A '''Gritty Goomba''' is a type of [[Goomba]] that appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and its remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''. Gritty Goombas are found in [[Teehee Valley]], occasionally appearing with [[Spiky Snifit]]s. They appear to be swathed in cloth, resembling a mummy, and they don a pair of sunglasses, with a spear and colored flag protruding from their head.
A '''Gritty Goomba''' is a [[Goomba]] enemy that appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. They appear to be swathed in cloth and wearing what appears to be a pair of sunglasses. with a spike and colored flag protruding from its head. The Gritty Goombas appear in [[Teehee Valley]], occasionally appearing with [[Spiky Snifits]]. [[Gritty Goomba (Gwarhar Lagoon)|The brown ones]] found in [[Gwarhar Lagoon]] always have green flags; the latter type also has the higher stats of the two. Gritty Goombas are capable of summoning sandstorms and using them as a cover while trying to run into the Mario Bros., who must counter with their [[Hammer]]s.


During the events of the game, [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] must protect [[Princess Peach]] from these Goombas as she crosses Teehee Valley to get to [[Little Fungitown]]. If they let one get too close, or else leave her offscreen too long, the Gritty Goomba grabs the Princess and carries her down a yellow [[Warp Pipe]] leading to underground ruins, which Mario and Luigi must enter to save Peach. If the player returns to Teehee Valley later in the game, most of the Gritty Goombas are replaced by [[Anuboo]]s, save for the ones in the underground ruins. Additionally, when [[Trunkle]] uses his vacuum breath, Gritty Goombas are one of the things that can be pulled in.
During the events of ''Superstar Saga'', [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] had to protect [[Princess Peach]] from these Goombas as she crossed Teehee Valley to get to [[Little Fungitown]]. If they let one get too close, or else left her offscreen too long, it would grab the Princess and drag her down a [[Warp Pipe]] to an underground base, which the Mario Bros. can infiltrate to save Peach. After returning to the desert to find the first [[Beanstar]] piece, most of the Gritty Goombas had been mysteriously replaced by [[Anuboo]]s, save for the ones in the Warp Pipes.
 
A stronger variant, called an [[Elite Gritty Goomba]], can be found in [[Gwarhar Lagoon]].
 
==Battle==
Gritty Goombas attack by ramming into the Mario Bros., similar to normal Goombas; however, they will summon sandstorms and use them as a cover in order to obscure which brother they are targeting. The Bros. must counter the attack with their [[Hammer]]s.
 
In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', Gritty Goombas appear as enemies in ''Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser''. They are melee troopers, and attack by charging into minions. Their [[Special Skill (Mario & Luigi series)|Special Skill]] is Rocket Headbutt, which allows them to jump headfirst into a minion. Due to the spear on their heads, attacking them from above damages minions.
