Kuribo is the name of a Sockop that appears in the Nintendo DS game Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. It lives in Dimble Wood and tries to attack Mario and Luigi along with three other Sockops. It is seen holding one of the Attack Piece blocks that, once 10 of them are collected, unlocks the attack Snack Basket. It is affiliated with the Sockops who briefly kidnapped Mario. Kuribo is referred to as a "hog" among its companions because it claims the Attack Piece before the others.
