The '''McGoo''' is found in the [[Underworld]]. They appear in the wake of [[Pit]]'s footsteps, quickly appearing and launching a fireball, then [[Enemy Tactics#Burrowing|seeping back into the ground]]. As such, it's very hard to launch a counterattack, though a watchful Pit can see them form shortly before they congeal enough to let loose the fireball. Pit can crouch under the fireballs to avoid them and they luckily generally appear on hard surfaces only.
'''McGoo''' (マグー Magū), known as '''Spitball Blob''' in ''[[Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters]]'', and '''Magmoo''' in ''[[Kid Icarus: Uprising]]'', is a recurring [[Underworld]] enemy in the [[Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus series]].

It is monster made of magma, animated by the evil power of [[Medusa]]. It's relatively large for a gout of molten rock with a pair of hateful yellow eyes and a spout for ejecting magma at encroaching angels.
It is monster made of magma, animated by the evil power of [[Medusa]]. It's relatively large for a gout of molten rock with a pair of hateful yellow eyes and a spout for ejecting magma at encroaching angels. They are one of the few enemies capable of burrowing, and are able to seep through any solid surfaces with relative ease. This allows McGoos to appear unexpectedly and surprise their foes in a way that most other Underworld monsters wouldn't even dream of.

As burrowing enemies, McGoos appear unexpectedly from beneath the platforms during the Underworld levels of the game. They are capable of spitting out flaming projectiles in one direction, however they cannot move from their spot while doing so. They appear in the wake of [[Pit]]'s footsteps, quickly appearing and launching a fireball, then [[Enemy Tactics#Burrowing|burrowing]] back into the ground. As such, it's very hard to launch a counterattack, though a watchful Pit can see them form shortly before they congeal enough to let loose the fireball. Pit can crouch under the fireballs to avoid them.

It's called the '''Spitball Blob''' here and it's a little bit slower on the draw.

The newly renamed '''Magmoo''' is a monster that usually only appears in hot environments, such as the [[Phoenix Mountain]] in ''[[The Wish Seed]]''. Their attacks have the ability to burn Pit. The yellow arrow that appears above enemies can indicate their hidden position beneath the ground.
====Idol Description====
''Semianimate creatures born from the magma of the Underworld. Their brains put out a continuous source of heat that keeps their magma piping hot. Lacking smarts, they sometimes stumble into water, which never goes well for them.''
