'''Thorbs''' are spiky pumpkin-like [[List of enemies|enemies]] that appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', being an introductory enemy to using hammers. Their name is a portmanteau of "thorn" and "orb." Thorbs appear commonly in [[Mushrise Park]].

In the field, if a Thorb notices [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]], it rattles while pointing its spikes at them. Thorbs do not move while doing this.

In battle, Thorbs compress themselves down and spiral into Mario and Luigi in a clockwise or counter-clockwise pattern once, who must [[jump]] over them when they get near them in order to avoid taking damage. They also approach a Bro., and run at them with their spikes pointed at them, much like [[Capnap]]s. The targeted Bro. must [[hammer]] the Thorb when it gets within range to counter-attack and avoid taking damage. 

Being spiky, it takes no damage from jump attacks; jumping on it will deal 1 point of damage to Mario or Luigi.

Two Thorbs are seen harassing a [[Toad (species)|Toad]]; Mario and Luigi must battle them. This battle serves as a tutorial for hammer attacks.

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]'', there is a blue, levitating creature with spikes on its head called the [[Spikely]], which greatly resembles a Thorb.
