'''IDLE''' is a group of characters who appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]''. They are a team of four [[Concordia|Concordian]] children who all reside on [[Desolatt Island]], each with a yellow-orange scarf tied around a different part of their body. Its name is an acronym made up of the initials of their members:<ref name=NL>Nintendo Life (October 21, 2024). [https://youtu.be/AUxVdZkoAJw We've Played EVEN MORE Mario & Luigi: Brothership]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved October 21, 2024.</ref>

*[[Ireen]], a short, pink Concordian who wears her scarf as a hair bow, and is the self-proclaimed leader of the group. She fought the other IDLE members one-on-one to get them to join her team, forming IDLE.
*[[Dulles]], a lanky, green Concordian with his scarf tied around his antenna.
*[[Loog]], a short, blue Concordian wearing his scarf as a bandana. He also proclaims himself as the leader of the group.
*[[Ellow]], a stocky, yellow Concordian wearing his scarf as a sack that is tied underneath his head.

[[Princess Peach]], [[Starlow]], and [[Dorrie]] join the group after the [[Color-Full Sea Great Lighthouse Island]] is relit; Peach wears her scarf around her right arm, and Dorrie wears one around its neck, but Starlow does not wear one.

At one point in the game, the four Concordian members ride a missile, piledriving it into the barrier surrounding the Color-Full Sea's Great Lighthouse. (Ellow holds the rocket directly, with the rest holding onto his back.) It is later revealed that they survived. The group also goes on scouting missions throughout the game.

If the player chooses [[Adaphne]]'s upgrade for [[Shipshape Island]], the group, along with Peach, Starlow, Dorrie, and [[Technikki]] save Mario, Luigi, and [[Cozette]] as [[Fortress Zokket]] transforms into the [[Soli-Tree]]. Later, the group gets scattered and has to be found on [[Shrimpee Islet]] and [[Mykroh Islet]], with their [[Bond]] being collected afterward. This Bond is one of the Bonds necessary for breaching the barrier that [[Reclusa]] sets up around the Soli-Tree.

During the end of the game, the group says their goodbyes along with the rest of the cast. They are later shown posing in front of a Concordian child in [[Allsand Island]] during the credits.
