The Wiggler Family Farm

The Wiggler Family is a family of Wigglers that work as farmers in Dimble Woods. They appeared in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. For generations they have been in charge of running Wiggler Family Farm and the protection of the family's greatest heritage The Giga-Carrot, a giant carrot that was grown by the family's ancestor and has since been the family's responsibility to keep it growing.

History

In the game Bowser was looking for a Banzai Bill to load into his cannon and while searching he ends up on Wiggler Farms where he finds the Giga-Carrot, seeing that it is the same size as a Banzai Bill he plucks it from the ground and hopes to use it as ammo for his cannon, however a large Wiggler appears from the Giga-Carrot's hole claiming that Bowser had no right to pluck his family's legacy, but Bowser shows no concern whatsoever and only asks the Wiggler if he has a Banzai Bill, the Wiggler claims that he does as a long time ago a Banzai Bill landed in the pasture and he had been taking care of it. He agrees to give Bowser the Banzai Bill but in exchange he requests that Bowser must take responsibility for his action by eating the entire Giga-Carrot. However after Bowser eats it the Wiggler becomes angry complaining that Bowser had no right to eat it (even though he was the one who forced Bowser into eating it), he then proceeds to attack Bowser. After Bowser defeats the Wiggler he runs back into his hole and gives Bowser the Banzai Bill and asks that he leave his property.

Members

Aside from the family ancestors, only two known members of the family are shown in the present time-line of the game, which consists of a small Squiggler who tends to the garden and a large forgetful Wiggler who lives beneath the Giga-Carrot and acts as a boss in the game.

The Squiggler

This young Squiggler was met by Bowser shortly after arriving at the farms. It is very knowledgeable about vegetables and their health benefits and dislikes those who disrespect vegetables, it believes that someday those who insult vegetables will pay. It upholds Princess Peach's standing order on farming and believes violence isn't farm fresh and prefers to grow fine organic vegetables without the use of pesticide.

This large Wiggler lives beneath the Wiggler Family Farm and acts as the protector of the Giga-Carrot, which was planted by his grandfather's, grandfather's, grandfather's, grandfather's, grandfather's, grandfather's, grandfather. He appears to be very forgetful and quick-tempered as shown when he attacked Bowser for eating the Giga-Carrot even though he was the one who told Bowser to eat it. For unknown reasons he secretly took care of a Banzai Bill that fell on his property a while back.

Boss Battle

In battle, the Wiggler becomes enraged thus making him immune to damage and he can use many different moves. His most noticeable attack is when he stands up straight and his front pair of feet morph into hands. He then gets a watering can and waters the ground, making Turnips and Leaf Guys grow there. After the two Leaf Guys attack they will appear on the top screen with a giant Turnip waiting to drop it on Bowser; Bowser can inhale the Leaf Guys causing the Turnip to fall on the Wiggler knocking him out of his enraged state.

Trivia

  • Aside from growing carrots, the Wiggler boss has also shown the ability to grow turnips and Leaf Guys which can pluck larger turnips from the ground, implying that the family farm may also grow turnips and that the Leaf Guys may aid in the harvesting of the crops.
  • Another Wiggler appears guarding the southwest area of Dimble Woods, but whether or not he is a member of the Wiggler Family or the same Wiggler from before is never mentioned, although he is aware of Bowser's attack on the Wiggler Farms.
