Monty Mole: Difference between revisions

Monty Moles (referred to as '''1-up Moles''' by ''[[Nintendo Power]]'')<ref>Nintendo Power issue 185 (November 2004), p. 116</ref> appear in ''[[Mario Pinball Land]]''. A singular Monty Mole can be found in every level except [[The Fun Fair]] where they peek out from one of their holes. If Mario hits a Monty Mole, he gains 500 [[point]]s and the Monty Mole is stunned briefly before moving to another hole. The Monty Mole eventually goes back to their previous hole if they are not hit after a while. If Mario hits the Monty Mole enough times, they will go to the background and then proceed to drop a [[1-Up Mushroom]] due to digging underneath it. After this, the Monty Mole cannot be hit further. Due to their behavior, the only way a Monty Mole can be defeated is with a [[Starman]]. Each level that a Monty Mole appears in also has a unique costume for them specific to that level. The [[Grassy Greens Stage]] has a normal Monty Mole; the [[Frosty Frontier Stage]] has a parka wearing Monty Mole; the [[Shifting Sands Stage]] has a fez wearing Monty Mole; and the [[Fiery Stage]], has a Viking helmet wearing Monty Mole.
