All Mario's partners in the game can attack. Goombario has four attacks : First, he can jump on enemies. Second, he can give the player informations about one of the characters you are fighting against (like the number of HP it has). This information is kept during the rest of the game for future battles against the same characters. His third attack is to charge for an even more powerful attack next turn. And his fourth attack is again to jump on enemies, but with more power than the first attack and he can do it multiple times. Goombario's tattle ability can also be used to describe locations and friendly characters.

Goombario is a character from Paper Mario. He is a friendly Goomba who helps Mario during his adventure by giving you multiple informations concerning his mission, other characters and places. Mario encounters him when in the in Goomba Village were lives the Goomba family and a Toad running a Toad House. Goombario is Mario's first partner in game.

All Mario's partners in the game can attack. Goombario has four attacks : First, he can jump on enemies. Second, he can give the player informations about one of the characters you are fighting against (like the number of HP it has). This information is kept during the rest of the game for future battles against the same characters. His third attack is to charge for an even more powerful attack next turn. And his fourth attack is again to jump on enemies, but with more power than the first attack and he can do it multiple times. Goombario's tattle ability can also be used to describe locations and friendly characters.

Goombario is brave, headstrong and friendly and Mario is his idol. He dislikes sewers, deserts and Arctic areas, and seems to have a sibling rivalry with Goombaria, his younger sister. He also has a friendly rivalry with the second partner, Kooper, for example saying the Duplighost Kooper's scarf looks more fashionable. His grandfather Goompa taught him everything he knows.

To unlock the two lasts attacks, you must find a Super Block. This block can unlock a new attack for any of your partners.

Possible Etymology
