Aqua Goombas[1] are enemies in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins. They are Goombas wearing diving helmets. In the Turtle Zone's final stage, several Goombas are found in the belly of the giant whale. Despite their name and appearance, they generally appear free from the water and behave largely like regular Goombas, with the only difference being that they are not flattened when jumped on.

Naming

Unlike most mainline Super Mario titles, Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins did not receive officially localized enemy indexes at the time of its release on the Game Boy and not all enemies are listed in its instruction booklets. Consequentially, most available non-Japanese names come from localizations of the Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia. The English version of the book refers to it as "Aqua Kuribo,"[3] a romanization of its Japanese name and the basis for the name of its article on Super Mario Wiki from 2015 to 2022.
