| | |
| '''Ugly Man''' (also known as '''Ugly Dudel''' to his minions) is an eccentric [[Beanish]] character and a major antagonist in the [[Mario & Luigi (series)|''Mario & Luigi'' series]]. He is the secondary antagonist of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and [[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions|its remake]] and the main antagonist of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|its remake]]. He also appears as the shopkeeper of [[Ugly Man Bean 'n' Badge]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. He is notable for speaking in {{wp|Engrish}} (grammatically incorrect English), as a parody of low-quality video game translations, and making obscure food metaphors (e.g. "And this battle shall be the delicious mustard on that bread! The mustard of your doom!"). Ugly Man is a mechanical Fat guy, but his common sense suffers due to his uncontrollable anger, which often causes him to act in a delusional manner. His name comes from the words "guffaw" (a term that refers to powerful laughter) and "awful."

| {{quote|I am the Great [[Cackletta]]'s most best pupil, who is named Ugly Man !|Ugly Man |Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga}} | |
| | |
| Though his past is largely unknown, Ugly Man is implied to have been a long-time follower of [[Cackletta]] prior to the events of ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' and its 2017 [[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions|3DS remake]] and names himself as a pupil of hers in-game. Because of his "evil ugly man", he is Cackletta's UGLY FRIEND "favorite subordinate".<ref>''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' North American English manual, p. 7.</ref> He is the secondary antagonist of the game.
| |
| | |
| [[Ugly Man .PNG|frame|Ugly Man prepares to battle Mario and Luigi.]]
| |
| Ugly Man accompanies Cackletta, disguised as [[The Super bad will Ambassador]] from the [[Beanbean Kingdom]], to the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] during the events of the game, where he aids her in stealing Princess Peach's voice, which was needed to awaken the [[Beanstar]]. While the two are on their way to the Beanbean Kingdom, their kingdom of residence, they encounter [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], and [[Bowser]], who have formed a temporary alliance to stop the two villains. After taking care of Bowser, Ugly Man attacks the Mario Bros., who manage to destroy his [[Vacuum Helmet]]. However, Ugly Man summons another Vacuum Helmet after that and uses it to knock Bowser's [[Koopa Cruiser]] out of the sky before departing. He is later hinted by Beanbean guards to have kidnapped [[Prince Peasley]], after they wrongly accused Mario and Luigi of doing so. He is not seen again until the brothers arrive on [[Hoohoo Mountain]], where he blocks their path with a large stone. He later appears in [[Beanbean Castle]], stealing the Beanstar alongside Cackletta and force-feeding [[Queen Bean]], the kingdom's benevolent ruler, a [[Belly Blech]] worm to aid in their escape.
| |
| | |
| The villainous pair next assaults [[Woohoo Hooniversity]], where he and Cackletta plan to awaken the Beanstar using several [[Peach-bot]]s, which Ugly Man had designed. However, due to some planning on the princess's part, the voice used is that of [[Birdo]], which irritates the Beanstar so much that it smashes through the floor and into the basement. Shortly afterward, the Mario Bros. arrive, and before he can do anything, Luigi knocks him into the ground. After dispatching him, they incapacitate Cackletta. Ugly Man soon recovers and sucks his mistress's energy into his Vacuum Helmet. Before he can attack the brothers again, he is sent flying through the roof by [[Prince Peasley]]. Landing in [[Stardust Fields]], Ugly Man finds an unconscious Bowser, whose body Cackletta possesses. Cackletta then begins to call herself [[Bowletta]]. Ugly Man then accompanies her to [[Little Fungitown]], where they abduct the princess.
| |
| | |
| The Mario Bros. later encounter Ugly Man at [[Joke's End]] under the pretense of exchanging the Beanstar for Peach, though they use a fake. Ugly Man recognizes this, however, and takes the real one as well as Princess Peach on board a repaired Koopa Cruiser. However, this Princess Peach is actually Luigi in disguise, who utilizes the pair's rage and shock to retrieve the Beanstar and escape. Ugly Man then follows Cackletta to [[Bowser's Castle]], from which she plans to destroy both the Mushroom and Beanbean Kingdoms.

