'''Thorbs''' are spiky pumpkin-like [[List of enemies|enemies]] that appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', being an introductory enemy to using hammers. They appear commonly in [[Mushrise Park]]. In battle, Thorbs compress themselves down and spiral into [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] in a clockwise or counter-clockwise pattern once, who must [[jump]] over it when it gets near them in order to avoid taking damage. They also approach a Bro., and run at them with their spikes pointed at them, much like [[Capnap]]s. The targeted Bro. must [[hammer]] the Thorb when it gets within range to counter-attack and avoid taking damage. The name Thorb comes from their thorny head and their orb-shaped body.

 

Two Thorbs are seen harassing a [[Toad (species)|Toad]], which Mario and Luigi must battle. This battle serves as a tutorial for hammer attacks.
