Queen Bean

QUEEN BEAN

After much toil and trouble, Mario and Luigi make their way to the castle at the center of the Beanbean Kingdom to find most of the royal staff imprisoned by Cackletta and Fawful, the queen herself turned into a raging monster thanks to a worm in her stomach.

This is Queen Bean, the ruler of the Beanbean Kingdom. Though a very strong boss at first, after Mario and Luigi feed her cola to cough up the worm, she becomes a friendly ally to the brothers, giving them guidance whenever they return to the castle, and often sending her son Peasley out to give them useful hints or items.

As a fighter, Queen Bean will have a very high strength and weight stat, if a little on the slow side to compensate. Her moveset will pull from her own boss fight, elements of the Beanbean Kingdom directly related to her, and her faithful servant Lady Lima.

Likelihood rating: Never gonna happen.

Second Chance: Queen Bean

QUEEN BEAN

I don't really know why this character is here, outside of "I had a feeling." Queen Bean is the mother of Prince Peasley and ruler of the Beanbean Kingdom in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. Like her son, she is turned monstrous by Cackletta and Fawful, and thus acts as a boss battle, before being cured and acting as an ally through the rest of the game. There's not much to work with, as her battle features her pounding the ground to cause a shockwave and her spitting out a bean that will become a Beanie if it hits a player. Outside of that, she tends to hop up and down to cause earthquakes, and she is cured specifically by Chuckola cola. Then there's the Beanstar itself, and . . . you know what, what do I know?

I guess my answer is . . . 

YES

Here is the moveset I came up with:

Standard B: Bean

She will belch up a bean that will bounce across the stage. If it strikes an opponent, it will become a Beanie and roam the stage for a short time.

Side B: Ground Pound

She will raise her fists into the air and slam them down on the ground, creating a slight shockwave effect.

Up B: Bounce

She will bounce up and down, causing earthquakes if over ground.

Down B: Chuckola Cola

She will drink some Chuckola Cola, start to laugh, and restore a portion of her health.

Final Smash: Beanstar

The Beanstar will rise, she will speak to it, it will become angry at her "impure voice," and then slam into the stage, sending everyone flying.

Entrance: She will land hard, punching the ground.

Taunts: Up, she will raise into the air and come back down hard. Side, she will give off a full belly laugh. Down, she will hold up her muscular arms and one of them will go flat.

Kirby Hat: Her crown and purple hair.

Kart: A kart shaped like the Beanstar.

Special Move: She will be able to rise into the air momentarily and slam back down, causing those around her to spin out.

Spirit Battle: On Beanbean Kingdom, with Prince Peasley.

Victory Screen: She will toss out one of her opponents, wrapped up like a present.

Losing Screen: She will pass out on the ground, looking sick.

Color Swaps: Her normal look, her muscular look, her muscular look with one arm flat, her muscular look with both arms flat, her royal outfit from the final scene with all previously listed variations.

Thanks for reading! Next up, a character that won't necessarily be an echo, but there is at least no reason why they and Lord Crump couldn't have co-existed on the same roster.

Beanbean Kingdom

The very first Mario & Luigi game took place almost entirely within the neighboring Beanbean Kingdom, having arrived their aboard Bowser’s airship, as he was invested in Peach’s welfare as well. The kingdom had many iconic locales, though none particularly standing out too much from the others.

The stage will be a touring stage, with Bowser’s airship as the main platform as it circles the kingdom and comes to rest in various locations through the game, such as Hoohoo Mountain, Beanbean Castle, the Chuckola Cola Factory, the airstrip, and Woohoo Hooniversity.

Potential theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nygo0LLcI3o

Prince Peasley

Recovering from their crash-landing, Mario and Luigi will work their way through the Beanbean Kingdom eventually working their way to the top of Hoohoo Mountain, where they find an egg that hatches into a fearsome dragon. The brothers fight bravely and defeat it, transforming it back into the crowned prince of the Beanbean Kingdom.

This is Prince Peasley, who was transformed into the dragon by Cackletta in order to get him out of the way. After his release, he becomes a valuable ally to the Mario brothers, helping them out throughout their adventure with his lance and his faithful flying pillow.

As a fighter, he will definitely be a nimble swordfighter who will require a good amount of technical skill to master. His moveset will pull from his actions across the game, and he will make good use of his rapier and pillow.

