I think we should list the larger Gringills as a seperate species. Should we?--Yoshidino (talk) 19:58, 8 February 2013 (EST)

In fact, they have two separate names in Encyclopedia Super Mario Bros.: 「大アナゴン」 (127) for Super Mario Galaxy and 「でかアナゴン」 (160) for Super Mario Galaxy 2, both basically meaning "Big Gringill". LinkTheLefty (talk) 16:17, 8 December 2017 (EST)

The name "Giant Gringill" exists....but is in reference to the smaller orange type (as said in the Drip Drop Galaxy), so it wouldn't work... Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 21:24, 29 January 2018 (EST)

I think we should... -- FanOfYoshi at 12:42, 9 February 2019 (EST)

"Giant Gringill" is a localization mistake because the penguins were generically referring to them as "giant anago" instead of "Giant Anagon" in the Japanese version; either way, both Prima guides group them together as "Gringill" plainly. LinkTheLefty (talk) 12:53, 9 February 2019 (EST)

Snakehead is kinda unfitting, given that they're actually eels, so i don't know wether Giant Gringill is only erroneously used to refer to the small ones. -- FanOfYoshi at 13:37, 28 February 2019 (EST)

"Giant" is likely a generic description only capitalized due to being the first word of a sentence. Anyways, given that snakeheads in real life are a carnivorous, large-eyed, lengthy fish, it's not that unreasonable. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 14:07, 28 February 2019 (EST)

Not really, it can go either way, but i'd prefer to be consistent with the normal Gringill's name personally. -- FanOfYoshi at 13:08, March 29, 2019 (EDT)
