Shlurp

Template:Catch Card Shlurps are enemies in the Wii video game Super Paper Mario. They are almost invincible species that suck up their opponents who run into Mario and others to harm them. The only way to defeat these enemies is to get them to swallow an explosive, Boomer. Their name refers to what they do - Slurp! There are tougher versions, named Shlorps.

Tattle: That bizarre creature is a Shlurp. It has tough skin and an appetite for everything... Max HP is ??, attack is 2, and Defense is ??. No attack will work... But Shlurps are just as fragile inside as they are tough on the outside... Maybe you should try feeding it something that would give it indigestion..."

Trivia

• Like quite a few enemies from Super Paper Mario, Shlurps are probably based on an enemy from the Legend of Zelda video game series--in this case, the Dodongo-type of enemy. Dodongoes, like Shlurps, are tough-skinned creatures that in most cases can only be destroyed by eating a bomb. However, Shlurps look more like an enemy similar to Dodongoes known as Dodongo Eaters from The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening.
• Shlurps are possibly a sub-speices of Wigglers due to the fact that they both have segmented bodies and many legs.
