A Chuboomba is a large Goomba holding a lollipop found in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, whose name is likely a portmanteau of "chubby" and "Goomba". These enemies are encountered in Cavi Cape. It is fought by Bowser in the overworld and it's also the first normal enemy fought by Bowser. In battle, it attacks by tackling Bowser, which he must counter with a punch. If it wheezes before tackling, it will hesitate before impact so the player must take notice for if it wheezes. If Bowser inhales the lollipop, Chuboomba will run away crying, giving Bowser a victory, but no experience points will be earned. The lollipop will also recover Bowser's HP by 20. They are the weakest enemy encountered by Bowser.

They are also always the target for the demo of Bowser's Attack Parts. Also, unless the player gets an Excellent the Chuboomba will not die, and instead run away.
