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.

'''Flomps'''<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vkzxf2ITZt0#t=469]</ref> (known as '''Floating Plates''' in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] guide) are a type of Thwomp appearing in the game ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''. They appear as a green platform with spikes on their sides and have a similar face to a [[Bomp]]. They move from side to side. At first glance, they seem like ordinary platforms, but after a few seconds, they make a malicious face and 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 in only two galaxies: [[Bowser's Lava Lair]] and the [[Grandmaster Galaxy]].


==History==
Flomps make a reappearance in ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'', for the [[Nintendo 3DS]], acting and looking like they did in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''. They appear in the [[minigame]] [[Flip Out]].  
===''Super Mario Galaxy 2''===
Flomps 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.
