'''Foos''' are white cloud-like enemies that first appeared in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. They produce fog that can obscure the player's view. Foos can be defeated with any kind of attack. Their name is derived from [[Fwoosh]], another wind-blowing enemy from ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and its [[Super Mario 64 DS|remake]].

===''Super Mario'' series===
====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
[[File:NSMBW World 7-5 Screenshot.png|230px|thumb|left|A group of Foos fire clouds at [[Mario]]]]
''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' marks Foos' debut appearance. They appear only in [[World 7-5 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 7-5]], and create fog periodically. The fog vanishes after a few seconds and can be blown away either by [[Spin Jump]]ing or by propelling as [[Propeller Mario]].

====''New Super Mario Bros. U''====
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', Foos appear only in [[Snaking above Mist Valley]] and behave the same as they did previously.

=====''New Super Luigi U''=====
Foos also appear in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]''. Here, they are only found in [[Three-Headed Snake Block]].

===''Mario Party 10''===
Foos play a role in the ''[[Mario Party 10]]'' minigame [[Foo Me Once]], where they blow fog to obscure the buttons displayed on the platforms which the players need to remember in order to safely traverse across.

===''Dr. Mario World''===
In ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'', Foos appear in the background of World 15 once an area has been cleared.

==Trivia==
*In some early trailer footage of ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', the white part of [[Twister]] had a cloudy appearance resembling a Foo with elements of [[Ty-foo]]'s design.<ref>Nintendo (February 13, 2019). [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AjJWzJC8Kfk&t=39s Super Mario Maker 2 - Announcement Trailer - Nintendo Switch]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved February 13, 2019.</ref> This resemblance was closer in the ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' style, where they lacked the blue cheeks and had pink lips.<ref>Nintendo (May 15, 2019).