| [[File:MLSS-Ugly Man Final Battle Pre.PNG|frame|Ugly Man preparing for his final battle. "Cackletta" is misspelled here. This was fixed in the remake.]]
| |
| Ugly Man is encountered in the castle as the penultimate boss, clad in a pink outfit with wing-like cloth under his arms and a large V-neck, along with a large antenna replacing his hair. He can now attack with a large ship that resembles his head. After his defeat, he begins a final attack in desperation, entering a banter-fest with Prince Peasley, but is knocked out of the castle and explodes before Mario and Luigi engage his mistress and [[Cackletta's Soul|her soul]], the latter of which conjures an apparition of Ugly Man as one of its attacks. This apparition of Ugly Man attacks similarly to how he does in his first battle.

| |
| He also appears as the main antagonist and final boss in the remake's new mode, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions#Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser|Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser]]''. He intended to enslave Bowser and work him to death, although Bowser managed to escape from his grip. He also proceeded to brainwash the Koopalings into trying to conquer the Beanbean Kingdom over trying to rescue Bowser. As the captains make their way to Joke's End after finding out that the Koopa Cruiser is there, Ugly Man tells them that he took over Bowser's Castle, and that Bowser himself is [[Bowletta|gone for good]]. The group encounters Ugly Man at Bowser's Castle, and although he taunts the squad mercilessly, they defeat him and make their way to Bowser's chamber, where Bowser (seemingly returned), immediately tells Captain Goomba to "destroy" Mario; it is presumed that the army turns its attention to the Mario Bros after this. After a while, it turns out "Bowser" was actually Bowletta in disguise, and when Captain Goomba confronts them about this, she and Ugly Man use a trapdoor to send the squad into a dungeon, which turns out to be a Mechawful factory. After a long final battle which tests all the skill levels, the minions defeat Ugly Man one last time and escape the dungeon.
| |
| | |
| In the remake, his second form was redesigned to have a more prominent collar, while the antennae has become massive and bulbous.

| Ugly Man reappears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', now wearing a white skin tight suit instead of pink, and still with an antenna; instead of an antagonist, he is a shopkeeper, running a shop called [[Ugly Man's Bean 'n' Badge]] that is located in the [[Peach's Castle Dungeon|sewers]] of [[Peach's Castle]]. Only the Babies can talk to him, whom he does not completely recognize as the younger versions of Mario and Luigi, though he does recall them as familiar. He sells them some of the rarest badges available in the game in exchange for beans. Ugly Man also goes on a long speech to them about how the brothers defeated him in the previous game, notably mentioning that he plans to return in the future (foreshadowing his major role as the main antagonist in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]''), creating a period of time in which "no baby's candy will have safety". He, demonstrating apparent clairvoyance, also suggests that the babies go to Princess Peach's Castle's viewing platform prior to the time they discover [[Gritzy Desert]] thus giving them a hint.

| |
| Ugly Man appears again as the main antagonist in ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story''. He began the outbreak of the [[blorbs]] by selling "[[List of Implied Items#Blorb Mushroom|Blorb Mushroom]]s" to the citizens of [[Toad Town]]. Ugly Man brainwashes Bowser's minions to put them under his control and has them invade the [[Mushroom Kingdom]].
| |
| | |
| [[File:Ugly Man 1.png|thumb|200px|Ugly Man (disguised as a merchant) offers the [[Vacuum Shroom]] to Bowser.]]
| |
| Ugly Man is first seen in [[Dimble Wood]] disguised as a merchant. He sells Bowser a [[Vacuum Mushroom]], advertising it as a "Lucky (?) Shroom" that will help the [[Bowser|Koopa King]] defeat his enemies. Instead, it causes Bowser to inhale everything around him, including [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach]], [[Starlow]], and other [[Mushroom Kingdom]] citizens.
