Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time confirms that Thwomps are formed when Thwomp Volcano erupts. When they first come out, they're in a perfect cube shape, so it's possible that they're carved and chiseled into the forms we know of. Also, we learn from the manual for Super Mario World that Thwomps are ghosts inhabiting stone bodies. So no, Thwomps are not born from eggs. The nests in Thwomp Ruins likely just belong to birds we don't see in the background. The size discrepancy was either an oversight or just done for aesthetic purposes.

Is the Super Mario World manual really canon though? Like if it's not the Japanese one, that can very well be big bullshit.

[@chippotato5647]

@@victzegopterix2victorindem895 The Japanese version of the manual says essentially the exact same thing as the English version. Roughly translated, the passage on Thwomps reads: "A stone ghost that Bowser sets up in his castles and forts. As Mario approaches, he falls from above with a thud. However, if you stay away from it, you won't be able to move forward..." So this detail is consistent across different languages, including Japanese.

[@Viftie]

But what about Thwimps? I think that Thwimps are juvenile Thwomps, while Shoomps are rather a relative of them. This is supported by the fact Thwimps both look and behave similarly to Thwomps, unlike Shoomps.

[@flophawk]

yea absolutely flabbergasted when that didnt go in the direction of thwimps lol

[@proxyhasnosleep]

Ngl I totally forgot about thwimps

[@WooperK]

There just small twomps

[@flophawk]

@WooperK maybe its like dwarf bulborbs,,,

[@WooperK]

Yea that’s what I was thinking

[@LMS5935]

In Mario and Luigi partners in time it’s confirmed Thwomps can be in romantic relationships… and possibly reproduce. They can also be in a circular shape for their entire lives, such as the case of Mrs.thwomp in the same game. possibly females stay circular?

[@sprousprou]

Seeing as we've only seen one (semi-)spherical thwomp, I'd imagine Mrs. Thwomp is more of an outlier than a good representative of the entire species. I'd argue she may not even be a true Thwomp given her Whomp-like face and arms that don't match any Thwomp I've seen.

[@LMS5935]

@@sprousprou I’d argue every variant of Thwomps and whomps are similar to Koopa, where technically they are different but still fall under the one category of species.

[@cevatkokbudak6414]

​@@LMS5935Whomps are elder thwomps, this is why they are cracked

[@shonkyhonker9347]

Since we only ever really see throw in ruins or castles, maybe thwops are naturally circular but carve themselves or get carved ro suit certain purposes. That could explain subspecies

[@LMS5935]

@@shonkyhonker9347 ooo good thought

[@purplejaedd5067]

Related theory: I've always had thought that the flat-edged thwomps are natural and/or wild, and the sharp ones are chiselled into shape to be more deadly The ones from Mario 64 are probably a different species too

[@Boooo]

my theory is that the grey thwomps are racist to the blue thwomps and they had a war in which all the blue thwomps died, hence why they don't appear anymore

[@NattiNekoMaid]

i mean maybe that thwomp that died was a preaditor for those bird eggs, crushing them to get to the sweet nutrients within

[@feritye767]

completely disregarding that fact that birds aren't always close to their eggs

[@calvinmann5773]

This man here doesn't know how to properly engage with silly fan theories

[@someoneunknown6553]

This begs the question; cloaca? Is mouth a similar multi-function orifice? Do thwomps lay eggs from their mouths? Most likely. In fact, thwomps only having two types of orifice (eyes and mouth) further supports the egg theory as nurturing a *live* child like a mammal would complicate the reproduction process and be a greater risk to the child

[@AidenOcelot]

I remember having this same idea as a kid! My ideas were something like: thwimps turn into whimps which can choose to become thwomps or become whomps

[@belovedwarrior3192]

Your idea sounds more like an evolution idea like Pokemon. Which actually kind of makes sense for the Thwomp species. They can choose to either evolve into thwomps or Whomps

[@Jaydenlvlx]

Congrats on 1000 and I’d love to see a thwomp lay an egg

[@SpyFoxB]

I'd work if we saw evedence of thomps being able to move in more directoins, becuese for them to build a nest they'd need sticks give me evedence a thomp can move sideways and downward in a single life time and then I'd be ok with it

[@LetGoMyLegosTyler]

we do in mario maker, but i dont know if that really counts

[@SpyFoxB]

@@LetGoMyLegosTyler no they can only move horizontally or vertically they cannot change which direction their going in unless you’re saying tracks are biologically part of thwomp which opens a whole new can of questionable worms (yes i thought through this before my first comment)

[@LetGoMyLegosTyler]

@@SpyFoxB hmm thats true

Aren't there thwomps capable of moving around in N64 Bowser's Castle?

How about thwimps?

[@RaisinHook]

where is the hole, this normally doesn't matter but Thwomps are covered in spikes

[@proxyhasnosleep]

They have a face on both sides (maybe one of them isn't a mouth)

[@polaknasieci1331]

@@proxyhasnosleep Or it could be a multi-functional hole like that of a starfish

[@kevtheoggamer6672]

I think its the mother thwomps who laid the eggs that died shortly after, as part of their life cycle. And the babies learn to slam the ground quickly after hatching, hoping to flatten an adventurer so they can feed. They would go without food for days, thwomping away. Some would die of starvation, the others after they laid their eggs. Ancient thwomps (the really big ones) would be very rare in this case. Thats my theory on their life cycle.

[@funlandbuilder]

YOUR SIR I HAVE BREAKING EVIDENCE : THWIMPS (ok somebody already said this)

[@theopoldthegamer4284]

Don't forget about Thwimps

[@joaozindaartist]

I think the thwomps come from volcano and theyre their form from mario 64 them bowser and his cree form them into the diferent kinds of thwomps

[@LavaCreeperPeople]

ok

[@garfenbopperproductions]

Interesting!

[@RuyVuusen]

That is the normal life-cycle of a Thwomp, but only the female Thwomps end up laying eggs and perishing to become feed for the children. The male Thwomps keep growing bigger and more powerful for a very long time. Some old male Thwomps have been known to get mistaken for mountains; a deadly mistake as climbing a mountain that decides to jump on you is, understandably, lethal. It is commonly believed between researchers that all the continents besides Belarus and the Greater Mushroom Continent were actually ancient Thwomps that took residence here. It is believed to be highly likely they have since passed away from old age or boredom. The last seven mass extinction events have been mainly attributed to continental Thwomps changing sleeping posture. That is also how 90% of Australia was ejected into space.
