A fun fact about Mario 64 is that Bullet Bill, although not really a rare enemy, only appears ONCE, in Whomp’s Fortress which is a bit bizarre

Bowser realized that Flame Chomps can blow themselves up and ordered them to stay away from Mario but some didn't listen

I think Flame Chomps are rare enemies because of how difficult they are to deal with. Not only are they airborne, but also erratic and can't always be safely jumped on because you have to watch for the position of their tail. If that wasn't enough, they can also spit out fireballs. But there's more™ If they run out of fireballs, they will start chasing you and explode. Meaning that they only really work as isolated, super-enemies.

I like how the shark doesn't go out of its way to hurt you. Dude is just having a good time

Fire Bro in SMB3 needs a shout out as well, since they only appear twice in the game and both spots are technically misable. Also the Big Boo Boss in Donut Secret House in SMW.

"I don't count these since they are summoned by a boss" *Includes Donkey Kong* "I don't count gold enemies since they only appear when transformed" *Includes transformed cats*

The flame chomps might be an Easter egg to Mario fans to see who would recognize them from such a small appearance.

I feel like the Moneybag from Super Mario 64 deserved to be in this list, it only appears once and you can easily miss it.

I think the Chuckyas in 64 need a mention. I have never seen a Chuckya ever appear again outside of that game. Also weren't Koopa Troopas rare in 64? I always found it strange there was only two in the whole game. Very underused and couldn't hurt Mario, but I believe Red ones would have been able to (if they were added)

The reason the Unagi is so rare is because it's usually too busy hanging around Kyoshi Island.

You can interact with lava cheep cheeps in SMS. Because they deal damage when they hit you, and because that damage gives you i-frames, you can get hit by one, land in the lava, and immediately dive under to start lava swimming. Lava in this game is just water with a death plane on top of it, but it's a wierd death plane which only kills you when it tries to deal damage. If you're still flashing from the cheep cheep damage, you have time to escape the death plane. You can then swim to the end of the level, using i-frames from air loss to come to the surface and refill your air bar periodically.

These things are always weird to me. They're almost all iconic and/or basic enough that I recognize them immediately (with the exception of the fake item boxes), yet I never give them a second thought because of that. Contrast that with something like say, Majora's Mask, where there's a lot of unique enemies that genuinely do leave an impression on me (like eyegore, death armos, and kejiron) despite being far from the first thing I think about whenever I think about the game as a whole.

The rarest enemy in Mario Galaxy you forgot to mention is the giant goomba that appear only once in the game, at the begining, upon death, it give you the key that lead you to the first grand star's room.

I know it's usually not considered a Mario title, but Yoshi's Island is just packed with great rare and one-off enemies (with the GBA-exclusive stages getting many of them a bit more screen time). The Grim Leechers that reverse your controls, the game's single Chain Chomp (which hides the game's only 2-player content), the Blindfold Boo and Boo Balloon, Thunder Lakitu, Harry Hedgehogs...Even regular Goombas only turn up in one stage in this game.

I figured the angry sun in SMB 3 would be included but I didn’t know there are enemies rarer than that one

Flame Chomp is from SMB3 originally.

My idea about the flame chomp is that it was a fan idea, scrapped idea that came back, or a mistake in the code that inspired someone at Nintendo

For SMG2 there's also the Kleptoads. They appear exclusively in a single secret mission in the Hightail Falls Galaxy.

Aren't the flame chomps rare in SMB3 too? I can only remember them being in one level.

I feel like the Tail Bob-Omb from 3D Land is also pretty rare. They only show up in a few levels if memory serves me.

I can't tell you how much I love this channel! Once I retire from the service, I have been inspired to make a channel like this but also continue the blend of music.

In NSMB, Squigglers only show up in 7-A, while they do appear elsewhere in the series. On the other hand, Kab-ombs are only seen in 8-8 and are never seen again at all.

17:10 it shows up twice. One time in overworld and one time in a subarea

Chain chomps in NSMBDS are also extremely rare, as only three of them appear in the entire game, all of them in world 6-6. Also bring back flame chomp Nintendo, we need more of him!

The boohemoth in NSMB2 is also pretty rare. It only appears in two ghost houses. It is the largest boo in the Mario franchise, it unfortunately didn't make it to a lot of other games.

I feel you should have mentioned bullet bills when you were talking about Mario 64 since they also only appear once. As for Mario Galaxy 2, I think you cpuld have included those digging moles that only appear once and there's only two

I feel like this guy can't go one video without mentioning how New Super Mario Bros was the "Return to 2D roots"

Should probably be worth mentioning that while a lot of these enemies are rare, some of them have appeared in multiple titles. The fire bros were in SMB3 in a similarly rare appearance. It's the same with the sumo bros being in one level in Super Mario World.

