Relatives

Flomps (also called floating plates[1] or flipping panels[2] ) are enemies in Super Mario Galaxy 2 and its Nintendo Switch port. They are stone platforms with faces similar to Bomps and green spiked sides.

History[edit ]

Super Mario Galaxy 2[edit ]

Mario on the Whomp Lava Planet in Bowser's Lava Lair
Several Flomps forming the path across the lava planet

Flomps mostly act as ordinary platforms, with some revolving mildly in one spot and others moving from side to side. However, at set intervals, they make a rattling sound, their faces become angry, and then they quickly flip over. If Mario or Luigi is on one of these platforms when they flip, he will be knocked high into the air. They appear during all missions of both Bowser's Lava Lair and Grandmaster Galaxy.

Mario Party: Island Tour[edit ]

Flomps are obstacles in the minigame Flip Out in Mario Party: Island Tour . Flomps act and look like they did in Super Mario Galaxy 2. Flomps are used by the player characters as regular platforms to cross a chasm to the finish line, though characters that stay on a Flomp as it flips are flung three spaces backwards.

Gallery[edit ]

Naming[edit ]

"Flomp" is a portmanteau of "flip" and "Thwomp", alluding to Flomps' behavior and appearance.

Names exclusive to localizations of the Super Mario Bros.
