A '''Shroobsworth''' is an elderly, lighter-colored [[Shroob]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. Shroobsworths are designed to resemble [[Toadsworth]], [[Princess Peach]]'s longtime steward. As such, a Shroobsworth has a white mustache and a cane. These elderly Shroobs carry the younger [[Intern Shroobs]] on their backs, piggyback style (like [[Mario]] and [[Baby Mario]] or [[Luigi]] and [[Baby Luigi]]). Shroobsworths, along with their younger counterparts, were assigned to protect the halls of [[Shroob Castle]], the [[Shroobified]] version of [[Princess Peach's Castle]], during the Shroob occupation of the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. As such, the four Mario Bros. of past and present battled many Shroobsworth's and Intern Shroobs during the heroes' efforts to rescue Peach, defeat [[Princess Shroob]], and destroy the Shroob menace.

A '''Shroobsworth''' is an elderly, lighter-colored [[Shroob]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. Shroobsworths are designed to resemble [[Toadsworth]]. As such, a Shroobsworth has a white mustache and a cane. These elderly Shroobs carry the younger [[Intern Shroob]]s on their backs, piggyback style (similar to [[Mario]] and [[Baby Mario]] or [[Luigi]] and [[Baby Luigi]]). Shroobsworths are found in [[Shroob Castle]]. In the overworld, Shroobsworths try to attack the Mario Bros. by throwing their Intern Shroob in the air, which will take out a ray gun and shoot at the bros. to engage them in battle.
In battle, a Shroobsworth fights with the help of the [[Intern Shroob]] on its back. To attack, a Shroobsworth may throw the Intern Shroob in the air. While high above the ground, the younger Shroob will shoot energy blasts from a [[cannon]] downwards at the Mario Brothers. If it is rightside up, it will hit Mario, and if it is upside down it will hit Luigi. Luigi and Mario could dodge this attack by [[jump]]ing. However, if the Shroobsworth throws the Intern Shroob extremely high in the air, the younger Shroob will not attack. Instead, Shroobsworth will quickly run up to the Mario brothers and strike them with his cane (showing that the elderly Shroob doesn't really need the cane after all). Similar to the laser attack, if the Intern Shroob is rightside up, Shroobsworth would first hit Mario, and then Luigi, and if it is upside down, Shroobsworth would hit Luigi first, then Mario. Again, the Mario brothers can jump to avoid this attack. After attacking, the Shroobsworth will return to its original position and catch the falling Intern Shroob.


Lastly, Shroobsworth can attack with a powerful dark meteor. When using this technique, the Intern Shroob will take out a meteor and toss the dark rock at the Mario brother Shroobsworth points to. The dark meteor can be deflected with [[Hammer]] swings; however, Shroobsworth and the Intern Shroob will knock it back, meaning the Baby Mario brothers must deflect the meteor multiple times. If Shroobsworth deflects the meteor with his cane, the rock will hit Luigi; if the Intern Shroob hits the dark meteor, the rock will hit Mario. After enough deflections, the meteor will eventually hit Shroobsworth and cause damage.
In battle, a Shroobsworth fights with the help of the [[Intern Shroob]] on its back. To attack, a Shroobsworth may throw the Intern Shroob in the air. While high above the ground, the Intern Shroob shoots energy blasts from a yellow laser cannon downwards at the Mario Bros. If it is right-side up, it hits Mario, and if it is upside down, it hits Luigi. The bros. can dodge this attack by [[jump]]ing. However, if the Shroobsworth throws the Intern Shroob above the Top Screen, the Intern Shroob does not attack. Instead, the Shroobsworth quickly runs up to the Mario brothers and strikes them with its cane while the Intern Shroob flutters its arms to slow its descent. Similar to the laser attack, if the Intern Shroob is right-side up, the Shroobsworth first hits Mario, and then Luigi, and if it is upside down, the Shroobsworth hits Luigi first, then Mario. Again, the brothers can jump to avoid this attack.