Love the video! It's always cool to see recaps of old games in new interesting ways. I'd like to add though, Bowser's brother, from the lost levels. I don't think he's ever had a reappearance except as a blue Bowser skin in some spinoff games.

I think the flame chomps being so rare is probably an inside Nintendo tradition at this point. Probably just something the older devs tell the newer ones and they follow suit

Klepto actually shows up twice in SMO, once in lost kingdom, and once in a sub area.

The funniest part is that the flame chomp is in smash run of all things, of all enemies

new Super Mario Bros 2 there's actually another enemy that's actually hard to find to and that's the green money bags. They only appear a couple of times

A rare enemy in Super Mario World are the basic piranha plants, which were only seen in one level and they only faced downward and never upward, which is very unusual! Paragoombas are actually very rare in New Super Mario Bros. DS! I also thought the golden chomp appeared in two levels, Gusty Garden and Battle Rock.

noice video I love this content I need more of these rankings and every stuff you inspired me to replay 3d world and play more mario maker thank you

New Super Mario Bros also had a blue variant of the Koopa Troopa. It’s found only in the snow level of the Mario vs Luigi multiplayer mode and it rewards you with a blue shell when stomped on. It’s the only one of its kind in the game

I love the Dragoneels 15:30

I know technically it's not a Mario game but, in Luigi's Mansion I'd say the rarest enemy is the golden/yellow mouse. They spawn is mostly random and never guaranteed. You can on exception spawn a few with cheese in the room.

So arent the angry sun and big Bertha fish rare enemies in Mario 3 as well? Since they only show up in 1 or 2 levels.

What about the Hatopop, or even rarer Puncher from Super Mario Sunshine? Only two Hatopops appear in Noki Bay, and change locations each episode. There are only two punchers period in the game, with one appearing in the II Piantissimo race under the first pulley, and the other in the shadow mario chase in a certain alcove near the top of the west cliff

I love these videos. Good work!

Yay another video I love these

2:15 - Fun fact about Autobombs. There is an incredibly small chance that an autobomb will one-hit kill you as soon as it fires its shot. Not when you get hit -- when it fires the shot. The autobomb has to be at an exact vertical pixel position to do it, which can only happen when it's falling down some stairs. That's because the autobomb corrupts memory every time it fires a shot, and if it's at a very specific Y position, it corrupts Mario's vertical page value and warps him into the pit!

Flame chomp was rare in smb3, and so was the fire bro

The amount of time it would take to make these videos is amazing, you good sir have earned a like and a follow

Super Mario 3 and Super Mario World both had multiple levels that included more than one Flame Chomp. So they were actually almost a regular enemy in the earlier games. Along with the ball and chain versions

My exact type of video thank you so much for this

Very interesting to see this!

In Super Mario Odyssey Clepto appears twice, once in the story and once in a subarea, and you showed both :)

Bro you're such a nerd! I've been using as my mario content plug for a while now and i gatta say, i never really get tired of it. Good to hear nerds spreading words!

Great Video Mr.Copy Cat. thanks and much love to u and the channel

No mention of the regular piranha plants in Super Mario World? Only the upside down variant appear in like one level.

Flame Chomps retextured those black ball enemies that shoot fire in the DS Remake of SM64, so they're not that unknown.

It was a good watch. From other videos I’ve watched I think there’s a rarer one in the original super Mario bros. Apparently there’s a green cheep cheep briefly spawns in 7-3 near the bottom of the level and immediately falls down out of sight. At least that’s what I think. Could be wrong.

An enemy you forgot to mention from Galaxy 2 - I believe it's also located in Cosmic Cove The big Jellyfish, he appears once in Galaxy 2

How can you forget the angry sun?

Bold to assume Nintendo put the flame chomps there. They just appeared on their own, and chose to stay in secret areas to avoid being spotted by Nintendo.

What about those hopping snowmen in Cool Cool Mountain? There's literally only two right next to each other and they only appear in one level!

I think the Fuzzlers and Cat Fuzzlers are pretty uncommon, both only appearing in one level in their specific games

For 3D World, the fuzzy hordes that appear in 6-7 Fuzzy Time Mine and Flower-2 Floating Fuzzy Time Mind could be mentioned here, considering they only appear in 2 levels. Granted, they are more of a deadly obstacle than anything, in a similar vein to the rising lava you'd find in other games, but it's worth a mention.

