'''Growmebas''' are rare enemies in the [[Wii]] video game ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. They look like dripping orange squares with a single round eye. These floating creatures spawn clones of themselves in order to attack [[Mario]] and crew. The only way to stop all of the cloning is to defeat the original enemy in the group, which is made slightly easier by the fact that it looks slightly different from the others.

==Trivia==
* The name Growmeba is seemingly based off of the single-celled organism called an amoeba, which like Growmebas, can multiply at an intense rate.
*The name Growmeba also is based on how their numbers '''grow'''.

Growmebas are rare enemies in the Wii video game Super Paper Mario. They are only found in Gloam Valley (along with their Catch Card) and in the Flipside Pit of 100 Trials. They look like dripping orange squares with a single round eye. Growmebas spawn clones of themselves in order to attack Mario and crew. Destroying the original Growmebas causes the clones to disappear as well. The original can be told apart by the concentric circles that appear and disappear in its eye (but not in the clones' eyes). Their name comes from "grow" (as its numbers grows), and "amoeba", a single-celled organism that can multiply at an intense rate.