Likelihood rating: Piranha Plant clause

Popple

Princess Peach in dire trouble, the Mario brothers and Bowser join forces to travel to the Beanbean Kingdom and find a cure. On the way though, up to even more of their tricks, Cackletta and Fawful attack Bowser’s cruiser, causing it to crash. Mario and Luigi come to with Bowser nowhere to be seen. Meanwhile, a greedy thief encounters a giant confused turtle with a bad case of amnesia.

This is Popple, a cowardly crook who takes Bowser under his wing as his personal muscle, making regular appearances throughout the game as their rival character, just like Croco and Jr. Troopa before him, and will crop up again in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team. He doesn’t do too much fighting himself, preferring to let others do the fighting, then running once they are defeated.

As a fighter, Popple will likewise not have too much going for him offensively, but he will have great speed and decent defense to make up for it. Though he lets others do his fighting, he does have a few scattered moves that will make up his moveset.

Likelihood rating: Probably not

Fawful

Cackletta is not alone in her scheming, as she is helped along by a diminutive mad scientist with big teeth, swirling glasses over his eyes, a strange way of talking, and insane devotion to his mistress.

This is Fawful, Cackletta’s right hand man, who would survive the end of the game and go on to be a major villain for the next two sequels, his master plan coming to fruition in Bowser’s Inside Story. While Cackletta was focused on the magic, Fawful supplied her with technology, their combined talents proving a formidable force against our heroic brothers.

As a fighter, Fawful will be fast and tricky, using all manner of technology to get an edge on his opponents. For his moves, he will pull from all of his battles across both Superstar Saga and Bowser’s Inside Story.

Likelihood rating: Could happen

Cackletta

The game begins as Princess Peach welcomes a goodwill ambassador from the neighboring Beanbean Kingdom. The ambassador presents Peach with a gift only for it to turn out to be a trap. The ambassador steals the princess’s voice and flees, leaving the princess with a literally explosive vocabulary.

In reality, the ambassador was actually a witch named Cackletta, who had usurped the throne of the Beanbean Kingdom by poisoning the queen and prince and turning them into monster, and now wished to do the same to the Mushroom Kingdom. Cackletta would act as the main villain of the game, menacing our heroes and battling them time and time again.

As a villain fighter, she will have a lot of power certainly, though she will be a bit quicker and faster than many. She will rely heavily on her usage of black magic, and her moveset will pull largely from her many boss fights.

Likelihood rating: Could happen

Mario & Luigi

Paper Mario proved a huge success, but AlphaDream Studios had other ideas for directions to go with an RPG for the new Game Boy Advance system. They put together a new game called Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, built on the concept of the player controlling Mario and Luigi as a single unit.

With this new concept, the player controlled Mario and Luigi together, Mario programmed to two buttons on the pad and Luigi to two others. Together, they could switch back and forth as the leader and could perform a number of combo moves both in and out of battle.

This character is based on that concept. Mario and Luigi would be stylized to look like the art style of the Mario & Luigi series, differentiating them from the normal Mario and Luigi designs. Their moves would pull from all of their combo moves across the entire series, with two different versions based on which character is in the lead.

Likelihood rating: Probably not

Character Sheet: Popple

 POPPLE

Today, we begin our newcomers. I did say going into this that the RPGs would likely be the last shot for many of the frequent enemies you wouldn't expect to see on a Smash roster, but what I didn't expect was that the RPGs would actually come through for a lot of them. At least one I thought was never going to happen in a million, billion years. But here we are. The first ten are all Mario regulars who finally took the step up to playable. The other sixteen are originals to the Mario & Luigi games (or Origami King) specifically.

24. Shroob

25. Popple

26. Durmite/Wisdurm

Today, let's cover Popple, the recurring thief from Superstar Saga and Dream Team. Popple wasn't initially going to make it into the roster, as most of his fights involve him letting someone else do the fighting for him and then running away as soon as they are defeated. However, on a second go-over, he had just enough to convince me otherwise.

Among the various moves he uses when he's not running away are sneakily stealing the weapons of his opponents and using them against them, charging at an opponent and forcefully stealing a healing item from them, and pulling out a bag and tossing items from it. He can also use "Bros. Attacks" with his partners, the most famous of which is Rookie, an amnesiac Bowser, who will grab him and throw him into the air for a piledrive maneuver.

