'''Squigs''' are purple, pig-like enemies that are simply a palette-swap of [[Squiglet]]s. Their first and so far only appearance is in the game, ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. They have 2 times as much HP as Squiglets. This species, along with the other sub-species of Squiglets, spits slow-moving rocks at Mario.
