The Vermin (ダルマねずみ Dharma Rat) and Mad Vermin (フアッティラット Fatae Rat) are species of monsters found in Golden Sun and Golden Sun: The Lost Age. These monsters, resembling spherical, colorful mice with forks (it can be said that it bears a strong resemblance to Pokémon's Marill), are palette-swapped variants of each other that have differing levels of power and defense and are fought in different locations in the games. In Golden Sun there are two versions of the Vermin enemy, one seen in prologue sequences and one seen afterwards in the overworld.
