'''Whiplashes''' are a recurring enemy in the [[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|''Banjo-Kazooie'' series]].


More an obstacle than an enemy, '''Whiplashes''' are found exclusively inside [[Clanker|Clanker's]] belly in [[Clanker's Cavern]]. These brownish tentacles will sway nonchalantly until [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] swim by, reacting to their presence by thrashing about madly. Whiplashes are immune to to [[Blue Eggs]], and since they are always found either underwater or otherwise out of reach while on foot, they cannot be taken on by the [[Wonderwing]] like [[Whipcrack]]s.
==Characteristics==
Whiplashes are fleshy, tentacle-like enemies that are mostly pink, although some are green, depending on the area.
 
===''Banjo-Kazooie''===
[[File:Whiplashes BK screenshot.png|thumb|left|200px|Banjo and Kazooie encounter some Whiplashes in Clanker's body]]
In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', their first appearance, Whiplashes are pink tendrils with red bases found inside of [[Clanker]]'s body during [[Clanker's Cavern]]. They sway back and forth gently until [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] approach, causing them to thrash about violently. If Banjo gets hit, he loses a [[honeycomb]] of his health. Whiplashes cannot be defeated and must be avoided. It is not known if they are a natural part of Clanker's digestive system, or some kind of foreign parasite.
 
In [[Mad Monster Mansion]] and [[Click Clock Wood]], Whiplashes have a more common variant, [[Whipcrack]]s, which have the appearance of a vine. Although they are a different species, Whipcracks have the same behavior as Whiplashes, and they appear in more areas. Unlike their counterpart, Whiplashes cannot be defeated by any means; [[Blue Egg]]s and [[Beak Bomb]] will pass right through them, and they are always either underwater or too high up, so they cannot be reached with [[Wonderwing]].

===''Grunty's Revenge''===
In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]'', Whiplashes are the most common enemy, and they appear in every world, both on land and underwater. Whiplashes are a basic enemy and can be defeated instantly from any attack. They sway slowly, even if Banjo approaches one. Sometimes, a Whiplash is hiding under a pile of sticks, and Banjo can reveal it by using [[Pack Whack]] on the sticks.
 
Just before the first battle against [[Klungo]], he is shown to be creating Whiplashes and Gruntweeds for [[Gruntilda]]. According to the [[Jinjo Oracle]], Gruntweeds are a hybrid of a Whiplash and a [[Gruntling]]. Whiplashes have a stronger and larger variant, [[Stinglash]]es, which are found in later areas.
 
Green Whiplashes appear in the oily waters of [[Spiller's Harbor]] and in the icy sea of the [[Freezing Furnace]]. Aside from color, there is no difference between them and the common pink Whiplashes.
 
===''Banjo-Pilot''===
In ''[[Banjo-Pilot]]'', a green Whiplash makes a cameo appearance during the Grand Prix awards ceremony.
