→Undergrunts being Monty Moles/Montys being Rocky Wrenches
Line 101:
Back when ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' first released, many fans mistaken the mole species from that game, the [[Undergrunt]]s, as the exact same as [[Monty Mole]]s (or a species related to them), due to the Undergrunts being the only mole species featured in ''Super Mario Galaxy'' and its sequel ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' and having vague similarities. [[Monty]] was also mistaken for [[Rocky Wrench]] by fans as well, due to their similar [[wrench]] throwing behaviors. This misconception was mainly from older revisions of Super Mario Wiki (and various other Mario wikis) and some YouTube videos that are compilations of Monty Mole's evolution in the series which incorrectly showed Undergrunt species and treated them as a part of the Monty Mole species (with these videos usually also treating [[Major Burrows]] as a regular Monty Mole or the only mole in ''Super Mario Galaxy'', despite both of those being incorrect).
However, none of the Undergrunt species have any reliable official sources that confirm them being a species or relative to Monty Moles. Additionally, Undergrunts bare little to no intentional design similarities to any of the Monty Mole species (despite some fans saying otherwise) and also having completely separate attack patterns as well that do not match any Monty Mole attack patterns in the series before and since. [[Undergrunt Gunner]]s are also often compared to the Monty Moles from ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''
Some illegitimate official sources have given Montys from ''Super Mario Galaxy'' an incorrect name, such as the English ''[[Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia]]'' incorrectly naming them Monty Mole and the English ''[[Mario Portal]]'' incorrectly naming them Rocky Wrench.
