Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	—
Big Thwomp ★	Enormous Thwomps. The pair found in the game are close enough to be wall jumped between.	Supermassive Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	—
Swaphopper	Insect creatures that hop from side-to-side. Their tops are protected by a spiked shell that damages Mario on contact, but their undersides are defenseless. Shifting the gravitational plane using gravity switches alters which side points upward, which is the only way Mario can gain access to their damageable undersides. While right-side up, a Swaphopper looks aggressive and slowly pursues Mario. When flipped over, it looks cowardly and tries to move away.	Rightside Down Galaxy, Upside Dizzy Galaxy, Battle Belt Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	Template:Chart icon
Goombeetle	Helmet-wearing Goombas that cannot be stomped. Spinning one flips it upside down, exposing its unprotected underside.	Bowser Jr.'s Fiery Flotilla, Beat Block Galaxy, Chompworks Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	—
Dry Bones	Undead Koopa Troopas. They chase down and tackle Mario on sight. If stomped on, spun, or hit with a shell, Dry Bones crumble into a pile of bones, but regenerate after a few seconds. Dry Bones are only truly defeated when lured into quicksand or lava.	Bowser Jr.'s Fiery Flotilla, Bowser's Lava Lair, Bowser's Gravity Gauntlet, Slipsand Galaxy, Bowser Jr.'s Boom Bunker, Bowser's Galaxy Generator	Template:Chart icon×3	—
Choppah	Helmeted creatures that hover in midair. They fly in set horizontal or vertical trajectories. Mario cannot defeat them himself and making contact damages him, but Yoshi can eat them. Shooting one with a Star Bit stuns it in-place for three seconds.	Honeybloom Galaxy, Sweet Mystery Galaxy, Honeyhop Galaxy, Flip-Out Galaxy, Grandmaster Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×3	Template:Chart icon
Fizzlit	Amorphous creatures that bounce around Mario. They periodically halt and flatten themselves into yellow pubbles which discharge electricity. They cannot be harmed in this state, and direct contact electrocutes Mario. Yoshi is forced back into his egg if he attempts to eat a Fizzlit in this state.	Cosmic Cove Galaxy, Bowser Jr.'s Fearsome Fleet, Space Storm Galaxy, Bowser Jr.'s Boom Bunker	Template:Chart icon×1 Template:Chart icon×3	Template:Chart icon
Flomp	Suspended stone platforms. They rapidly spin for one second in three second intervals. If Mario is on top of a Flomp when it spins, he falls through it. They appear in pairs or more.	Bowser's Lava Lair, Grandmaster Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	Template:Chart icon
Gummit	Creatures like the smackable moles in the Whac-A-Mole. They appear during The Chimp's Skating Challenge. During the challenge, they periodically pop out of holes in the ice. Mario accumulates points by skating into Gummits and kicking them.	Freezy Flake Galaxy, Shiverburn Galaxy	10 pts.	Template:Chart icon
Spiky Gummit	Gummits covered in spikes. Making contact does not damage Mario, but it causes knockback that costs Mario at least one second of time in The Chimp's Skating Challenge.	Freezy Flake Galaxy, Shiverburn Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	Template:Chart icon
Golden Gummit	Gold Gummits. They appear in fewer numbers and retreat down their holes faster than the other Gummits.	Freezy Flake Galaxy, Shiverburn Galaxy	50 pts.	Template:Chart icon
Kleptoad	Frogs that pop out of the ground indefinitely. They carry coins and Silver Stars in bubbles above their heads.	Hightail Falls Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1 Template:Chart icon×1	Template:Chart icon
Magmaargh	Enormous Blarggs submerged in lava. They idly lie deep in lava with only their eyes, nostrils, and ears exposed. When in proximity to Mario, they burst to the surface with their jaws open wide and slam their faces forward to strike him. Direct contact burns Mario. They can phase through solid platforms.	Fleet Glide Galaxy, Melty Monster Galaxy, Bowser's Galaxy Generator	Template:Chart icon	Template:Chart icon
Magmaw	Small Magmaarghs that endlessly shuffle through lava. They can pass through solid platforms.	Melty Monster Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	Template:Chart icon
Mattermouth	Disembodied skulls that chomp through matter. They leave a trail of empty space behind them that Mario can fall through, but it gradually reemerges. Jumping on a Mattermouth causes it to change direction.	Bowser's Lava Lair, Haunty Halls Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	Template:Chart icon
Mega Boo	Enormous Boos. They appear once Mario crosses a specific corridor and slowly follow him, flanked by Big Boos. They cannot be defeated.	Haunty Halls Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	Template:Chart icon
Octoboo	Ghostly Octoombas that hover in set paths. They appear in groups, usually hovering in a circular path, but in some instances they hover in continuous paths. Making direct contact damages Mario. Spinning into Octoombas makes them safely permiable for one second.	Haunty Halls Galaxy, Boo Moon Galaxy, Flash Black Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	Template:Chart icon
Pinhead	Stationary bowling pin creatures. Pinheads are skittish: they sit above trapdoors that they fall through when approached by Mario. They can only be defeated by Mario when he rolls into them in his Rock form. They typically sit in groups of six.	Boulder Bowl Galaxy, Melty Monster Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×3 100 pts.	Template:Chart icon
Pupdozer	Squat dinosaur creatures. Their backs are covered in spikes that protect them from harm and damages Mario on contact. Their bellies are unguarded: Ground-Pounding through a grate while a Pupdozer is above it defeats it.	Flipsville Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	Template:Chart icon
Rhomp	Rolling stone beings. A rolling Rhomp flattens Mario and completely depletes his life meter.	Slipsand Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	Template:Chart icon
Snoodle	Benthic creatures that look like the giant tube worm. They protrude from holes on the seafloor and extend their heads towards Mario to strike him. They are vulnerable to beacons of light from Green Shells, but they are defeatable through typical means as well (i.e. spin, or thrown projectile).	Cosmic Cove Galaxy, Slimy Spring Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×3	Template:Chart icon
Spindleburr	Variants of the rubbery bulb plant with protractible spines. When in proximity to Mario, their spines extend and they sling their bulbs towards him. Some Spindleburrs are rooted upside-down.	Honeybloom Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	Template:Chart icon
Spinecone	Slow-moving turbo snail enemies. They move in unilateral directions. Some can be found outside of water on ceilings and walls.	Starshine Beach Galaxy, Boo Moon Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	Template:Chart icon
Trapdragon	Hovering flowers which can be boarded like platforms. When idle, they look like broad, pink flowers. When Mario stands on one, a white rim protrudes from the edges of the flower and snaps shut after three seconds. Mario is damaged if he is on top of it when it closes.	Honeybloom Galaxy, Honeyhop Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	Template:Chart icon
Whimp	Diminutive Whomps. They appear in groups of three or five and rush down Mario. When close, they fling themselves face first to strike him. A successful strike damages Mario. They fall apart after attacking. The Whomp King summons them during his boss fight.	Throwback Galaxy	None	Template:Chart icon
Zap Nozzle	Suspended electroshock devices that discharge balls of electricity from their nozzles. The balls slowly trail after Mario and electrocute him on contact.	Space Storm Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	Template:Chart icon

