After the Mario Bros. defeat him and another [[Goomba]] in the first battle of the game, he starts out in a barrel, swearing with his Goomba comrade that they will have a bigger role. However, after [[Fawful]]'s attack on the Koopa Cruiser, he was separated from his fellow minions and grew worried. He eventually heard a crash and Bowser being flung through the sky upon emerging from a cave on [[Hoohoo Mountain]] (presumably, this occurred after [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]]'s fight against [[Tolstar]] due to the timing). He eventually ends up inadvertently picking a fight with a [[Beanie]]. After reuniting with his allies (leading to an "awkward hug" by pouncing on one of them), he is then promoted to captain of the unit (although it is heavily implied that they simply stuck him in the position because the others were unwilling to take up the mantle), which he accepts, although he humorously ends up not understanding the position or the flag. He then leads them to his first battle and recruiting more soldiers (and being told he had an aura) before charging off to save Bowser. However, he ends up running into a wall. Over the course of the adventure, however, he starts to prove himself a truly great and effective leader, with his fellow comrade Captain Shy Guy remarking at one point that he reminds him of Bowser, and his soldiers ultimately gain a lot of respect for the Goomba and look up to him. Even the Koopalings eventually gain respect for Captain Goomba in the level "[[Goomba's Worth]]" where he proves to have loyalty towards Bowser exceeding even their own. Only Roy and Wendy lack respect for him as they were only working for him to recover Bowser.

After [[Cackletta]] possesses Bowser to form [[Bowletta]], Captain Goomba grows suspicious at "Bowser's" unusually harsh order to destroy Mario, and his suspicions are confirmed by [[Lakitu]] spying on her. After defeating Fawful and his Mecha-Fawfuls, he and the minions follow Bowser, who is attached to Princess Peach's plane, back home. With the Minions' journey through the Beanbean Kingdom over, Bowser and his minions rebuilt the castle. Once repairs were complete, Bowser called a meeting of the Minions and even the Koopalings and sent for Captain Goomba who he decided to make the permanent captain of the minions after hearing of his heroic exploits. However, he started to recognise him and it is revealed through a flashback that he landed on Bowser's head and inadvertently gave him [[Rookie|amnesia]] in the first place. He tries to apologize but Bowser angrily chases him. Afterwards, the narration states that he was stripped of his title and flag as payback from Bowser for causing his memory loss and resuming his old name, Goomba. However, the minions never forget his bravery and leadership.
