Krubbishes are pink, robotic trash can-like enemies that appear in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team. They have tread-wheels, and a lid for a head with yellow eyes on top of it. They are found exclusively in Bedsmith's version of Dreamy Wakeport and often appear alongside Cocoknights R. In the field, Krubbishes roll aimlessly if not approached, but will release a dust cloud upon sensing Mario and Dreamy Luigi. Sometimes, instead of doing the action, Krubbishes are simply seen turning.
In battle, they appear in smaller groups like with a few other Dream World enemies. One of the attacks involves a Krubbish releasing a poisonous cloud of dust shaped like an arm with a fist at Mario, which may shrink him. The direction the Krubbish is facing when it releases the dust indicates which direction the dust comes from. To avoid its attack, Mario must first move away from the dust cloud and then jump over it as it approaches him.
While fighting alongside at least four Cocoknights R, a Krubbish will inhale a group of them, and then spit them out at Mario one by one. Mario must hammer the Cocoknights R that were spat out, ones that are spat out normally will fall right over Mario, and Cocoknights R that were spinning as they were spat out will fall in front of him and bounce towards him. This attack may cause the dizzy status.
Similar to Lob-ombs and Lob-ombs R, if a Krubbish is defeated, it starts to get electrocuted. At the end of the turn, it explodes, damaging only at least a few nearby Cocoknights R. If any Cocoknights R are in the Krubbish after it explodes, they will get launched out, and upon touching the ground, they will instantly get defeated.

Notes[edit]
- Doing the No Hitter challenge associated with Krubbishes requires avoiding all attacks from the accompanying Cocoknights R, despite these attacks not involving the Krubbishes themselves and being possible in the absence of them.
- Krubbishes bear a resemblance to Junker, another pink, robotic trash can-like creature that appears in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story.
