Shroob mushroom: Difference between revisions

'''Shroob Mushrooms''' are light-purple [[Mushroom]]s with white dots that appear during the events of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. The [[Shroob]]s have the ability to fire purple energy bolts that turn anything they touch into Shroob Mushrooms in a process. [[Toadiko]], [[Toadbert]], [[Kylie Koopa]] and [[Baby Bowser]] are all known to suffer this fate. People who turn into a Shroob Mushroom are said to be '''Shroobified'''<ref>{{ref quote|At last!

Some Shroobs are also known to turn into these purple mushrooms when defeated, like [[Elder Princess Shroob]]. When [[Princess Shroob]] is disguised as [[Princess Peach]], she holds a Shroob Mushroom to her face. Shroob Mushrooms have been rarely able to speak, such as after Elder Princess Shroob gets defeated.
