Flutters (also called Wiggler Flies) are Wigglers with wings that first appeared in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. When hit, they turn red and angry like normal Wigglers. Instead of flying around aimlessly, though, they charge straight for the Yoshi that hit them.

History

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

In this game, the Wiggler Flies are only in one level, "GO! GO! MARIO!!". Just before the goal, a swarm of them appear over a flat turf. Avoid them by simply running under them; their attack antics are described above.

In the remake, Super Mario Advance 3: Yoshi's Island, they appear again, in the secret level "Endless World of Yoshis".

Tetris Attack

Wiggler Fly, under the name "Flying Wiggler" (or technically "flying Wiggler", as the font used in Tetris Attack lacks a capital "F"), next appeared in Tetris Attack, which strangely depicted him as a friend of Yoshi rather than an enemy. Flying Wiggler was playable in Time Trial mode, and could be fought and rescued on the Flower Stage in the main Vs. Com mode. In the SNES version, Flying Wiggler was paired with the similarly-themed Eggo-Dil.

Mario Party series

In the Mario Party series, Wiggler Flies are called "Flutters". They are used as capsules in Mario Party 5 and Mario Party 6 to steal coins from a player. They also appear in some mini-games. An individual Flutter named Flutter also appears Mario Party Advance. Two of the game's quests directly involve it. It also appeared in Mario Party 7 as the Flutter Orb, which could take players to the Star. She also appeared in the minigame Spider Stomp, where she was at the end of the level and had to be rescued.

Mario Power Tennis

In Mario Power Tennis, Wiggler transforms into a Wiggler Fly for a defense shot. Also, Wiggler by default has an upwards-curved body and two hands to hold the tennis racket, making him resemble Flutter moreso.
