In battle, Pwallops can spit out a yellow (cyan in the remake) ball that they use their clubs to send to a bro. If they have their eyes closed when they swing, they will miss and then immediately strike again. This attack is faster than the Protobatter's version and the attack must be countered with the [[hammer]]. If the Pwallop does a backhand swing, Mario is the target, but if they do an openhanded swing Luigi will be attacked. Pwallops also have a new attack where they slam the ground with their clubs, creating a shockwave that both Mario and Luigi must jump over. Like Protobatters, Pwallops grow in size when they take damage, increasing the strength of their attacks. They can only grow twice.
They are found in the [[Energy Hold]]. They can vary in size just like their weaker cousins and have the ability to produce shock waves with their club. They can also spit out yellow balls that they use to whack at either Mario or Luigi. However, Pwallops can sometimes miss the balls when they swing their club. When [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] attacks a Pwallop, it grows either one or two times its size.

The three size variations of Pwallop

Pwallops are cyan variations of the Protobatter that Mario and Luigi encounter inside Bowser's body in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey. They are found in the Energy Hold.

In battle, Pwallops can spit out a yellow (cyan in the remake) ball that they use their clubs to send to a bro. If they have their eyes closed when they swing, they will miss and then immediately strike again. This attack is faster than the Protobatter's version and the attack must be countered with the hammer. If the Pwallop does a backhand swing, Mario is the target, but if they do an openhanded swing Luigi will be attacked. Pwallops also have a new attack where they slam the ground with their clubs, creating a shockwave that both Mario and Luigi must jump over. Like Protobatters, Pwallops grow in size when they take damage, increasing the strength of their attacks. They can only grow twice.
