The Tanooki are a race of rather plump raccoon-like creatures, found primarily on Isle Delfino. In Super Mario Bros. 3, one of the many power-ups Mario gains is the Tanooki Suit, and in Super Mario Sunshine the Blue Coin shop is run by a Tanooki. Additionally, a Tanooki owns a small rowboat shack in Noki Bay.
The Tanooki are actually based on a mythical Japanese animal known as the tanuki, which was plump, raccoon-like, and a shape-shifting trickster.
In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, there are Goomba enemies, known as Tanoombas. They look half Tanooki, half Goomba.
