'''Twirlips''' are a species of enemy appearing in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Their name is a spoof off of tulip. At first glance, they appear as white bud shaped creatures with two beady eyes much like an onion but without the beady eyes. To attack, they turn into a pink flower with a yellow center and quickly spin around the area like a drill. They do this from time to time.

In their flower form, Twirlips can only be damaged by stomping on their heads. In their bud form, [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] can use any attack method to defeat them. [[Yoshi]] can also eat a Twirlip but only while it's in bud form. They appear in a few galaxies, most notably in the [[Spin-Dig Galaxy]]. They are also fought on some Bonus Planets.

Twirlips[1] are enemies in Super Mario Galaxy 2. Their name is a combination of "twirl" and "tulip," describing their motion and appearance. At first glance, they appear as white bud-shaped creatures that resemble onions with two beady eyes. To attack, a Twirlip turns into a pink flower with a yellow center and quickly spins around the area like a top. While twirling, a Twirlip can be damaged only by stomping on its head, which makes the Twirlip drop a coin. In a Twirlip's bud form, Mario or Luigi can use any attack method to defeat it, which makes the Twirlip drop three Star Bits unless stomped. Yoshi can also eat a Twirlip, but only while it is in bud form. Twirlips appear in only three galaxies in the game: Spin-Dig Galaxy, Flipsville Galaxy, and Starshine Beach Galaxy. When shot by a Star Bit from the Star Pointer, they get stunned in place for a moment. In their opened form, Twirlips can actually defeat another Twirlip when the latter is stopped by a Co-Star Luma and the two Twirlips collide.
