Talk:Morty Mole
Morty Moles are Mega Moles
Morty Moles was just a rename and they are Mega Moles IGN even said they were and I think they are they just have darkish brown fur as well as no glasses and the prima gudide makes mistakes on names for example sledge bro was named "Sumo Bro." in New Super Mario Bros. and New Super Mario Bros. 2 manual. I know they behave diffrent instead of riding there heads and there slow but it's not comfirmed that they are Seperated enemies so I kinda think this should be a section for mega moles instead of a seperate page. gamermakerguy (talk)
- They have separate pages because the Japanese names are different. Raven Effect (talk)
Excuse Me?
Why on Earth were these merged? Sure they're both giant Monty Moles, but they look different, act different, have different names in both English and Japanese, and overall are only similar in that they're large subspecies of Monty Moles. Was this discussed? I don't think it was, I never saw anything like that. This needs reversed. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 01:10, 18 July 2017
- It doesn't look like it was. In fairness, however, the new Japanese name is currently unconfirmed, and having it all as one article does solve the problem of which article if any would cover the big Monty Mole from Super Mario Maker (which is more than I can say for, say, Parabuzzy, where the winged Buzzy Beetle as of said game seems to fluctuate articles on editors' whims as a result of the older split from Para-Beetle). Still, this may not be clear-cut enough to have been done without a proposal, so if you want to formalize it with one, I think now would be as good a time as any.

Split Mega Mole from Morty Mole
These need split up again. the only similarities between the two is that they're large Monty Moles and have three strands of hair, but neither of them even have the same design as Monty Mole.
Mega Mole has sunglasses, a long pointy mole-like nose (which admittedly all Moles had back then) halfway up the body, a smug lower lip, were the same palette as Monty, and had a white area that goes all the way to the base of the cheeks.
Morty Mole has the same eyes as Monty, a tooth and small lower lip, a gopher-like nose high up on its body (which current Monties and the original artwork for Monties had), a red and tan palette, and said tan area only covers part of the belly.
They also act completely different, with Mega Mole basically being a moving platform that can cause damage and Morty Mole acting like Rex. They also have different names in English and ostensibly Japanese, although I still see the SMG "Monty" split from Rocky Wrench despite being even more similar and having an unconfirmed Japanese name. There's just really not enough similar about them to assume they're the same species, especially since they're both from the same subseries, and not a weird-acting Paper Mario version. As for the "Mega Monty Moles" of Mario Party: Star Rush, they should probably just remain under the regular Monty Mole page.
