Gorumbla is a boss from Mario & Luigi: Brothership who resides on Rumbla Island. 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". One of his 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 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.[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.
