It moves slowly and gracefully through the [[water (environment)|water]], often seen performing lazy loops between the foreground and background. It will however often attempt to jump out of the water at [[Kirby]], where it will then flop about helplessly on land, just like a Blipper would. Mamatee has a fairly high amount of [[health]], and as such takes a few hits to take out. Essentially, it serves the same role in the water as [[Grandy]] does on land.

==Appearance==
Mamanti resembles a large [[Blipper]], but with the fins of a manta ray. It moves slowly and gracefully through the water, often seen performing lazy loops between the foreground and background. It will however often attempt to jump out of the water at Kirby, where it will then flop about helplessly on land, just like a Blipper would. Mamanti has fairly high HP, and as such takes a few hits to take out. Essentially, it serves the same role in the water as [[Grandy]] does on land.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
