Other Appearances

Mario & Luigi series

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

Viruses are first seen in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga where they are only fought in Woohoo Hooniversity. In battle, they mainly attack by trying to bite either Mario or Luigi. If this attack isn't blocked back, the Virus may poison the brother. They are also defeated when all of the viruses in each battle is the same color. Viruses are seen briefly in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story where they are one of the Toothy's attacks.

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team

Viruses are fairly common in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team where they are seen only in the areas when Mario and Luigi are searching for the five pieces of the Ultibed, but some appear in Wiggly's area. The Viruses always fight in groups and they attack mainly by charging at Mario and Luigi. They are defeated normally or by placing them in 3 same colors in a row.

Dr. Luigi

The Viruses are set to reappear in this game where they serve as the main enemies. Also, their designs have completely changed since their last appearances.
