Spiny Tromp

The Spiny Tromp appeared in 2000 video game called Paper Mario. A Spiny Tromp is a large, spiked orb with a surly face; it resembles a circular Thwomp. Its name is likely derived from "trample", referring to their attacks, and "Thwomp". Though they are not named in their first appearance, Paper Mario, they are later named in Super Paper Mario. "Tromp" itself is also a slang word that can mean either "trample" or "ultimately destroy".