Here's the moveset I came up with:

Standard B: Steal

This move is pretty simple. He will basically reach out and steal any item a character might be holding so that he might use it himself. Probably would have a timing element so as not to be broken, I imagine.

Side B: Charge

He will hop, pump his legs really fast, and charge headfirst into an opponent. Rather than take a healing item though, he will simply steal health, recovering as much damage as he dealt with the attack.

Up B: Bros. Attack

Rookie (with the distinctive headband so you don't confuse him for regular Bowser) will appear and throw Popple into the air, then jump up and chuck him toward the ground in the direction indicated by the player.

Down B: Loot Toss

He will pull out his bag of loot and toss out an item. These items can be hammers, soccer balls, or random items from the game.

Final Smash: Run Away

Now, a different possibility would be for him to simply piss something off (like the Wiggler from Dream Team) and then peace out as it rampages around the stage, but the best candidates I can think of are already playable here (Bowser, Birdo, and Wiggler). Another possibility that falls a bit into the experimental stage, but would be entirely on brand for the character, is that he simply decides to run away from battle, hopping off the stage but without his stocks and damage counter going away, effectively making him immune to losing lives and taking damage for a short time until he decides to get back into the action.

Entrance: It would be funny if his cover is blown and he just plays it off like he was always supposed to be there.

Taunts: Up would be his little hopping fit he does when he's really angry. Side, he would crouch and look back and forth with shifty eyes. Down, he might dig around in his bag like Nabbit does.

Thanks for reading! Next up, we will finish the newcomers with Durmite, or Wisdurm, the fairy-caterpillar creature from Bowser's Inside Story.

Character Sheet: Fawful

FAWFUL

Today, we begin our newcomers. I did say going into this that the RPGs would likely be the last shot for many of the frequent enemies you wouldn't expect to see on a Smash roster, but what I didn't expect was that the RPGs would actually come through for a lot of them. At least one I thought was never going to happen in a million, billion years. But here we are. The first ten are all Mario regulars who finally took the step up to playable.

Now, you who are reading this must speak of FAWFUL! Ohoho, yes, it is true. Fawful is single greatest villain to ever menace twin plumbers garbed in green and red. Fawful began his illustrious career in the service of his beautiful and wicked mistress, the Great Cackletta. But woe is Fawful, for stupid plumbers of green and red killed her to death. Now Fawful has fury! He hide out all throughout game starring purple alien mushrooms, yes. He run shop while plotting his great revenge, which he carry out in next game, dubbed Inside the Story of Large Green Turtle, where he has ascended to full and glorious villain, seeking out the Dark Star of great legend.

The great Fawful have many awe-inspiring abilities which can be utilized for great evil purpose in silly action fighting game known as Smashing the Supers who are Brothers. First, he have flying hat of his own invention, with which he can spray a powerful beanbean toxin, shoot dazzling laser beams, and use in a similar fashion to a vacuum cleaner. He can then throw lightning bolts from antenna affixed atop his head, create a dome to shield him from silly plumber's pitiful attacks, and create ring of lasers around himself. As part of his great and brilliant revengeful plotting, he uses mushrooms good for creating inflation known as blorbs, and also mushroom that creates great shrinking vacuum breath. He has much bigger flying machine on which he stands, much more powerful than silly flying hat from first game. On this machine, he can shoot energy beam laser, extend giant mechanical hand, and fire rockets. Absorbing power of the Dark Star, he creates walls of impenetrable force, through which only powerfully strong attack can get through. He also learns to float in air, summon shooting stars and balls of energy and holes of worm and misty fog through which none can see. Upon taking supreme control of the castle owned by Pink Princess of the fruit variety, he fawfulize many, many minions, imprinting his own most glorious face instead of their own hideous faces. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Now, I turn over to strange and ugly otherworldly being typing Fawful's words on strange alien device for Smashing the Supers who are Brothers rundown.

Standard B: Bean Gas

Um, anyway, whatever that was about. As you might have guessed, Fawful is all about technology, so I figure he will be a bit similar to Mega Man and have a number of beam and projectile attacks outside of his special moves, so a lot of his moves, like his lightning and his energy ball attacks, I'll save for those. For his standard B, he will spray the terrible green gas that he uses on Princess Peach at the very beginning of Superstar Saga. This will do heavy poison damage to anyone who walks through, and will turn their faces green for a short time.

