'''Pinwheels''' are aquatic creatures that appear in the [[Wario Land (series)|''Wario Land'' series]]. They dwell in bodies of water and try to impede [[Wario]]'s progress throughout the game. They resemble tiny seahorses of red colour and possess spiked backs. One of their abilities is curling up into a ball.

Their only appearance has been during the events of ''[[Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3]]''. Pinwheels bear a resemblance to [[Yurarin]] and [[Yurarin Boo]] of ''[[Super Mario Land]]'', which implies that they are related somehow.

Wario encounters Pinwheels during his thieving adventure in ''Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3''. They appear as spiked seahorses native to water levels. Their first appearance is in [[Mt._Teapot#Course_No._7|Course No. 7]] of the [[Mt. Teapot]] region. They can be seen patroling some water areas of the game, and will curl up to a spiked ball to attack Wario when they see him. Although they oppose Wario, they bear no sign of being affiliated with [[Captain Syrup]] and the [[Black Sugar Gang|Brown Sugar Pirates]], so it can be assumed that they attack Wario merely because he crossed their turf, instead of being motivated personally.
