They resemble [[Mega Mole]]s ([[Monty Mole]]s in the remake), are dressed as presenters, and give presents to Mario and Luigi, such as items, clothing, or badges. Asking them again after getting the item will result in them telling the player that they are greedy, and that they cannot receive any more items. In the original game, Presenters are yellow in color, have the shades, hair, and mouths of Mega Moles, and wear red bow ties; in the remake, they simply look like Monty Moles, but still have the bow ties.▼

''Reward'': [[Golden Mushroom (crownless)|Golden Mushroom]]
''Location'': When the brothers use the [[Firebrand]] [[Dash (Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga)|Dash]] to knock over the [[Ankoopa]] in [[Hoohoo Village]], they will find this Presenter.

''Prerequisite'': Ultra Hammers<br>
''Reward'': [[Max Nut]]

'''Presenter #3'''<br>
''Prerequisite'': Bros. Hammer Moves<br>
''Reward'':
''Location'': In the [[Beanbean Fields|Beanbean Outskirts]], just west of the entrance to [[Beanbean Castle Town]], the brothers will find a fence that Luigi can burrow under after performing a Luigi Dunk.

'''Presenter #4'''<br>
''Prerequisite'': Hand Powers<br>
''Reward'': [[Red Pepper]],
''Location'': In the Beanbean Outskirts, just south of the entrance to [[Teehee Valley]], the brothers can find a hidden section from the northeast corner of the area. In this section, Mario can drink from the water spout and then Luigi can tickle Mario from behind in front of each of the six plant roots. This will cause Luigi to eject Mario's water onto each of the roots in order to grow them into flat trees that can be High Jumped on. One of these trees will lead to this Presenter.

'''Presenter #6'''<br>
''Prerequisite'': Bros. Hammer Moves<br>
''Reward'': [[High-End Badge

'''Presenter #7'''<br>
''Prerequisite'': Hand Powers<br>
''Reward'': [[Wool Trousers
''Location'': In the Beanbean Outskirts, just south of the entrance to [[Yoshi Theater]], the brothers will find an electrical orb that can be ignited with Luigi's Thunderhand Power.

'''Presenter #8'''<br>
''Prerequisite'': Bros. Hand Power Moves<br>
''Reward'': [[Iron Pants
''Location'': In the Beanbean Outskirts, west of the area south of the entrance to Teehee Valley, the brothers can undergo a series of obstacle courses, ultimately leading them to the next area on the west, where a cave awaits them at the end.

==Trivia==
*In the section talking about the Presenter in Joke's End from the ''[[Nintendo Power]]'' guidebook, it explicitly makes a reference to real life moles.<ref>"We wish moles in the real world were as generous (and wore the same cool shades) as the ones in the game." - ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' Player's Guide page 103.</ref>
*Despite Presenters not reappearing in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', the standard Monty Moles that replaced them would be referred to as Presenter in the game's files.<ref>''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'' internal filename (<tt>content0.game/romfs/Obj/FChr.dat/_CA_INFO_/f_presenter</tt>)</ref> This likely suggests that Presenters were initially planned to return in the remake, but were later replaced with standard Monty Moles at some point during development.
