'''Jellybeams'''<ref>Bueno, Fernando. ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 161.</ref> are a [[jellyfish]] enemy introduced in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. Their name is a pun on {{wp|jelly bean}}, as well as a portmanteau of "jellyfish" and "beam". Their appearance is reminiscent of [[Jelectro]]s from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''.

In ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', Jellybeams are only found in [[World 8-4 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 8-4]] and serve to illuminate the dark waters. They are found along with [[Stone Spike]]s, [[Cheep Cheep]]s, [[Deep Cheep|Deep-Cheeps]], [[Blooper]]s, and [[Bulber]]s.

Jellybeams move up and down slowly. Despite helping [[Mario]] to see underwater, they can also hurt him if Mario touches them. Jellybeams can be defeated with [[fireball]]s or a [[Super Star]]. Mario can also freeze them, causing them to stop moving, but they will continue to illuminate the water.

Jellybeams appear in the underwater segments of [[Sherbet Land (GCN)|<small>GCN</small> Sherbet Land]] and [[Dolphin Shoals]] in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. They illuminate the water around them but do not actively interact with drivers.

{{new subject|course|section=y}}
In ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', Jellybeams appear at the beginning of the underwater section of [[Piranha Plant Cove|Piranha Plant Cove 2]]. Like the [[Bumper (Mario Kart series)|bumpers]] in [[DS Waluigi Pinball]], they bounce away drivers who run into them, even if said drivers are under the effects of a [[Frenzy]], [[Mega Mushroom]], [[Bullet Bill]], or [[Super Star]]. Jellybeams grant bonus points when hit with an offensive item (except for a [[Banana]] or [[Giant Banana]]) or when simply driven into; if a driver lands on top of a Jellybeam, they additionally receive a [[Jump Boost]]. Most items, when thrown, break on contact with a Jellybeam, while others are bounced away (Bananas and Giant Bananas) and some pass through it ([[Bowser's Shell]]s and [[Giga Bob-omb]]s).
