The '''Red & Blue Goomba Bros.''', also called the '''Goomba Bros.''', are two [[Goomba]] brothers known as '''Red Goomba''' and '''Blue Goomba''' from ''[[Paper Mario]]''. They serve the [[Goomboss|Goomba King]], who is under [[Bowser]]'s orders to stop [[Mario]] and [[Goombario]] from getting to [[Toad Town]].
==History==
The Red & Blue Goomba Bros. are first encountered at the end of [[Goomba Road]], where they explain that Mario cannot pass without fighting them.


In battle, they are nearly identical to Goombas, each with an attack power of 1 and their only attack being a headbonk. The only notable difference is their higher HP; Red Goomba has 7 HP and Blue Goomba has 6 HP. This is still enough to provide a sufficient threat to Mario, as he does not have access to [[Action Command]]s yet, including the ability to [[guard]].
'''Red and Blue Goomba''', also called the '''Notorious Goomba Brothers''', are two Goombas who serve the [[Goomboss|Goomba King]], under [[Bowser|King Bowser's]] orders to stop [[Mario]] and [[Goombario]] from getting to [[Toad Town]] in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. After Mario gets the Hammer and Goombario joins his team, he can move ahead to [[Goomba Road]]. At the end is the Red and Blue Goombas, who Mario must fight. Afterwards, the Goomba Brothers start to cry and retreat in shame, and Mario is allowed passage to the [[Goomba King's Fortress]], where he encounters the Goomba King himself. The Goomba King and the Red and Blue Goombas all attack Mario at once. However, the hero can take out the Red and Blue Goombas in one hit by attacking the nearby [[Goomnut]] tree with his [[Hammer]], since they aren't fully recovered and thus have low HP. Alternatively, he could use a [[Fire Flower]].


When defeated, the Goomba Bros. begin to cry, and retreat out of shame. They reappear a short time later at the [[Goomba King's Fortress]], where they aid the Goomba King in battle. Since they are not fully recovered from the previous fight, they only have 2 HP each, the same as a normal Goomba. Mario can easily defeat them both at once via an attack item (e.g. [[Fire Flower]]) or by attacking the nearby [[Goomnut]] tree.
The Goomba Bros. later send a [[List of letters in Paper Mario#Red and Blue Goomba|letter]] to [[Goombario]], saying that they admire his strength and would like to become friends. Despite this, the game's ending parade clearly depicts the Red and Blue Goombas aiding the Goomba King once again (although the credits parades are believed to be out of continuity, as specifically suggested by the appearance of [[Tubba's Heart]] and [[Huff N. Puff]]).


When the three Goombas are defeated, they retreat into the fortress. Inside, the Goomba King confers with his minions. Red Goomba reveals that he hid the [[! Switch#Paper Mario|! Switch]] that opens the way back to Toad Town outside in a bush. Before the Goomba King has time to relocate the switch to a less obvious location, Mario finds and presses it. The bridge jumps out of the fortress itself, sending the Goomba King careening into the sky.  
A species of blue Goombas (called [[Gloomba]]s) can be found in all of the ''[[Paper Mario]]'' games.


While the Goomba Bros. were last heard inside the fortress, they were not seen flying with the Goomba King. They later send a [[List of letters in Paper Mario#Red & Blue Goomba Bros.|letter]] to Goombario, saying that they admire his strength and would like to become friends.
[[Angry Goomba]] and [[Sad Goomba]] from ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'' are both red and blue Goombas (respectively); however, they are a species, and are colored as a cartoony way to depict their emotion. (For instance, the Sad Goombas are blue possibly due to the phrase "feeling blue", meaning "feeling sad", and the Angry Goombas are red most likely due to the cartoon gag of a person's face turning red upon getting angry.)


The game's [[victory parade]] shows the Goomba Bros. panicking while the Goomba King is stuck in a tree. After he falls out, they follow him offscreen.
