The minigame opens with a scene of an inflatable [[Thwomp]] dropping to the ground.
Players must [[Ground Pound]] an inflatable, blue [[Thwomp]] made of rubber enough to completely deflate it. The higher the jump before the Pound, the more air gets deflated. The first team to completely deflate their Thwomp wins.
==Ending==
The team that deflated their Thwomp will do their victory poses, while the losing team sulks.


Both teams [[Ground Pound|ground-pound]] their inflatable blue Thwomp repeatedly with the goal of deflating it entirely. Ground Pounds from higher [[jump]]s deflate the Thwomp further. The first team to meet the objective wins, but if neither team does so within 30 seconds, it is a tie.
