'''Komboos'''<ref>Walsh, Doug, and Epstein, Joe. ''Super Mario Odyssey'' Prima Official Guide. Page 345.</ref> are walking {{wp|giant kelp}}-like creatures with eyes found in the [[Lake Kingdom]] and [[Seaside Kingdom]] of ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. They have four legs, come in one of two heights, and can be green, yellow, and purple. Their name is likely a reference to {{wp|kombu}}, a variety of seaweed used extensively in Japanese cuisine. They are normally found in chasms in Lake Lamode and Bubblaine. If [[Mario]] swims to their spawning point, Komboo will emerge and start walking in a swaying motion towards Mario. They often appear in groups, adding to the challenge. Additionally, some Komboo walk on the ceiling of a cave. Komboo stick to their current platform and cannot fall off to pursue further. If lured far enough, a Komboo retreats into the ground and returns to its starting position.

Their name is likely a reference to {{wp|kombu}}, a variety of seaweed used extensively in Japanese cuisine. They are normally found in chasms in Lake Lamode and Bubblaine, and if [[Mario]] swims to their spawning point, they will emerge and start walking in a swaying motion towards Mario with their four legs so their bodies can hit him accordingly, and attempt to swarm Mario. Mario can simply throw [[Cappy]] at them to take them out; however, they will continue to respawn from the same position. They can be found in green, yellow, and purple. Komboos also cannot be [[capture]]d.
 
In the Seaside Kingdom, activating certain [[glowing spot]]s cause a group of Komboos to appear surrounding the spot, though these do not respawn.
 
The [[Cap Throw]] defeats these enemies, further meaning they cannot be [[capture]]d. Attacks from other captured enemies can also defeat them. [[Jump]]ing on Komboo has no effect, but a [[Ground Pound]] defeats them. Defeating Komboo only offers brief respite, as they will continue to respawn from the same position.  
 
The "[[List of Power Moons in the Seaside Kingdom#Bubblaine Northern Reaches|Bubblaine Northern Reaches]]" [[Power Moon]] is obtained through fighting a number of these enemies at a group of glowing spots in Bubblaine, where each spot triggers a new set of spawns and obtaining the Power Moon makes them all sink back into the sand.


In the Super Mario Mash-up in ''[[Minecraft]]'', Kelp is replaced by Komboos.
