Crazee Dayzees, along with Amazy Dayzees, make a return appearance in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' as well as its [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|Nintendo Switch remake]]. In this game, they can be found along the [[Twilight Trail]] near [[Twilight Town]]. Like in the previous installment, they attack by singing, putting Mario or his partner to [[sleep]] (while also [[Piercing attack|piercing]] defense), and [[flee]] from battle. Amazy Dayzees also appear in the lower levels of the [[Pit of 100 Trials (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Pit of 100 Trials]] and alongside other enemies in Twilight Trail. Starting with Twilight Trail, Crazee Dayzees can start appearing in the [[audience]]; if one sings, it will put a large swath of audience members to sleep for a short period. A Crazee Dayzee with green petals and blue feet, known as [[Hayzee]], appears as [[Luigi]]'s ally. He joined Luigi on his adventure to assemble the [[List of Implied Items#Marvelous Compass|Marvelous Compass]] after being impressed by Luigi's portrayal of "grass" in a play. Hayzee is from a town of Crazee Dayzees known as [[List of implied locations#Jazzafrazz Town|Jazzafrazz Town]], which is the first time that a Crazee Dayzee is shown to be an ally, rather than just a simple enemy.

Crazee Dayzees return in the third installment of the ''Paper Mario'' series ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. This time around they can be found in some of the many dimensions that Mario visits throughout his journey, such as [[The Dotwood Tree]] in the [[Bitlands]] and the [[Land of the Cragnons]]. Crazee Dayzees lost the ability to run away from the [[Heroes of Light]], but they can still put their enemies to [[Sleep]]. Its stronger variety also makes a return in this game.

When they sing, a musical note fires from them towards the player like a projectile and puts them to sleep when hit. Its stronger variety, the [[Amazy Dayzee]], also returns.

==Characteristics==
===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''===
Crazee Dayzees appear to be anthropomorphic pansy flowers. They have four purple or yellow petals circling their face. Their face always have a big smile and rosy cheeks. Their bodies are small compared to their heads, and their bodies are green. They have two small green arms, and two purple or blue feet. The legs often move rapidly when the Dayzee runs.

==Profiles and statistics==
[[File:PMTTYD CrazeeDayzee Fleeing.png‎|thumb|x150px|left|A Crazee Dayzee Dayzee running away from Mario and leaving behind its group.]]
===''Yoshi's Island'' series===
Unlike many enemies in the ''[[Mario series|Mario]]'' series, Crazee Dayzees are rather timid. When in peril, they prefer to run away than face the danger. They have little physical strength, although they have enough power to push [[Baby Mario]] off [[Yoshi]]'s back. However, they can sing powerful lullabies that put their enemies to [[sleep]]. In the ''Yoshi'' series, they dance along and sing, but the song does not affect Yoshi. Their only difference from [[Shy Guy]]s in this series is that they are not defeated if swallowed and spat out, unless they hit another enemy.

===Leadership and allegiance===
====''Yoshi's New Island''====
Crazee Dazyees, unlike many enemies in the ''Mario'' series, do not appear to have an allegiance with any character or group. However, in the past, when [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] were [[star children|babies]], they were allied with [[Kamek]], who was then the leader of the [[Koopa Troop]]. At this point, they may not have developed their lullaby-singing skills, as their only battle technique was to dance along passively.
*'''Shogakukan guide:''' 花のような敵で、ゆっくりと地上を歩く。中には、泡を吐き出してくるものもいる。正面から泡に触れると後方に押し戻されるが、ダメージは受けない。<ref name=YNI>「ヨッシー New アイランド 任天堂公式ガイドブック」 (''Yoshi's New Island Nintendo Kōshiki Guidebook''). {{file link|Yoshi New Island Shogakukan P23.jpg|Page 23}}.</ref> (''They are flower-like enemies, and they walk slowly on the ground. Some of them spit out bubbles. If you touch the bubbles from the front, you will be pushed backward, but you will not be damaged.'')


In the ''Paper Mario'' series, Crazee Dayzees appear to have no allegiance, although they may be allied with the Koopa Troop in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. In said game, they appeared as foes in [[Flower Fields]]. It is possible that they are under the control of [[Huff N. Puff]] at this time, though it is unlikely, as Crazee Dayzees are plant creatures, a type of organism that the [[Ruff Puff]] leader seems to dislike. If anyone, they are likely under the control of [[Bowser]].
===''Paper Mario'' series===
====''Paper Mario''====
{{:Paper Mario bestiary|transcludesection=Crazee Dayzee|image=[[File:PM Crazee Dayzee idle.gif]]|align=horizontal}}


In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', Crazee Dayzees appear on the [[Twilight Trail]], only in the forest portion. They appear to have no allegiance here. Thus, it is unknown why they attack passerby. It is possible that they consider Mario and his partners a threat and fight them off. However, they attempt to begin a battle in the field by running towards the red plumber.

