Moogle

Moogles (Japanese: モーグリ, Mōguri) are creatures in the Final Fantasy series. They usually have white fur, and an antenna protruding from the head with a small red or yellow pompom at the end. They have small red or purple wings, and their ears are shaped like those of a cat or rabbit. The Japanese name for Moogle is a portmanteau the words "mole" and "bat", and they have the characteristics of both animals. Since their debut in Final Fantasy III, Moogles have appeared in several Final Fantasy games and have become one of the series' mascots. Moogles often help the characters on their journey, usually in battle or to provide advice. Moogles often end their sentences with "kupo".

Mario franchise
In Mario Hoops 3-on-3, a Moogle appears as one of five playable characters from the Final Fantasy series, the others being Ninja, Black Mage, White Mage, and Cactuar. Moogle is unlocked by earning a silver trophy in the Star Tourney on the Normal difficulty.

Moogle, along with the other Final Fantasy characters returned in the game Mario Sports Mix, where it is classified as a Tricky character (like in Mario Hoops 3-on-3). It is unlocked by beating the Mushroom Cup Tournament of any sport. Moogle's power in this game is very weak, and its speed is below average, but it makes up for those weaknesses with a high technique stat. However, unlike most characters with high technique attributes, Moogle's full power throws do not have a curve added to them.
