Wiggler: Difference between revisions

}}

'''Wigglers''' (also known as '''Caterpillars''') are a species resembling large real-world caterpillars. They first appear in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', where they have a yellow coloration when calm, but turn red and run angrily about quickly if [[jump]]ed on. Wigglers, in all their types are easily identifiable by the characteristic flower or other plant growing from their head.

==Trivia==

*In the first ''Super Mario Galaxy'', if one flips a Wiggler over and stomps one of the body segments, only that body segment will flatten and it will explode into Star Bits. However, in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', if one does the same thing, the whole Wiggler gets flattened rather than just one body segment.

*In ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'', the Wiggler boss can change his front two feet into hands to use a watering can for one of his attacks, possibly implying that Wigglers can switch their front two feet between feet and hands whenever they want.

*In Wiggler's artwork for ''Mario Kart 7'', it has two hands, 6 feet, and 5 body sections, but in the game, when it is driving, it has four hands, 2 feet, and only 4 body sections. This is because its artwork is reused from ''Mario Super Sluggers''.

*In all seven installments in the [[Mario & Luigi (series)|''Mario & Luigi'' series]], a Wiggler boss is fought in a forest type area: [[Chucklehuck Woods]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga]]'', [[Vim Factory]] located in [[Toadwood Forest]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi Partners in Time]]'', [[Dimble Wood]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', [[Wakeport]] in''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', [[Gloomy Woods]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'', Chucklehuck Woods in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', and [[Dimble Wood]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]''.
