Mario just had an unexpected battle with Bowser in the Glitz Pit and his partner is freaked out that Bowser is here. Bowser leaves after his defeat, so continue climbing the ranks of the Glitz Pit.
17. Craw-Daddy is your next opponent, a Dark Craw. He has 20 HP and 6 attack. He carries a spear, which makes getting the condition of not using your hammer very unfortunate, which happened to me. Either reset the game or use Koops and Earth Tremor. You'll get 14 coins and rise to rank 4.
After the battle, X sends an email, telling Mario to go to the telephone booth on the pavilion. Rawk Hawks is outside the locker room. He says to stop stealing the spotlight, or Mario will get hurt. Perhaps he sent the hate mail. Go outside to the phone booth and you'll find the Storage Key. X sends a follow-up email, telling you to go to the storage room, which is to the left of Grubba's office. Unlock it and you'll find Ms. Mowz. Mario's partner asks if she made the noises the guards heard, but she insists that she's silent. She tells them someone else is here and that the arena has its secrets. Mario should be careful, or he'll end up like the souls upstairs. She found what she wanted, so she kisses Mario and leaves. X sends another email saying to find the staircase switch so they can reach the attic. Have Flurrie blow away the crates to reveal blocks. Break the ones on the right to find the Charge P badge. Break the ones on the left to reveal a switch. Hit it to make the stairs appear. Upstairs is a locked door, as well as a Shine Sprite. Hover from the middle crates to go left. Use the Super Hammer on the large block to reveal the HP Plus P badge on a crate (hover to reach it) and a hole in the floor.
Drop down into the crawlspace. You'll hear voices through a hole. Listen and you'll hear Mr. Grubba and Jolene talking. Mr. Grubba asks Jolene if anyone was found in the storage room. She says the storage room is secure and that precautions have been taken. In her opinion, it was likely a cat. Grubba says they don't keep anything important in there. He asks about King K. She doesn't know where he is, so they delete his spot on the roster, removing any official connections to him, KP Pete. They take the same steps with all fighters that go missing, which has been happening a lot lately. King K is the fifth one this year. Grubba heard that security thinks the pit is cursed. He tells Jolene to tell the others that King K went home for a while, because nasty rumors are bad for business. He asks Jolene why she disappears sometimes, but she says it's none of his business. He asks if she's heard of the Crystal Star. She's startled by the question, but denies hearing of it and leaves. Grubba mentions to himself that the Great Gonzales is the only draw he has left since fighters keep disappearing. Mario's party member speaks and Grubba hears them. Answer with a meow, a squeak, or a belch to make him think it's only a critter running around. If you choose to belch, he'll think it's a burping beetle. Grubba leaves the office. Walk to the left to find a vent. Flip sideways to drop back down into the storage room. Time to continue battling for the title.
18. Hamma, Bamma, and Flare are up next. They are trio of a Hammer Bro, Boomerang Bro, and a Fire Bro. The Hammer Bro has 7 HP, 4 attack, and 1 defense. The Boomerang Bro has 7 HP, 2 attack, and 1 defense. The boomerang it throws will hit Mario and his party member twice, so guard twice. The Fire Bro has 7 HP, 3 attack, and 1 defense. Its fireballs can burn to slowly reduce HP, like poison. When their HP gets low, all of them will attack repeatedly in a barrage. My condition was to not use the hammer. You'll get 14 coins and rise to rank 3.
After the battle, you'll get an email saying that this is your last warning to stop snooping around about the Crystal Stars. Otherwise, you'll suffer the same fat as the missing ones. After you reserve your next match, Jolene will bring in some cake from an admirer. Leave it alone.
19. Chomp Country is your next opponent. The team consists of two Red Chomps. They have 6 HP, 5 attack, and 3 defense. To beat them, use special moves, items, or Gulp. My condition was to let them hit me five times. You'll get 15 coins and rise to rank 2.
After the battle, the Shady Koopa will be on the floor. He says his body went numb after eating the cake, meaning it was poisoned. Now that you have enough Shine Sprites, take the opportunity to return to Rogueport and upgrade your Yoshi.
20. Your last opponent in the major leagues is the Koopinator, a Dark Koopatrol. He has 25 HP, 5 attack, and 2 defense. He can also charge up his next attack. My condition was to not use FP. It has a spike, so don't jump on it. You'll get 15 coins and your rank will rise to 1. The next battle is for the championship.
Before you can reserve the championship match, X emails you, saying to remove the Gonzales posters in the lobby. Go to the lobby and you'll see that all of the posters have been replaces with Gonzales posters. Have Flurrie blow them away. The one you want is on the second floor, to the left of the double doors. Behind it is the Storage Key. X emails you to go to the second floor of the storage room. Go back to the storage room and unlock the door. Use the Yoshi to cross the gap between the crates and you'll hear a noise on the other side of a large block. Use the Super Hammer to break it and reveal Bandy Andy and King K lying on the floor, with flies buzzing around them. King K can't talk, but Bandy Andy says not to go near the ring when no one is around. Try to leave and you'll see Jolene behind the door. She closes the door. Leave the room and reserve the title match when you're ready.
Security will take you a different route to get to the ring, and takes you to an empty minor league locker room to wait. Grubba's onstage with Rawk Hawk, saying that he's excited for the match and that Gonzales made it through the ranks faster than Rawk Hawk. Inside the locker room, Mario discovers he's been locked in. If he doesn't make it to the ring in time, he'll forfeit the match. Go to the right wall and blow away the Peach poster. This reveals a hidden room with a TV. Go through the locker to reach the other major league locker room. It's also empty and locked. Go to the bathroom and stand on the toilet. The toilet will flush Mario through the plumbing to the other major league locker room, which is unlocked. Leave and save the game, then head for the arena.
In the arena, the crowd cheers for Gonzales. Rawk Hawk says Mario should've stayed locked up. He ordered security to lock Mario in there and sent the poisoned cake, but knows nothing about the Crystal Stars.
21. Rawk Hawk is the champion and final opponent. He has 40 HP, 3 attack, and 1 defense. He's good at aerial moves and doesn't fight fair. He can do a double flip that will hit both Mario and his party member, a slide kick that hits whoever is in front, and, after a while, will grab onto the rafters and shake them to make stage debris hit Mario and his party member repeatedly or heal himself. When he's hanging from the rafters, jump attacks can't reach him. Body Slam or throwing something will knock him off the rafters. He can also hang on the wall and dive. My condition was to use at least one special move. Power Bounce is a good move to use, as well as Yoshi's Ground Pound, if you upgraded him. He'll give about 12 SP on defeat, saying he lost to losers.
Grubba says he witnessed a miracle in this legendary bout. Gonzales is now the champion and gets the Champion's Belt. Jolene takes him to the champion's room, where there's a bed that restores Star Power.
