'''Pigs''' are animals that appear throughout the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise, but unlike their real world counterparts, Pigs are often shown to be anthropomorphic or capable of speech.


'''Pigs''' are animals in the [[Earth|Real World]]. They also appear in the [[MarioWiki: Marioverse|Marioverse]], in multiple games. They first appeared in ''[[Super Mario Land 2: Six Golden Coins]]'', as bosses known as [[The Three Little Pigheads]], who were three Pigs that poked fun at the story of The Three Little Pigs. They next appeared in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' under the name of [[Li'l Oink]]s. These Pigs are used to get certain items. Appearing again, a strange hog like creature named [[Hoggus]] appears in ''[[Wario Land 4]]'', Hoggus could even make Pigs appear by sketching them on his pad. Pigs then appeared in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door]]'', which had [[Doopliss]] turning the citizens of [[Twilight Town]] into Pigs with the ring of a bell. Doopliss was defeated, and everybody was eventually turned back. [[Mr. Hoggle]], an anthrpomorphic Pig, also ran, ironically, a [[Hot Dog]] stand in [[Glitzville]]. In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' there are several foes that resemble pigs (such as [[Squiglet]] and [[Pigarithm]]).

Gloomer is turned into a Pig

In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Doopliss turns the citizens of Twilight Town into Pigs with the ring of a bell. When Doopliss is defeated, everyone is turned back. The title of the chapter in which these events take place is called "For Pigs the Bell Tolls", which is a reference to the novel written by Ernest Hemingway called For Whom the Bell Tolls. Unlike nearly every other character in the game, the pigs of Twilight Town are three-dimensional in nature, and are nearly identical to Li'l Oinks from Paper Mario, albeit with red eyes likely to denote their cursed status.
