Why are the White Clubbas called albino? #1: that's not revealed in-game and #2: They don't seem to have pink eyes, even though most characters in that game have little dots for eyes. Lemmy Koopa Fan Lemmy Koopa Fan 18:14, 4 December 2009 (EST)

First of all, there are several types of albinism in the real world, not all of which result in pink eyes... Now, having got past that, yes; the word is used incorrectly. If it's such an issue for you, just changed it to "White-colored" or some variation thereof. Redstar 18:22, 4 December 2009 (EST)
Alright, I changed it to "white-colored", but the only reason I made this page is so I could check with someone before I made my edit (which I always do) and also, I was just trying to be logical (which, again, I always am) Lemmy Koopa FanLemmy Koopa Fan 22:37, 4 December 2009 (EST)

Isn't Grubba a Clubba? I'manumber1 (talk) 22:50, December 12, 2021 (EST)

This was touched on here. The long and short of it was that Spike's English name was inconsistent at the time of the first two Paper Mario games, and the localizers didn't pick up on Clubba's Japanese name connection to Spike, which is why Tubba Blubba and Grubba were renamed after Clubba despite not fitting Clubba's "club-wielding soldier" description.
