'''Paper Goombas''' are paper forms of [[Goomba]]s that appear as enemies in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''. They are commonly found in [[Sunbeam Plains]]. A stack of Paper Goombas is fought in the area as a tutorial boss for [[Paper Mario (character)|Paper Mario]]. Another Paper Goomba is fought in [[Neo Bowser Castle]] alongside a regular Goomba, a [[Koopa Troopa]] and a [[Paper Koopa Troopa]] as one of [[Bowser]]'s last lines of defense. Rare, shiny variants can also appear in place of the regular Paper Goombas in Sunbeam Plains. Stronger versions of a shiny Paper Goomba can also appear alongside [[Shiny RoboBowser]] during the final boss battle, which have even greater stats and will always drop a [[Max Mushroom]] upon defeat. One Paper Goomba pilots the [[Papercraft#Papercraft Megacrinkle Goomba|Papercraft Megacrinkle Goomba]].

==Battle==
Regular Paper Goombas attack by trying to walk into [[Mario]], [[Luigi]] or Paper Mario, and can also jump up and floating down towards them. Both attacks can be dodged by jumping. The Paper Goomba stack fought in Sunbeam Plains has higher [[Power|POW]] and [[Defense|DEF]], and can attack by forming into a [[Goomba Wheel]] and ramming into Paper Mario. Shiny Paper Goombas have greater stats, though their methods of attack remain the same, and will always drop a [[Syrup Jar]] and [[1-Up Mushroom]] when defeated.