Side B: Rockets

Fawful will fire off a pair of rockets from his back, which will heat seek toward the nearest players.

Up B: Jetpack Helmet

As his Bowser's Inside Story base platform will likely act as part of his body throughout regular gameplay, I figure his flying helmet from Superstar Saga can make an appearance here as his Up Special. He will fire its rocket boosters and it will carry him upward.

Down B: Energy Dome

For this one, I will use his shielding move from Superstar Saga. He will crouch down and will project a dome of energy around himself that will electrify any who come too close.

Final Smash: Dark Star Fawful

Um, a few possibilities here. One is the living version of Princess Peach's Castle created by him (but I'd kinda want to see it as a stage honestly), another is maybe the Blorbs or the Vacuum Mushroom. (Both are a little un-aggressive, so I'm not sure), but I feel the best would see him transform into the shadowy husk clone made of him by the Dark Star after he has been absorbed into it. The Fawful creature would appear on the stage and perform a number of its attacks, including creating wormholes around the stage.

Entrance: He will float down on his flying machine and chortle for a second.

Taunts: Up, he will shout "I have FURY!!" in bold text (might do damage, I don't know). Side, he will chortle his famous laugh. Down, he will tuck down and glance back and forth surreptitiously.

Thank you, puny mortal, for reading about the great and glorious Fawful. Return the day after this day to read about strange alien woman responsible for attack on kingdom of Pink Fruit Princess.

Now, let's get into some of the real good stuff: the villains. Cackletta is the main villain of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, a witch of the Beanbean Kingdom who casts curses on Princess Peach, Prince Peasley, and Queen Bean in a ploy to usurp the thrones of both kingdoms. She starts out the game in her normal witchy form before being killed and her remains eaten by Bowser, at which point her essence starts to take over his body and transform him. We will use the base form, I think.

Across your various battles with her, we can throw lightning, transform herself to look like others, ride in a flying chair that can shoot lasers, cast curses, create bat duplicates of herself, create voids for opponents to fall into, possess the bodies of others (Bowser), shoot fireballs (though that's probably more of a Bowser thing than Cackletta thing), throw shooting stars at you, and suck you in. You also get the chance to fight Cackletta's essence inside of Bowser, which will attack by creating large energy balls, sweep its arms around in a circle, and fire laser beams from its eyes.

Here's the moveset I came up with:

Standard B: Lightning

One of her main attacks. She will raise one hand, which will determine where the lightning strikes. The left will hit closer to Cackletta, the right will hit further out from Cackletta.

Side B: Void

She will send out a dark void along the ground in front of her. Anyone hit by it in the air will be immediately spiked downwards, and anyone hit by it on the ground will be buried.

Up B: Flying Chair

She will fly upward in her flying throne, which will shoot lasers directly in front of her as an added attack.

Down B: Bat Duplicate

She will create a duplicate of herself as a shield, which will disappear after a second. If it is hit, it will turn into a swarm of bats that will surround the opponent and linger on them for a short period, doing steady damage.

Final Smash: Cackletta's Soul

Cackletta's essence from inside of Bowser will take to the stage, swinging its arms around in a circle the full length of the stage, while shooting lasers from its eyes at any opponent in its line of sight.

Entrance: Lightning will strike and she will appear.

Taunts: Up, she will transform into a bat and fly upward for a second. Side, she will hold out her wand and cackle merrily. Down, she will briefly transform into Bowletta, look down at herself in surprise, and transform back.

The Great and Powerful Fawful thanks you for reading with your eyes about his glorious mistress! Return again the day after this day to learn about the one who calls himself Fawful, or else I shall have FURY!!!

Today, we're going to cover Prince Peasley, the dashing bishonen supporting character from Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. At the start of the game, you learn he's gone missing from the Beanbean Kingdom. You follow his trail to a fearsome dragon, who you discover upon defeating is the missing prince cursed by Cackletta. After that, he becomes a solid supporting character, showing up at important moments and helping you out. He doesn't have too much to work with, but drawing from his own appearances, his fight as a dragon, and his family members Queen Bean and Lady Lima, he has just enough. First off, he often appears on a flying pillow, tosses roses and flicks his hair in a dashing manner, and carries around a rapier that he uses to attack. His mother, also under a curse can spit out beans as projectiles, and given the whole bean thing the game had going on, it's not too much of a stretch. And of course we have his Dragohoho form, which can spit out Hoho Blocks and the Hoho Stone at you.

