Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story -- Part 22: He Finally Says It

Before you deal with Fawful, you'll want to level up the bros each to level 40. You'll notice on the bros' and Bowser's ranks that the line trails off to the end, suggesting something is beyond that. The bros will level up to the final rank, Rainbow Rank. This will also give the bros access to the Excellent!! Badge, which will fully restore HP or SP, or increase experience and coins gained, or multiply the power of the next attack by 4. You must get "Excellent" on ALL attacks or the meter will drain. Get Bowser to level 40 to reach Final Boss Rank, which is very fitting. You also get the Intruder Fangs to equip, which allows you to perform the same action twice.

Heal and save, then go north of the castle's front door through the gardens, to the throne room. Fawful is there, looking for something. He goes into the room to the right of the throne without noticing Bowser. Follow him into the conference room, where he's still looking for something, while singing. "Fawfully-doo! Where are you?! Dark Star, needing you! Dark power, yoo-hoo! WHERE TO FIND YOU..." Bowser approaches and Fawful says, "I have shock at you! You are surviving? Fawful hates you!" Bowser says that the castle couldn't get rid of him. "But I am Lord Fawful! I am ruling the world! I have chortles... You are underestimating Fawful, who has the suction machine for draining the dark power! Fawful only got half the power, but I am thinking it is enough to KO you, the king of stupid! You have gotten in Fawful's way at each of the turns... Just like the red and green mustaches who I hate... Fawful hates your faces..." Bowser is insulted to be lumped in a group with Mario. "But... Now... Fawful says farewell to all your fink-rat faces forever! Bowser! Meet... FURY OF FAWFUL!"

It's time to battle Dark Fawful. You can attack Fawul or his headgear, the Vacuum Helmet. Attack the Vacuum Helmet first. When it takes enough damage, it will come off and hover in the air. Vacuum it and let the bros deal with it. With enough damage, it will explode, preventing it from healing Fawful. Fawful will hover in the air and make four black holes appear. They are portals he'll use to shoot energy balls at Bowser. Some will appear above him, so duck. Punch the ones in front of him. Fawful will also fire his ray gun. Duck when the ray of stars gets too close. When Fawful takes enough damage, a Goomba will appear and tell Bowser to use the Goomba Corps to handle Fawful's next attack. Fawful will surround himself with energy balls and Bowser can punch the Goombas into the energy balls or Fawful. The energy balls will attack Bowser when he stops punching Goombas. Use your best Special Attacks and you'll defeat him in no time.

After the battle, Fawful says, "NOOAARRGH!", then shrinks into a spider-like creature. He says, "I have fury? Fury?", then scurries off. Starlow wonders if Fawful will behave himself. She also has a bad feeling about Fawful taking some of the Dark Star's power. If Dark Bowser finds him, the dark power will be complete. Bowser walks out of the conference room to find Fawful and Dark Bowser, who inhales him. Dark Bowser gets a pair of legs and awakens at last. He punches the throne, revealing a doorway behind it. Starlow is worried about this worst-case scenario and says they'll have to fight Dark Bowser. Bowser only wants Peach and the dark power.

Go through the doorway and pick up some items. Ahead, you'll find Dark Bowser. He says his power is complete and he will take over. He breathes fire at Bowser, who counters with his own fire. Hit (X) repeatedly. Dark Bowser will fly off. He'll breathe fire on Bowser, making him curl up into a spike ball and activate the Chest Station. Send the bros into the Chest Station so Bowser can have an aerial battle with Dark Bowser. Aim so that Bowser hits Dark Bowser from below to make him lose health. Make sure he doesn't do the same to you. He takes a hit if you hit him with more power than he does. If you lose, you'll just drop back down and have to start again. Once you beat him, he climbs higher. Follow him up the tower, using the bros in the Chest Station. At the top is a Save Block. Get the items, then go east or west. There are patches of soft dirt on the walls. Both sides have items. The east side has a Chakroad. Ahead is the final battle. Make any other preparations you want, heal, and save.
