Albatoss is an enemy which first appears in Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic and its overseas conversion Super Mario Bros. 2. Its name is a pun on Albatross, referring to how an Albatoss attacks using Bob-ombs.
In Super Mario series[]
Super Mario Bros. 2[]
Albatosses first appear in Super Mario Bros. 2 and throw Bob-ombs at the player and were forced by Wart to be one of his minions and trained them on Bob-ombs. Albatosses can be defeated by either throwing vegetables at them or running into them when in a Starman form. When they swoop down low enough, the player can jump onto Albatoss and ride it. The player is also required to complete World 6-2 by riding an Albatoss. Unlike many other enemies, Albatosses cannot be picked up and thrown.
Super Mario Bros. 3[]
Though not a major appearance, the king of Sky Land turned into an Albatoss in the Super Mario Bros. 3 remakes. He just turns into a vulture in the Nintendo Entertainment System version.
In other media[]
The Super Mario Bros: Super Show![]
Albatosses make a few appearances in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!, that being when they are ordered by King Koopa to throw Bob-ombs.