Here's his moveset:

Standard B: Bean Toss

Peasley will spin dramatically and toss out a bean, or in some cases a Beanie enemy, which will act as a light projectile.

Side B: Rapier Slash

His rapier will clearly be a constant part of his moveset, but this move will by one quick series of flurries, slashing hard at the opponent and racking up lots of damage.

Up B: Winged Pillow

I guess this one's pretty obvious. He will hop onto his winged pillow, which will carry him upwards. Another strong possibility is Blablanadon grabbing him and carrying him up, but I felt the Pillow was more personal to him.

Down B: Hoho Stone

Peasley will drop the Hoho Stone, which will act as a heavy weight that will do damage to anyone it lands on. Good for spiking.

Final Smash: Dragohoho

Basically, Peasley will transform into Dragohoho and rampage across the stage quickly.

Entrance: He will fly in on his flying pillow.

Taunts: Up, he will run his hand through his hair and smile with a sparkle. Side, he will spin dashingly, sniff a rose, and toss it to the side (doing light damage). Down, he will pat a Beanie on the head.

Thanks for reading! Next up, let's cover another prince of the Mario & Luigi series, Prince Dreambert!

Today, we'll be covering Mario and Luigi. Now, I know, I know, we already have a Mario and a Luigi and several other variants in between. Isn't it a bit extraneous to just have them both working as a pair. So, I guess to be more specific, this is Mario & Luigi as they appear in the Mario and Luigi RPG series, with moves based entirely on their tag-team abilities in those games, and stylized to look like the game series' distinct style. Their star companion Starlow will also be a technical third member of the team, as she will fly around them and appear in a number of moves and taunts.

Across the games, the brothers have a butt-ton of moves to work with, and I will do my best to sort them out for you. They have base moves like jumping and swinging their hammers, and they can also use hand-abilities like shooting fireballs and lightning. They can switch around which brother is in the front, which can then affect which abilities they can perform. For instance, with Mario behind Luigi, he can put fire to Luigi's back and make him run faster. But in the reverse way, Luigi can electrify and paralyze Mario and pull him backwards. They can also perform various jumps, like the Spin Jump to spin on top of each other, or the high jump to bounce off of each other. They can also either smack each other with a hammer to make them tiny and then smack them around like a ball, or bury them underground at which point they can then pop up under an item or unsuspecting enemy. They also have a ton of Super-Moves to be used in battle, any one of which can be utilized as the "Final Smash." Honestly, it's a take-your-pick on that one.

Here's the moveset I've come up with:

Standard B: Fire Bros. OR Thunder Bros.

My concept for them is almost two separate movesets. Pressing Down B will switch whichever brother is up front, and then they will have different moves across the board. Much like Min Min, A and B will function to control the different brothers in that state, A controlling the one up front, so that his Standard A move will utilize his fire or lightning as a mere projectile, but the B will control the one in the back. With Mario in the back, he will light a fireball on Luigi, giving him a boost of speed. Luigi in the back will let him freeze up Mario and move him around as a human shield and give them added defense.

Side B: Ball Bros. OR Dig Bros.

Side A will make use of the brothers' hammers, just swinging them around with little difference. Side B, however, if Luigi is in the back, he will smack and shorten Mario and then smack him in the butt, sending him flying forward as a ball. If Mario is in the back, he will send Luigi straight into the ground. Luigi will stay that way until you press up, at which point he will fly up out of the ground, striking any walking over him.

Up B: Spin Jump OR High Jump

If Luigi is in the back, he will jump up on top of Mario and the pair will spin in the famous spin jump. If you just press the command, they will raise and spin side to side, though you can make them fly upward with another upward press, or send them into a side drill with a sideways press. If Mario is in the back, Luigi will pull out a spring cap and let Mario hop on top of him and send him flying skyward.

Down B: Switch Bros.

Basically, this will just switch them.

Final Smash: Bros. Attack

Honestly, there are soooooooo many fitting for a final for them, and I honestly have no idea which to pick from the large number of them. So, my stance is, pick your favorite. I have a few, like the one where they fire a bunch of fireballs into a massive meteor that then slams down on the enemy, or the one where they hop into a bunch of pipes and fire them off. It's possible it could be different based on who's in front like the other moves. Whichever you pick.

Entrance: They'll rise from the ground in one of those big pipes with the two sets of footprints on them.

