Phantos appear as semi-common enemies in ''Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic'', ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', and subsequent [[reissue]]s. They are seen guarding keys in caves or in [[jar]]s. They first appear in [[World 1-2 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 1-2]]. Phantos simply remain immobile and harmless until the player takes the key they are guarding, at which point one of the Phantos will animate and ceaselessly chase them; some of the remakes make this Phanto slightly different in appearance from the others. Phantos can follow the player through other screens and rooms, even including [[Subspace]]; they cannot be permanently defeated, either—a Phanto can be temporarily defeated only with the combination of a [[Stop Watch]] and a [[Super Star|Starman]], but a new one will replace it as soon as the player enters another room while carrying the key. If the player drops the key while a Phanto is chasing them, it flies away and leaves them alone until they pick up the key again; it will only give up the chase for good once the door is unlocked. | Phantos appear as semi-common enemies in ''Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic'', ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', and subsequent [[reissue]]s.

In remakes, larger Phantos can be seen in the backgrounds of the key rooms; the eyes of these larger Phantos will glow red repeatedly once the key is grabbed. In the [[Super Mario Advance|Game Boy Advance remake]], if the player drops or uses the key or loses a life, the Phanto appears to fly toward the camera as it leaves, via usage of an altered sprite that is twice as large as the original. Furthermore, Phantos can be defeated in said version from an [[Invincible Mario|invincible]] character. | ||
