Powered-Up Rocky Wrench
General information
Species Rocky Wrench
Appearances
First appearance The Art of Super Mario Odyssey (2018)

The Powered-Up Rocky Wrench is a scrapped Rocky Wrench boss that was planned to appear in Super Mario Odyssey, but was later replaced with the Broodals (specifically Rango). They are based on Rocky Wrench's original design rather than the modern design, having the shell, taller orange body, white-rimmed sunglasses, round snout, and sharp teeth of the older depictions of Rocky Wrench. The Powered-Up Rocky Wrench also has a big pointy flower on its head, which was likely going to be used as a projectile they would throw at Mario.

The Powered-Up Rocky Wrench was featured in concept artwork from The Art of Super Mario Odyssey book as a part of the "Powered-Up Regular Enemy Designs" which also featured other Powered-Up enemies that were planned to appear as bosses. However, due to most of the Powered-Up enemies being too Koopa-like, the designs were scrapped due to them being too similar to the Koopalings and they would eventually be replaced by the Broodals. However, the book stated that these designs could potentially return in a future game.

Trivia

  • One of the other concept art designs for the Broodals has a member with heavy similarities to the Powered-Up Rocky Wrench, having a similar shell on their back and throwing the exact same pointy flowers that the Powered-Up Rocky Wrench has.
  • The Powered-Up Rocky Wrench was eventually replaced by Rango, though Rango has some inspiration from the scrapped Powered-Up Rocky Wrench boss, such as throwing bouncy flower hats which are similar to the pointy flower that the Powered-Up Rocky Wrench has.
