The Gorgonzola Goblins, known as the Western Yōkai Army in the Japanese version, are the main antagonists of Pocky and Rocky.
They are a group of invaders from faraway lands who are responsible for brainwashing the Nopino Goblins to rampage. It is revealed at the end of the game that they, like the Nopino Goblins, are really victims of the Black Mantle's spell too.
History[]
The Gorgonzola Goblins at some point fell victim to a spell cast on them by Black Mantle to make them his loyal servants and army.
Black Mantle later had the Gorgonzola Goblins sail across the sea with him in the floating Gorgonzola Fortress to invade Japan. In preparation for his invasion, Black Mantle cast a spell on the Nopino Goblins inhabiting the lands to agitate them and drive them to rampage. Rocky, who was asleep at the time, was not affected by Black Mantle's spell and went to get Pocky so they could investigate the source of the Nopino Goblins' mischief.
Their investigation eventually led them to Hellkraken, the mighty Gorgonzola Octopus. After defeating it, Pocky and Rocky discovered that the Gorgonzola Goblins were responsible for the Nopino Goblins rampage and that they were invading Japan. After fighting through the Gorgonzola forces, Pocky and Rocky entered the Gorgonzola Fortress and went to face Black Mantle.
After Black Mantle was defeated, the Gorgonzola Goblins were freed from Black Mantle's spell along with the Nopino Goblins and Pocky and Rocky discovered that the Gorgonzola Goblins were really good goblins too who had been forced to act evil by a curse placed on them by Black Mantle. Now that they were free from Black Mantle's influence, the Gorgonzola Goblins boarded the Gorgonzola Fortress and used it to sail home.
