'''Bone Goombas''' are [[Goomba]]s that wear skull helmets and first appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. Appearing alongside other bone-related enemies like [[Bone Piranha Plant]]s and [[Dry Bones]] in [[Tower]]s and [[Castle]]s, they seem to be identical to ordinary Goombas in everything but appearance, slowly walking forward and being able to be defeated with any attack.

==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''New Super Mario Bros. 2''====
[[File:NewBoneGoomba.png|frame|left]]
[[File:Boneybe.png|frame|left]]
Bone Goombas first appear in {{world-link|1|towern2|World 1-Tower (New Super Mario Bros. 2)}}. 

When defeated, the skulls on their heads are broken, revealing that they are just normal Goombas with a teal coloration, similar to the Goombas found underground in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' Additionally, these teal Goombas appear without skulls in {{world-link|6|ghosthousen2|World 6-Ghost House (New Super Mario Bros. 2)}}, {{world-link|flower|ghosthousen2|World Flower-Ghost House}}, and in the [[Gold Classics Pack]].

====''Super Mario Bros. Wonder''====

Bone Goombas reappear as enemies in the palace levels in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'', having open mouths like in the ''Paper Mario'' series.<ref>Nintendo of America (August 31, 2023). [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0m_uNaSres&ab_channel=NintendoofAmerica Super Mario Bros. Wonder Direct 8.31.2023]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved September 3, 2023.</ref> Unlike ''New Super Mario Bros. 2'', unless in Elephant form, it now takes two hits to defeat them, with the first stomp knocking their skull helmet off and the second stomp defeating them.<ref>https://rumble.com/v3oy3kq-mari-owonder-gameplay-official-nintendo-us.html</ref> A Ground Pound defeats them instantly. Similar to [[Dry Bones]], they are now also immune to [[fireball]]s while in their helmets.

===''Mario Party: Island Tour''===
Bone Goombas appear in ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'' on the [[Star-Crossed Skyway]] board. They appear on the third Star Stage initially on the second spot and give out five [[Mini Ztar]]s.

===''Paper Mario'' series===
====''Paper Mario: Color Splash''====
Bone Goombas make their ''Paper Mario'' debut in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'', where they are enemies that can be fought in [[Marmalade Valley]]. They are slightly stronger than regular Goombas, but otherwise act the same. In addition, it is the first game in which they can open their mouths.

====''Paper Mario: The Origami King''====
{{Quote|Me LOVE to open can with face! You have can? Need open?|Bone Goomba|Paper Mario: The Origami King}}
[[File:OrigamiBoneGoomba.jpg|thumb|An origami Bone Goomba]]

Bone Goombas return in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', where origami Bone Goombas appear as enemies in the [[Temple of Shrooms]], [[Bonehead Island]], and [[Scorching Sandpaper Desert]] once the sun returns. In battle, Bone Goombas attack similarly to regular Goombas with Skullbonk, though they are a lot stronger. A regular Bone Goomba also appears as part of the [[Canned-Food Par-tay Trio]] in Autumn Mountain and briefly accompanies Mario until he arrives at their party. If Mario enters battle while the Bone Goomba follows him, it aids in battle by attacking one enemy with Skullbonk, dealing 20 damage. However, this attack does not work against [[Spiny|Spinies]]. This Bone Goomba can also use its teeth to open cans, such as [[Canned Tuna]] and the [[Canned Heart]]. Another regular Bone Goomba appears in the [[Bonehead Island]] [[café]]. It offers for Mario to borrow its spoon, and then tells the [[Dry Bones]] that runs the café that its friend, another Dry Bones, is exhausted. Additionally, the Bone Goombas in this game speak in broken English.

===''Mario Sports Superstars''===
Bone Goombas appear in ''[[Mario Sports Superstars]]'' as one of the playable sidekicks in the soccer sport, marking the first playable appearance of a Bone Goomba. Unlike regular Goombas, Bone Goombas are exclusive to soccer. They also serve as obstacles in the Road to Superstar mode.

===''Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle''===
[[File:MRKBspookydesks.jpg|thumb|left|230px|An area with book shelves and carpets in ''Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle''. The side of a book shelf reveals a Bone Goomba graphic.]]
In ''[[Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle]]'', Bone Goombas appear as drawings imprinted on the sides of book shelves and bureaus found in several areas of [[Spooky Trails]]. These also feature [[Shy Guy]] masks.

===''Dr. Mario World''===
In ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'', Bone Goombas are introduced as assistants when World 23 was introduced, where they have a chance to transform viruses into [[rotating cannon]]s at stage start: one in stage mode and two in versus mode. The chance to do so is greater at higher levels, where it is 20% at the first level and 100% at the maximum level. Bone Goombas also appear in the backgrounds of [[World 11 (Dr. Mario World)|World 11]], [[World 13 (Dr. Mario World)|World 13]] and [[World 23]] after the areas within the worlds are cleared. A Bone Goomba is rewarded to the player when they cleared the first area of World 23.

==Trivia==
[[File:Bone Goomba SMB5 SMKun.png|thumb|Mario facing the Hone Kuribon]]
*Twenty-one years prior to ''New Super Mario Bros. 2'', a skeletal version of a [[Galoomba]] similar to a Bone Goomba called「ホネクリボン」(''Hone Kuribon'', "Bone Galoomba") is encountered in the [[Super Mario-kun Volume 1|first volume]] of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' in the chapter revolving around a theoretical "''Super Mario Bros. 5''". Upon being stomped, it releases a power-up that transforms Mario in a skeleton for a limited time.