A similar oddity exists for the Crazee Dayzees in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. Here, they appear in the [[Dotwood Tree]]. Again, they appear to have no allegiance, but once again attack on sight. It is unknown why they attack the player.
=====Nintendo Switch=====
{{:Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch) bestiary|transcludesection=Crazee Dayzee|align=horizontal}}


===Culture===
====''Super Paper Mario''====
Crazee Dayzees rarely appear as allies in the series. Instead, they appear as simple enemies existing to attack the player. However, in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', Luigi explains that during his adventures in the [[Waffle Kingdom]], he came upon a civilized town of Dayzees called [[Jazzafrazz Town]]. They live in peace, and their most important activity appears to be the [[List of Implied Events|Jazzafrazz Town Drama Slam]], where Dayzees show off their singing and dancing skills by putting on plays. The winner of this event earns the [[Dramalama Plaque]], which was, at least once, a piece of the [[List of Implied Items#Marvelous Compass|Marvelous Compass]]. An example of these civilized Dayzees is Luigi's friend [[Hayzee]].

Goombario, Paper Mario

Crazee Dayzees are flower-like enemies that first appeared in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.

History[edit]

Yoshi's Island series[edit]

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island / Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3[edit]

Crazee Dayzees' first appearance is in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, where they act as minor recurring enemies throughout the game and can have either white or yellow petals. Crazee Dayzees behave similarly to Shy-Guys, but will survive being swallowed and spat out unless they collide with another enemy. An uncommon variation with purple petals that spits out bubbles known as Bubble Dayzee can also be found in some levels.

Yoshi's Island DS[edit]

Crazee Dayzees reappear in Yoshi's Island DS, where they act as they did in the previous game. They are found in many levels, including Ba-dum BUM!, Hit the M Blocks!, Mario's Fleet Feet, Baby Mario and Baby Peach: Dynamic Duo and Donuts and Eggs. Notably, the Bubble Dayzees do not appear in this game.

Yoshi's New Island[edit]

Crazee Dayzees reappear in Yoshi's New Island and behave identically as in the first two games.

Paper Mario series[edit]

Crazee Dayzees in the Paper Mario series all have lavender petals and purple feet, potentially inspired by Bubble Dayzee's design.

Paper Mario[edit]

In Paper Mario, Crazee Dayzees first appear as enemies in Flower Fields, where they attack Mario on sight and often fight alongside Bzzaps! and Ruff Puffs. They typically attack by singing, putting Mario to sleep. They will flee from battle when Mario gets their HP low enough. A rare variant known as the Amazy Dayzee first appears in this game, which has higher HP, and much higher attack in comparison.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door[edit]

Crazee Dayzees, along with Amazy Dayzees, make a return appearance in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door as well as its Nintendo Switch remake. In this game, they can be found along the Twilight Trail near Twilight Town. Like in the previous installment, they attack by singing, putting Mario or his partner to sleep (while also piercing defense), and flee from battle. Amazy Dayzees also appear in the lower levels of the Pit of 100 Trials and alongside other enemies in Twilight Trail. Starting with Twilight Trail, Crazee Dayzees can start appearing in the audience; if one sings, it will put a large swath of audience members to sleep for a short period. A Crazee Dayzee with green petals and blue feet, known as Hayzee, appears as Luigi's ally. He joined Luigi on his adventure to assemble the Marvelous Compass after being impressed by Luigi's portrayal of "grass" in a play. Hayzee is from a town of Crazee Dayzees known as Jazzafrazz Town, which is the first time that a Crazee Dayzee is shown to be an ally, rather than just a simple enemy.

Despite the Nintendo Switch remake changing most instances referring to mental states, including most uses of the word "crazy," Crazee Dayzees retain their name.

Super Paper Mario[edit]

Crazee Dayzees return in Super Paper Mario. They can be found in the Dotwood Tree and rooms 26 and 58 of the Flipside Pit of 100 Trials. When they sing, a musical note fires from them towards the player like a projectile and puts them to sleep when hit. Its stronger variety, the Amazy Dayzee, also returns.

Minecraft[edit]

In the Super Mario Mash-up for Minecraft, Cornflowers are replaced by Crazee Dayzees.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate[edit]

A Crazee Dayzee appears as a spirit in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Profiles and statistics[edit]

Yoshi's Island series[edit]

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island / Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3[edit]

  • Shogakukan guide: 白と黄色のパソジーさんは、口笛を吹きながらスキップをしているだけ。紫のパソジーさんは、シャボン玉を吹いている。これに当たるとはじかれるが、食べればシャボン玉を吹けるようになる。[1] (The white and yellow Crazee Dayzees whistle as they merely skip along. The purple Crazee Dayzees blow soap bubbles. These cause bouncing when hit, but eating them will allow soap bubbles to be blown.)

Tattle This is a Crazee Dayzee. Crazee Dayzees look cute, but you won't think they're so cute after they attack you! Max HP: 8, Attack Power: 4, Defense Power: 0 They attack by singing a song. If you fall under the song's spell, you'll fall asleep. If you get their HP low enough, they'll try to run away. Beat 'em quickly so they can't flee.

Log This fleet-footed flower foe is super-cute, and it sings one hypnotically sleepy lullaby.
Tattle That's a Crazee Dayzee. It may look totally cute, but it's a serious foe. Max HP is 7, Attack is 2, and Defense is 0. What you gotta worry about is its lullaby. That tune will totally zonk you out. If you manage to guard well, though, you might not pass out. Try to learn the timing. Oh, and when its HP runs low, it runs away, so try to KO it in one fell swoop.
