'''Flomps''' (also called '''floating plates'''<ref>{{cite|author=Browne, Catherine|title=''Super Mario Galaxy 2: PRIMA Official Game Guide''|location=Roseville|publisher=Random House Inc|date=May 23, 2010|page=106|isbn=978-0-30746-907-6}}</ref> or '''flipping panels'''<ref>{{cite|author=Browne, Catherine|title=''Super Mario Galaxy 2: PRIMA Official Game Guide''|location=Roseville|publisher=Random House Inc|date=May 23, 2010|page=272|isbn=978-0-30746-907-6}}</ref>) are [[List of enemies|enemies]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Their name is a portmanteau of "flip" and "Thwomp," alluding to their behavior and appearance. These [[Thwomp]]-like creatures appear as green platforms with spikes on their sides and have similar faces to [[Bomp]]s.

==History==
===''Super Mario Galaxy 2''===
Flomps are enemies in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''. They mostly act as ordinary platforms, with some revolving mildly in one spot and others moving from side to side. However, at set intervals, they make a rattling sound, their faces become angry, and then they quickly flip over. If [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] is on one of these platforms when they flip, he will be knocked high into the air. They appear only in [[Bowser's Lava Lair]] and the [[Grandmaster Galaxy]].

===''Mario Party: Island Tour''===
Flomps are obstacles in the minigame [[Flip Out]] in ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]''. Flomps act and look like they did in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''. Flomps are used by the player characters as regular platforms to cross a chasm to the finish line, though characters that stay on a Flomp as it flips are flung three spaces backwards.
