Rocky Wrenches are a type of orange, mole-like and black-shelled Koopas that attack foes by throwing wrenches. Rocky Wrenches work for King Bowser's Koopa Troop, often appearing as guards on the organization's vehicles.
Rocky Wrenches first appear in Super Mario Bros. 3 as enemies on Airships, tanks and ships belonging; upon sighting either Mario or Luigi, a Rocky Wrench will pop out of it's hole on these vehicles and throw wrenches at them, before descending back into their hole. In Mario Kart DS, Rocky Wrenches appear as obstacles on the Airship portion of the Airship Fortress; popping out of their holes at random, these Rocky Wrenches can cause a kart to spin out of control if the run into them.
Rocky Wrenches also appear in Super Mario Galaxy as enemies in the Gusty Garden Galaxy and the Battlerock Galaxy, where they attack by throwing wrenches, like before. If the player were to approach the trap door where Rocky Wrenches attack from, they will not surface, and only will if the player is some distance away.
Appearances in Other Media
On the television series The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3, Rocky Wrenches appear in several episodes, most commonly as the guards of Bowser and the Koopalings' Doomship, although they were also shown to work on tanks and the Doomsub as well. A Rocky Wrench, whose dialogue consists of nothing but menacing growling, has a somewhat prominent role in the episode "Up, Up, and a Koopa", where one is assigned by Bowser and Kooky von Koopa to guard the cage Emperor Ed, and later Mario and Luigi, are held captive in.
