Bomp

Bomps (also called Pushy Walls or Sliding Stones) are a variant of Thwomp introduced in Super Mario 64.
==Profile==
===Behavior===
They emerge/retract from their holes periodically trying to push Mario off his current elevation. They mainly act in a similar manner as if they were obstacles but don't cause any damage. Bomps are indestructible in most of their appearances.
==In ==
===Super Mario 64 / Super Mario 64 DS===
Bomps first appear in Super Mario 64. Encountered first in Whomp's Fortress, these moving roadblocks appear in the same style as the walls that surround them, except they have eyes. Their eyes appear blue in color. Found early in the level, their role is to push Mario off the cliff to the platform below, wasting time. Out of the Bomps found here, the ones at the beginning and end of their row appear thinner than the ones found in the middle of the row. They are also found in other levels, such as Lethal Lava Land. In Super Mario 64 DS, they emerge from their holes at a much quicker pace however this time, they do not have eyes, in this game, they can also be destroyed with the effects of a Super Mushroom.
===Super Mario Galaxy===
Bomps now have a more Thwomp-like shape and face. They retain their behavior from past games (emerging and retracting from walls) however this time, they can crush Mario/Luigi against a wall which can kill him instantly. Bomps themselves are indestructible and cannot be destroyed, These obstacles appear in the Buoy Base Galaxy and later in the Freezeflame Galaxy.
===Super Mario Galaxy 2===
Bomps reprise their role and appearance from the previous game. They appear in the Fluffy Bluff Galaxy and the Super Mario 64 throwback level Throwback Galaxy. In the Fluffy Bluff Galaxy, they act more as assistance to Cloud Mario/Luigi than obstacles. However, in the Throwback Galaxy, they have the same role as in Super Mario 64/Super Mario 64 DS where they are obstacles that attempt to push Mario/Luigi off. Just as before, Bomps cannot be destroyed in this game.
==In Paper Mario: Sticker Star==
Bomps make a reappearance, and this is the first game where they are referred to by their current name. Bomps are found in Chomp Ruins where they slide out of the walls. In this game, they are much quicker and can also be used as platforms. In one section of the level, one is flipped upside down and must be Paperized and flipped the right way up in order to progress. Aditionally, there are several Bomps that slide out of the waterfalls in patterns and Mario must time their movements to avoid being pushed off. To fit the Ruins theme, Bomps are brown in this game. Additionally, Bomps are smaller in this game.
==In Mario Party 10==
Bomps return in Mario Party 10. In this game, they can be seen in the minigame Cliffside Crisis. During the minigame, players are standing on the Bomps which emerge/retract from the walls in the cliff. More Bomps are above the Bomps the players are standing on and the players should watch out for these Bomps. During the minigame, the players must move from Bomp to Bomp as the Bomps they're standing on retract into the walls and move to Bomps that are either sticking out or about to emerge all while avoiding being pushed off by the Bomps behind them that are emerging. As the minigame progresses, the Bomps become more unpredictable making it more challenging to determine which Bomp is safe to stand on. If players slip off the lower Bomps or are pushed off the top ones, they are eliminated. The winner is either the last player standing or any players still remaining when time is up.
