Thesewer rat,[1][2] also referred to as arat[1][3] ormouse,[4] is theboss of theMacro Zone inSuper Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins, where it is fought at the end of theAttic Course. It is a rat with a rather prominent nose that it apparently uses for defense. Its fight is similar to the battle withMorton Koopa Jr. andRoy Koopa inSuper Mario World. The sewer rat runs up walls and into pipes, and it eventually crawls to the top of the ceiling and falls straight ontoMario. If hejumps on top of the sewer rat three times or hits it with sixfireballs, it is defeated. The rat then falls off the screen, and Mario gets one of his sixGolden Coins.
The sewer rat also appears in the firstMario vs. Wario comic. On Mario's way to visitWario, the sewer rat is the first enemy Mario encounters. Mario mistakenly assumes that the sewer rat just wants to have a party, and he pulls its needle-point nose off to use as a party-popper, causing the rat to faint.
