'''Lakitus''' are [[Koopa (species)|Koopas]] who ride [[Lakitu's Cloud|clouds]] through the skies, mostly dropping [[Spiny Egg]]s on the ground or near the player. When they are defeated, their clouds can sometimes be ridden for a short amount of time. In other games, however, they take on friendly roles, such as [[Lakitu (Mario Kart referee)|refereeing]] [[Mario Kart (series)|races]], [[Mario Tennis (series)|tennis]] and [[Mario Baseball (series)|baseball]] games, and even [[Lakitu Bros.|filming Mario's adventures]]. Many of the sports game manuals refer to Lakitu in the singular, indicating that there may only be a specific individual Lakitu involved (who is named for his species, as [[Toad]] or [[Yoshi]]), and ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' introduces a unique, playable Lakitu character.
