Thornys[1] are enemies in Mario Clash. These spiked turtles walk left and right on the stage, similarly to Shellcreepers. A Thorny can be stunned if hit from the sides with a Turtle Shell, and then defeated from Mario either hitting it with a Turtle Shell again or kicking it. If a Thorny is hit in the face by a Turtle Shell, it changes direction. In their artwork, Thornys resemble dark green-skinned Spinies with a single row of three retractable spikes on their black shells, but they are depicted similarly to Spikes in the game itself.
ProfilesEdit
- Instruction booklet bio: Thorny is protected by his three horns. He cannot be knocked down with one hit.[1]
