Monty Moles have appeared in many volumes of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]''. They
In volume 1, their first appearance is a small cameo in the first chapter when [[Bowser]] talks about [[Koopa Troop|his army]], where a Monty Mole can be seen amongst other enemies. They make an actual appearance in the seventh chapter, where [[Mario]] and Yoshi attempt to steal the Monty Moles' [[coin]]s (due to them being tricked by a [[Galoomba|Goomba]]). The Monty Moles then attack Mario and Yoshi for trying to steal their coins. As Mario tries flying with the [[Cape Feather]] and escaping, he hits the ceiling. However, Yoshi manages to eat all of the Monty Moles. Unfortunately, this causes an enlarged Monty Mole named [[Super Choropū]] to emerge. Super Choropū is angry at Mario and Yoshi for killing the Monty Moles and attempts to kill Mario and Yoshi as well. However, Mario is able to burn Super Choropū with several [[Fire Flower]]s. In a later chapter, Yoshi eats a Monty Mole alongside two Goombas. The final chapter features an original power-up for Mario called the "[[Super Shades]]" that transforms Mario into [[Mogura Mario]], a form that is based off of Monty Moles. He uses this form to dig through the dirt with other Monty Moles being seen in the background.

In volume 17, a Monty Mole (who uses the ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' appearance) owns a shop in the flee market that sells a crown, earrings, a necklace, and a ring. However, when Mario puts on the jewelry, he starts choking due to the jewelry being too tight, with the earrings then also being revealed to be small [[Chain Chomp]]s as well. The Monty Mole offers Mario some {{wp|aojiru}} to help, which Mario pukes after drinking it. In the end, Mario still buys the crown. On the side of page 59 (during these events), artwork of three Monty Moles is shown. While the first two Monty Moles use their ''Super Mario 64'' appearance like the Monty Mole in the chapter, the third Monty Mole has a unique design with an "A" on its forehead, thick eyebrows, and a long chin. In a later ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' themed chapter, several Monty Moles (now using the traditional ''Super Mario-kun'' design) pop out of the ground and cling onto Mario's kart. Peach, however, throws a [[! Block]] at Mario which blows up the Monty Moles.
In volume 18, several Monty Moles can be seen when Mario is about to throw [[Baseball (object)|baseballs]] at the targets. The Monty Moles pop out of the targets and throw the baseballs back at Mario. The Monty Moles then attempt to throw [[bomb]]s at Mario, but Mario uses his [[Bunny Mario|Bunny Ears]] from ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'' to throw the bombs back at the Monty Moles. This is the first volume to use the current design used in ''Super Mario-kun'' (though one Monty Mole has sunglasses in-reference to
In volume 19, Bowser commands a group of Monty Moles to attack Mario, but they are quickly electrocuted by Mario's friends that he made throughout the ''Super Mario 64'' arc. [[Dorrie]] can be seen chewing on a Monty Mole and [[King Bob-omb]] is seen holding one.

In volume 23, a mother [[big Monty Mole]]
In volume 27, a Monty Mole can be seen briefly in the [[Woody Woods]] adaptation from the ''Mario Party 3'' arc when Mario is launched into the air. This is the final appearance of Monty Mole's original design in the manga (excluding the ghost Monty Mole in volume 55).

In volume 44, a Monty Mole with glasses can be seen briefly ambushing Mario in a chapter, though they do not attack him. In a later chapter, several Monty Mole miners named [[Chorozairu]] can be seen working for a [[Buzzy Beetle]].
In volume 45, a Monty Mole named [[Choropū the Picasso]] (named after the famous artist {{wp|Pablo Picasso) can be seen as the main antagonist of
In volume 46, Monty Moles appear in the table of contents page, mimicking their ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' artwork. Monty Moles make a major role in the fourth chapter, when Mario, Luigi, and [[Toad]] stumble upon the「もぐらまつり」(''[[Mogura Matsuri]]'', Mole Festival), a festival filled with Monty Moles, some of which are wearing headbands. They meet a female Monty Mole (who is also a [[Rocky Wrench]], which was shown in the first chapter of the volume) named [[Pūko]] who gives them a tour of the festival. One of the areas of the festival is a whack-a-mole game which has Mario being whacked by Monty Moles as he tries to whack them, which Pūko reveals it to actually be「チョロプーがたたくゲーム」(''[[Choropū ga tataku gēmu]]'', a game where Monty Moles whack the player, since the Japanese name of "whack-a-mole",「モグラたたき」(''mogura tataki''), literally translates to "mole whack" and can be interpreted as the moles being the subject instead of the object). While Pūko continues the tour for Mario and his friends, a [[Morty Mole]] destroys the festival due to it being in their home, causing the Monty Moles to flee. While Mario fights the Morty Mole, Pūko gives Mario a super-metal, invincible power suit that was handed down for generations in the Monty Mole family, which Mario takes off immediately after feeling uncomfortable wearing it. As the Morty Mole attacks Mario, Luigi wins two [[Statue Leaf|Statue Leaves]] from a raffle run by a Monty Mole with glasses which they use to defeat the Morty Mole and save the Mogura Matsuri.
