- —IDLE, Mario & Luigi: Brothership[1]
IDLE is a group of characters who appear in Mario & Luigi: Brothership. They are a team of four Concordian children, each with a yellow-orange band tied around a different part of their body. Its name is an acronym made up of the initials of their members:[1]
- Ireen, a short, pink Concordian who wears her band as a hair bow.
- Dulles, a lanky green Concordian with their band tied around their antenna.
- Loog, a short blue Concordian wearing their band as a scarf.
- Ellow, a stocky yellow Concordian wearing their band as a cape.
Princess Peach and a Dorrie join the group at a certain point in the game; the former wears her band around her right arm, and the latter around its neck.