Unfortunately, once a Shroobsworth is defeated, the battle will not end, as the Intern Shroob will replace the Shroobsworth in combat (like when an older Mario brother falls in battle, the baby counterpart will replace him). However, instead of fighting, the Intern Shroob will revive the Shroobsworth with a special green [[Shroobified]] [[1-Up  Mushroom]]. Once revived, the Mario Bros. must eliminate Shroobsworth all over again.
Lastly, the Shroobsworth can attack with a dark purple meteor. When using this move, the Intern Shroob takes out a meteor and tosses it at the brother the Shroobsworth points to. The meteor can be deflected with [[Hammer]] swings; however, the Shroobsworth and the Intern Shroob knock it back, meaning the baby Mario brothers must deflect the meteor multiple times. If the Shroobsworth deflects the meteor with its cane, the rock hits Luigi; if the Intern Shroob deflects it, the rock hits Mario. After enough deflections, the meteor eventually hits the Shroobsworth and causes damage. The meteor can cause the [[Dizzy]] status effect.


== Trivia ==
Once a Shroobsworth is defeated, the Intern Shroob knocks the Shroobsworth away and replaces him in combat, similar to how a baby Mario bro. will carry his older counterpart away and replace him when he gets knocked out. However, instead of fighting, the Intern Shroob revives the Shroobsworth with a Shroob-eyed [[1-Up Mushroom]], though the Intern Shroob waits a turn before doing so. Once revived, the Mario Bros. must eliminate the Shroobsworth again.
*It is unknown exactly why a Shroobsworth looks like Toadsworth, as [[Toadsworth the Younger|the one from its time]] was in the present time period during the invasion. They may have somehow taken his [[wikipedia:DNA|DNA]] when they took over the castle, but it is still unknown if Shroobification works in that fashion.

A Shroobsworth is an elderly, lighter-colored Shroob in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. Shroobsworths are designed to resemble Toadsworth. As such, a Shroobsworth has a white mustache and a cane. These elderly Shroobs carry the younger Intern Shroobs on their backs, piggyback style (similar to Mario and Baby Mario or Luigi and Baby Luigi). Shroobsworths are found in Shroob Castle. In the overworld, Shroobsworths try to attack the Mario Bros. by throwing their Intern Shroob in the air, which will take out a ray gun and shoot at the bros. to engage them in battle.

In battle, a Shroobsworth fights with the help of the Intern Shroob on its back. To attack, a Shroobsworth may throw the Intern Shroob in the air. While high above the ground, the Intern Shroob shoots energy blasts from a yellow laser cannon downwards at the Mario Bros. If it is right-side up, it hits Mario, and if it is upside down, it hits Luigi. The bros. can dodge this attack by jumping. However, if the Shroobsworth throws the Intern Shroob above the Top Screen, the Intern Shroob does not attack. Instead, the Shroobsworth quickly runs up to the Mario brothers and strikes them with its cane while the Intern Shroob flutters its arms to slow its descent. Similar to the laser attack, if the Intern Shroob is right-side up, the Shroobsworth first hits Mario, and then Luigi, and if it is upside down, the Shroobsworth hits Luigi first, then Mario. Again, the brothers can jump to avoid this attack.

Lastly, the Shroobsworth can attack with a dark purple meteor. When using this move, the Intern Shroob takes out a meteor and tosses it at the brother the Shroobsworth points to. The meteor can be deflected with Hammer swings; however, the Shroobsworth and the Intern Shroob knock it back, meaning the baby Mario brothers must deflect the meteor multiple times. If the Shroobsworth deflects the meteor with its cane, the rock hits Luigi; if the Intern Shroob deflects it, the rock hits Mario. After enough deflections, the meteor eventually hits the Shroobsworth and causes damage. The meteor can cause the Dizzy status effect.

Once a Shroobsworth is defeated, the Intern Shroob knocks the Shroobsworth away and replaces him in combat, similar to how a baby Mario bro. will carry his older counterpart away and replace him when he gets knocked out. However, instead of fighting, the Intern Shroob revives the Shroobsworth with a Shroob-eyed 1-Up Mushroom, though the Intern Shroob waits a turn before doing so. Once revived, the Mario Bros. must eliminate the Shroobsworth again.
