Variants

Biddybuds are enemies resembling multicolored ladybugs and appear in red, yellow, blue, green, and pink varieties. Biddybuds first appear in Super Mario 3D Land. In the platforming games, Biddybuds walk along the ground on a set path, similarly to Goombas, but do not chase the player character upon sight. Biddybuds make alternating high- and low-pitched sounds that can be heard if the player is near them, typically matching the rhythm of the background music.

History[edit]

Super Mario series[edit]

Super Mario 3D Land[edit]

Biddybuds are enemies in Super Mario 3D Land. They first appear in World 1-3, and go on to be common enemies throughout the game. Biddybuds appear mainly in groups of two to five and walk in a set pattern, often circular. Mario can defeat them with any type of attack. Biddybuds have flying variant known as Para-Biddybuds.

Super Mario 3D World / Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury[edit]

Biddybuds are enemies in Super Mario 3D World and its Nintendo Switch port. They look and behave exactly like they do in Super Mario 3D Land, though they are less common than they were originally. They now appear in larger groups than in Super Mario 3D Land. In the remake's Bowser's Fury campaign, Biddybuds with fur, tails, and cat ears appear in Lake Lapcat as enemies, but are otherwise identical to their regular counterparts.

Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe[edit]

Biddybuds are referenced in Mario Kart 8 and its Nintendo Switch port in the form of a kart called the Biddybuggy, more specifically based on their flying counterparts.

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker[edit]

Biddybuds are enemies in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker and its Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS ports, behaving identically as in previous games.

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam[edit]

Biddybuds are enemies in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam. They appear in Sunbeam Plains and later Mount Brrr. They always battle in stacks. Biddybuds can attack by walking into one of the Mario Bros. in a straight line, or they can attack by walking in a stack, occasionally stumbling, causing them to slow down briefly. If they are jumped on while walking in a stack, every Biddybud in the stack will take damage. If the player uses Dropchopper or Cannonball Chuck, the entire stack of Biddybuds will all take damage.

Mario Tennis Aces[edit]

Biddybuds are non-playable characters in Mario Tennis Aces. In Adventure Mode, they are spectators in the Piranha Plant Forest court.

Mario Golf: Super Rush[edit]

Biddybuds are obstacles in Wildweather Woods in Mario Golf: Super Rush. In Speed Golf, Biddybuds slow player characters when bumped into but can also be jumped on to gain coins.

They appear upon Mario's first meeting with Toad, causing a concerned and frightened Mario to jog away from them and follow Toad. They are featured in promotional posters for the film, including Mario's standalone poster. Unlike in the games, these Biddybuds are not part of the Koopa Troop, but are instead part of the Mushroom Kingdom's wildlife.
