The following statistics | ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'' features a smaller number of enemy species compared to previous games in the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' series. Many species that appear have either appeared earlier in the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' series or in previous ''Paper Mario'' installments; additionally, ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'' does not have any new enemies that are not based on other enemies, unlike the first three games in the ''Paper Mario'' series. Instead, ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'' features a number of new enemy variants that are based on other enemies. For example, this game marks the debut of [[Juggler Bro]]s, [[Shady Sledge Bro]]s, and [[Shunned Guy]]s, which are variants of [[Hammer Bro]]s, [[Sledge Bro]]s, and [[Shy Guy]]s, respectfully. Shy Guys receive the most new variants in ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'', as they are the most prominent enemy type seen. ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'' features a total of 53 variants of Shy Guys, the most of any game, although a number of them only vary by color or an item. Additionally, this game introduces [[Dino Rhino]]s as enemies, which have not previously appeared in the ''Paper Mario'' series (although a variant of Dino Rhinos, known as [[Albino Dino]]s, appear in ''[[Paper Mario]]''). | ||
All enemies in ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'' have been redesigned from their previous appearances in the ''Paper Mario'' series. Every enemy has a white outline surrounding them, and the shading seen in all prior installments has been removed in favor of flat coloring. Some enemies have also had their designs changed to better match their most recent appearances, although this varies between each enemy. As ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'''s gameplay is heavily based on colors, the color an enemy has plays a role in where they appear, and on what color of paint they drop when defeated. This is best seen in [[Ruddy Road]], where a group of red Shy Guys turn blue out of fear, and leave behind large quantities of blue paint when crushed by an angry Toad. The high color variance of Shy Guys may be the reason they are the most prominent enemy seen. | |||
The following is a table of battle statistics for each enemy as obtained directly from the game's data. In gameplay, an enemy's HP is only represented by the amount of color left on their body, and reaches 0 when there is no color left; the actual number never appears as in-game text. For the attacks, "Normal" refers to the enemy's base attack unless otherwise stated, while "Blowback" refers to the damage the enemy inflicts upon other enemies when using the [[KO Hammer]]. | |||
