'''Ukikis'''<ref>As renamed in ''Yoshi's New Island'', ''Yoshi's Woolly World'', and various ''Super Mario'' games.</ref> (initially spelled '''Ukkikis''',<ref>M. Arakawa. ''Super Mario 64'' Player's Guide. Page 9.</ref> though '''Ukiki the Monkey'''<ref>''Nintendo Magazine System'' (AU) Issue #52, page 42.</ref> was also in use), originally known as '''Grinders'''<ref name=guide>Miller, Kent, and Terry Munson. ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' Player's Guide, [[Media:SMW2 Guide 127.jpg|page 127]], and ''Tetris Attack''.</ref> and sometimes simply referred to as '''monkeys''',<ref>''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' stage titles, ''Yoshi's Island DS'' World 2 introduction, and various ''Super Mario'' games.</ref> are a species of monkey in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]]. They originally appeared in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', with ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' giving them a different name across languages and slightly different appearance. Due to this, it is possible they were not originally intended to be the same entity, but were merged in later games, starting with ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''.

Ukikis have frequently appeared as audience members in various sports games of the ''Super Mario'' franchise, such as in ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'', the [[Mario Baseball (series)|''Mario Baseball'' series]], and ''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]''.

==History==
===''Yoshi's Island'' series===
====''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' / ''Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3''====
[[File:Grinder SMW2YI sprite.png|frame]]
Grinders first appear in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and its remake, ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]''. They usually show up in jungle stages and attack [[Yoshi]] in a variety of ways, including spitting [[watermelon]] seeds and grabbing [[Baby Mario]]; when hit, they turn a darker shade of brown and run away. Some Grinders drop bombs, and were named '''Short Fuses''' in the [[Nintendo Power|Player's Guide]].<ref name=guide2>Miller, Kent, and Terry Munson. ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' Player's Guide, [[Media:SMW2 Guide 128.jpg|Page 128]].</ref> Others drop [[Needlenose]]s, and were named '''Seedy Sallies'''.<ref name=guide2/> Some Grinders are harmless and simply run around the stage, acting as a source of eggs; others swing in long chains. Fleeing Grinders jump onto vines and climb them as high as possible, jumping off and running if a Yoshi gets too close. Grinders can also swim slowly in water. Grinders can be stunned with [[Yoshi Egg|egg]]s or a stomp, after which Yoshi can defeat them by eating them or running over them while they are unconscious. However, they are difficult to eat while running because of their speed. Grinders cannot be defeated while in water, as stunning them instead causes them to "flail" in place. A larger Grinder that wears a red tie and attacks by throwing barrels (a clear reference to [[Donkey Kong]]) was planned, possibly as a boss, but is not implemented in any way in the final release, though its graphics can be found [[List of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island pre-release and unused content|unused]].

====''Yoshi's Island DS''====
[[File:Ukiki Yoshi's Island DS.png|frame|left]]
Ukikis make a reappearance in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''. One of them kidnaps [[Baby Peach]] at the beginning of the level [[Baby DK, the Jungle King!]]. They are all harmless, but are still difficult to catch due to their agility. If a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] goes near them, they immediately run away or climb away on nearby vines, though they usually stop once they make it off-screen. They can be stunned by jumping on top of them or by throwing eggs at them. They can be defeated by eating them, or by taking a second hit while they are stunned. Ukikis can be viewed in the Land Enemies exhibit in the Island Museum.
{{br}}

====''Yoshi's New Island''====
[[File:Ukiki Trouble in Clawdaddy Cove.png|thumb|An Ukiki in the top right corner of the screen]]
They once again appear in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]''. In this game, Ukikis can no longer be eaten (though they can still be defeated by other means, such as a [[Ground Pound]]), and are prominent in the stages [[Ukiki Jammin']] and [[Ukiki Trouble in Clawdaddy Cove]], though they also appear in other levels of [[World 3 (Yoshi's New Island)|World 3]], including [[Rise of the Nasty Nep-Enuts]], [[Harry Hedgehog's Labyrinth]], and [[Ride the Blarggwich]]. They remain almost entirely unchanged from ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''
{{br}}

