'''Frogs''' appear in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'']] franchise with varying roles. The first appearance of an anuran creature in a ''Super Mario'' game was ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', which marked the debut of [[Wart]], though non-sapient generic frogs would first appear in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' as minor interactive elements.
==History==
===''Yoshi'' franchise===
====''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' / ''Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3'' ====
In ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]'', green and brown frogs appear as ambient species. They mainly inhabit wet climates, such as [[World 3 (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|World 3]]. They are seen hopping continuously in one direction, switching directions whenever [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] approaches them. They can disappear by jumping into a body of water. However, they will respawn in their initial spot after Yoshi leaves and returns in their area. Additionally, [[Frog Pirate]]s are a larger variety of frogs that grab [[Baby Mario#Super Mario World 2: Yoshi.27s Island .2F Yoshi.27s Island: Super Mario Advance 3|Baby Mario]] using their tongues if a Yoshi approaches. The mid-boss of this world is known as [[Froggy]]. Unlike the other bosses, this one does not get altered by Kamek's magic.
====''Yoshi's Crafted World''====
[[File:HoppinHigherYCW.jpg|200px|thumb|Yoshi standing on a frog]]
Origami frogs appear in ''[[Yoshi's Crafted World]]'' in the level [[Hoppin' Higher]]. In this game, they constantly jump in one spot. If Yoshi [[Ground Pound|ground pound]]s them, they hop higher.
===''Mario Party 2''===
In ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', in the ending cutscene played after finishing a game on [[Horror Land]], [[Bowser|Wizard Bowser]] turns a green [[Koopa Troopa]] into a frog. However, the winner of the game then appears to turn the Koopa back to normal and engages in a duel against Wizard Bowser. Bowser loses and gets turned into a frog himself before hopping away.


'''Frogs''' are real-world amphibians that have appeared in various roles throughout the [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'']] franchise and other related franchises. While the first appearance of a frog in a ''Mario'' game was ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', which marked the debut of [[Wart]], non-sapient generic frogs started appearing in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' as minor interactive entities.

In ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', two friendly non-playable characters, the [[Frog Sage]] and [[Frogfucius' Student|his student]], and two enemies, [[Frogog]] and [[Ribbite]], are sentient frogs. The Frog Sage resides at [[Tadpole Pond]], watching over the [[Tadpole]]s that also live there, and provides [[Mario]]'s party with information, while his student can be found at the [[elder]]'s house in [[Seaside Town]] and [[List of shops in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars#Seaside Town|exchanges items]] for [[Frog Coin]]s.

In ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]'', green and brown frogs appear as ambient species. They mainly inhabit wet climates, such as [[World 3 (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|World 3]]. They are seen hopping continuously in one direction, switching directions whenever [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] approaches them. They can disappear by jumping into a body of water.

===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===
In an E3 demo of ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', [[Hooktail]] had a strong dislike toward frogs. In the final release, while Hooktail is still afraid of frogs in other translated versions of the game, the English version was changed and she was given a hatred of crickets instead. In the [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|Nintendo Switch remake]], Hooktail now has a weakness to frogs in all versions of the game.

Small, harmless frogs appear in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', where they can be found in [[Cap Kingdom|Bonneton]], [[Lake Kingdom|Lake Lamode]], [[Moon Kingdom|Honeylune Ridge]], and the [[Darker Side]]. They can be [[capture]]d by Mario and [[Cappy]], and are the first captureable beings in the game. As such, capturing a frog in [[Top-Hat Tower]] of the Cap Kingdom for the first time plays a special cutscene as Mario enters the frog. Frogs only move within a small area with tiny hops, and occasionally jump. Additionally, in Top-Hat Tower, percussion instruments are added to the music whenever a frog is captured, and Mario can jump on frogs to receive a [[coin]]. Some frogs wear small top hats, which is noted by a souvenir description to be a defense mechanism. These hats have to be knocked off to capture them, which can be done with an initial [[Cap Throw]] or by jumping on them.  
Small, harmless frogs appear in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', where they can be found in [[Cap Kingdom|Bonneton]], [[Moon Kingdom|Honeylune Ridge]], and the [[Darker Side]]. They can be controlled by Mario and [[Cappy]] and are also the first [[capture]] found in ''Super Mario Odyssey''. When captured, frogs give Mario the ability to jump higher and shaking the [[Nintendo Switch#Joy-Con|Joy-Con]] causes Mario to perform a High Jump, allowing him to reach even higher placed platforms. Mario can also defeat [[Mini Goomba]]s by simply running into them while capturing a frog, since they hop along the ground as they move instead of walking. Like most enemies, they disappear after a while when Mario de-captures them. Sometimes before being captured, they wear small top hats. A plush frog is also a souvenir for the Cap Kingdom. According to the Moon Kingdom brochure, the frogs there were brought by the Moon's first pioneers; seeing a "Moon Frog" is said to be a good omen. Jumping on a frog rewards Mario with one coin.
 
