'''Pirate Gooms''', also known as '''Spear Men''', are brown [[Goom]]s that hold spears in ''Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3'' and ''[[Wario Land II]]''. They pace back and forth in most of the levels. Their spears are pointed forward, so [[Wario]] should avoid hitting them from the front.

'''Pirate Gooms'''<ref>''Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3'' English instruction booklet, page 18.</ref> are a type of [[Wanderin' Goom]] that appear in the first two ''[[Wario Land (series)|Wario Land]]'' games. They are darker than their ordinary counterparts, have small hands and originally held a spear. They typically pace back and forth and do not fall off unless pushed or thrown. Their spears are pointed forward, so [[Wario]] must avoid hitting them from the front.
 
In ''[[Wario Land II]]'', three nameless Pirate Gooms are introduced as [[Captain Syrup]]'s sidekicks that steal the treasure of [[Wario Castle]]. They also received a change in appearance: they now wear striped bandannas, they have lighter color, and they now wield tridents. The [[giant spear man]], an abnormally large Pirate Goom, is fought several times and serves as the game's "[[Steal the Syrup's treasure!!#Final Boss Battle: Giant spear man|really final]]" boss. In the [[The Final Battle!!#Boss Battle: Captain Syrup|final battle]] at [[Syrup Castle]], Captain Syrup drops Pirate Gooms in [[Buzzy Beetle]]-like helmets (described as "beetles"<ref>''Nintendo Power'' Volume 106, page 71. "''Captain Syrup hovers overhead in a weird flying contraption while she drops burning beetles on Wario. At the same time, columns of fire shoot up from the floor. Use the beetles to hit Syrup, then, when they become explosive, throw them into the fire.''"</ref>).
 
A Pirate Goom makes a cameo in ''[[Picross NP]]'' Vol. 7. Multiple Pirate Gooms make cameos in ''[[WarioWare: Smooth Moves]]'' as part of the [[Wario Land (WarioWare: Smooth Moves)|Wario Land]] [[microgame]]. The player needed to grab one and hurl it at an enemy by using the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]].
 
Pirate Gooms started a trend of basic enemies in the ''Wario Land'' series having a spear or spear-like weapon, with one example including the [[Spearhead (enemy)|Spearhead]] in ''[[Wario Land 3]]''

You need to be careful with the spear.'')


Pirate Gooms are likely a distant relative of the [[Goomba]]. In fact, because of their apparent lack of a body, they highly resemble the ''[[Super Mario World]]'' [[Goomba (Super Mario World)|Goomba variety]].

Pirate Gooms featured a minor change in appearance in ''Wario Land II''. In that game, they started wearing striped bandannas and toting tridents rather than spears. Also, the [[Giant Spear Man]], a big Pirate Goom, is seen fought several times in ''Wario Land II'' and serves as the game's "really final" boss. The Giant Spear Man's name implies that Pirate Gooms are alternatively known as Spear Men. However, they have not been specifically referred to as such.

''A Wanderin' Goom with a spear (p. 71). It walks around with a spear. If it jabs you, you will take damage, so you should stomp on it to stun it or hit it with your body when its back is turned.''


Pirate Goom do not appear in any other ''Wario Land'' game, although relatives of Pirate Gooms do; in ''[[Wario Land 3]]'', the [[Spearhead]] and the [[Para-Goom]]. Similar-looking enemies also appear in ''[[Wario Land 4]]''. In the game ''[[Wario Land: Shake It!]]'', similar looking enemies known as [[Bandinero]]s appear, but they are lead by the [[Shake King]] instead of [[Captain Syrup]].
