Boris	The first meanyion encountered in the game. Boris is a stationary Flying Meanyion (More about those later) who replaces Dr. Quack as Capital B's second in command in The Impossible Lair. He can't move, and is only vulnerable against Spiky Doors. Like the one he starts out on the business end of...
Meanyion	The normal meanyion. Moves in one direction.
Spring Meanyion	A meanyion that jumps when the player jumps or rolls
Boundalong Meanyion	A frog-like meanyion that jumps occasionally. It can only be defeated by jumping on it, as running into it will bounce Yooka backwards. The only way it can damage Yooka is by landing on him.
Bounderang Meanyion	A frog-like meanyion that is identical to the Boundalong, with the exception of being orange, and that he leaps to the side instead of just up and down.
Flying Meanyion	A meanyion that flies, usually back and forth or in curved or even circular paths.
Mad Meanyion	A meanyion that charges at the player. Yooka will take damage if he charges it from the front.
Copter Meanyion	A meanyion that flies. it is coated in spikes, making it impossible to defeat by normal means.
Spike dropping copter Meanyion	A variant of the Copter Meanyion that drops a spike downward when the player approaches from underneath. After dropping a spike, it waits a second before reloading.

Toadpole	Rare enemy found in water under the stage. Jumps up as the player approaches it
Ineptipus	An underwater enemy. some will pull the player towards it, some simply swim about in synchronized patterns. They are invincible (Unless the player bought the Torpedo Play-Tonic).

Spiked Shell: Upon spotting Yooka, it will go into its shell and roll after them at high speed. The shell will even change direction to continue the chase, making this enemy incredibly annoying.
