| | 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]]. |

| '''Raccoons'''<ref>{{cite|author=Hodgson, David S J, Bryan Stratton, and Stephen Stratton|title=''Super Mario Sunshine'' Prima's Official Strategy Guide|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|page=40|date=September 3, 2002|language=en-us|isbn=0-7615-3961-1}}</ref> are a race of plump creatures found on [[Isle Delfino]] in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. They are based on the {{wp|Japanese raccoon dog}}, known in Japanese as the tanuki. Their design is inspired by tanuki statues seen across Japan; the sun hat, shirt/coat, tail, and sash are all trademarks of the statues.
| | The Tanooki are actually based on a mythical Japanese animal known as the tanuki, which was plump, raccoon-like, and a shape-shifting trickster. |

| ==History==
| | In [[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]], there are Goomba enemies, known as [[Tanoomba]]s. They look half Tanooki, half Goomba. |
| ===''Super Mario Sunshine''===
| |
| In ''Super Mario Sunshine'', the [[boathouse]] in [[Delfino Plaza]] is run by two Raccoons, a father and his son. Ten [[Blue Coin]]s can be traded there in exchange for one [[Shine Sprite]]. The father accepts Blue Coins only in increments of ten, and if [[Mario]] tries to ask for a Shine Sprite for fewer than ten Blue Coins, the father exclaims that he cannot sell the Shine Sprites at such a low price. Additionally, another Raccoon owns a small [[mudboat]] rental shop in [[Noki Bay]]. According to a [[sign]] near the shop, the boats can be rented for 90,000 [[coin]]s, though after Mario [[Uncork the Waterfall|uncorks the waterfall]], the owner states that he is allowed to use them for free. There are only three Raccoons, which are one of the least populous species on Isle Delfino. | |
