Ishnail is the head of the Robbo Gang and the rival of Don Pianta in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. He is a snail-like biped with apparent money problems. Ishanail's base of operations can be found on the East side of Rogueport.

On his quest for a Blimp Ticket, Mario needed Ishnail's help on how to visit Don Pianta. For 64 coins, Ishnail informed him that he needed to buy a Dried Shroom, followed by a Dizzy Dial, in Peeka's shop, a secret sign known only to friends of Don Pianta.

Trivia

  • His name is a play on the main character of Moby Dick, Ishmael. Removing "Ih" gives "snail", which Ishnail has a resemblance to.
  • His species is unknown, but his head seems to resemble that of a Koopa. He is the only one of his kind seen in any Mario game.
