Thwomps are rock creatures and baddies found mostly in the Mushroom Kingdom. They are spike-encrusted living stones, usually shaped rectangularly, that made their first appearance in the game Super Mario Bros. 3. They typically attempt to flatten or squash whoever passes below them using their own weight. Sometimes, they will be moving side-to-side. They can only be defeated by being touched by Mario when he is power-upped with a star, a raccoon or tail swipe, and hammers from Hammer Mario. It is suggested in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time that Thwomps may in fact be born from volcanoes.

Layout
|
When a Thwomp appear on the stage it'll be asleep until it is attacked or picked up and thrown. Afterwards it'll rise into the air if attacked or travel a short distance and be suspended in mid-air if thrown. If a player passes underneath the Thwomp when it's in position, it'll crash down quickly and slam into the ground and any players under it, even the player who threw the Thwomp. The Thwomp will stay in the battle for up to 15 seconds before disappearing.