Taunts: Most of their victory poses are fun. Up could be their victory screen with them punching the air and saying "Go Weegee, Go Weegee." Side could have Starlow fly around them and pull at Luigi's mustache. Down, could have both brothers fall asleep and Starlow float around them like she can't believe they're sleeping at a time like this.

Today, we will begin with Toadsworth, who was left out previously largely because Toadette was Toad's echo fighter, and I just didn't care enough about the character to give him a separate slot when he was largely just another Toad in terms of moves. However, when Professor Toad gave me the inspiration needed to make Captain Toad his own separate character, suddenly we had the freedom to, shall we say, move around some stuff. Toadette could be an echo of Toad or Captain Toad and it would work either way. And freeing up Toad left a nice opening for a Mario regular who'd been waiting in the wings long enough.

Here's his moveset:

Standard B: Pick Up and Throw

Probably a much weaker throw than the regular Toad

Side B: Ice Flower OR Boomerang Flower

Or maybe using his magic wand, which we can then retroactively give to the Toads.

Up B: Propeller Hat

Down B: Treasure Chest

Just pulls out items he can use or give to others.

Final Smash: Mega Mushroom

Honestly, the idea of Toadsworth tromping around as a giant adds a bit of a comedy element to it, I think.

Entrance: He steps out of a Toad House and clears his throat.

Taunts: I've recently had it pointed out to me that the taunts generally have a subtle direction to them. The Up Taunt has some kind of upward movement, Side is side-to-side or neutral, and Down has a downward movement. I'm going to try my hand at that. Up, he will wave his wand in the air and cause magic to appear. Side, he will do his signature cough. Down, he will sit down and take a load off for a while.

Next up: Let's cover Captain Toad, who is either the echo of Toadette or Toadette is the echo of him, whichever you prefer.

Character Sheet: Birdo (Revision)

 BIRDO

This will largely be our last run of revisions, for the Mario series at least. Now that the RPGs are over, pretty much every game left is either something we've already covered for the most part (Remakes, etc.), or run on a core game mechanic not unique to any one character (the Sports games). So, once these are done, I will do character sheets for new characters added and just a general sum up for everyone else. With all that said, let's get into it:

1. Mario 
2. Luigi 
3. Professor E. Gadd 
4. Princess Peach 
5. Toad 
6. Toadette 
7. Bowser 
8. Dry Bowser 
9. Bowser Jr. 
10. Koopalings 
11. Koopa Troopa 
12. Dry Bones 
13. Goomba 
14. Piranha Plant 
15. Boo 
16. Cheep Cheep 
17. Blooper 
18. Bob-Omb 
19. Lakitu 
20. Monty Mole 
21. Spike 
22. Hammer Bro 
23. Chargin' Chuck 
24. Wiggler 
25. Chain Chomp 
26. Birdo 
27. Petey Piranha 
28. King Boo 
29. Paper Mario
30. Yoshi 
31. Baby Mario 
32. Baby Bowser 
33. Kamek 
34. Shy Guy

Alright, Birdo! The character they can't quite figure out what to do with, so she makes random cameos that almost make no sense. This time, she shows up in the Rubber Band boss's stage show and puts on a show with Mario in Origami King. Also, in Superstar Saga, she acts as a decoy for Peach and then later just becomes Popple's new sidekick for some reason. I don't know why, but hey, she's fun when she does it.

Here is her moveset:

Standard B: Egg

Side B: Egg Hop

Up B: Pidgit

Down B: Blow a Kiss

Final Smash: Eagle Gate

Entrance: She will descend on the small platform she appears on in Sticker Star and Color Splash.

Taunts: Maybe her tendency to pace back and forth, also blowing a kiss, doing her whole cabaret musical performance thing.

Next up: Let's cover Petey Piranha!

