Flying Goomba

Flying Goomba is the Super Mario World equivalent to the more recurring Paragoomba. It appears in Super Smash Flash as an enemy obstacle in the Adventure level, Super Mario World.

Character description
Flying Goomba first appear in Super Mario World and its remakes, Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2, and Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World. They act much like Paragoombas do, jumping around using their wings. Once stomped on, they change back into normal Galoombas, and their wings disappear, again like how Paragoombas turn into regular Goombas when stomped.

In A Super Mario World
Flying Goomba appearing in the first episode in A Super Mario World as a small minor character.

In Super Smash Flash
Flying Goombas are the second most prominent enemies, with Koopa Troopas being the first, to appear in the level Super Mario World. Their attack pattern is the same to all the airborne enemies in SSF, such as Beezleys or Buzzers; it has to make collision with the player in order to damage him. They are very weak enemies as one single attack is enough to get rid of them. A very notable difference between Flying Goombas found in Super Mario World and Flying Goombas found in SSF is that Flying Goombas in SSF will not lose their wings if they are stomped, or more specific, attacked; unlike those in Super Mario World. Also in SSF, Flying Goombas are able to fly freely while in Super Mario World the only thing they did was make small hops.

Trivia
