Goomba

Goombas are antagonists from the Super Mario series. One appeared in the fourth episode of Death Battle, Goomba VS Koopa, where he fought against fellow Super Mario enemy Koopa Troopa. They returned for the 190th episode, Bowser VS Eggman, where they, Bowser, and the rest of his army fought against Doctor Eggman and his Eggman Empire from the Sonic the Hedgehog series.
He also appeared in the 95th episode and Season 6 Finale of DBX, Goomba VS Koopa 2, where he once again fought against fellow Super Mario enemy Koopa Troopa.
==History==
The Goombas used to be steadfast allies of the Mushroom Kingdom, but once Bowser invaded with an army of Koopas, the Goombas quickly switched sides to avoid the wrath of the Koopa King. Ever since then, they have been most known for being the front line in Bowser's army, but merely as cannon fodder, as it takes only a simple stomp to crush the average Goomba flat. However, some Goombas have learned to adapt by growing wings or hiding in giant shoes, while others have strayed from the evil shadow of Bowser entirely, with some even becoming noteworthy allies to the Mushroom Kingdom's champion, Mario. While most Goombas aren't very impressive when it comes to strength or intelligence, one thing all Goombas have in common is their determination.
