(Rewrite, feels like a lot of the Mario RPG articles have this constant "trying to integrate the article into some unknown story" thing going on, what with the constant abuse of past tense and just being obtusely written)

In battle, Shrooba Divers employed a variety of attacks and techniques to defeat their opponents. First, a Shrooba Diver digs in the sand and pull out various objects to harm the Mario brothers with. A Shrooba Diver may pull out a [[Spiny Egg]] and toss it at the Mario brother. This attack can be [[Jump|jumped]] over. The hand it throws it with determines which brother will get hit. Occasionally, the green Shroob would pull out a [[????|Sand Cheep]] from [[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]] that bounces, meaning the fish would flop right over the Mario brother's head, which can fake out the Mario brother. Secondly, a Shrooba Diver could tunnel under the sand (indicating which brother it is going to attack beforehand), leap out, then dive into a Mario brother. This attack could be countered with a [[Hammer]]. Lastly, a Shrooba Diver would try to swim into a brother. This can be countered with a jump attack.
