#{{User|YoshiKong}} Although I saw the quick logic in bringing the two articles together, I now have enough doubts to oppose this merge. Taking another enemy from ''Super Mario Land 2'' as an example, [[Honebōn]] is separate from [[Fish Bone]] and [[Jean de Fillet]]. We wouldn't merge all of these three together, just because they appear similar. It is the '' official name'' and ''game series'' that distinguishes them.

One part I'm iffy about is the different Japanese names: Goomdiver is ''クリダイバー'' (Kuri Daibā) and Aqua Kuribō is ''アクアクリボー'' (Aqua Kuribō... duh). Yes, the Aqua Kuribo name is official, it's in the KC Deluxe manga. Do you think it matters? {{User:Time Turner/sig}} 13:15, 17 July 2016 (EDT) | One part I'm iffy about is the different Japanese names: Goomdiver is ''クリダイバー'' (Kuri Daibā) and Aqua Kuribō is ''アクアクリボー'' (Aqua Kuribō... duh).