===''Super Mario 64'' / ''Super Mario 64 DS''===
[[File:Ukiki 64.png|thumb|left|75px|A model of an Ukkiki from ''Super Mario 64'']]
[[File:SM64DS - Ukiki Screenshot.png|thumb|200px|Mario encounters an Ukkiki on Tall, Tall Mountain in ''Super Mario 64 DS''.]]
{{Quote2|Owwwuu! Let me go! Uukee-kee! I was only teasing! Can't you take a joke? I'll tell you what, Let's trade. If you let me go, I'll give you something really good. So, how about it?|Ukkiki|[[Super Mario 64]]}}
Ukkikis return in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and its remake, ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. Two of them inhabit the course [[Tall, Tall Mountain]]. One can be seen following [[Mario]] around and doing tricks. However, if Mario grabs him, he will steal [[Mario Cap|Mario's cap]] and wear it. He will also gain it if it is blown off Mario by the [[Fwoosh]] farther up the mountain. To get it back, Mario has to grab him again; this is made more difficult by the fact that the Ukkiki now runs away from Mario and jumps over him if he gets cornered.

In the [[Mystery of the Monkey Cage|second mission]] of Tall, Tall Mountain, Mario has to catch a different Ukkiki on the very top of the mountain. This one tries to run away from Mario, rather than bother or chase him. When caught, the monkey will promise to give Mario "something really good" if Mario lets him go. If the player accepts, the Ukkiki will make his way down to the cage (which has the course's [[Power Star]]) and jump on it, making it accessible for Mario to collect. This Ukkiki appears only when the second mission is selected.

Their ''Super Mario 64 DS'' design replaces the ''Super Mario 64'' design with a new one that resembles their artwork from ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' as their standard appearance for further games. With the introduction of different playable characters in ''Super Mario 64 DS'', one of the Ukkikis is also given an additional role during gameplay. If any character is wearing another character's [[cap]], the Ukkiki will take it. This will cause the disguised character to transform back to his normal self. An in-game glitch allows [[Wario]] to pick up the Ukkiki with the [[Metal Cap]]. Using this method, it is also possible to carry the Ukkiki into the water. If [[Yoshi]] eats him, he will tell Yoshi that he will give him a stomachache, but Yoshi can eat the other Ukkiki and spit him out for the Power Star.

According to [[list of Super Mario 64 pre-release and unused content|early text]] in leaked source code, the "nice" Ukkiki would have originally revealed that the "enemy" one is his naughty brother, '''Wakkiki'''.<ref>TCRF. [[tcrf:Development:Super Mario 64 (Nintendo 64)/Dialogue & Text|Development:Super Mario 64 (Nintendo 64)/Dialogue & Text]]. ''The Cutting Room Floor''. Retrieved April 9, 2022.</ref>
{{br|left}}
===''Tetris Attack''===
[[File:Poochy Tetris Attack.png|frame|A Grinder with [[Poochy]]]]
A Grinder appears in ''[[Tetris Attack]]'' alongside [[Poochy]] in every mode as one of [[Yoshi]]'s opponents. Due to a spell cast by [[Bowser]] and [[Kamek]] that brainwashed them, they tried to stop Yoshi on his adventure to stop Bowser. Once the Grinder is defeated, he and Poochy are freed from the spell and are unlocked as playable characters, though Poochy is used for the icon and the sound effects during gameplay.

===''Mario Kart 64''===
An Ukkiki makes a cameo appearance in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', where its silhouette is seen driving a bus in [[N64 Toad's Turnpike|Toad's Turnpike]].<ref>「ハイウェイバスの運転手（シルエット）は、『スーパーマリオ64』のウッキーです。」("''The highway bus driver (silhouette) is an Ukkiki from Super Mario 64.''") - [https://www.nintendo.co.jp/n01/n64/software/nus_p_nmkj/index2.html Official ''Mario Kart 64'' Japanese website]</ref> It wears a hat, making it resemble [[Diddy Kong]].

