'''Biddybuds''' are common [[List of enemies|enemies]] first appearing in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. They resemble multicolored {{wp|Coccinellidae|ladybug}}s and appear in red, yellow, blue, green, and pink. In the platforming games, Biddybuds simply walk along the ground on a set path, though unlike the [[Goomba]]s in the game, they do not chase the player when they are in sight. They make alternating high- and low-pitched sounds that can be heard if the player is near them. These sounds are typically to the rhythm of the song that is playing in the level.

==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario 3D Land''====

Biddybuds first appear in [[World 1-3 (Super Mario 3D Land)|World 1-3]]. They mainly appear in groups of two to five and walk in a set pattern, often circular. Mario can defeat them with any type of attack. They also have a sub-species called [[Para-Biddybud]]s, which have wings and fly, similar to a [[Paragoomba]]. They are a common enemy, but not as common as Goombas are.
[[biddy buds are always in groups and are never found alone.]]

====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====
[[File:BiddybudSM3DW.jpg|thumb|150px|Biddybuds in ''Super Mario 3D World'']]
Biddybuds reappear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and its [[Nintendo Switch]] port ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''. They look and behave exactly like they do in ''Super Mario 3D Land'', though they are less common than they were originally. They now appear in larger groups than in ''Super Mario 3D Land''.

In the ''Bowser's Fury'' campaign of ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury'', Biddybuds with fur, tails, and cat ears appear in [[Lake Lapcat]] as enemies. These cat-like Biddybuds behave identically to their ordinary counterparts.

===''Mario Kart 8'' / ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''===
While Biddybuds themselves do not appear in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and its [[Nintendo Switch]] port ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', a kart called the [[Biddybuggy]] is based on their flying counterparts.

===''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker''===
Biddybuds reappear as enemies in ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'' and its [[Nintendo Switch]] and [[Nintendo 3DS]] [[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (Nintendo Switch / Nintendo 3DS)|ports]], where they act the same as they did in previous games.
{{br}}

===''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''===
Biddybuds reappear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'' as enemies. They appear in [[Sunbeam Plains]] and later [[Mount Brrr]]. They always battle in stacks. Biddybuds can attack by walking into one of the Mario Bros. in a straight line, or they can attack by walking in a stack, occasionally stumbling, causing them to slow down briefly. If they are jumped on while walking in a stack, every Biddybud in the stack will take damage. If the player uses [[Dropchopper]] or [[Cannonball Chuck]], the entire stack of Biddybuds will all take damage.

===''Mario Tennis Aces''===

Biddybuds reappear in ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]'' as nonplayable characters in the game's Adventure Mode, as spectators in the [[Piranha Plant Forest]] court.

===''Mario Golf: Super Rush''===
Biddybuds appear in ''[[Mario Golf: Super Rush]]'' where they act as obstacles in [[Wildweather Woods]]. In Speed Golf, they will slow players down when bumped into but can also be jumped on to gain coins.
{{br}}

===''The Super Mario Bros. Movie''===
[[File:TSMBM Biddybuds.jpg|thumb|Biddybuds in ''The Super Mario Bros. Movie'']]
Three Biddybuds can be seen briefly walking by towards the beginning of ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]''. They appear upon [[Mario]]'s first meeting with [[Toad]], causing a concerned and frightened Mario to jog away from them and follow Toad. They are featured in promotional posters for the film, including Mario's standalone poster. Unlike in the games, these Biddybuds are not part of the Koopa Troop, but are instead part of the Mushroom Kingdom's wildlife.
