The '''Gritzy Desert''' is a large, barren desert in the northeastern-most part of the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] appearing in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. There is also evidence of remains of train tracks or mine-carts tracks.

In the game, the Mario Bros. arrive here during their quest to find the [[Cobalt Star]] pieces. The [[Koopaseum]] is located in the middle of the desert and [[Gritzy Caves]] is found below the desert. When [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Baby Mario]], and [[Baby Luigi]] attempt to enter the Koopaseum through the front door, they run away when a hoard of Shroobs from inside chases after them. After the group manages to escape all but one Shroob, Mario meets [[Kylie Koopa]], who informs him about a secret entrance to the Koopaseum that is unlocked by activating four [[Dry Bones]] statues scattered around the desert, while Luigi, Baby Mario, and Baby Luigi are chased by the Shroob, eventually defeating it.
