Kodeka Maimai[1] are bigger versions of Swirlypods in Super Mario Bros. Wonder and are introduced in the level Swamp Pipe Crawl. Much like their normal counterparts, they slowly crawl along the ground and walls. When stomped on, they are launched out of their shells, much like Beach Koopas, and, after recovering from the dizziness, attempt to get back in it. Unlike their smaller counterparts, their shell can only be picked up by Elephant Mario.
