Gorumbla is a boss from Mario & Luigi: Brothership who resides on Rumbla Island. Accompanied by Guardarms, Gorumbla has a hobby of destroying the islanders' artwork. He is a strong and sturdy monster who bears a purple-yellow color scheme, has rocky, conjoined eyebrows, sports two stony collars on both of his arms, and wears a hoodie, notably filled with various stones shaped like outlets. His name may be a combination of "gorilla" and "rumble". Mario and Luigi get wind of the creature when Chief Willma explains that the Guardarms have become more destructive. With that information, the Bros. confront Gorumbla and face off against him.
In combat, Gorumbla uses his arms as shields, much like the Guardarms. To deal damage, Mario and Luigi have to attack the boss from an exposed direction. One of Gorumbla's primary attacks involves him pummeling the ground with his bare hands which, in turn, creates shockwaves for Mario and Luigi to dodge.[1] He can also slide on his belly, perform swipe attacks with his hands, or stab his head forward; this can also be jumped over. Another attack is where he drops colored blocks from the sky, which can be countered with hammers. The crimson blocks are directed at Mario, while the green ones go after Luigi.[2]
Gorumbla has a weakness in the form of a sculpture to the north of his arena; if Luigi uses his Luigi Logic skill, a stone placed on top of the sculpture can be dislodged and be sent flying at Gorumbla, who throws it at Mario. Mario has to stop this stone with his hammer, after which Luigi can use his own hammer to send the boulder at Gorumbla again, stunning him for a turn or two; in this state, Gorumbla will take more damage than normal.
Gorumbla gets infected by a toxic hatred-generating substance called Glohm later on, becoming Glohm Gorumbla, a trickier version of his destructive self during his first fight, leading to Chief Willma to scold him again. Upon being asked who raised him, the Glohm-infected brute claims that nobody did. Mario and Luigi, upon arriving on the scene, fight with him to stop him. During this fight, Gorumbla uses stronger versions of his first fight's moveset. After the battle, Gorumbla is reverted to normal and apologizes for his actions, but Willma mocks his apology only to be stopped by her children Maykit and Billdit, who mention how he looked after them while they were young. Willma, realising that she has been too rough, decides he can join. Gorumbla forms a Bond with his new family.
