Template:Species-infobox Spiky Tromps are rocky enemies from Super Paper Mario. They are smaller versions of Spiny Tromps. They slowly roll back and forth, changing directions when they hit a wall, and damage Mario, Princess Peach, Bowser, or Luigi on contact. They are invincible and can only be defeated if Thoreau or Barry is used to make them fall into quicksand.

A Spiky Tromp

Spiky Tromps are first seen in Yold Ruins. At one point in Yold Ruins, Mario must activate a blue switch that opens several trapdoors, from which a large amount of Spiky Tromps fall. Mario then must press a large red switch that causes the Spiky Tromps to fall into a pit, allowing him to safely walk on them and enter a door that was previously out of reach.

Spiky Tromps also appear in the minigame Tilt Island. They fall from the sky onto the island, and Mario loses a life if they hit him. If Mario collects a Flower, he is able to knock them away with a spinning attack, scoring 2000 points.
