Spiny Skipsqueaks are enemies which first appear in Super Mario 3D World.
Profile[]
Physical description[]
Spiny Skipsqueaks are a variant of Skipsqueaks with purple fur, yellow spikes on their back, and green feet.
Behavior[]
Spiny Skipsqueaks jog in place on rolling platforms and jump, just like regular Skipsqueaks. In Super Mario Maker 2, they can Triple Jump.
In Super Mario series[]
Super Mario 3D World[]
Spiny Skipsqueaks are first encountered inside the cave of Really Rolling Hills. Because they have spikes, Spiny Skipsqueaks cannot be defeated from a jump, although Rosalina's Star Spin or the effects of either a Super Bell, Fire Flower, or Tanooki Suit can defeat it. Defeating a Spiny Skipsqueak earns the player 200 points and one coin.
Super Mario Maker 2[]
Spiny Skipsqueaks are enemies exclusive to the Super Mario 3D World style. They jump whenever Mario does, like with Skipsqueaks. If an object such as a Thwomp or Track Block removes a Spiny Skipsqueak from its starting point, it attempts to return. If a Spiny Skipsqueak cannot pass an obstacle, even from a Triple Jump, it gives up and resets its movement pattern at its current location.
