'''Lakitus''' are [[Koopa (species)|Koopas]] which 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. | '''Lakitus''' are [[Koopa (species)|Koopas]] which ride [[Lakitu's Cloud|clouds]] through the skies, mostly dropping [[Spiny Egg]]s on the ground or near the player.

Lakitus make their debut in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', whose manual describes as "the mysterious turtle who controls the clouds". Lakitus first appear in [[World 4-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 4-1]] in this game, where they simply move back and forth at the top of the screen, ducking into their [[Lakitu's Cloud|clouds]] to drop [[Spiny Egg]]s (which hatch into adult [[Spiny|Spinies]] upon collision with the ground). Only one Lakitu is present on screen at any given time, and they can be defeated by either a stomp for 800 points or a [[fireball]] for 200 points. After being defeated, it eventually respawns if the player remains idle too long. If the player is about to reach the flagpole, then Lakitu stops chasing them, and simply disappears offscreen. A Lakitu also disguises itself as Bowser in [[World 5-4 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 5-4]], but the player cannot reveal it unless they hit the [[fake Bowser]] with fireballs. | Lakitus make their debut in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', whose manual describes as "the mysterious turtle who controls the clouds".

They are first encountered in [[World 4 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 4-1]]. They retain the same appearance and throw Spiny's eggs in the same way they did in the predecessor, however, they are slightly darker. However, in some of the later levels, Lakitu appears lower in the sky, making it easier for Mario or Luigi to defeat him. They also sometimes appear underwater, as seen in World 9. In underwater levels, the outline of Lakitu's cloud is colored gray like with all green enemies encountered there, including the "green" Cheep Cheeps, but this is reverted in the ''Super Mario All-Stars'' version, where all green enemies are colored normally regardless of what level environment they appear in. | ||

Depending on the level, they may throw one of two types: a red egg that hatches into a Spiny on impact, or a green egg that does not hatch, but continues rolling on the ground to harm [[Mario]]. Lakitus first appear in [[Water Land]]. There is a single-use item, [[Lakitu's Cloud]], which allows Mario or Luigi to skip one [[level]]. | ||
In ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', a Lakitu also helps in [[e-Reader]] use and conversion. Whenever the player wants to scan an [[e-Reader]] card, he appears to whisk Mario away from wherever on the map he is on. This Lakitu has a slightly different appearance from the enemy Lakitus found in levels. He does not appear in the European version due to all e-Reader content being removed, as well as in the Virtual Console and Nintendo Switch Online releases due to all e-Reader levels being unlocked by default. | In ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', a Lakitu also helps in [[e-Reader]] use and conversion.

In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and [[Super Mario 64 DS|its remake]], the first two Lakitus seen in this game are the friendly [[Lakitu Bros.]], one of whom fills the role of the game's camera; they help Mario toward the beginning of the game, give him hints in [[Whomp's Fortress]], and film his entire adventure. Using {{button|n64|c}}, the player can control Lakitu's position and thereby change the camera angle. The cameraman Lakitu can be seen in the introduction and the end credits, and can also be seen via reflections, such as in the room containing the entrance to [[Snowman's Land]]. | In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and [[Super Mario 64 DS|its remake]], the first two Lakitus seen in this game are the friendly [[Lakitu Bros.]], one of whom fills the role of the game's camera; they help Mario toward the beginning of the game, give him hints in [[Whomp's Fortress]], and film his entire adventure.

Defeating these Lakitus rewards Mario with five [[coin]]s. If they are spawned but do not see Mario, they float around in wide, fast circles. In the former area, it is possible to make Lakitu fly low enough that its cloud is under the water, though this does not affect its behavior. In the DS remake, the [[Goomboss Battle]] stage has one Lakitu enemy, and the new level, [[Sunshine Isles]], has two Lakitus in it. They no longer move in their wide, fast patterns, instead following the player at a more steady pace, while slowly moving in a small circle if they do not see them. If [[Yoshi]] eats one and spits it out, it spins out while constantly moving in the direction it is spit, though unlike many enemies, it recovers. Yoshi is also capable of turning Lakitus into [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]]s. | ||
In the original game, Lakitu's Cloud is a simple 2D texture and lacks a face, while the remake gives the cloud the appearance it usually has. | In the original game, Lakitu's Cloud is a simple 2D texture and lacks a face, while the remake gives the cloud the appearance it usually has. | ||

In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', Lakitus behave the same as they do in the first games, and the ''Super Mario World'' ability to take control of Lakitu's Cloud returns, which is mandatory to obtain some [[Star Coin]]s. They can be defeated for 1000 points with any attack, but like in ''Super Mario World'', their cloud cannot be ridden if the player defeats them with a jump as the cloud simply disappears.

This time, they throw Spiny Eggs more frequently; Mario, Luigi, Blue Toad, or Yellow Toad can steal their clouds by defeating them in any manner (as opposed to only a fireball previously). Additionally, [[square cloud]]s spawn Lakitus that throw coins instead of Spiny Eggs. Lakitus appear in [[World 2-5 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 2-5]], [[World 4-5 (New Super Mario Bros.

In the ''[[Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!]]'', Lakitus resemble their in-game counterparts, but their clouds have no faces (a pair of Lakitus whose clouds did have faces appeared in the film's opening credits, however). In the movie itself, many Lakitus make their debut toward the beginning of the anime during the [[Koopa Troop]] invasion of the [[Mario Bros.' House|Mario Bros.' home]]. After this, no Lakitus are given major roles until shortly after Mario and Luigi had collected the [[Super Mushroom]]. The Mario Bros. are eventually attacked by a Lakitu, who traps Luigi amongst a horde of [[Big Spiny|big-sized Spinies]], although Mario manages to escape his eggs. A [[beanstalk]] appears and boosts Mario to Lakitu's height. The amused Lakitu then scoffs at Mario and shakes his hand before realizing that it is adjacent to his enemy.
