Hey, I actually just noticed the visual difference in the ''Super Mario Bros. Wonder'' article when you messaged me, so yes, there's...confusion. I looked at the internals to hopefully make some sense out of it. So the basic Hoppycat enemy/expert is called by the early name "JumpUni" which basically "Jump Urchin" (no relation to Urchin, but possibly meant to have one to Biripyon aka JumpToge), and the big green one is called "JumpUniWonder" - so it looks like, for the Japanese guide, they repurposed the name "Wonder" for the "expert" recolor, and left the big green one unnamed? Am I understanding that right?

:The guidebook lists the large Hoppycat as「巨大なホッピン※」with the ※ mark indicating that the enemy does not have a formal name and the specified name was made up for the purpose of the guidebook (名前の横に※があるものは、正式名称がないため本書独自で名称をつけたもの). The orange Hoppycat is listed as「ワンダーホッピン」and lacks a ※ mark, which means that the name is official and was not made up for the guidebook. {{User:Jdtendo/sig}} 11:12, January 26, 2024 (EST) | :The guidebook lists the large Hoppycat as「巨大なホッピン※」with the ※ mark indicating that the enemy does not have a formal name and the specified name was made up for the purpose of the guidebook (名前の横に※があるものは、正式名称がないため本書独自で名称をつけたもの).

Hey, I actually just noticed the visual difference in the Super Mario Bros. Wonder article when you messaged me, so yes, there's...confusion. I looked at the internals to hopefully make some sense out of it. So the basic Hoppycat enemy/expert is called by the early name "JumpUni" which basically "Jump Urchin" (no relation to Urchin, but possibly meant to have one to Biripyon aka JumpToge), and the big green one is called "JumpUniWonder" - so it looks like, for the Japanese guide, they repurposed the name "Wonder" for the "expert" recolor, and left the big green one unnamed?

- The guidebook lists the large Hoppycat as「巨大なホッピン※」with the ※ mark indicating that the enemy does not have a formal name and the specified name was made up for the purpose of the guidebook (名前の横に※があるものは、正式名称がないため本書独自で名称をつけたもの). The orange Hoppycat is listed as「ワンダーホッピン」and lacks a ※ mark, which means that the name is official and was not made up for the guidebook. Jdtendo(T|C) 11:12, January 26, 2024 (EST)
