A '''Shroob Rex''' is a purple [[Rex]] found in [[Shroob Castle]], during the events of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. Shroob Rexes never appear in the overworld, they only appear in battle alongside other enemies.

In battle, they use a wide variety of attacks. First, they jump, then [[Ground Pound]], creating an energy wave. This attack can be dodged by [[Jump]]ing. However, the timing changes depending on where the Shroob Rex Ground Pounds. If the Shroob Rex ground pounds closer to [[Luigi]], he must jump first, followed by [[Mario]]. If closer to Mario, he must jump first, followed by Luigi. If the Shroob Rex Ground Pounds at an equal distance between the two, both Mario Bros. must jump at the same time to avoid the energy wave. This attack can cause the [[Trip]] status ailment.

A Shroob Rex can also shoot boulders at the Mario Bros. These boulders can be deflected with a [[Hammer]]. When shot, the boulder may split in two, requiring both Baby Mario Bros. to swing their Hammers at the same time. Additionally, the Shroob Rex can fire one boulder that homes in on one Mario Bro. When deflected, the boulder rolls into the second Mario brother, and must be deflected again. It homes in on Mario first when it lifts its head up before spitting out the fireball and it homes in on Luigi first if it lifts its head down. If it does not lift its head, the fireball splits in two. This attack can cause the [[Burn]] status ailment.

The Shroob Rex's final attack is simply charging into a Mario Bro., running off the battlefield and into the back of the second Mario Bro. This attack can be dodged or countered by jumping, but only if certain prerequisites are met. A normal-sized Shroob Rex is too tall to jump over, so the attack cannot be dodged. However, whenever a Mario Bro. jumps on a Shroob Rex, it becomes flatter like a normal Rex. Only the flattened Shroob Rex can be jumped over.

At 200 HP, the Shroob Rex has the highest HP of all regular enemies, surpassing the first four bosses and, in the international releases, on par with [[Swiggler]].
