'''Pendrils''' are [[penguin]]s with dentistry drills instead of beaks who appear at [[Plack Beach]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]''. They resemble [[Bumpty|Bumpties]] save for their beaks, and also have a similar body and eye shape to [[Monty Mole]]s. Their name is a pun on "penguin" and "drill."

Only [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] can fight the Pendril. [[Bowser]] never sees them because he never enters battles with [[Drillbit Crab]]s nor can he explore the cliffside of Plack Beach where Pendrils are most common. They attack by diving underground and then popping out of the ground before nose diving into one of the Mario Bros. Sometimes when they resurface, a rock will be stuck on their nose. If one of the Mario Bros. attack them with the rock stuck on them, the rock will shatter and a [[Bob-omb]] will run at the one who attacked. Eventually, the Pendril will dive back into the ground and have the rock off their beak. Pendrils do not appear in the overworld at all and can only be encountered if Mario and Luigi fight a Drillbit Crab, but only in the cliffside area of Plack Beach where [[Chakron]] resides.

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', they can be counterattacked upon being hit by one of the Bros.'s hammers. They also appear in the ''Bowser Jr.'s Journey'' mode as enemies, although they only appear in [[Drill Storm]] for one round.

*If the player hacks the original ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' with Bowser battling one, when it attacks, as the Pendril ends the attack, the game will freeze, forcing the player to reset.
