This article is about a subject in an upcoming or recently released game. When the game is released, or more information about this subject is found, this article may need major rewriting.
This notice should be removed after a month has passed since the game was first released.

Glohm is a corruptive substance that appears in Mario & Luigi: Brothership. Its name is a portmanteau of "gloom" and "ohm". It is manufactured by Zokket and used on the citizens of Concordia by the Zok Troopers and the Extension Corps, causing anyone infected to want to seek isolation from everyone else and shut their heart to them. Its effects are first seen on Bulbfish Island. Ampberries are an antidote to the Glohm.

Various enemies also become infected with Glohm, making them more powerful, while also possessing a darker red tint and glowing eyes. Attacks from enemies are significantly faster. Infected enemies can create a spiked shield which breaks after being hit with an attack, although the shield is often two layers. Singular enemies sometimes create clones of themself and shuffle between the fakes. Finally, defeated enemies sometimes release a shockwave which must be jumped over. Glohm versions of enemies first appear on the field in Heatfreeze Island, but as the story progresses, Glohm versions of enemies take the place of regular versions in other locations, an example being Twistee Island when unlinked from Shipshape Island. After defeating Zokket, most regular enemies throughout all islands are replaced with Glohm versions.

If Mario and Luigi take damage from a Glohm-infected enemy, they may become inflicted with the Glohm status effect. If a Bro. is Glohmed, the Bros. can neither work together for jump and hammer attacks nor use any Bros. Attacks available, and Luigi Logic cannot be used in boss battles, similar to Prohibited Command. Before initiating a jump or hammer attack, the infected brother shudders in fear, while a non-infected brother sighs, then uses a solo attack. Refreshing Herbs have a 50% chance of curing Glohm, whereas Ampberries always cure it. Zokket is also able to infuse his attacks with Glohm, making them more dangerous, when he drops below half health.
