Pumpkinhead Goombas made their debut in ''Super Mario Galaxy''. They can be found in the [[Ghostly Galaxy]]. | Pumpkinhead Goombas made their debut in ''Super Mario Galaxy''. They can be found in the [[Ghostly Galaxy]]. These pumpkin-wearing [[Goomba]]s are capable of producing small blue flames in an attempt to burn [[Mario]] (or [[Luigi]]), yet the ability is lost when their pumpkins are destroyed. To break their jack-o'-lantern helmets, Mario must [[spin]]. [[Ground Pound|Ground-pound]]ing a Pumpkinhead Goomba, however, destroys both the pumpkin helmet and the Goomba in one pound. Once the Pumpkinhead Goomba loses its pumpkin cover, it is simply a regular Goomba. If the player ground-pounds a Pumpkinhead Goomba after it just produced a blue flame, Mario will get burned if he touches it. Also, if one tries to jump on one, the pumpkin will not break. If Mario runs into a Pumpkinhead Goomba as [[Rainbow Mario]], only their gourd headgear will be demolished. | ||
Pumpkinhead Goombas, along with other enemies, can be seen dancing with [[Toad (species)|Toads]] in the center of [[Toad Town]] during the game's ending. | Pumpkinhead Goombas, along with other enemies, can be seen dancing with [[Toad (species)|Toads]] in the center of [[Toad Town]] during the game's ending. | ||
