In Mario Party Advance, we meet a certain young tomboyish Ukiki named Akiki- and you know she’s a tomboy, because she’s a Womoid who doesn’t even wear a bow! So scandalous! Unfortunately, her uncle Ukiki has left her a note saying he’s being kidnapped, with the only clue being a message that reads “bIg teAM cAT THElf bLAKE.” And she needs YOUR help to find him!

Speaking of funny Ukiki artwork, I really like this one, from Mario Party 6′s Snow Brawl! It is so dramatic! Mario throwing a snowball with such force and rage, the Ukiki covered in snow cowering behind him… this one picture represents the horrors of war better than any war movie I’ve ever seen! They don’t care if it’s their child or not- they’re rich! There are also golden Ukikis who you can hand over to any adult, and I just like the implication of that. No, I’m only kidding! This is from a minigame Chimp Chase, where you need to reunite baby Ukikis with their parents of the same colour! Wait, there are different coloured Ukikis? And the adult ones are huge! Does this mean every Ukiki we’ve met so far is a juvenile, and the average Ukiki grows to an enormous size? Probably not, because this is a random minigame from Mario Party 5! In the next few years, Ukiki receives the same fate of most B-list Mario enemies during the Gamecube years: being kept singlehandedly on life-support by half a dozen Mario Party games! This is a funny artwork of Peach and her new child that she gave birth to! Welcome to the world, little monkey! So rude! Mario needs that! It’s his life energy!
Oh, and in this game it tries to steal your hat. This is the first time they’re called Ukikis… or Ukkikis, as I guess they spell it in this game! And yeah, I prefer this name: “uki”, “ki ki”, or even “uki ki” are the Japanese sounds for a monkey, a bit like how they’d say “ook ook” or “oo oo” around here! It might even be the sound for a cool, special type of sunglasses monkey that makes you hit an offbeat!

Ukikis aren’t even normally allied to Yoshi! Is this one Yoshi’s friend, or is it just a neutral entity, as most monkeys are?Īnd then, bizarrely, they next appeared in… Super Mario 64! How funny is that? A Yoshi series original enemy, making its way to the big M (Mario series)! Although they look a little bit different here, with a smaller mouth and a rounder head… since this is such a generic monkey design, one has to wonder if they were even meant to be the same enemy… But hey, why not right? It’s more fun this way! In Tetris Attack, they are a team with Poochy, and wow, what a wonderful team this is! Unfortunately they have been brainwashed by Kamek and Bowser, which is just kind of funny to me! Bowser sure has his priorities straight by choosing to brainwash an immortal dog and also a random monkey who happened to be alongside it. Why? I have no idea! What do monkeys have to do with grinding? Do they grind their teeth? Do they love to frequent gay dating apps? What does it mean! Oh, and they’re called Grinders in this game. We first meet these little scamps in Yoshi’s Island, and true to the Cheek of a Monkey, they are some of the trickier enemies in the game, as in they have a lot of tricks up their sleeves! Some of them will just run and jump around, others will climb vines, some will even drop bombs and Needlenoses, as you can see in the art at the top! The Player’s Guide named these variants Short Fuses and Seedy Sallies respectively, and I don’t think they really needed unique names but I respect it! Quite a few of them are totally harmless, so they might not even be enemies: just rascals! Weird Mario rascals! Whether they’re rolling in balls or hanging out in a clock, this is the world’s most beloved image of a little primate! They don’t seem to be any particular kind of monkey, rather taking common monkey traits from all sorts of species, I guess!
We’re doing another anonymous request today, and I’d like to thank you all again for sending them, because they really have gotten me motivated to write about things I otherwise wouldn’t! There are still some requests I’ve yet to get to, but sit tight cause I promise I’ll deliver someday! I just gotta be in the right headspace!Īnyway, Ukiki! I don’t need to tell you this is a monkey, because oh, it is such a monkey! It’s a very particular kind of Generic Cartoon Monkey, a little brown creature with big ears and a long curly tail, like you see pop up here and there.
It is time for monkey business! Have you had your state-recommended dose of monkey business for the day? If you haven’t, don’t fret, because today’s post is about Ukiki! Debut: Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island
