Monty Moles (チョロプー, Choropū), are one of the major species in the Mario franchise. The moles tend to make their homes underground. In most Mario Party games, when Monty sticks its head out, Mario or one of his friends hits it on the head with a hammer. Monty Moles have even been made obstacles in the series and usually must be cleared by still whacking them on the head. Monty Mole has also appeared in Mario Superstar Baseball, Mario Super Sluggers, and as one of the obstacles in the Mario Kart series. In Mario Superstar Baseball and Mario Super Sluggers, Monty is one of the speedy players in both games, but is an unlockable character in Mario Superstar Baseball. The player must unlock Monty Mole in Mario Superstar Baseball by clearing the Challenge mode as Mario.

In the Super Mario series

Super Mario World

MontyMoleArt
Monty Mole Classic

Monty Moles first appear in Super Mario World. They pop out of random places in the ground in this game. Monty Moles can charge at Mario or Luigi to attack. Larger Monty Moles called Mega Moles, which the player can ride on also appear. Monty Moles can be defeated with any attack in Super Mario World, and can also be eaten by Yoshi. Monty Moles are commonly found early on in the game and appear less towards the end. Defeating a Monty Mole earns the player 200 points.

Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins

Though normal Monty Moles do not appear in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins, a confirmed relative of theirs named Ragumo does.

Super Mario All-Stars/Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3

In both of the remakes of Super Mario Bros. 3, the king of Ice Land is transformed into a Monty Mole. However, in Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3, normal Monty Moles would reappear as enemies exclusively in the World-e level Ground Work. They look and function exactly how they did in Super Mario World, however they can sometimes be plucked out of the ground in certain grass patches and be thrown.

Super Mario 64/Super Mario 64 DS

Monty Mole 64
Monty Mole DS

Monty Moles appear in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS, where they are found in Hazy Maze Cave and Tall, Tall Mountain. In this game, they can emerge from the ground, throw rocks at Mario, and after throwing rocks they disappear under the ground only to remerge and repeat the process again. Monty Moles can be defeated with any attack however, more keep coming so this just hasn’t done much.

In Super Mario 64 DS their appearance was changed to what would become the modern design, their behavior is also the same. A Mega Mushroom can be found in Hazy Maze Cave which can be used to trample over the Monty Moles every time they emerge from their holes to effectively earn infinite 1-Ups.

Super Mario Sunshine

Monty Mole Sunshine

Monty Moles appears as bosses in Super Mario Sunshine. They mainly operate a cannon and fire projectiles at Mario. The Monty Mole is first fought in Pinna Park during the second episode where it mainly fires Bullet Bills or Missile Bills at Mario. Once Mario gets close, the Monty Mole will start to chuck Bob-ombs at Mario attempting to blow him up. Mario must throw the Bob-ombs at the Monty Mole three times in order to defeat it. Another one is fought at Noki Bay during the first episode where it has corked up the waterfall and is firing huge amounts of goop around. Mario must climb up and defeat the Monty Mole the same way by throwing Bob-ombs at him in order to defeat him.

They pop out from holes in the ground and squeak. They sometimes come out all at one, making them quite dangerous.

Super Mario Kart

Monty Mole SMK sprite
Monty Mole Racing SNES

Monty Moles make their Mario Kart debut in the first entry of the series Super Mario Kart, where they are found in certain tracks such as Donut Plains 2 and Donut Plains 3.

A Monty Mole can be knocked away with items, although jumping in the kart a few times also shakes them off.

Monty Moles reappear in Mario Kart 64 to reprise their roles as obstacles retaining their behavior from before.

Trivia

  • Monty Moles are commonly associated with speed (though in Mario Strikers Charged they were in the slow catagory); not only can Monty Mole perform the ball dash in Mario Superstar Baseball, but also most Monty Moles in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time run speed-related obstacles. These constant references to fast Monty Moles may be throwbacks to Super Mario World, where Monty Moles could move at fast (but slippery) speeds.
  • In the Mario Baseball games, Monty Mole is a fast but weak character, However in Mario Strikers Charged, he is one of the strongest and slowest characters.
