History

Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story

In the game, he is first seen with Corporal Paraplonk and Sergeant Guy trying to take back Bowser's Castle with a Banzai Bill Blaster. However, they don't have ammo, leaving their king to get some. When Bowser acquires a Banzai Bill, his three underlings fire it into the castle.

Later, Bowser runs into Private Goomp wandering around alone outside Tower of Yikk. In talking with Private Goomp, Bowser learns that one of the three Star Cures is stored in his Treasure Chamber beneath his own castle. Bowser hastily leaves for said Treasure Chamber without Private Goomp.

At the Treasure Chamber, Private Goomp returns with his former companions, watching as Bowser defeats the Fawful Express, and as Mario and Luigi repair Bowser's memory of the combination. Once he opens the safe, however, the three quickly push him inside, stating that Fawful has placed a reward on Bowser's head. This same safe is later found in Peach's Castle.

Private Goomp's was seen comes after the closing credits of the game. Private Goomp and his two companions visit Bowser, who is bedridden after a fight with the Mario bros. They apologize for their treason and ask to rejoin the Koopa Troop. Bowser pardons them on the condition that they help with repairs on his Castle, as are the rest of his minions.

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team

In Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, it is revealed that Private Goomp was promoted along with his associates to "Bowser's Royal Guard". He travels with Bowser to P'illo Island to find Princess Peach. Private Goomp also helps Kamek disguise as Princess Peach forming a lower section of the disguise. It is also shown that he and his associates dream of bossing around Kamek and Bowser one day.

Private Goomp is also fought as part of a Boss Battle. During the battle he commands a large group of Goombas which he uses to attack. He will also revive fallen team mates. It is also shown that Private Goomp gets pulled into, the combo attack involving the 3, by running from Sergeant Guy who's carrying a large Bob-Bomb as they chase Mario. He will try to overtake the squad of Goomba's that will try and knock Mario over which will cause Sergeant Guy to drop the Bob-bomb on Mario. He reveals the secret to defeating them to the Bros., by accident, and is attacked by Sergeant Guy.

After being defeated, Kamek demotes them to janitors and sends them back to the castle.
