Enemy Manipulation is a broad term used to refer to any exploitation of an enemy's behavior to lead to an unexpected result.

Goombas

Chase Extension

If a Goomba hits a wall, steep slope, or another Goomba when chasing Mario, the chase will be extended. This can allow the goomba to reach positions that would normally be too far from its home. This is used in Jolly Roger Bay to press the Blue Coin Block without using the A button by bouncing off the extended Goomba [1]

Goomba Escort

Goombas normally cannot wak outside of a certain distance around their home, as they will then start turning back toward it. However, by having two goombas constantly collide with one another, it is possible for their target angle to keep updating without allowing them to turn fully, making them walk further and further away from their homes[2][3]

In December 2022, this trick was used to reach the mainland in Tiny Huge Island with using a Star Dance Clip, making most stars of this level much faster[4]
