They have two attacks that were very similar to the ones (especially the [[Guardian Shroob]]s) they used in ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''. For the first, the attacker will flag down a companion, and they will each shoot a laser at a Mario brother. The other attack is a simple laser blast, delivered to only one brother. Before executing this attack, the attacker will always pirouette, unlike in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', in which they would pirouette only before attacking Luigi, and spark before attacking Mario. So instead, the player must see the way it's spinning. It spins clockwise to attack Mario, and counterclockwise to attack Luigi.

After defeating them, [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] receive all ten [[Special Attack (Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story)|Attack Parts]] for [[Magic Window]]. They may also receive the Shroob Boots, which cause jumped-on enemies to suffer a 50% reduction in attack. It is interesting to note that various other Shroobs are visible in the background of the battle, including broken [[Shroid]]s, [[Junior Shrooboid]]s, [[Shrooba Diver]]s, [[Commander Shroob]]s and even [[Elder Princess Shroob]]. Also, if one uses the [[Jump Helmet]] attack and Mario and Luigi walk back in order for the attack to take effect, a single [[RC Shroober]] is seen.

The secret battle with the Shroobs is accompanied by several recaps from ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'' as Mario and Luigi explain their history to Starlow. After hearing that it was Luigi who ultimately trumped the Shroobs, Starlow sarcastically remarks that he did so by "ferociously crying," referencing the baby tears that were ultimately the aliens' downfall.

Mario & Luigi battling Shroobs in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story.

In the lobby of Bowser's Castle, as a hidden Easter Egg, just before Bowser fights Midbus, a Shroob can be seen in the seat on the lower right-hand corner. If Bowser tries to speak to it, it stares blankly and says "...".

Much later in the game, a group of three Shroobs appears as an optional boss in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. They are found in the cold room in Bowser's Castle which needs to have the password of it. The password of the cold room is □, □, ○, △, △, △.

They have two attacks that were very similar to the ones (especially the Guardian Shroobs) they used in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. For the first, the attacker will flag down a companion, and they will each shoot a laser at a Mario brother. The other attack is a simple laser blast, delivered to only one brother. Before executing this attack, the attacker will always pirouette, unlike in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, in which they would pirouette only before attacking Luigi, and spark before attacking Mario. So instead, the player must see the way it's spinning. It spins clockwise to attack Mario, and anticlockwise to attack Luigi.

After defeating them, Mario and Luigi receive all ten Attack Parts for Magic Window. They may also receive the Shroob Boots, which cause jumped-on enemies to suffer a 50% reduction in attack. It is interesting to note that various other Shroobs are visible in the background of the battle, including broken Shroids, Junior Shrooboids, Shrooba Divers, Commander Shroobs and even Elder Princess Shroob. Also, if one uses the Jump Helmet attack and Mario and Luigi walk back in order for the attack to take effect, a single RC Shroober is seen.

The secret battle with the Shroobs is accompanied by several recaps from Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time as Mario and Luigi explain their history to Starlow. After hearing that it was Luigi who ultimately trumped the Shroobs, Starlow sarcastically remarks that he did so by "ferociously crying", referencing the baby tears that were ultimately the aliens' downfall.