Character Sheet: Princess Peach (Revision)

 PRINCESS PEACH

This will largely be our last run of revisions, for the Mario series at least. Now that the RPGs are over, pretty much every game left is either something we've already covered for the most part (Remakes, etc.), or run on a core game mechanic not unique to any one character (the Sports games). So, once these are done, I will do character sheets for new characters added and just a general sum up for everyone else. With all that said, let's get into it:

1. Mario 
2. Luigi 
3. Professor E. Gadd 
4. Princess Peach 
5. Toad 
6. Toadette 
7. Bowser 
8. Dry Bowser 
9. Bowser Jr. 
10. Koopalings 
11. Koopa Troopa 
12. Dry Bones 
13. Goomba 
14. Piranha Plant 
15. Boo 
16. Cheep Cheep 
17. Blooper 
18. Bob-Omb 
19. Lakitu 
20. Monty Mole 
21. Spike 
22. Hammer Bro 
23. Chargin' Chuck 
24. Wiggler 
25. Chain Chomp 
26. Birdo 
27. Petey Piranha 
28. King Boo 
29. Paper Mario
30. Yoshi 
31. Baby Mario 
32. Baby Bowser 
33. Kamek 
34. Shy Guy

Today, let's cover Princess Peach. Although she appears in all games covered here, she really doesn't have much to go on. Most of the games, she spends half her time held captive by the respective enemy, and the other half of the time just kinda hanging around in the hub area. She gets cursed a couple times, gaining literally explosive vocabulary and growing a mushroom face at one point, but its pretty basic for her this time.

Here is her moveset:

Standard B: Group Hug

It's a good thing I got rid of that Toad counter move altogether considering certain coming developments. (Spoilers)

Side B: Sleepy Time

Up B: Parasol

Down B: Parasol Shield

Final Smash: Psych Bomb

Entrance: She floats down from the sky on her parasol.

Taunts: Her kiss of Mario at the end of many games could be one, a lot of her small movements throughout her cutscenes perhaps, some of her victory screens maybe.

Next up: It's time for Toad!

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

 MARIO & LUIGI: SUPERSTAR SAGA

Now, let us begin the Mario series' other beloved RPG franchise, the Mario & Luigi handheld series. The series is a set of five games created by AlphaDream, before they sadly went under. The games were quirky oddball games with a unique sense of humor to them that centered on Mario and Luigi working together as a tag-team and had a whole set of moves that required them working together. In the first game, we follow them as they journey to the neighboring Beanbean Kingdom, which has come under siege by the wicked witch Cackletta and her strange little minion Fawful.

Mario and Luigi mainly work together in these games, their movesets being entirely built on one another, though they do have a few solo moves such as jumping, using their hammers, and throwing fire and lightning from their hands respectively. Their moves outside of battle change based on who is in front, with Mario standing on Luigi's head and performing a spin jump or Luigi jumping on top of Mario to spring off of him; or Mario smacking Luigi with a hammer to bury him in the ground, or Luigi doing the same to make Mario short; or Mario lighting Luigi on fire to make them move faster, or Luigi electrifying Mario to pull him backwards. In battle they have moves based on each of these. They also have a couple of secret moves, Swing Bros and Cyclone Bros, both of which involve them spinning together, the first with Mario hurling Luigi at their enemies, the other with them forming a tornado and attacking together. Strictly speaking, this all could work toward a moveset on its own, I just worry a little bit about having Mario and Luigi working as a tandem team on a stage with a regular Mario and Luigi hanging around. I imagine they'll have to be stylized to work. It's a good thing this series has such an iconic art style in its own right.

As for our ally characters, we have a few regulars, like Princess Peach who does her standard "Damsel-in-Distress" thing, although at one point she does gain literally explosive vocabulary thanks to a curse from Cackletta. Bowser also hangs around, sometimes as an ally, sometimes enemy, sometimes with memory loss, sometimes possessed by Cackletta (the game's a bit of an experience for him). During his regular battles, he can stomp, breathe fire, and throw hammers at you. The royal family of the Beanbean Kingdom include Queen Bean, who you fight as a possessed boss once as she creates shockwaves and spits beans at you; and her son Prince Peasley, who flies around on a pillow, slashes around with his lance, flicks his hair a lot, and gives you a rose as a token of thanks (typical dashing prince-y stuff). He also gets cursed to turn into a dragon at one point. There's also Lady Lima, the queen's advisor. Then there's Toadsworth and the other Toads, who act as NPCs. Yoshi and Birdo also appear, Yoshis as NPCs, and Birdo as a minor boss, throwing kisses at you, spitting eggs, throwing bombs, and sucking you in.

A handful of NPCs who should also be noted here are the Border Bros, the Starshade Bros, the Hammerhead Bros, Cork and Cask, and the Jellyfish Sisters, each of whom primarily exist specifically to teach Mario and Luigi a specific type of move as covered above. As they basically are that move and that move alone incarnate, there's not much need to consider them. (A couple of BEEFy brothers in a later game on the other hand . . .). Then there's Blablanadon, a giant pterodactyl who carries you places.