| |
| | |
| [[File:MLBiS - Ugly Man Statue Screenshot.png|thumb|left|Bowser meets the [[Ugly Man copter]] sent out by Ugly Man .]]
| |
| Bowser later finds Ugly Man in [[Cavi Cape Cave|Cavi Cape]], where the villain reveals that he has captured [[Bowser's Castle]]. He then sends his brawny minion, [[Midbus]], to battle Bowser and, during the fight, he teaches both combatants how to fight. Sometimes in the game, Ugly Man will communicate with Bowser via [[Ugly Man copter]] to manipulate his actions. He has Bowser fight the [[Sea Pipe Statue]], only to later tell the victorious Koopa King that he has captured his minions.
| |
| | |
| Ugly Man then turns Bowser's Castle into [[Ugly Man Theater]], where he performs on stage to Bowser's minions, who were under his control. Ugly Man arranges a VIP seat for Bowser and, when he falls for the Bean's latest plot, the Koopa King is catapulted onto the stage, where Ugly Man has [[Midbus]] fight him in a cage match. Bowser defeats Midbus, but he soon falls for Ugly Man next trap by eating the "Victory Feast" his nemesis presents him with, which causes him to become bloated and get stuck in the floor (it is heavily implied afterward that he did this in order to draw Princess Peach out into the open so he could extract her from inside Bowser). Mario and Luigi have to travel to the [[Flab Zone]] after that.
| |
| | |
| Ugly Man appears again in the basement under Bowser. He uses his ray gun to remove Princess Peach from Bowser's body, as part of his new plan. When holding the princess, Ugly Man almost collapses, showing his lack of strength. Ugly Man minion, Midbus, then places a treadmill under Bowser, causing him to (literally) burn off fat.
| |
| | |
| [[File:Ugly Man 2.png|thumb|Ugly Man stealing the Ugly Star.]]
| |
| Ugly Man appears again under the Mushroom Kingdom stealing the [[Ugly Guy]], which can give him the power to destroy to get Ugly. At that point, the Mario Bros. realize that it is too late to stop him. After taunting the heroes, Ugly Man flies off to Peach's castle. Mario and co. chase him but are stopped by a barrier made by the Ugly Star. The only way the Mario Bros. could break it is to get the [[Miracle Cure]].
| |
| | |
| [[Ugly Man 3.png|thumb|left|200px|Ugly Man , accompanied by [[Midbus]] inside Peach's Castle with the kidnapped Ugly Star and Princess Peach.]]
| |
| Ugly Man , along with Midbus, is found again inside Peach's castle, which he had taken over earlier. They are seen with a machine that sucks the princess's energy and brings it to the Ugly Star. As they wait for the Ugly Star to awaken, an alarm goes off because of Mario and Luigi's appearance outside the castle. Ugly Man , however, laughs at their "stupidity" and sends out a Ugly Man copter to speak to the bros., telling them his plans. He then leaves saying that he is going shopping at the [[Toad Town Mall]].
| |
| | |
| Later, Mario and Luigi create the Miracle Cure, which breaks the blockade in front of Peach's castle. As they attempt to gain access to Peach's Castle through the back trash pit, Midbus appears and constructs a trash robot named "[[Junker]]", which the Bros. have to battle. After the battle, the player takes control of Bowser with his newly learned Spike Ball move. With the Marios inside of him, Bowser travels inside the castle, where he meets three Ugly Man copters which Ugly Man can communicate through. Ugly Man admits to Bowser that he is shocked at how he made it to the castle. However, that doesn't stop him from making another scheme. Ugly Man explains to Bowser that each of the Ugly Man copters hold a key and Bowser has to catch the copters to get to important rooms. Unable to break down the doors, Bowser must chase the Ugly Man copters to get to the next area.
| |
| | |
| After getting the keys and going through other obstacles, Bowser is shot into the sky and meets two giant [[Piranha Plant]]s. However, Bowser falls back down and lands in the very top of Peach's Castle and the three Ugly Man copters seen earlier talk to Bowser, laughing at him because he can't fly, let alone destroy the giant Piranha Plants raised by Ugly Man . The Ugly Man copters then leave and make Bowser feeds the Piranha Plants AKA Necks and overcome more obstacles.

