Gearmo, Super Mario Galaxy 2

The gold Gearmo is a minor character in Super Mario Galaxy 2. It sends a letter to Mario asking for help in the Boulder Bowl Galaxy. This letter opens the mission C'mere, Goomba. The gold Gearmo appears on the Boulder Planet, and Mario has to go talk to it. When Mario speaks with it, it tells him that it loves Goombas and requests that he needs to search for one. It then makes four pillars appear, and Mario has to get the Goomba to come in between them. They can also be broken open for Star Bits.

Gearmo with its new Goomba

Once Mario finds and lures a Goomba into the square, the gold Gearmo becomes very happy, exclaims its delight for the captured Goomba, and thanks the player with a Power Star. After the mission, the gold Gearmo can be found on Starship Mario, and it shares a 1-Up Mushroom with Mario as thanks for helping it. If the player speaks with the Gearmo after Mario collects the 1-Up Mushroom, it will respond by saying, "I kinda dig those Goomba guys." For the rest of the game, it can be found having tea with the similar silver Gearmo, who collects Topmen.
