Template:Species-infobox Porcu-Puffers appeared in Super Mario World, where they would follow Mario and Luigi in the water. The Mario Bros. could perform the Spin Jump on them to "ride" them, or use Yoshi. They resemble giant Cheep-Cheeps with blue spikes all over their backs. They appear in three levels, the secret level on top of the Vanilla Dome, and a secret area in the Cookie Mountain level. They also appear in a hidden area from Chocolate Island 1.
After a long hiatus, these enemies reappear in the game New Super Mario Bros. Wii. Here, they attack exactly the same as Spike Bass, lying near the surface to pursue the plumber and his party or even leaping from the water to attack. Porcu Puffers serve as obstacles for World 4, and they appear again in World 6 in level 6-5 and later in World 9 in level 9-2. They can be frozen, but they won't stay frozen for long much like a Spiny Cheep-Cheep.
One appears in Super Mario Galaxy 2 in the Cosmic Cove Galaxy.
A similar species called Puffer-Cheeps appeared in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga.
Trivia
- Porcu-Puffer is a portmanteau of 'porcupine' and 'puffer' (pufferfish).
- A puffer fish resembling a Porcu-Puffer is found in Drip Drop Galaxy in an underwater chest in Super Mario Galaxy.
