In ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', Rocky Wrenches appear as obstacles on the airship portion of [[DS Airship Fortress|Airship Fortress]]. Popping out of their holes at random, Rocky Wrenches can cause one of the racers to spin out of control if they runs into them. However, unlike in most appearances, Rocky Wrenches do not throw wrenches (with this applying in their later appearances in the ''Mario Kart'' series). Rocky Wrenches also appear in [[Mission 6-2]], which involves [[Wario]] needing to defeat fifteen Rocky Wrenches by using a [[Super Star|Star]].

Compared to ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', Rocky Wrenches more closely resemble Monty Moles, having seemingly been redesigned to look like Monty Mole's  appearance in this game (especially in the mini map), though Rocky Wrenches would look more like Monty Mole in future games starting with ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''. Rocky Wrenches have brown upper lips, four pointed fangs, and large goggles in front of glowing pupils that seem to be based off of their ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' sprites. Due to the graphics for Rocky Wrenches being flat textures that always face the camera, it is impossible to tell whether Rocky Wrenches are intended to have their shells in this game.

Starting with the [[Pirate Tour]] in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', Rocky Wrenches reappear in {{classic|DS|Airship Fortress}}, where they retain their tactics from ''Mario Kart DS'' and ''Mario Kart 7'', though they appear with their updated design like in ''Mario Kart 7''. However, unlike in previous ''Mario Kart'' games, driving into a Rocky Wrench knocks the Rocky Wrench back into its hole and grants the player bonus points instead of causing the player to spin out. If the player drives over a Rocky Wrench while they are peeking out, the player can perform a Jump Boost. Rocky Wrenches also make an appearance in the marketplace section of [[Bangkok Rush|Bangkok Rush T]], and as an added addition to [[DS Twilight House]]. In addition to appearing as obstacles, Rocky Wrenches are the basis of a [[Mii Racing Suit]] added in the [[Peach vs. Bowser Tour (November–December 2022)|second Peach vs. Bowser Tour]].