When captured, frogs move somewhat slowly by default but can [[dash]] by holding {{button|switch|X}} or {{button|switch|Y}}. While a frog can already jump quite high, the player can shake their {{button|switch|pro}} or {{button|switch|joy-con}} to perform a High Jump, which has the frog do a back flip as it goes even higher. Mario can defeat [[Mini Goomba]]s by simply running into them while being a frog, due to how they move with hops. Frogs are so light they do not weigh down platforms that sink while Mario stands on them. Frogs can swim on the surface of water without sinking. Frogs cannot unearth [[Rock (Super Mario series)|rocks]].

Frogs appear in the Super Mario franchise with varying roles. The first appearance of an anuran creature in a Super Mario game was Super Mario Bros. 2, which marked the debut of Wart, though non-sapient generic frogs would first appear in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island as minor interactive elements.

History[edit]

Yoshi franchise[edit]

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

In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3, green and brown frogs appear as ambient species. They mainly inhabit wet climates, such as World 3. They are seen hopping continuously in one direction, switching directions whenever Yoshi approaches them. They can disappear by jumping into a body of water. However, they will respawn in their initial spot after Yoshi leaves and returns in their area. Additionally, Frog Pirates are a larger variety of frogs that grab Baby Mario using their tongues if a Yoshi approaches. The mid-boss of this world is known as Froggy. Unlike the other bosses, this one does not get altered by Kamek's magic.

Yoshi's Crafted World[edit]

Origami frogs appear in Yoshi's Crafted World in the level Hoppin' Higher. In this game, they constantly jump in one spot. If Yoshi ground pounds them, they hop higher.

Mario Party 2[edit]

In Mario Party 2, in the ending cutscene played after finishing a game on Horror Land, Wizard Bowser turns a green Koopa Troopa into a frog. However, the winner of the game then appears to turn the Koopa back to normal and engages in a duel against Wizard Bowser. Bowser loses and gets turned into a frog himself before hopping away.

Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars[edit]

In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, two friendly non-playable characters, the Frog Sage and his student, and two enemies, Frogog and Ribbite, are sentient frogs. The Frog Sage resides at Tadpole Pond, watching over the Tadpoles that also live there, and provides Mario's party with information, while his student can be found at the elder's house in Seaside Town and exchanges items for Frog Coins.

Frogs begin their lives as Tadpoles, just as in the real world.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door[edit]

In an E3 demo of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Hooktail had a strong dislike toward frogs. In the final release, while Hooktail is still afraid of frogs in other translated versions of the game, the English version was changed and she was given a hatred of crickets instead. In the Nintendo Switch remake, Hooktail now has a weakness to frogs in all versions of the game.

Diddy Kong Racing / Diddy Kong Racing DS[edit]

In Diddy Kong Racing and its Nintendo DS remake, several frogs live in the pond in the hub. One of these frogs, who has a tell-tale red crest upon its head, is actually Drumstick, who has been put into frog form by Wizpig. He can be freed if the player runs over him with a car.

Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon[edit]

Frogs[1] appear in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, which features them pigmented with warm colors, with most of their body being red. They croak when discovered and act as ambiance creatures. They do not actively try to injure Luigi, but can drain five heart points from his health meter if they run into him. They can be defeated with the Strobulb, dropping a coin once they disappear.

The frogs are mainly found in the Haunted Towers. They also appear in the final King Boo battle, with larger variants appearing as well, which may spawn from spiked balls after King Boo slams the ground. These giant frogs, however, do not grant any treasure upon getting flashed with the Strobulb.

The game also features gold frogs,[2] which reward Luigi with multiple Gold Bars if he uses the Strobulb on them. Gold frogs can be primarily found on the East Balcony of the Treacherous Mansion.

Super Mario Odyssey[edit]

Small, harmless frogs appear in Super Mario Odyssey, where they can be found in Bonneton, Lake Lamode, Honeylune Ridge, and the Darker Side. They can be captured by Mario and Cappy, and are the first captureable beings in the game. As such, capturing a frog in Top-Hat Tower of the Cap Kingdom for the first time plays a special cutscene as Mario enters the frog. Frogs only move within a small area with tiny hops, and occasionally jump. Additionally, in Top-Hat Tower, percussion instruments are added to the music whenever a frog is captured, and Mario can jump on frogs to receive a coin. Some frogs wear small top hats, which is noted by a souvenir description to be a defense mechanism. These hats have to be knocked off to capture them, which can be done with an initial Cap Throw or by jumping on them.

When captured, frogs move somewhat slowly by default but can dash by holding X Button or Y Button. While a frog can already jump quite high, the player can shake their Nintendo Switch Pro Controller or Joy-Con to perform a High Jump, which has the frog do a back flip as it goes even higher. Mario can defeat Mini Goombas by simply running into them while being a frog, due to how they move with hops. Frogs are so light they do not weigh down platforms that sink while Mario stands on them. Frogs can swim on the surface of water without sinking. Frogs cannot unearth rocks.

A Plush Frog is a souvenir for the Cap Kingdom. According to the Moon Kingdom brochure, the frogs there were brought by the Moon's first pioneers; seeing a "Moon Frog" is said to be a good omen.

In this game, the frogs resemble Japanese tree frogs.
