Relatives

Bubble Bloopers are a type of Blooper that appear in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and its remake. They are found only in the Pump Works in Bowser's body. They are blue, bubble shaped, and stuffed full of water. When Bowser stops drinking water, the Bubble Bloopers shrivel as a result of losing their water, causing them to turn into Dried Bloopers. When Bowser resumes drinking water, the dried Bloopers regain their original form.

In the field, Bubble Bloopers swim around aimlessly like their regular cousins, but can float towards Mario and Luigi if approached.

BattleEdit

Bubble Bloopers cannot be hit by ground-bound weaponry like the Green Shell, the shockwave from the Snack Basket, or the regular Hammer (barring counters) due to their ability to hover, and attack Mario and Luigi by rolling or bouncing their way; both can be countered with the hammer. Bubble Bloopers will float up to one of two levels to signal which attack they will use. If they go to the top of the bottom screen, they will roll at the brother they are targeting after landing; if they go to the top screen, they will bounce onto their target.
