The '''Spiny Shroopa''' is the [[Shroob]] version of the [[Spiny]]. A Spiny Shroopa has a purple shell with pink spikes. Unlike Spinies, Spiny Shroopas stand on their hind legs. Also, small, gray arms stick out the front of a Spiny Shroopa's shell. A Spiny Shroopa's head stays inside its shell; as such, only its glowing yellow eyes remain visible. To move, Spiny Shroopas do not walk. Instead, they use their long hind legs, as they hop like frogs to move from place to place.

During the Shroob invasion of the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', Spiny Shroopas were ordered to protect the [[Vim Factory]]. In battle, a Spiny Shroopa would attack by charging at an opponent. To counter-attack, [[Baby Mario]] and [[Baby Luigi]] had to hit the Spiny Shroopa with their [[Hammers]] as the monster approached. Sometimes, a Spiny Shroopa's charge attack could [[Poison (status effect)|poison]] a Mario Bro. if it was not counter-attacked.

==Trivia== 
*If Baby Mario and Baby Luigi aren't present during the battle with the Spiny Shroopas, the Shroopa will, rather than leaping at one of the adults, roll into its egg shape and roll toward [[Mario]] where it is dodged by '''jumping'''. 
*If it is stomped once in its egg, it will stall then attack.
