Ramblin' Evil Mushroom

The Ramblin' Evil Mushroom is an enemy that appears in both EarthBound and Mother 3. They also make an appearance as an item in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

In EarthBound
The Ramblin' Evil Mushroom first appears in EarthBound. Before being battled, they look like regular mushrooms. However, if Ness walks by an area with them, they'll attack. They are dangerous because they can cause Ness's party to become Mushroomized, where it plants a mushroom on one party member's head. They're really weak to PSI Fire, PSI Freeze and Brainshock. They're said to paired up with Shrooom!, however that's not the case.

Two other versions of the Ramblin' Evil Mushroom in EarthBound are both referred to as the Struttin' Evil Mushroom. The nearly identical-looking Ramblin' Mushroom also appears in Mother 3.

EarthBound Player's Guide description
"Evil Mushrooms sneak up on unsuspecting travelers and attack them with spores. Spores, which cause confusion, can be removed only at Hospitals."

In Mother 3
Ramblin' Evil Mushrooms return in Mother 3, due to the character limit the fan translation shortened their name to Ramblin' Mushroom. Similar to EarthBound, they appear as a regular mushroom on the overworld until approached. They can attack by scatteing rspores to inflict the Strangeness ailment which works very similarly to Mushroomization.

Tougher versions of this enemy in Mother 3 are the Scamperin' Mushroom and the Naughty Mushroom.