Bob-omb	Walking bombs that look like wind-up toys. Bob-ombs actively pursue Mario until they explode.	Rolling Masterpiece Galaxy, Space Storm Galaxy, Rolling Coaster Galaxy	None	—
Boo	Ghost enemies. Boos pursue Mario when his back is turned towards them. If Mario looks directly at them, they shield their eyes and stop moving. Spinning shifts their position and forces them to phase through nearby walls, but they cannot be damaged this way. They are only weak to light – including the headlamp of the Toad Brigade Captain. Some Boos are found underwater. Mario can transform into one via the Boo Mushroom.	Haunty Halls Galaxy, Boo Moon Galaxy, Battle Belt Galaxy, Slimy Spring Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	—
Bomb Boo	Explosive Boos. Unlike normal Boos, Bomb Boos do not cower when Mario looks at them and move directly towards him on sight. Spinning near a Bomb Boo causes Mario to grab onto its tongue and swing it like a lasso. It detonates if it is swung into an object or wall. If Mario does not release the Bomb Boo, it is pulled in closer and damages him. Bomb Boos are conjured by Bouldergeist and can be used to destroy the boss's stone armor.	Boss Blitz Galaxy	None	—
Bowser Statue ★	Stone statues of Bowser. Most statues are inanimate objects that contain items, but a few have glowing eyes and shoot beams of energy that damage Mario on contact.	Bowser's Lava Lair, Boo Moon Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	—

Crabber (Blue)	Sidestepping crabs that scuttle away from Mario. Crabbers have hard shells that protect them from jumps and spins head-on, but their fleshy rears are exposed and can be struck. Blue Crabbers bury themselves underground in an attempt to escape and resurface shortly after.	Boulder Bowl Galaxy, Battle Belt Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	—
Crabber (Red)	Red Crabbers actively pursue Mario but move slowly. Yoshi cannot swallow red Crabbers, but he can spit out a projectile claw that works like a boomerang.	Boulder Bowl Galaxy, Starshine Beach Galaxy, Battle Belt Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×3 Template:Chart icon×1	—
Fuzzy ★	Black, furry creatures. They are obstacles that move along suspended treaded paths.	Honeybloom Galaxy, Flipsville Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×3	—

Hammer Bro ★	Helmeted Koopas that throw hammers. They toss three hammers in succession before hoping to a new position. Yoshi can swallow a hammer and spit it back as a projectile. Jumping on a Hammer Bro leaves it incapacitated and vulnerable to attack.	Bowser's Lava Lair, Bowser Jr.'s Fearsome Fleet, Bowser's Galaxy Generator, Grandmaster Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1 Template:Chart icon×3 Template:Chart icon×1	—
Boomerang Bro ★	Hammer Bro relatives that wield boomerangs. The boomerangs can be swallowed by Yoshi and spitted out as a projectile.	Bowser Jr.'s Boom Bunker, Bowser's Galaxy Generator, Grandmaster Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1 Template:Chart icon×3 Template:Chart icon×1	—
Jam-o'-War	A large Jammyfish that idly floats in place and electrocutes Mario if touched. The Jam-o'-War is defeated when it is hit by a shell twice. The first strike turns it green.	Cosmic Cove Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	—
Jammyfish	Jellyfish that swim in schools along a set path. They damage Mario on contact, but do not actively pursue him.	Cosmic Cove Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	—