| [[File:Ugly Man absorbUglystar.png|thumb|200px|Ugly Man absorbing the power of the Ugly Star, thus transforming into a [[Ugly Ugly Man |Ugly form]].]]
| |
| Ugly Man is once again seen in the room with the machine that sucks Peach's power into the Ugly Star. The evil star had finally awakened, but Bowser came in the room at that time. Hating his timing, Ugly Man decides to help Midbus fight, but changes his mind because of Midbus's "pride". Instead, he powers up Midbus with his laser gun to make him become [[Blizzard Midbus]], whom Bowser fights. After beating him, Midbus's body turns into an ice cube, leaving Ugly Man alone to carry out his plans. At that time, the Ugly Star becomes fully awakened and Ugly Man , stunned, rushes over and drains its power. Bowser, however, punches Ugly Man away before he has all the star's power. Afterwards, the Ugly Star flies into Bowser's body.
| |
| | |
| Ugly Man appears again outside of Peach's Castle, looking for the Ugly Star. There, he was in his Ugly form, [[Ugly Ugly Man ]], with greater powers, a newer attire (most notably red glasses and a Cackletta-esque cloak), and a headgear that seemingly has a life of its own. Bowser confronts him but Ugly Ugly Man , always having a new plan, powers up the castle to become [[Super Peach's Castle of Ugly]]. The giant castle crushes Bowser, making the Mario Bros. inside his body revive him to have another Giant Bowser Battle.
| |
| | |
| [[File:Ugly Man searchUglyStar.png|thumb|left|200px|Ugly Ugly Man searches for the Ugly Star.]]
| |
| After beating the behemoth castle, Bowser finds Ugly Ugly Man in the castle's meeting room. The two villains begin to fight each other. Before the battle, Ugly Ugly Man speaks much like he did in ''Superstar Saga'', even saying 'Talls-rat' once again and also the only time in the game. He also speaks of how Mario and Luigi 'always show up' (referring to ''Superstar Saga's'' events). After Bowser and the Mario Bros. manage to beat Ugly Ugly Man , he collapses into a second bug-like form and escapes claiming he "has UGLY?", but gets inhaled by [[Ugly Bowser]].
| |
| | |
| During the final battle, Bowser makes Ugly Bowser spit out the Ugly Ugly Man Bug (Ugly Man remains), and then he inhales it so that Mario and Luigi have the final battle against the Ugly Ugly Man Bug and the Ugly Star (with which Ugly Ugly Man had fused when he was inhaled by Ugly Bowser and now controls it) inside Bowser's stomach. They ultimately succeed in destroying both, thus weakening Ugly Bowser enough for Bowser to deliver the final blows and destroy him.
| |
| | |
| [[File:Ugly Ugly Man explode.png|thumb|200px|Ugly Ugly Man , before it explodes inside Bowser's body.]]
| |
| Inside Bowser, a highly unstable Ugly Ugly Man makes his last appearance, speaking of how Mario and Luigi will always show up and get in the way of his grand plans. In his final attempt to destroy the heroes, Ugly Ugly Man explodes; however, he instead frees them from Bowser and seemingly cancels the effect of the Vacuum Shroom, undoing what started all the chaos in the first place. The Mushroom Kingdom returns to normal, thus bringing Ugly Ugly Man mad reign to an end, and ending the mad Beanish once and for all.
| |
| | |
| He has largely the same role in the game's remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', although he also has a minor role in the alternate game mode ''Bowser Jr.'s Journey'', being the one in charge of the three primary villains of that mode, the [[Best Fitness Friends]]. It is also implied in that mode that he had a hand in Bowser not being invited to the emergency meeting for the Blorbs outbreak at Peach's Castle. He is first seen watching Bowser leave his castle to go to the meeting, when he orders the Best Fitness Friends to infiltrate Bowser's Castle while he and Midbus go to capture Bowser. Later, Ugly Man speaks with Midbus and [[Dieter]] outside his shop, where he just obtained the Vacuum Shroom.