Cackletta and Fawful are our main villains here. Cackletta is a wicked witch scheming to take over the Beanbean Kingdom, and Fawful is her strange little minion with a strange speech pattern and a huge fan following. When you first fight Cackletta, she can cast lightning, transform herself to look like others, fly around in a flying chair, fire laser blasts, use curses to transform others, and create duplicates of herself that turn into bats when hit. After she is seemingly killed, her essence possesses Bowser, changing him into Bowletta. Fighting as Bowletta, she can breathe fireballs and a regular stream of fire, call down shooting stars, and suck you in. When you enter her body, you'll find and fight her essence, which will attack with her claws, balls of light, and laser eyes. Fawful on the other hand focuses more on his seemingly alien tech. He has a special hat that can fire bean gas, fly, fire blasts, and suck you up. In battle he can also shoot lightning from his antenna, tuck into a dome and shoot lasers from it, and spawn a circle of laser balls.

Among our bosses is the recurring thief Popple, a spiritual successor of sorts to Croco, an underhanded but ultimately cowardly thief who sticks his nose where it doesn't belong. He spends much of his time with a companion, relying on their muscle to get by while doing little himself. That said, in battle, he will ram into you, steal things from you, perform Bros. Attacks with his partner that often lead to himself getting hurt, and throwing items out of a money bag (similar to Croco). If his partner is defeated, he will run away. The Koopalings all appear as well and each battle you. Iggy will spin really fast, Morton will stomp, Lemmy will split himself into multiples and breathe fire, Ludwig will spin in his shell, Roy carries a time bomb, Wendy travels around between pipes and throws rings, and Larry plays ping pong with you, basically.

Other bosses include Tolstar, a greedy bully who charges you money and throws spike balls at you; Hoohooros, a statue that fires lasers; Dragohoho, Prince Peasley in a dragon form who spits projectiles; the Chuckolator, a being made of soda with a sword and shield that will send waves and bubbles of soda after you; a big Mom Piranha who will whip you with vines and spawn babies; Trunkle, a tree that will suck you in and split into multiples; Hermie III, a, shiny, hermit crab that decorates its shell and pinches you; and Jojora, an ice spirit and one of her four giant snowwoman friends who throw giant snowballs.

Standard returning enemies include: Koopas, Goombas, Fighter Flies, Bullet Bills, Dry Bones, Rexes, Spinies, Wigglers, Shy Guys with spears, Snifits, Viruses from Doctor Mario, mechanical Chomps, Bloopers, Piranha Plants, Lakitus, Cheep Cheeps, Boomerang and Hammer Bros (and Yo-yo, Chomp, and Limbo variants), Magikoopas, and Boos. Brand new enemies include: Beanies, basic enemies that can sometimes grow wings; Sharpeas, which are basically Spinies; Sworms, little worms sticking out of the dirt; Fuzzbushes that spit Fuzzies; Eekers, living beakers that fight with fire; Oho Jees, who freak out; Oucher Glasses, living hourglasses; Malibuts and Starkisses, who live in the ocean; Clumphs, big caveman things with clubs; and Glurps that vomit pink clouds.

The game mostly takes place within the Beanbean Kingdom. Before you get there, you do see Mario's House, Peach's Castle, Toad Town Square, and the Koopa Cruiser. After that you enter the Beanbean Borderlands, making up Stardust Fields, Hoohoo Village, and Hoohoo Mountain, before coming to Beanbean Castle and the town around it. After that you explore the various sections of the map, including Chucklehuck Woods with Chateau de Chucklehuck and the Chuckola Reserve, where they brew Chuckola cola. Then you visit Woohoo Hooniversity before falling to Oho Oasis in the Oho Ocean. (Yes, almost all of these places are different words for laughter). Then you get to Teehee Valley, Little Fungitown, Guffawha Ruins and the S.S. Chuckola in the desert, before freeing the ship into Gwarhar Lagoon. Then you enter the Winkle Realms and their Colosseum, and then finish in Joke's End and Bowser's Castle.

Items, besides things like hammers and your suitcase that you carry with you, tend to feature things like mushrooms and beans, restoring health and fight power respectively, and the famous Chuckola Cola of course.
