M. Bush is a bush-like enemy found on Lavalava Island in Paper Mario. Its name is most likely a pun on the words "ambush" and "monster bush." Much like Hurt Plants, they pretend to be ordinary bushes, but will ambush and attack Mario when he examines them. However, unlike Hurt Plants, M. Bushes can be told apart from harmless bushes by their stouter shape and lighter color. They have a low Attack Power and no Defense Power, but have a 45% chance of poisoning Mario with their bite, and usually attack in groups.
A group of M. Bushes traps one of the Fearsome 5 in a tree, and Mario must fight them in order to rescue him.
Field Tattle
- M. Bush. This bizarre creature is only found in the jungles of Lavalava Island. It pretends to be a bush, but it's actually a hunter waiting to surprise prey. I don't wanna be prey. Do you?
