Dark Bowser's dark power is complete. He's waiting at the top of Peach's Castle. When you're absolutely ready, go north. Torches light up as Bowser walks past them. Dark Bowser stands with Peach at his side. He says the dark power must be freed. He sends dark clouds swirling in the air and the kingdom plunges into darkness. Broque Monsieur and other civilians swirl in bubbles overhead. The wind pushes Bowser back, but he's not impressed. Chippy tells Bowser that he can count on them and that they can work together to stop this. Mario and Luigi jump and Bowser thinks he hears them. Chippy says he's correct. Bowser can't hear well due to the wind. Dark Bowser says the kingdom will vanish along with everyone in it. Bowser's not going to let that happen, as the kingdom is his.
In this battle, you won't always want to use Special Attacks as Bowser. Use them initially, while Dark Bowser and Bowser are the same size. Dark Bowser will toss a large boulder into the air, then break it up with fire. Some of it will rain down on Bowser, so duck. Try to punch the rocks that fall in front of Bowser, which will wind up in Dark Bowser's mouth, causing him to swell and reel. Dark Bowser will also use some of Bowser's Special Attacks. After you do enough damage, Dark Bowser will collapse. Fawful, in his spider form, will heal 1000 HP and make Dark Bowser larger. At this point, punch Dark Bowser in the belly. This will make him spit up Fawful, who runs away. Inhale Fawful, but know that Dark Bowser will also try to inhale him.
When you inhale him, Fawful will change a little. He'll have three legs and two lenses for his glasses. You can attack all of these five points. If you try to use an attack, one or two of the legs will be hidden. Destroy the legs first to make Fawful collapse, then destroy the glasses. The glasses will crack when they take enough damage. One of Fawful's attacks is to chase the bros. On the top screen, a dark rock will appear, which will be color-coded. Have the bro jump to avoid the rock. If it hits, Fawful might eat the bro. The attack will continue until the bros reach the light. Fawful will also stick his hands in the floor in front of the bros and send energy balls at the bros. Use the hammer to get rid of them. The larger energy balls will return to Fawful and get rid of the arm during the attack. When Fawful collapses into the ground, use Special Attacks to attack the Dark Star Core. The Dark Star Core will make an arrow appear that circles over the heads of the bros. It will eventually point at the ground, so jump over it in unison. The Dark Star Core will then fire the arrow at the bros, so hammer it back to do damage. After a while, Fawful will leave and go back to Dark Bowser and the process will repeat.
Once you defeat Fawful, Dark Bowser will start reeling. He'll hold his head. Bowser's ready to end this fight with a KO punch. Repeatedly hit (X). The final punch will make Bowser build up rainbow star power. Dark Bowser explodes in a dark light. He admits defeat. Bowser says no cheap imitation can compare to the real Bowser. Dark Bowser can't believe that he was defeated even with the dark power completed. The Dark Star returns to its original form, rises into the sky, and explodes, removing the darkness, and revealing just how damaged Peach's Castle is. Chippy asks Bowser how Peach is doing. Bowser says he can kidnap her now. Inside Bowser, a voice says, "Why... The failing..." What remains of Fawful appears. He's speaking less clearly than usual. "You...mustaches...with...why...fury...whenever... Fawful...just wanted...some kingdom conquering... Fawful tried... Fawful gave the 110 percents... Fawful worked the overtime... Fawful was the team player... Fawful pu in the hours... Fawful got the hands dirty... But every time... Always... The mustaches...arrive... Always in Fawful's way... Alwaysalwaysalways..." Starlow says to give it up. "I have remorse... Fawful understands... Fawful gives up... Fawful will disappear with no troubles... Here Fawful goes... The disappearing... Forever disappearing... WITH YOU!" Fawful explodes, which releases everyone from Bowser's body.
All the Toads, the bros, and Starlow are spat up. This wakes Peach up and she rushes to them. She calls the bros and Starlow, which is the first time you've heard her name in a long time. Starlow says Fawful's last ditch effort saved everyone. Toadsworth is thankful that Peach is safe. Bowser is not thrilled that the bros just came out of his gut. Starlow says not to think about it too much. Bowser recognizes her as the voice of Chippy. He's enraged that the bros were hanging out in his body and starts breathing fire. Everyone else flees to safety. Peach wishes the bros well, leaving the bros to deal with Bowser... in the credits!
In the credits, the bros defeat Bowser, sending him packing with his minions. Repairs start on both castles. Bowser is confined to bedrest and Peach and the bros have a surprise planned. Birdley flies a present to Bowser's Castle. Private Goomp, Sergeant Guy, and Corporal Paraplonk are in Bowser's room, trying to rejoin as minions. Birdley arrives. Bowser wants the bird out, but Kamek says Birdley has a message from Peach's Castle. Starlow's in the package, here to check on Bowser to see if he'll be attacking Peach's Castle anytime soon. Bowser says he's remodeling his castle, which isn't evil. Starlow likes his current attitude and tells him to enjoy his present. Bowser doesn't want it. He shoos everyone out of his room, letting the three traitors be his minions again. When he's alone, Bowser opens the package, finding a cake. There are Peach, Mario, and Luigi figurines, and Bowser's face drawn in icing. Chakron says that he has watched us and we have done well. He shows us our ranks. He says everyone grew super strong. If you have achieved Rainbow Rank and Final Boss Rank, he will praise you, which is something he rarely does to the unenlightened. We are absolutely amazing. The ranks sparkle.
And with that, we are done with this game. I had a lot of fun playing the third game in my part of the Mario series. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did playing the game. As you may expect, I will be playing Mario and Luigi: Dream Team next. What awaits the bros and Peach on Pi'illo Island? What will appear in Luigi's dreams? Will Fawful make an appearance? We shall see. It will launch in the United States in August, so it will be a while before I get to play it. I want to keep the series going uninterrupted. In the meantime, I will be on hiatus from blogging, but I will still be here. Until then, please enjoy some of my older posts.
