'''Sluggy the Unshaven''' is a massive [[Sluggy]] found in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. He is a mid-boss encountered in the fort of [[World 5 (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|World 5]]. He is a see-through slug with a face, hair in various places and a visible, and hairy, heart | '''Sluggy the Unshaven''' is a massive [[Sluggy]] found in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. He is a mid-boss encountered in the fort of [[World 5 (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|World 5]]. He is a see-through slug with a face, hair in various places and a visible, and hairy, heart. The hair growing his heart is likely a reference to the Japanese idiom「心臓に毛が生えている」(''shinzō ni ke ga haeteiru''), which literally translates to "hair growing from the heart" and figuratively means "to be shameless". Like regular Sluggies, Sluggy the Unshaven sports eyelashes in his official artwork, but lacks them in-game. Unlike his smaller counterparts, however, this is not attributable to graphical limitations on account of his large size. To defeat him, the [[Yoshi (species)|Yellow Yoshi]] has to throw [[egg]]s at his heart, pushing through his gelatinous skin. He was originally a tiny, nontransparent Sluggy until [[Kamek]] used his magic on him. | ||
In Sluggy's open-air room is an [[Egg Plant]]. However, he is at the very edge of the room. Once Yoshi has collected enough eggs, the player must lob eggs at the slug's skin. Every time an egg hits the skin, he is pushed inward and the egg bounces off. Yoshi can then pick up the egg and lob it again. Once the skin is pushed back enough, Yoshi can shoot Sluggy's heart (which is the slug's weak point). With each hit, Sluggy's heart beats faster. After four hits, the heart shrinks until it pops, and Sluggy the Unshaven's body slides off the stage. | In Sluggy's open-air room is an [[Egg Plant]]. However, he is at the very edge of the room.
