Lakitu's Clouds are a type of cloud with a smiley face that Lakitus usually inhabit. Lakitus throws Spinies from the cloud. It was originally known as Jugem's Cloud in English, with Jugem being the Japanese name of Lakitu left unchanged.
In Super Mario Bros. 3, Lakitu's Cloud could be used by Mario or Luigi to skip a level he disliked (although he'd be transported back to the space before the level if he lost at the one he skipped to).
In Super Mario World, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, New Super Mario Bros. and it sequel after taking out the Lakitu inhabiting it (if there is one), the player could jump on Lakitu's Cloud to reach places that he could normally not get to.
Most Lakitu's Clouds are white. However, in Paper Mario, Lakilulu, the girlfriend of Lakilester, has a pink-colored cloud; additionally, the clouds of Dark Lakitus from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door are gray in color. Lakithunder of New Super Mario Bros. also has a dark gray cloud with glaring, yellow eyes; Lakithunder's cloud is capable of firing lightning bolts as well.
Most Lakitu's Clouds have faces. In the Paper Mario series, the clouds share the expressions of their owners; additionally, some Lakitu's Clouds in the Paper Mario series wear sunglasses. The clouds of Fishin' Boos and Calm Fishin' Boos don't have faces, however In Super Mario 64, The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!, and The Great Mission to Save Princess Peach, all Lakitus are portrayed without faces on their clouds.
