The '''blorbs''' | The '''blorbs''' is a mysterious disease that appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]''. In the game, the disease spreads all over the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] and infects the [[Toad (species)|Toads]], causing them to grow large and round and rendering them mostly immobile, though they apparently can roll uncontrollably. It is caused by [[List of implied items#Blorb Mushroom|Blorb Mushroom]]s that [[Fawful]] sold to several Toads, similar to how he sells the [[Vacuum Shroom]] to [[Bowser]]. The entire case of the blorbs is wiped out by the [[Miracle Cure]], which is created after [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] find and merge all three [[Star Cure]]s. | ||
Before the Miracle Cure eliminates the disease, blorbed Toads block several areas in [[Toad Town]]. Once the disease is cured, these areas are opened to the player. A large percent of the infected Toads, including the one seen in the cutscene at the beginning of the game, are kept in one of the rooms of the [[Toadley Clinic]]. After they are cured, one of the Toads still appears to have the blorbs, though speaking with him reveals that this is how he normally looks. This was likely done due to the "blorbed" Toad being one of the hiding places used by the [[Hide-and-seek Toad|Toad child]] during the hide-and-seek sidequest. | Before the Miracle Cure eliminates the disease, blorbed Toads block several areas in [[Toad Town]].

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', some [[Goomba]]s are also infected with the blorbs. It was also implied in the original game that Bowser's part of the kingdom may have been affected to some degree, as Bowser claimed that he "had every right" to participate in the meeting instead of being excluded from it. Thus, his intrusion was originally for the good of his followers instead of his single-minded desire for [[Princess Peach|Peach]]. A cure is presented by the [[Best Fitness Friends]] via a chemical compound known as [[Skeletone Formula:D]]. [[Bowser Jr.]] sets off to find the ingredients for this compound after the last one has been used in a demonstration to cure a "blorbed" Goomba. Toward the end of the game, Bowser Jr. acquires enough Skeletone Formula:D to rescue his minions, as well as Bowser. Bowser, however, despite the warning from Bowser Jr. not to consume too much of the formula, does so anyway and [[Dry Bowser|loses most of his body mass]]. | In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', some [[Goomba]]s are also infected with the blorbs.
