'''Malboros''' are monstrous plants whose body is covered in tentacle-like vines. They are recurring enemies in the ''[[Final Fantasy (franchise)|Final Fantasy]]'' games, and they first appear in ''[[Final Fantasy II]]''. Most Malboros are green, and their signature move is [[Bad Breath]], in which they release toxic breath that can inflict various [[status effect]]s on their target. Due to their bad breath, they might be named after the {{wp|Marlboro (cigarette)|Marlboro}} brand of cigarettes.

====''Final Fantasy VI''====

In ''[[Final Fantasy VI]]'', Malboros are only encountered in [[Darill's Tomb]] in the [[World of Ruin]]. Their special attack is [[Drool]], which inflicts [[Sap]] on their target. If [[Relm]] uses [[Sketch]] on a Malboro, she either uses Bad Breath (75% chance) or Drool (25% chance). In the original [[Super Nintendo]] and [[PlayStation]] versions, Malboros are instead named '''Mad Oscar'''.

===''Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles'' series===
====''Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles''====
In ''[[Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles]]'', a Malboro is fought as the boss at the end of [[Mushroom Forest]]. It retains its signature Bad Breath attack, but also attacks using [[Slowga]] and, starting with the second cycle, [[Blizzaga]].

===''Mario Hoops 3-on-3''===
In ''[[Mario Hoops 3-on-3]]'' Malboros are featured as the main and titular obstacle of [[mariowiki:Malboro Garden|Malboro Garden]]. There is one positioned behind both baskets. Malboros in this game have a unique appearance from most other titles, with five huge orange eyes and a long mouth. If a character gets too close to a Malboro, it uses Bad Breath, which releases purple gas that knocks and slows any character to come in contact with it.

===''Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo Tales''===
In ''[[Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo Tales]]'', Malboros are featured in the microgame, [[Malboro Masher]]. They retain their appearance from ''Mario Hoops 3-on-3''.
