Whimp

The title of this article is conjectural; an official name for the article's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an acceptable name is found, then the article should be moved to the new title.

Template:Species-infobox Whimps are miniature Whomps that appear in Super Mario Galaxy 2. They only appear at Throwback Galaxy in the mission "Return of the Whomp King". In the second and third phase of the Whomp King battle, the king will stomp a foot to make three (five in the third battle phase) Whimps break off from the ground. After that, the Whimps will instantly start chasing after Mario or Luigi. Once they get close enough, they fall face-down, attempting to crush Mario or Luigi. Luckily, unlike other Whomps, they only take a point of Mario's health, instead of taking all of his health. Also, they are more fragile than regular Whomps, and break as soon as they attack. Therefore, to defeat them all, one of the plumbers has to do is just simply get the Whimps to attack. The Bros. can also kill a Whimp by doing a Star Spin.

Appearance

Whimps are abthe size of Mario. Their eyes are black half circles with red dots inside and no eyebrows. Their mouths are peanut shaped with one tooth on the top-right and a red tongue. Other than that and size, Whimps look exactly like regular Whomps.