===''Mario Golf'' series===
[[File:MG64 Pin Shot Ukiki.png|thumb|An Ukkiki appearing after a Pin Shot in ''Mario Golf'']]
In the [[Mario Golf (series)|''Mario Golf'' series]], "Ukkiki" is one of the names on the scoreboard in both the [[Nintendo 64]] version of ''[[Mario Golf (Nintendo 64)|Mario Golf]]'' as well as the [[Game Boy Color]] version of ''[[Mario Golf (Game Boy Color)|Mario Golf]]''. Additionally, if the player gets a [[Pin Shot]] in the Nintendo 64 version, they will see an Ukkiki climbing down the flagpole.

===''Mario Party'' series===
====''Mario Party 3''====
In ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', Ukkikis make their ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' series debut and appear in the mini-game [[Picking Panic]], where they drop the cherries for the player to grab.

====''Mario Party 4''====
In ''[[Mario Party 4]]'', Ukikis make an appearance under their current name, keeping their look from ''Super Mario 64''. They appear on [[Koopa's Seaside Soiree]], on two junctions on either side of the board. Once a player reaches it, an Ukiki tosses a [[banana]] peel that the player immediately slips on. They are forced to continue in whichever direction they slipped in. Ukikis also appear in the [[minigame]] [[Tree Stomp]], in which they throw banana peels at players, cheering if one of them slips. They occasionally throw a [[Golden Banana|golden banana]] that makes any player who picks it up move faster for a while.

====''Mario Party 5''====
[[File:Ukiki Capsule.jpg|thumb|left|50px|The [[Ukiki Capsule]] in ''Mario Party 5'']]
{{quote|Ook...oookiii! (I used your capsules!)|Ukiki|Mario Party 5}}
In ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', they appear in the minigame [[Chimp Chase]], in which four variants of Ukikis make an appearance: gray, blue, red and very rare gold ones. Besides a difference in appearance, they all behave the same. In the minigame, baby Ukikis are running around, and they have to be grabbed and delivered to the adult Ukiki that is colored correspondingly to it. Delivering a baby to the wrong adult makes them scream in rage, paralyzing the player who delivered the baby and freezing all of the baby Ukikis of the same color. Golden baby Ukikis occasionally appear, running much faster than the others, and not only can they be delivered to any adult, but they are also worth more than the others. An [[Ukiki Capsule]] also appears; using it, whether by throwing it onto a space and landing on it or used directly on the player for ten [[coin]]s, summons an Ukiki that randomly selects another player and throws all of their [[Orb|capsule]]s onto random board spaces.
{{br|left}}

====''Mario Party 6''====
[[File:MP6 Mario.jpg|thumb|An Ukiki with [[Mario]] in ''Mario Party 6'']]
In ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', Ukikis appear in [[Castaway Bay]] hosting a special [[coin]]-collecting minigame. They also appear in various minigames such as [[Snow Brawl]] in the day, where they act as allies to the solitary player, and [[Strawberry Shortfuse]], where they deliver plates with either cakes or explosives. They also appear in the Memory Quiz, the Variety Quiz, the Comparison Quiz, and the Counting Quiz of [[Speak Up]].

====''Mario Party Advance''====
[[File:MPA See Monkey Screenshot.png|thumb|left|A group of Ukikis in [[See Monkey?]]]]
{{quote2|Ook! You found me! That's my [[Akiki]]!|Ukiki|[[Mario Party Advance]]}}
In ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'', Ukiki is the mayor of the [[jungle area]], and lives with his niece [[Akiki]] in the [[Ukiki House]]. According to his description, he is fond of baked goods and adores children. Wanting to play a prank on Akiki, he writes a letter saying that he's been kidnapped, along with a hint on where he is located ("bIg teAM cAT leaTHEr fLAKE!? blarmpot"; the capital letters spell out "I AM AT THE LAKE"). After leaving it at his house, he goes to hide at [[Loch Dorrie]]. Akiki, however, started to panic, not realizing that it was meant to be a surprise, and asks the player to help her find Ukiki. At the loch, Ukiki jumps out, expecting Akiki to be there, but is surprised himself to find the player. After the situation is explained to him, he apologizes for the confusion, giving the [[Mini Maze]] [[Gaddget]] as compensation, before running back to Akiki. The ending credits state that Ukiki resigned as mayor, though he is still on good terms with Akiki.

