ParaGoomba - A Goomba with wings.


There are many variations of Goombas that appear throughout the series, each having even the most minor separation from a regular Goomba, ranging from strength to color to abilities.
Spiked Goomba - A Goomba with a spike cap on it’s head.


A common variant is the '''Paragoomba''', a Goomba with white, feathery wings that allow it to fly. Some Paragoombas are only capable of fluttering into the air, while others are capable of flying freely.
Hyper Goomba - A Gooba with higher attack power and a yellowish tinge to it’s skin.


'''Tanoombas''' only appeared in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', where they were commonly found near the BeanBean Kingdom. They share the regular traits of the Goomba, but are covered in Tanuki fur, a Tanuki tail, and a Tanuki leaf. In battle, they are able to jump high into the air, and suspend themselves in the air temporarily by either swinging their tail or spinning around, using their tail as a weapon to attack enemies. The Tanuki leaf on the top of their head allows them to transform into [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]], but will still feature the Tanuki tail. It is not yet known whether or not Tanoombas will appear in the Nintendo DS game ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''.
Gold Goomba - A Goomba with shinning gold skin. Not much is known about them. They were first seen in [[Mario Party 6]].
 
Gloomba - A Gooba with high defence and a dark-blueish tinge to it’s skin. They only seem to exist in very dark places, such as the [[Pit of 100 Trials]].
 
Tanoomba - A Gooba with the raccoon tail and ears similar to those granted by a [[Super Leaf]]. Seem to be native to [[BeanBean Land]].
 
Gritty Goomba - A Goomba made of sand. They only exist in [[TeeHee Valley]].
