'''Mechawiggler''' is a massive insectoid robot from ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' and the boss of the [[Metro Kingdom]], as well as one of the six bosses refought at the [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Mario Odyssey)|Mushroom Kingdom]]. Despite being ostensibly based on a [[Wiggler]], it bears little resemblance to them, though it has a similar "enraged" state and several segments making up its body. It has five glowing orange eyes, a cyan and pink {{wp|plasma globe}} embedded into each segment including the head, yellow electricity-producing rods surrounding said globes, and a mouth that resembles an electric plug.  
'''Mechawiggler''' is a massive insectoid robot from ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' and the boss of the [[Metro Kingdom]], as well as one of the six bosses refought at the [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Mario Odyssey)|Mushroom Kingdom]]. Despite being ostensibly based on a [[Wiggler]], it bears little resemblance to them, though it has a similar "enraged" state and several segments making up its body. It has five glowing orange eyes, a cyan and fuchsia {{wp|plasma globe}} embedded into each segment including the head, yellow electricity-producing rods surrounding said globes, and a mouth that resembles an electric plug.  


Mechawiggler is initially found covered in electricity on the lightning rod of [[New Donk City Hall]], where it uses its plug to absorb the city's electrical power. Once [[Mario]] reaches the top, it briefly crawls around the rod a few times before stopping and shrieking, followed by it charging Mario off the side of the building. Mechawiggler then proceeds to pursue the falling Mario down the side of the building. Mario lands upright on the ground and the battle begins.

Once defeated, Mechawiggler, covered in electricity, shrieks one more time, then explodes from tail to head, releasing a [[Multi Moon]]. After its defeat, one of its pieces crashes in [[Mayor Pauline Commemorative Park]] and can be [[Ground Pound]]ed to collect a [[Power Moon]].

In the rematch in [[Peach's Castle]], Mechawiggler has more segments and an extra head. This allows it to split in two during its charging attack, with which it starts the battle. Another change during the rematch is that Mechawiggler launches pink electric spheres that split into multiple bursts. The battle is otherwise the same. When Mechawiggler is defeated again, it will explode, releasing a Multi Moon.
In the rematch in [[Peach's Castle]], Mario fights two Mechawigglers that each have more segments. The battle is similar, except that both will use their charging attack simultaneously before linking their bodies during the wall-climbing phase; both Mechawigglers also launch pink electric spheres that split into multiple bursts. When Mechawiggler is defeated again, it will explode, releasing a Multi Moon.
