''' | The '''Wollyhop''' ({{j|マロガエル|Maro Gaeru|''Maro'' Frog}}); known as the '''Wollywog''' in [[#Naming|some games]]) is a frog-like creature found in subterranean areas in {{p1}}, {{p2}}, and {{p4}}. As an adaptation to environments with little or no sunlight, they have lost most of their skin pigmentation, giving them an albino-like appearance. | ||

|common = Wollyhop. | |common = Wollyhop or Wollywog, depending on game and version. The enemy is called the Wollywog in both American English and British English versions of {{p1}} and {{p2}}, but in {{npcp1}}, {{npcp2}}, {{p3}}, {{hp}}, and {{p3d}}, the enemy is called the Wollywog in the American English version and the Wollyhop in the British English version. In {{p1s}}, {{p2s}}, and {{p4}}, the enemy is called the Wollyhop in both English versions. The reason for the name change is that the term "{{w|wog}}" is a slur in British English. Either way, the name comes from pollywog, another word for tadpole. | ||
