Presenters are yellow moles who heavily resemble [[Mega Mole]]s that wear a red bowtie. Presenters are usually hidden in various locations, usually in a hidden area or after a hidden platforming challenge. When [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] find a Presenter, they usually give the Bros. either an item, a piece of clothing, or a badge. Talking to a Presenter after getting their item will result in them telling the Mario Bros. that they are greedy, and that they cannot receive any more items. In the [[Nintendo 3DS]] remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', Presenters were replaced with bowtie wearing Monty Moles, as confirmed by [[Play Nintendo]].<ref>https://play.nintendo.com/news-tips/tips-tricks/mario-luigi-superstar-saga-bowsers-minions-tips-tricks/</ref>

*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 have their filename be called Presenter. 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.
