Shroonken Islet is a location in Mario & Luigi: Brothership. It is found in the northwestern Color-Full Sea, and is accessible after talking to the older explorer brother on Allsand Island after fishing up a note in the "Letter from a Drifting Island" side quest.
The island has many trampoline-like flowers which propel Mario and Luigi high in the air, allowing them to ascend up a series of flowers and platforms. Initially, a trail of coins marks the way up this ascent. A sign written by an "Anonymous Acrobat" describes a climb up to the summit of the islet and promises a treasure to others who complete the climb.
When visited during the "Letter from a Drifting Island" side quest, the younger explorer sibling from Allsand Island is found on a large platform near the islet's summit. When Mario and Luigi speak with him, he expresses reluctance to leave the islet, but is eventually persuaded to return to his older sibling. Once spoken to again, he jumps off the edge of the platform, then return to Allsand Island with Mario and Luigi.
