Drombas are the Dream World versions of Grombas that appear in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team. They are purple in color with yellow eyes that lack pupils, differently from their Pi'illo Island counterparts. In battle, Drombas appear in clusters of ten to fifteen, and attack by forming a column with an extended row, making an "L" or "T" shape, and then rolling towards Mario, who can move to position his jump. If Mario jumps while lined up with the long row, he bounces across several Drombas. If there are not many remaining Drombas, they will instead roll towards Mario one by one, which is dodged by jumping over or on them.
