'''Support Shroobs''' are normal-looking [[Shroobs]] that aided [[Commander Shroob]] in his battle against the Mario Bros. of past and present. During the confrontation, the Support Shroobs wielded gigantic [[Shroob-ombs]], attempting to defeat the Mario Bros. with the bombs massive explosions.

To attack the heroic [[Mario]] brothers, the Support Shroobs would throw the Shroob-omb at one of the brothers. Fortunately, the Shroob-omb would wink to indicate which Bro. it would be thrown at. If the [[Bob-omb]] winked its right eye, the Support Shroobs would throw the explosive at Mario. If the bomb winked its left eye, [[Luigi]] would be attacked. The Baby Mario Bros. could counter the Shroob-omb attack by deflecting the massive bomb with their [[Hammers]]. Unfortunately, the Support Shroobs could also deflect the Shroob-omb back to a Mario brother. After several successful volleys by the Mario Bros., the bomb would eventually explode and damage the Support Shroobs. However, if the Mario Bros. failed to deflect the Shroob-omb and were caught in the explosion, both brothers would be damaged and could even become [[Dizzy]]. After the inevitable explosion, a [[Shroob UFO]] would fly into the battlefield and drop another Shroob-omb for the Support Shroobs to use.

Additionally, instead of throwing the Shroob-omb at the Mario Bros., the Support Shroobs would throw the Shroob-omb high in the air. While the bomb was in the air, the Support Shroobs would quickly charge into a Mario Bro. They would look at Mario's direction if they were attacking him and would look straight ahead when attacking Luigi when they were throwing the shroob-omb up. The brothers could counter by jumping on their respective attackers. After attacking, the Support Shroobs would catch the Shroob-omb as the explosive device fell to the ground.

Three Support Shroobs were needed to hold one Shroob-omb. If one Support Shroob was destroyed, the two remaining Shroobs soldiers would start flashing red under the stress of the bombs weight. However, the two Support Shroobs could still lift the massive Shroob-omb. If two Support Shroobs were destroyed, the last one would be crushed and the Shroob-omb would roll away. If the Support Shroob on the far left was the sole remaining Shroob, the Shroob-omb would roll backwards and explode, knocking Commander Shroob into the battle. If the far right Support Shroob remained, the massive Bob-omb would roll in the opposite direction and damage both Mario Bros. If the middle one was left standing, the Shroob-omb could roll in either direction after crushing it.

Additionally, Commander Shroob launched Support Shroobs to attack the four Mario brothers during the epic confrontation between the military commander and the four heroes.

*During the battle with Commander Shroob, the four Mario Bros. receive [[Experience Points]] and [[Coins]] from every Support Shroob destroyed in battle, even if they were crushed by a Shroob-omb.<ref name="pit"/>
