Template:Species-infobox Octoguys[1] also known as Octoomba Leaders are recurring enemies in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. They look like regular Octoombas. They are just like Octoombas in the game because they can spit rocks upwards. But the main difference between them is that, Octoguys shoot rocks faster, and can chase Mario. Despite them being easy in a duo or alone, they are the most difficult enemies in 3d games to defeat when in groups of three, four, or more as such, they give Mario a little amount of time to kill them. What makes things more frustrating is that Octoguys will back away to dodge Mario's attacks. There is good news however, if the player waits for a little, an Octoguy stops running, takes a breath, and is vunerable to attack. This gives Mario's chance to strike thus defeating itself. Interestingly, if Mario Ground Pounded an Octoguy, it will be flat as a pancake.
History
Super Mario Galaxy
In Super Mario Galaxy, they are semi-common enemies appearing in mass numbers in the Honeyhive Galaxy, Buoy Base Galaxy, Gold Leaf Galaxy, and Deep Dark Galaxy. In the Honeyhive Galaxy, they appear in the water-filled planet, trying to prevent Bee Mario from getting to the Queen Bee. They also appear on the Queen Bee's planet. Two of them appear on the fortress in the Buoy Base Galaxy. In the Gold Leaf Galaxy, they appear in the final planet of the second mission in the water-filled section. In the Deep Dark Galaxy, they guard a Fire Flower that is needed for Mario or Luigi to proceed through the level. A lone Octoguy also appears in "Bubble Blastoff", trying to knock Mario off a pole he is climbing.
Super Mario Galaxy 2
In Super Mario Galaxy 2, Octoguys return. They appear in the Boulder Bowl Galaxy, in the Honeyhop Galaxy and Shiverburn Galaxy's Prankster Comet mission.
