'''Goombules''' are a type of cell-based [[Goomba]] found inside of the [[Trash Pit]] and [[Pump Works]] of [[Bowser's body]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]''. They have a dark pink egg-yolk shaped body with an orange nucleus in the center. In the field, Goombules generally wander around, but encroaching upon their territory may cause them to charge the intruder. A Goombule can be found assisting [[Spike Blop]]s in combat. To attack [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]], a Goombule either charges at the Bros. or tries to roll into them. When a Goombule begins its attacks, it either walks directly to the brother it will use its charge attack against, or it pauses in the center of the battlefield and leans forward or backwards, if it is using its roll attack. If it leans backwards, it is targeting Mario; if it leans forward, it is going to attack Luigi. Both attacks of the Goombule enemies can be avoided by jumping out the way, and with the correct timing, the [[jump]] can also be used as a [[counterattack]].

In the Trash Pit, if Goombules are encountered without other enemies, they always appear in groups of two or three. In the Pump Works, they can appear in groups of up to six.

When Mario and Luigi practice one of their [[Bros. Attack|Special Attacks]] in the "Specials" section in the [[star menu]], the targets are Goombules. They are the first and weakest enemies Mario and Luigi encounter as a team, and ultimately the weakest enemies in the game.

The name Goombule is a portmanteau of "Goomba" and "globule". [[Starlow]] also calls them "amoeba things" at the beginning of the game. Goombules are also related to [[Elite Goombule]]s, which is a stronger sub-species of Goombules that are colored blue, and wear [[Buzzy Shell]]s on their heads that defend them from above attacks. In the [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|remake]], they are even weaker.
