In ''Super Mario 64'', Skeeters appear frequently in [[Wet-Dry World]], where one is seen on the entrance [[painting]]. They are found floating aimlessly on the water, and they appear as big cyan-colored pond skaters with yellow suction cup-like webbed feet and vermillion-colored antennae on their backs, with bulgy eyes. They can be defeated by most methods of attack, and they release three [[coin]]s upon defeat. They can be lowered onto platforms, where they will slowly skitter about and home in on [[Mario]] if they see him, acting just like a [[Scuttlebug|Scuttle Bug]]. If hit, Mario will lose two [[Health Meter|health]] wedges.

In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', Skeeters are now blue, and their yellow webbed feet are slightly larger and also cover their ankles; the antennae on their heads are red instead of vermillion, and they have black eyes that are now positioned flat on their faces, instead of bulging out. Skeeters now also appear in [[Dire, Dire Docks]], where five of them can be found. Their other attributes remain unchanged from the original.

Skeeters return in ''[[Mario Kart World]]'', where they use their ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' design but with a starburst pattern on the back. As in the mainline games, Skeeters occur on the surface of water and propel themselves forward by flexing their legs. They cause racers to briefly get knocked over on contact. ''Mario Kart World'' is the first new game to include Skeeters in fifteen years, since the release of ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''. They appear in aquatic areas such as the lake in [[Acorn Heights]].

Skeeters[1] are giant water strider enemies that are introduced in Super Mario 64. They appear in a few of the 3D games of the Super Mario franchise. Like real water striders, they usually skim on the surface of water. Their name comes from "water skeeter," one of many alternate names for water striders.

Skeeters have had distinct designs throughout all four of their Super Mario-series appearances, though their abilities have remained largely the same. In addition to skating on water, they can also walk on land, though they move a bit slower.

History

Super Mario series

Super Mario 64 / Super Mario 64 DS

A Skeeter in Super Mario 64, its first appearance

In Super Mario 64, Skeeters appear frequently in Wet-Dry World, where one is seen on the entrance painting. They are found floating aimlessly on the water, and they appear as big cyan-colored pond skaters with yellow suction cup-like webbed feet and vermillion-colored antennae on their backs, with bulgy eyes. They can be defeated by most methods of attack, and they release three coins upon defeat. They can be lowered onto platforms, where they will slowly skitter about and home in on Mario if they see him, acting just like a Scuttle Bug. If hit, Mario will lose two health wedges.

In Super Mario 64 DS, Skeeters are now blue, and their yellow webbed feet are slightly larger and also cover their ankles; the antennae on their heads are red instead of vermillion, and they have black eyes that are now positioned flat on their faces, instead of bulging out. Skeeters now also appear in Dire, Dire Docks, where five of them can be found. Their other attributes remain unchanged from the original.

Super Mario Sunshine

Skeeters reappear in Super Mario Sunshine, where they are referred to as Pondskaters[2] or Blue Spiders.[3][4] They are found exclusively in the lake of Bianco Hills. When they are jumped on, Mario propels upward to a height rivaling the Rocket Nozzle. Pondskaters stop moving temporarily if sprayed with FLUDD. Pondskaters can be defeated only by a Yoshi, by either eating them or spraying juice at them to turn them into platforms, which will remove the Pondskaters after the platform disappears.

Super Mario Galaxy 2

Skeeters in Super Mario Galaxy 2 were given an overhauled appearance consisting of flat purple bodies without antennae. They are enemies first encountered in the Cosmic Cove Galaxy. They always home in on Mario or Luigi, and they can be stomped for a coin or hit with a spin to release three Star Bits. They also appear in Starshine Beach Galaxy and Throwback Galaxy.

Appearances

Mario Party 3

In Mario Party 3, an immobile Skeeter is in the background of Woody Woods, and a large mechanical Skeeter is one of the vehicles in Ridiculous Relay.

Mario Kart World

Skeeters return in Mario Kart World, where they use their Super Mario Galaxy 2 design but with a starburst pattern on the back. As in the mainline games, Skeeters occur on the surface of water and propel themselves forward by flexing their legs. They cause racers to briefly get knocked over on contact. Mario Kart World is the first new game to include Skeeters in fifteen years, since the release of Super Mario Galaxy 2. They appear in aquatic areas such as the lake in Acorn Heights.
