'''Elite Pestnuts''' are small, round, [[urchin]]-like enemies that appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and the remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''. They are the stronger variety of [[Pestnut]]s, and only appear in battle alongside [[Blooper]]s on the [[Oho Ocean Seabed]]. The original game simply called them '''Pestnuts''' like their base counterparts; the remake of the game gives them their current name

Elite Pestnuts are covered in spikes like regular Pestnuts, making them impossible to [[jump]] on, unless [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] wear any of the "Spiny-Killer Jump" [[Badge]]s. They share the same attack pattern as well, with two rolling attacks that much each be dodged with a jump or countered with a [[hammer]]; the attacks come faster and deal more damage in addition to possibly [[poison (status effect)|poisoning]] the Mario Bros. on contact.

After the Elite Pestnut takes enough damage, the outer shell breaks, revealing a [[Beanie]] or [[Gold Beanie]] underneath. However, once this happens they will float up to the surface; in the 3DS remake, they will drown instead. In both cases, this counts as defeating the foe and still gives out the usual item and coin drops.

Elite Pestnuts also appear as enemies in ''Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser''. They are melee troopers, and attack by rolling into their opponents. Their special skill is Spin to Win, allowing them to roll into a minion three times. Due to their spikes, attacking a Pestnut from the side or from above cause damage to the minion. Elite Pestnuts are weak against [[Spear Guy]]s.
