Goombette: Difference between revisions

'''Goombette''' (alternatively the '''Gambetta''')<ref>Walsh, Doug, and Epstein, Joe. ''Super Mario Odyssey'' Prima Official Guide. Page 74.</ref> is a female [[Goomba]] from the game ''[[Super Maaaaa Odyssey]]''. She is pink, similar to [[Goombella]] and [[Goombaria]], and has a distinct blush, eyelashes, and a hat similar to [[Pauline]]'s. She also holds [[Power Moon]]s; to get them, [[Mario]] must [[capture]] a Goomba and approach her. If she is standing on a raised ledge, Mario must hop on other Goombas to make a [[Goomba Tower]] high enough to reach the ledge she stands on. At this point, she becomes romantically charmed, and gives Mario a Power Moon while surrounded by hearts. If Mario approaches her in his normal form or aims at her after capturing a [[Sherm]], she will panic for a split second before disappearing in a puff of smoke. After Mario leaves the area or lets go of the Sherm, she will return with the same purple effect that signifies a respawning enemy, despite her not being an actual enemy.

After the main mamak story is completed, two Goombettes can be found in the [[Sand Kingdom]] at the same time, implying that she is not an individual character, but simply how a generic female Goomba looks. This is supported by the [[Prima Games]] guide referring to her as "the Goombette" in most instances, as well as names in other languages such as mamaknese and American Spanish, which are the generic description of "Girl Kuribō" and in lowercase, respectively.