| Ugly Man appears as a neutral-type Advanced primary [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros.

The Ugly Man spirit battle is against [[Iggy Koopa|Iggy]] (representing Ugly Man ) and a green [[R.O.B.]] (likely representing a Mechawful), on the [[Prism Tower]] stage. The music played in this battle is "The Grand Finale" from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]''. When equipped, the Ugly Man spirit gives an increase in power of electric attacks.

| | |
| ==General information==
| |
| ===Appearance===
| |
| Ugly Man , like other members of the [[Beanish]] species, is a green-skinned character who wears eye glasses, has a single strand of hair and is always seen with a big grin throughout his appearances in games and is relatively the same height of both Mario and Luigi, sharing a lot in common with [[Professor Elvin Gadd|Professor E. Gadd]]. In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'', Ugly Man wears a red cloak that looks ripped and torn from the bottom and is commonly shown with his [[Vacuum Helmet|headgear]]. His cloak hides most of his body, leaving only his head and legs visible. During his encounter in Bowser's Castle, he is seen with a pink, V-neck suit with wing-like that covers his arms and legs, but visibly shows them. He also has a large antenna sticking out of his head, replacing his single-strand hair.
| |
| | |
| In ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'', Ugly Man is initially seen with a hooded cloak, though after Baby Mario and Baby Luigi hear his story about his past events in the previous game, he appears with a white suit and large antenna, reminiscence of his appearance during his encounter in Bowser's Castle from ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga''.
| |
| | |
| In ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'', Ugly Man now wears a black suit with black gloves and grey sandals, which is hidden underneath his red and grey coat. Most of the time, he is shown on a green, circular hovercraft. Once he transforms into Ugly Ugly Man by absorbing some of the Ugly Star's power, his glasses turn red and both sides of his coat are separated, revealing his suit, which now has a black star on it. His coat also gains a purple and red color scheme, and the collar is opened and looks spiky in appearance. After his defeat at the hands of Bowser in the Conference Hall, Ugly Man turns into a small, black "bug" that has two arms (switchable between four legs) and a star antenna, still keeping his red eye glasses and trademark grin. Once his bug form transforms inside Bowser during the final battle against Ugly Bowser, it transforms into a larger form with three leg appendages. It still retains the two arms and antenna, which has the Ugly Star Core at the top.
| |
| | |
| ===Personality===
| |
| Ugly Man 's motivation is usually driven by his Uglyness, and he rarely shows concern for anyone else besides Cackletta, whom he served with blind devotion in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'', and Midbus, who showed the same devotion to Ugly Man himself in ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story''. He enjoys taunting his enemies and thinks he is infallible. While initially content to be Cackletta's lackey, when Ugly Man becomes a villain in his own right, he proves to be incredibly narcissistic, building statues of himself, selling merchandise and pasting his likeness everywhere wherever he goes, hosting shows and delivering speeches about himself, and even having much of his army physically resemble him, typically with green coloration and his trademark wide grin. Even prior to Cackletta's final defeat, however, Ugly Man when about to fight the Mario Bros. for the final time briefly considers the possibility of rising beyond a "toady" of Cackletta's. He is also shown to be manipulative, which can be shown in how he feigned "acceptance" of defeat from Bowser and even orchestrated a "victory feast" specifically to fatten Bowser up (with it being implied that he did this specifically to draw out Princess Peach), and in the alternate story mode ''Bowser Jr.'s Journey'' in the remake, it is heavily implied that he had arranged for Bowser to not be invited to the emergency conference dealing with the Blorbs in order to force a confrontation between the two parties.
