'''Captain Goomba''' is the main protagonist of the ''Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser'' story mode from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', and the Mario Bros' first enemy in the original version of the game. The mode takes place concurrent with the main story of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga|Superstar Saga]]'', after the [[Koopa Cruiser]] crashes into [[Stardust Fields]]. His goal throughout the story is to travel around the [[Beanbean Kingdom]] to reunite and rally all members of [[Bowser]]'s [[Koopa Troop|army]], and ultimately, reunite with their leader, Bowser, and multiple times, this plays a direct role in the Mario Bros' adventure. While Captain Goomba serves as the main character of the story, other captains can be recruited for his [[Elite Captain Quartet|group]]; this includes [[Captain Shy Guy (Mario & Luigi series)|Captain Shy Guy]], [[Captain Boo]], and [[Captain Koopa Troopa]]. | '''Captain Goomba''' is the main protagonist of the ''Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser'' story mode from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', and the Mario Bros' first enemy in the original version of the game.

Captain Goomba is first seen at the start of the game running from a Koopa Troopa but is contained in a barrel with Mario's help. As Captain Goomba himself, he appears only once in the main game, running along a path south of Hoohoo Mountain towards Beanbean Castle Town while being seen by the Mario Bros. as they made their way to [[Beanbean Castle]] for the first time. This scripted event unlocks ''Minion Quest''. According to ''Minion Quest'' itself, this scene occurred around the sixth level of the game where Captain Goomba was still searching for Bowser and not trying to save the Koopalings at that point. | Captain Goomba is first seen at the start of the game running from a Koopa Troopa but is contained in a barrel with Mario's help.

After the Mario Bros. defeat him and another [[Goomba]] in the first battle of the game, he starts out in a barrel, swearing with his Goomba | After the Mario Bros. defeat him and another [[Goomba]] in the first battle of the game, he starts out in a barrel, swearing with his Goomba comrade that they will have a bigger role. However, after [[Fawful]]'s attack on the Koopa Cruiser, he was separated from his fellow minions and grew worried. He eventually heard a crash and Bowser being flung through the sky upon emerging from a cave on [[Hoohoo Mountain]] (presumably, this occurred after [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]]'s fight against [[Tolstar]] due to the timing). He eventually ends up inadvertently picking a fight with a [[Beanie]]. After reuniting with his allies (leading to an "awkward hug" by pouncing on one of them), he is then promoted to captain of the unit (although it is heavily implied that they simply stuck him in the position because the others were unwilling to take up the mantle), which he accepts, although he humorously ends up not understanding the position or the flag. He then leads them to his first battle and recruiting more soldiers (and being told he had an aura) before charging off to save Bowser. However, he ends up running into a wall. Over the course of the adventure, however, he starts to prove himself a truly great and effective leader, with his fellow comrade Captain Shy Guy remarking at one point that he reminds him of Bowser, and his soldiers ultimately gain a lot of respect for the Goomba and look up to him. Even the Koopalings eventually gain respect for Captain Goomba in the level "[[Goomba's Worth]]" where he proves to have loyalty towards Bowser exceeding even their own. Only Roy and Wendy lack respect for him as they were only working for him to recover Bowser. Eventually, after beating Fawful for seemingly the final time, in the level "[[Showdown Time!!]]", Captain Goomba finally finds Bowser (not knowing it was actually [[Bowletta]]) and expresses delight at finding it. It congratulates him before telling him that Mario and "Green 'Stache" are coming and telling him to "destroy Mario", which surprises Goomba but he is quickly shut down. Regardless, he obeys and orders his minion army to move out and attack Mario. | ||
Shortly before the Mario Bros. would confront Fawful during the main game's penultimate battle, Captain Goomba grows suspicious at "Bowser's" unusually harsh order to destroy Mario, and his suspicions are confirmed by [[Lakitu]] spying on her. After defeating Fawful and his Mecha-Fawfuls, he and the minions follow Bowser, who is attached to Princess Peach's plane, back home. With the minions' journey through the Beanbean Kingdom over, Bowser and his minions rebuild the castle. Once repairs are complete, Bowser calls a meeting with the minions and even the Koopalings and sends for Captain Goomba, whom he decides to make the permanent captain of the minions after hearing of his heroic exploits. However, he starts to recognize him and it is revealed through a flashback that he landed on Bowser's head and inadvertently gave him [[Rookie|amnesia]] in the first place. He tries to apologize but Bowser angrily chases him. Afterwards, the narration states that he was stripped of his title and flag as payback from Bowser for causing his memory loss and returned to his old name, Goomba. However, the minions never forget his bravery and leadership. | Shortly before the Mario Bros. would confront Fawful during the main game's penultimate battle, Captain Goomba grows suspicious at "Bowser's" unusually harsh order to destroy Mario, and his suspicions are confirmed by [[Lakitu]] spying on her.

Just like almost all of the minions, Captain Goomba loathes the Mario Bros, being the first enemy they fought in the original game, but he still maintains a grudging respect towards them, as even he thinks that "[[Bowletta|Bowser's]]" order to destroy Mario was too much, and later on in the Mecha-Fawful factory, he has faith that the duo will defeat Bowletta so he and his squad can reunite with the true Bowser, as he knows from Fawful and Cackletta that the Mario Bros. are going to confront them soon. | Just like almost all of the minions, Captain Goomba loathes the Mario Bros, being the first enemy they fought in the original game, but he still maintains a grudging respect towards them, as even he thinks that "[[Bowletta|Bowser's]]" order to destroy Mario was too much, and later on in the Mecha-Fawful factory, he has faith that the duo will defeat Bowletta so he and his squad can reunite with the true Bowser, as he knows from Fawful and Cackletta that the Mario Bros. are going to confront them soon. | ||
