A Goomba is a mushroom-shaped enemy that appears in a small number of games in the Yoshi (series). They used to be at peace with Yoshi's Island and in the Mushroom Kingdom however they later betrayed them. It's a very common enemy in the Mario series however.

In Yoshi, they appear as a minor enemy in both versions of the game.
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island[]
In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, they only appear in the level Go! Go! Mario!!. When they're merely jumped on by Yoshi, they are flattened, but still alive and angrier. To defeat flattened Goombas, throw an egg at them. They can be defeated by Yoshi's tongue, eggs being tossed, or being Ground Pounded on.
