Seedles are seed-like enemies that appear in Mario & Luigi: Brothership on Conductor Island and Rumbla Island. They are the weakest enemies in the game and the first ones Mario battles. Their name is a portmanteau of "seed" and "little". They have brown feet, yellow bodies, and a green sprout. Seedles, like most other enemies, wander on the field aimlessly, only attacking when Mario and Luigi get too close to them.

Battle

Seedles attack by simply running into the Mario Bros., which can be avoided by jumping.

Seedles also have a stronger variant called the Seedle R, which appears on Florall Island, and a water-possessing variant called the Hydro Seedle, which appears on both Florall Island and Liil Islet.

There is a Battle Plug that can randomly cause enemies to pop, leaving behind a Seedle.
