Fawfloppers are grasshopper-like creatures that resemble Fawful who appear in Blubble Lake in the game Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. The enemy's name comes from a pun on Fawful's name mixed with "grasshopper." They have green and yellow bodies, Fawful's grin and glasses, and large spring-loaded hind legs. In the field, Fawfloppers hop around, generally aimlessly with nothing to grab their attention, but towards an intruder in their territory if there is one. Bowser can defeat these enemies without fighting them in the overworld. All Bowser has to do is walk over one to defeat the creature and earn some coins. This means Mario and Luigi exclusively can fight these creatures. A Fawflopper has two attacks, both of which are jumping attacks. Its main attack is lunging at a brother. It will first look at the brother before striking. This attack is countered with a jump. However, the Fawflopper may laugh before it does its attack, meaning it is going to jump over the bro, causing no damage if the bro does not jump. Its other attack includes defying gravity and hopping above the bro little by little. It will then try to fall on top of the bro. This attack can be countered with the hammer. The Fawflopper will look at the targeted brother before striking. Aside from the defense icons being different between the Fawflopper's attacks in the DS version and how the Bros. pull out their hammers to block the stomp attack and do not for the lunging jump attack, the player will know which attack will be coming as the Fawflopper gathers energy before looking at its target when it uses the former but not the latter.
