Para-Goombas (or Para-Goombahs) are Flying Goombas with thorns on their heads that protect them from jump attacks. They appear in Mario Clash. To defeat them, Mario must hit them with a Turtle Shell at their sides from the background or foreground to stun them, then hit them again or kick them. A Para-Goomba appears in the Mario Clash microgame in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! and WarioWare Gold.
