'''Glohm''' is a corruptive substance that appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]''. Its name is a portmanteau of "gloom", "glow", and "{{wp|ohm}}". Extracted from the stale energy<ref>"See those Spite Bulbs? They're what happens to a Sprite Bulb when... it's cut off from Connectar. They run on the stale energy they've managed to hang on to." —Connie, ''Mario & Luigi: Brothership''</ref> of [[Spite Bulb]]s—[[Sprite Bulbs]] who have been cut off from [[Connectar]]—it is manufactured by [[Zokket]] and used on the citizens of [[Concordia]] by the [[Zok Trooper]]s and the [[Extension Corps]], causing anyone infected to want to seek isolation from everyone else and shut their heart to them, with the ultimate goal of reviving [[Reclusa]]. Its effects are first seen on [[Bulbfish Island]]. [[Ampberry|Ampberries]] are an antidote to the Glohm, although in a few cases fighting and defeating an affected enemy can remove the effects of Glohm from it, as seen when defeating [[Glohm Bowser]], [[Glohm Gorumbla]], and two [[Spike]]s.

Various enemies also become infected with Glohm, making them more powerful, while also possessing a darker red tint and glowing eyes.

*Glohmed enemies can create a spiked shield which breaks after being hit with an attack, although the shield is often two layers. If the spikes are on top, the enemy is unsafe to jump on. (ex. [[Glohm Soreboar]], [[Glohm Snaptor]])
