A Burrbo is a small hedgehog type enemy appearing in Super Mario Odyssey, debuting in the Cascade Kingdom, and returning in the Seaside Kingdom, Dark Side, Metro Kingdom, Ruined Kingdom, Bowser's Kingdom, Mushroom Kingdom and the Darker Side. They come in five different colors: green, orange, yellow, pink and blue. They attack by hopping towards Mario. They have two legs and no arms they are found in large groups, and can be defeated easily with a hat throw. They cannot be Captured and more will rise from the ground when the others are defeated. The design for their eyes closely resembles Cappy's, while the design for their mouths resemble those of Goombas.
