Blarggs are fairly rare, and they are encountered primarily in the [[Vanilla Dome]]. When [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] approach a Blargg on a [[Lava Lift|Skull Lift]], the eyes of the Blargg will be visible before they dip back into the lava, moments before lunging. [[Yoshi]] is capable of jumping on them and, with some difficulty, eating them. The player can also opt to [[Spin Jump]] if lacking a Yoshi, although this method only prevents one from taking damage if landing on a Blargg or its eyes. It is possible for [[Invincible Mario]] to defeat one in Vanilla Dome 1 before falling into the lava. [[Cape Mario|Caped Mario]] can also defeat it with a Body Press attack before falling into the lava. These methods reveal a glitched sprite. | ||
In the source code of pre-release builds, Blarggs went through many design iterations of varying sizes, as both a dinosaur like in the final and as a shark.<ref>{{cite|url=x.com/GamingAlexandri/status/1286735053180018688|title= | In the source code of pre-release builds, Blarggs went through many design iterations of varying sizes, as both a dinosaur like in the final and as a shark.<ref>{{cite|url=x.com/GamingAlexandri/status/1286735053180018688|title=X post showing early SMW tiles|author=Gaming Alexandria|publisher=X|language=en|accessdate=July 25, 2020}}</ref> | ||
