Template:Species-infobox Biddybuds are common enemies appearing in Super Mario 3D Land, Super Mario 3D World, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, and Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam. They resemble multicolored ladybugs and appear in red, yellow, blue, green, and pink. In the platforming games, Biddybuds simply walk along the ground on a set path, though unlike the Goombas in the game, they do not chase the player when they are in sight. They make alternating high- and low-pitched sounds that can be heard if the player is near them. These sounds are typically to the rhythm of the song that is playing in the level.

History

Super Mario series

Biddybuds first appear in World 1-3. They mainly appear in groups of two to five and walk in a set pattern, often circular. Mario can defeat them with any type of attack. They also have a sub-species called Para-Biddybuds, which have wings and fly, similar to a Paragoomba. They are a common enemy, but not as common as Goombas are.

Super Mario 3D World / Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury

Biddybuds in Super Mario 3D World

Biddybuds reappear in Super Mario 3D World. 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 Bowser's Fury campaign of Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury, Biddybuds with fur, tails, and cat ears appear in Lake Lapcat as enemies. These cat-like Biddybuds behave identically to their ordinary counterparts.

Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

While Biddybuds themselves do not appear in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, a kart called the Biddybuggy is based on their flying counterparts.

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker

Biddybuds reappear as enemies in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, where they act the same as they did in previous games.

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam

Biddybuds reappear in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam as enemies. 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

Biddybuds appear as audience members in the Piranha Plant Forest

Biddybuds reappear in Mario Tennis Aces as nonplayable characters in the game's Adventure Mode, as spectators in the Piranha Plant Forest court.
