::Let's reframe this, then: what about Polterguy doesn't make it the ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' "toy" counterpart of Boo Guy? And are we 100% certain that Greaper wasn't another victim of undercoordination?

@DrBaskerville: How is this remotely like Goomba and Paragoomba? Those are variants that have co-existed in the same games and have clear, consistent visual and functional differences, plus different names in all languages. Meanwhile, Polterguy's English name was the only thing that stopped it from being merged already by [[MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive/65#Decide how to handle the toy enemies from across the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series|this proposal]]. {{User:Hewer/sig}} 04:58, July 6, 2024 (EDT) | |||
