Template:Species-infobox Madpoles[1] are a species of turquoise tadpoles debuting in Super Mario 3D World. Their name is a combination of "mad" and "tadpole".

They can be defeated by any attack. Madpoles appear in Rammerhead Reef, The Bowser Express, Deepwater Dungeon, Sprawling Savanna Rabbit Run, and Pipeline Boom Lagoon.