Li'l Cinder	Floating fire enemies that burn Mario on contact. Spinning near them extinguishes their flame and leaves them vulnerable to being kicked. Extinguished Li'l Cinders hop towards the nearest pool of lava to reignite.	Bowser's Lava Lair, Freezy Flake Galaxy, Melty Monster Galaxy, Battle Belt Galaxy, Mario Squared Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	—
Meteor	Fiery space rocks. They rain from the sky.	Hightail Falls Galaxy, Shiverburn Galaxy	None	—

Mikey Mine	Naval mines that bob up and down on chains. Mikey Mines keep their eyes shut unless Mario is in close proximity. They regenerate after detonating.	Cosmic Cove Galaxy	None	—
Space Mine	Midair Mikey Mines. They are usually fixed in one spot, but some move along purple-colored streaks of light. Making contact with a Space Mine makes it explode, causing damage. They are destroyed when shot by a Star Bit.	Bowser Jr.'s Fearsome Fleet, Bowser Jr.'s Boom Bunker, Flash Black Galaxy, Slimy Spring Galaxy, Grandmaster Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×3	—

Slurple	Slurples latch onto Mario and gradually deplete his life meter. Spinning shakes them off and defeats them.	Puzzle Plank Galaxy, Upside Dizzy Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	—
Spring Vault	Spring-like Pulse Beams. They can be used as springs after jumping on their head.	Space Storm Galaxy	None	—
Topman	Spinning top enemies. Spiky Topmen do not directly harm Mario, but they can push him into hazards or off of a platform. The spike on their heads protects them from being stomped on and damage Mario on contact. Spiky Topmen can only be defeated if knocked into an electric rail or off the side of a platform. The silver Gearmo asks Mario to lure her one so she can keep it as a pet.	Space Storm Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	—
Spring Topman	Green Topmen that cause Mario to spin out of control if they collide with him. Jumping on one's head leaves it stunned, allowing Mario to jump on it again to reach great heights.	Space Storm Galaxy	None	—
Topmini	Tiny Topmen that are defeated when spun into. Topminis are incapable of damaging Mario and can only push him around. There are small portals that continuously produce Topminis.	Space Storm Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×1	—
Tox Box	Giant boxes made out of stone. They roll around in set trajectories. One of their sides is open and can be safely stood under. All other sides crush Mario. Tox Boxes are the same width of the paths they travel, making them difficult to avoid.	Stone Cyclone Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	—
Tracks	Sandal-wearing creatures. They are invisible while moving, but materialize when they stand still. Tracks are harmless, but they can be defeated to recover a large number of Star Bits. Their movement can be tracked by following their footsteps.	Starshine Beach Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×20	—
Undergrunt	Burrowing Montys. They leave trails of disturbed dirt as they burrow through the ground. Undergrunts can be defeated by ground-pounding nearby earth. This forces them to the surface, leaving them dazed and vulnerable to being spun. Their spiked helmets damage Mario if he tries to jump on them. The helmets protrude from the ground as the Undergrunts burrow, allowing the player to track their movements.	Battle Belt Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×3	—
Undergrunt Gunner ★	Blue Undergrunts piloting hovercrafts. Each hovercraft is equipped with Bill Blaster. They can only be defeated if struck by Bullet Bills themselves.	Bowser Jr.'s Fearsome Fleet, Fleet Glide Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×5	—

Fire Shooter	Mounted flamethrowers that shoot streams of fire. The flames recede in set intervals that can be timed.	Bowser's Galaxy Generator	Template:Chart icon	—
Whomp ★	Walking stone walls similar to nurikabe. When Mario is before them, they quicken their pace and slam down face first to crush him. A successful strike completely depletes Mario's life meter, costing him a life. Their attack leaves them lying on the ground and vulnerable for a few seconds. Their weak point is a cylindrical button with a ground-pound symbol on it.	Bowser's Lava Lair, Bowser's Gravity Gauntlet, Throwback Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×7	—
Wiggler	Caterpillars that walk around in circles. Performing a Ground Pound on nearby earth or directly spinning one flips a Wiggler onto its back. If the incapacitated Wiggler is not defeated within five seconds, it becomes angry and uprights itself. An enraged Wiggler is much faster and cannot be harmed. It calms down after a few seconds. Wigglers can be defeated in a single hit by Ground Pounding them.	Puzzle Plank Galaxy, Tall Trunk Galaxy, Throwback Galaxy	Template:Chart icon×7	—
Big Wiggler ★	Giant Wigglers that are too large to harm. Some are in a permanent state of anger that makes them faster and harder to avoid.	Supermassive Galaxy	Template:Chart icon	—