Ukikis also appear in the minigame [[See Monkey?]], which involves saving ten Ukikis from drowning in a lake while the player rides in a boat. Once the player come into contact with an Ukiki, they are given a lifebuoy and get attached to the boat. The minigame is failed if any of the Ukikis are missed once the time limit runs out.
{{br|left}}

====''Mario Party 7''====
[[File:UkikiMP7.png|thumb|Some Ukikis cleaning the floor]]
In ''[[Mario Party 7]]'', Ukikis appear as the main hazard in the [[Apes of Wrath]] minigame, as well as in the background of the forest-themed Duel minigames like [[Camp Ukiki]]. They also cameo in the backgrounds of the Minigame Cruise, cleaning the [[MSS Sea Star]], and the [[Royal Rumpus]] minigame, playing on swing sets. This is the first ''Mario Party'' game where Ukikis consistently appear in their ''Yoshi's Island'' design.

}}
In ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', Ukikis appear in [[DK's Treetop Temple]], where they are summoned if a player lands on an [[Event Space]]. They roll down the stage on barrels, chasing anyone in their path and sending them to a lower part of the board. In [[Star Battle Arena]], they will run over anyone in their path, taking ten coins from them. Mechanical Ukikis appear in the minigame [[Flip the Chimp]], with each player controlling an Ukiki; they have to make their Ukiki climb to the top of a tree while avoiding falling coconuts. They also appear in the battle minigame [[Snipe for the Picking]], where two Ukikis are seen turning cranks in the introductory cutscene, and also at the ending cutscene where they carry away the losers, and in the duel minigame [[Cardiators]] on the "2" card and the "6" card. If the "2" card is chosen, a single Ukiki attacks the opposing player for two damage, and if the "6" card is chosen, three Ukikis attack the opposing player for six damage.

====''Mario Party: The Top 100''====
Ukikis return in ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', in the minigame [[Strawberry Shortfuse]] from ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', and have the same role.

====''Mario Party Superstars''====
Ukikis reappear in ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'', in the minigame [[Picking Panic]] from ''Mario Party 3'', and have the same role. They are one of the collectible encyclopedia pages.
{{br|left}}

===''Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix''===
Ukikis appear in ''[[Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix]]'' in the [[Banana Storm]] minigame. They can drop bananas, which Mario or [[Luigi]] collects, and [[Spiny (Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix)|Spinies]], which stun Mario or Luigi.

===''Yoshi's Woolly World'' / ''Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World''===
[[File:Ukiki Yoshi's Woolly World.png|thumb|75px|left|An Ukiki from ''Yoshi's Woolly World'']]
Yarn-like versions of Ukikis appear in ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' and ''[[Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', where they resemble their in-game sprites from ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'', instead of their artwork from said game like most appearances. Once again, they cannot be eaten, but can be defeated via other means. In addition to spitting watermelon seeds, the Short Fuse type also appears in this game. Ukikis are one of the kinds of enemies to get bound by yarn. They are seen in the levels [[Monkeying Round and Round]] and [[A Little Light Snowfall]].
{{br|left}}

===''Yoshi's Crafted World''===
[[File:YCW Ukiki.png|thumb|75px|Several Ukikis on a vine in ''Yoshi's Crafted World'']]
Ukikis return in ''[[Yoshi's Crafted World]]'' where they are seen in two levels: [[Jumping to Victory]] and [[Bombs Away on Pirate Island]]. They behave like in previous games and are often seen on vines. Short Fuses return and a new kind of Ukiki that tosses down Yoshi Eggs appears. A [[Kong]]-like Ukiki known as [[Uckykong]] makes an appearance, as well as a blue variant called [[Snow Ucky Kong]]. Unlike previously, spitting them out on water can defeat them.
