| Tattle | That's a Smorg. Lots of Smorgs gathered to create this huge monster. It attacks with weird tentacles. Defeating the tentacles will drop the body's defense to 0, making it easier to attack. The tentacles will regenerate, but use that time to deal a ton of damage, OK? It may also take other forms with higher Attack powers, I don't really know. Let's just hurry and beat this thing so we can save those trapped passengers! |

Smorg is the sixth major boss of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.
This boss does not hold a Crystal Star, but it attacks the Excess Express during the trek to Poshley Heights. This boss is made up of smaller Smorgs. They are first seen at the Riverside Station, where they lift the drawbridge to stop the train from going far (it is unknown if it is working for the Shadow Sirens to stop Mario and his teammates from reaching the Garnet Star). Later on, they stow away on the train and kidnap the passengers. Mario and his teammates fight the Smorgs on the rooftop of the train to rescue the passengers. When they are defeated, they will blow away in the wind and release the passengers. It is possible that they were killed, thus causing them to blow away. The appearance of the smaller Smorgs somewhat resembles that of Fuzzies. They have yet to appear in another Mario title.
[edit] Trivia
- The name "Smorg" is probably derived from "smörgåsbord," a very large Swedish buffet sometimes called in English as "Smorgosboard", due to "ö" and "å" not being in the English alphabet, and "bord" means "board" in Swedish) (compare to the immense amount of Smorgs).
- It may also come from the term "Smog", based on their dark, cloudy appearance.
- Rearranging two letters in "smorgasbord" can create a new phrase, "Smorgs aboard," referring to their presence on the train. This phrase is even used in the official guide book.
- The term "Miasma" refers to a poisonous cloud and/or dangerous atmosphere, likely referencing the appearance and hostile nature of the Smorgs.
