'''Gargantua Blarggs''' are massive [[Blargg]]s that reside in [[lava]]. They first appear in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' along with their blue, [[water]]-dwelling counterparts, [[Nep-Enut]]s.

In the [[Yoshi's Island (series)|''Yoshi's Island'' series]], Gargantua Blarggs have maintained a consistent behavior. When a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] approaches, they attempt to block [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]'s path by rising from the lava as he approaches. To pass by a Gargantua Blargg, Yoshi must throw an [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]] into its mouth. The Gargantua Blargg will then sink into the lava, allowing Yoshi to continue past it. However, it re-emerges after a few seconds. Unlike the smaller [[Blargg (small)|Red Blargg]], Gargantua Blarggs cannot be defeated with an [[Anywhere POW]]. In ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', Gargantua Blarggs only appear in [[Gilbert the Gooey's Castle]], but the game introduces a much taller [[Gargantua Blargg (tall)|variant of the same name]] that can destroy dense rocks. In ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', Gargantua Blarggs only appear in two levels, [[Gargantua Blargg Attacks!]] and [[Hotfoot Hurdle]].

'''Gargantua Blarggs''' are massive [[Blargg]]s which resemble [[Nep-Enut]]s that reside in lava in the game ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' (in which they are called Blarggs), and ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''. These huge creatures attempt to block [[Yoshi|Yoshi's]] path by rising from the lava as the dinosaur approaches. To pass by a Gargantua Blargg, Yoshi must throw an [[Yoshi Egg|egg]] at the monster's mouth. The fire creature will then sink into the lava, allowing Yoshi to continue his journey. However, they reappear after a few seconds. Also, unlike regular Blarggs in ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'', Gargantua Blarggs could not be defeated with [[POW Block]]s.

[[File:Gargantua Blargg YWW.jpg|thumb|150px|Yoshi outruns a Gargantua Blargg in ''Yoshi's Woolly World'']]
In ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' and ''[[Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', Gargantua Blarggs are orange scarves bending to keep the outline of a Gargantua Blargg. The scarf is further held up by a metal rod, bent in the Blargg's face area. They lack fangs in this game. Gargantua Blarggs usually chase Yoshi around, impeding him greatly due to their size and fire damage. They accelerate as they move, but they can only turn when at a complete stop, meaning they can chase Yoshi from long distances but take a while to turn around if they miss. Gargantua Blarggs can pass through semisolid platforms, but stop at solid terrain. Hitting one with a [[yarn ball]], watermelon seeds from a [[watermelon]] or with fire breath from an [[fire watermelon]] forces it backward a little. It takes three yarn balls, a large number of watermelon seeds, or ice breath from an [[Ice watermelon]] to make the Gargantua Blargg hide back in the lava temporarily. They appear in the levels [[Lava Scarves and Red-Hot Blarggs]], [[King Bowser's Castle (Yoshi's Woolly World)|King Bowser's Castle]], and  [[Skeleton Goonies' Lava Lair]], though King Bowser's Castle only has one Gargantua Blargg in its red room. In Skeleton Goonies' Lava Lair, Gargantua Blarggs only charge straight ahead and do not turn around. Given the lack of terrain and deadly lava below, they serve as extremely tall obstacles that must be surmounted by jumping from the [[Skeleton Goonie]]s.

Gargantua Blarggs reappear in ''[[Yoshi's Crafted World]]'', in the level [[Poochy's Magma Run]]. They are made of bubbled slime and have the same behavior as in the ''Yoshi's Island'' games. When a Gargantua Blargg is hit by Yoshi's egg, it spins sinking down. There is also a costume and a craft based on Gargantua Blarggs.

In ''Yoshi's Island DS'', they are called '''Super Big Blarggs''' instead. Another sub-species of these Blarggs called [[Crusher Blargg]]s appear as well. These Blarggs are much taller than the Super Big Blarggs, and they can destroy dense rocks.

—Gargantua Blargg, Tetris Attack

Gargantua Blarggs are massive Blarggs that reside in lava. They first appear in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island along with their blue, water-dwelling counterparts, Nep-Enuts.

History[edit]

Yoshi's Island series[edit]

A Gargantua Blargg, from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.
A Gargantua Blargg, as it appears in Yoshi's Island

In the Yoshi's Island series, Gargantua Blarggs have maintained a consistent behavior. When a Yoshi approaches, they attempt to block Yoshi's path by rising from the lava as he approaches. To pass by a Gargantua Blargg, Yoshi must throw an egg into its mouth. The Gargantua Blargg will then sink into the lava, allowing Yoshi to continue past it. However, it re-emerges after a few seconds. Unlike the smaller Red Blargg, Gargantua Blarggs cannot be defeated with an Anywhere POW. In Yoshi's Island DS, Gargantua Blarggs only appear in Gilbert the Gooey's Castle, but the game introduces a much taller variant of the same name that can destroy dense rocks. In Yoshi's New Island, Gargantua Blarggs only appear in two levels, Gargantua Blargg Attacks! and Hotfoot Hurdle.

Tetris Attack[edit]

In the game Tetris Attack, a Gargantua Blargg appears as a ruler of the "Lava World", being allied with Flamer Guy. In here, as many other old enemies of Yoshi, was shown as a friend of Yoshi, being enchanted by Bowser to work for him. It replaces the flame fairy, Flare, from the original Panel de Pon.

Yoshi's Woolly World / Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World[edit]

Yoshi outruns a Gargantua Blargg in Yoshi's Woolly World

In Yoshi's Woolly World and Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World, Gargantua Blarggs are orange scarves bending to keep the outline of a Gargantua Blargg. The scarf is further held up by a metal rod, bent in the Blargg's face area. They lack fangs in this game. Gargantua Blarggs usually chase Yoshi around, impeding him greatly due to their size and fire damage. They accelerate as they move, but they can only turn when at a complete stop, meaning they can chase Yoshi from long distances but take a while to turn around if they miss. Gargantua Blarggs can pass through semisolid platforms, but stop at solid terrain. Hitting one with a yarn ball, watermelon seeds from a watermelon or with fire breath from an fire watermelon forces it backward a little. It takes three yarn balls, a large number of watermelon seeds, or ice breath from an Ice watermelon to make the Gargantua Blargg hide back in the lava temporarily. They appear in the levels Lava Scarves and Red-Hot Blarggs, King Bowser's Castle, and Skeleton Goonies' Lava Lair, though King Bowser's Castle only has one Gargantua Blargg in its red room. In Skeleton Goonies' Lava Lair, Gargantua Blarggs only charge straight ahead and do not turn around. Given the lack of terrain and deadly lava below, they serve as extremely tall obstacles that must be surmounted by jumping from the Skeleton Goonies.

Yoshi's Crafted World[edit]

Gargantua Blarggs reappear in Yoshi's Crafted World, in the level Poochy's Magma Run. They are made of bubbled slime and have the same behavior as in the Yoshi's Island games. When a Gargantua Blargg is hit by Yoshi's egg, it spins sinking down. There is also a costume and a craft based on Gargantua Blarggs.
