Relatives

The Spike Bass[1] is an enemy in New Super Mario Bros. that resembles an oversized brown tadpole with a pale underbelly. It also has beaming yellow eyes, sharp teeth, and spikes all over its body. The Spike Bass is encountered only in World 2-A and World 3-C, where it jumps from the water and tries to attack Mario or Luigi similarly to Boss Bass but without attempting to eat them. The Spike Bass can be defeated from either a fireball, a Koopa Shell, a Starman, or a Mega Mushroom, though a different one appears in its place a few seconds later. Later games give this enemy's behavior to Porcupuffer, which does not jump in earlier appearances.