The rarest enemy is my dad who went to get milk :(

There is a fire chomp in Mario 3, only in one level, and only for like 2 minutes, surprised that one wasn't pointed out.

Great video/list. I would've also included the Money Bags enemies from Super Mario 64, only two exist and are both in Snowman's Land.

For new super mario bros there is a blue coopa in the frozen world of VS mode which drops the shell bonus (it is in my opinion the rarest in the game ._.), and good vide

16:23 You forgot about the Porkupuffer fish that appears in the Rock-Candy Mines (World 6) and you didn't mention the ghost blocks even though you already mentioned them in a differnet game. You also missed the Purple Cheep Cheeps that continuously follow you.

No mention to the flying raven face at the end of SMB2? I guess it's technically a miniboss, but SMB2 reuses it's only other miniboss like crazy (even uses it as a normal enemy at times) and yet the crow face only appears once at the end coming out of nowhere, so it does still stand out to me as a honorable mention at least.

In Mario 1, I probably would have said the paratrooper that flies horizontally instead of vertically I think I've only seen them like once or twice. I know for sure they're on 7-3

I would also Put the Banzai Bill in Mario Galaxy, because if I remember correctly, they only appear in the final Level

I never tried the SMB3 eReader levels so I'm curious to see how that would affect these stats.

Big Bubba terrified me as a kid

The bloopers in Mario 1 can also be found in a couple of the overworld athletic levels. Also known as the 3rd levels in each world.

There’s the green bubbles you can swirl jump on in one of the ghost houses in Super Mario World

In SMB1 theres a Koopa that flies horizontally and only appears in one level.

9:35 blud really thought he did something wrong trying to kill an enemy made of fireballs using fireballs and he did it a couple times on 1 enemy

Could you do paper Mario for this type of video? Such as “all unique enemies only to paper Mario” That would be a great video!

I like how in the rpg and paper spinoffs they make new enemies for every game that still feel like mario enemies.

Great content.

You forgot about the sharks in the first aquatic level in nsmb DS, and also the boomerang bro. Good concept however !

Bro even the art for the Kurokyura is stylized and badass. Also u forgot Snufits, Cheep Cheeps, and Skeeters from Mario 64.

I feel like one that deserves a mention is those green blobs from super Mario world in the boo house

The baseball throwin' Chuck from SMW. Maybe it appears more than once. And cant remember if it's exactly like the regular? Also the dinosaurs that when stomped on turn little and breath fire.

For the algorithm, great video ❤ edit: this feels like shiny hunting now lol

Great video

Just came after two years, and his intro hasn't changed a bit haha

Chain chomps don’t originate in Mario 64 lol. First appearance was Mario 3

Corrupted Nikos? If it's spelled Nikos, you said it right, if it's spelled Neko's, you just offended a lot of people. There was like 2 or 3 other pronunciation errors, but that one was the biggest one. This, however, doesn't change how AWESOME this video was. Great watch, and hello to a new sub (that's been subbed for a couple years, but either way I'm subbed lol).

I believe snailicorn should also be mentioned for new super Mario bros as that is the only game they ever appear in and they’re only in a few levels

Here are some that I thought of: the Kab-ombs in NSMB only appear in world 8-8 and almost never reappear again. NSMB also has Snow Spikes which only appear in 5-1 and never come back in a mainline game (at least not yet). There's also the Balloon Boo from the world 4 ghost house which has yet to appear in another game.

In SMB3, You kinda missed the Fire Bros., Only appearing in the secret area of W-2

I thought Charging Chuck would be included for _Odyssey,_ considering that enemy only appears two or three times in the game

9:23 False. One time I was playing SMS, one of those fishes bumped into me, knocking me BELOW the lava, making Mario swimming in black void and made me lose air like I was underwater. The moment I surfaced, Mario died touching the lava. I only ever saw this once in my life and I played Sunshine quite a lot.

5:45 We’ll at one point Mario was more recognizable to children than Mickey Mouse sooooo maybe he didn’t like that very much.

A couple things: 1. Chain chomps were introduced with SMB3, *not* Super Mario 64. 2. Ninji were introduced with SMB2 (US), *not* Super Mario World.

Torpedo Ted definately doesnt have enough love in the SMB universe, but who loves doing their levels underwater?

New super Mario bros ds also had those boxing ghost, the fake item block enemy, sharks, and baby wigglers all of which only appeared in one level.

I have never heard anyone call them “bloobers” before 😂

Dude Mario predicted hisuian overquill

9:10 there’s the golden chain chomp in that village level as well

1:19 swimming around quite what