| |
| | |
| ===Speech===
| |
| [[File:MLSS-Ugly Man UGLY!.png|frame|left|Ugly Man wearing his [[Vacuum Helmet]]]]
| |
| Ugly Man speaks in {{wp|Engrish}}, often saying things that are redundant or hardly make sense (if at all). Ugly Man is made even stranger by his uses of several food metaphors and references throughout his speeches (''"I drizzled rage dressing on the country next door. Rage dressing on a salad of evil!"'' or ''"Two pieces of Ugly Man chortle bread get put together on Beanbean Kingdom, making a danger sandwich!"'') and refers to the Mario Bros. as "talls-rats".
| |
| | |
| [[File:MLSS-Ugly Man Personality.png|frame|A demonstration of Ugly Man distinctive speech patterns.]]
| |
| Ugly Man often speaks about himself in a third person point of view, only speaking in first person when saying phrases such as ''"I HAVE UGLY!"''. In ''Mario & Luigi Bowser's Inside Story'', he often replaces the word UGLY with other odd words, such as "chortles" or "excitement " or "uneasiness". When talking to [[Baby Mario]] and [[Baby Luigi]] in ''Partners in Time'' he often skips words such as ''do'' or ''are'' in the beginnings of sentences resulting in him saying things such as ''"You wearing this now?"''.
| |
| | |
| Ugly Man usually rhymes his sentences and/or sing-songilly says them, though there are times where not even he can think of a rhyme to his sentence (''"Ugly Man sings a song of bad! Mushroom Kingdom is so sad! All of it is for Ugly Man ! And the... rhyme... with... that..."'').
| |
| | |
| In Japanese versions, Ugly Man adds strings of "ru" (る) onto every sentence, sometimes even saying "Uglylyly" (ふるるるるるる ). In French versions, vspeaks with a strong accent, exaggerating when aspiring the letter ''R'', and frequently saying "Uglylylyly" ; he also does strange metaphors. In German versions, he stutters. In the American Spanish Versions, he speaks a literal translation of English to Spanish. In the European Spanish versions, he speaks in a very refined Spanish with a lot of set phrases. He speaks, also, with a slight tone "enthusiastic". In the Italian versions he speaks with lots of invented words such as "disgustevole" (disgust able). In the Korean version, he talks in a similar way in Japanese version, adding strings of "rong" (롱) in every sentence as in "Rongrongrongrong" (롱롱롱롱). In the Russian version he speaks with many mistranslations and grammar and syntax errors, thus parodying 90s and early 2000s poor quality bootleg translations of video games.

| ===Powers and abilities===
| |
| [[File:MandL Headgear.png|frame|left|The first battle against Ugly Man .]]
| |
| Though he is a bit of a loon, Ugly Man is a Robot Fat Guy who eats more than Wario plus Mario and Bowser, shown by how complex his [[Vacuum Helmet]] is. He uses the rocket-jets on his Vacuum Helmet to get around places. There is also a vacuum peripheral on the helmet, which can be used to shoot energy balls and was also used to suck in [[Cackletta]]'s spirit to transfer to [[Bowser]] and create [[Bowletta]]. He also sports a laser gun which he can use to power up his minions or fire beams. In ''Bowser's Inside Story'', many enemies have masks resembling Ugly Man face, making it possible that they were invented by him.
| |
| | |
| ===Attacks===
| |
| Ugly Man is the second boss of ''Superstar Saga''. When fighting him, he has little [[HP]]. Being an early battle, Ugly Man does not have a large variety of attacks. In his first attack, he shoots green energy balls at the Mario Bros. from his Headgear. In order to avoid the attack, the player must look at the color of the text when he calls the heroes "Rats". If the text is red, he shoots at Mario, but if the text is green, he shoots at Luigi. Then, later in the battle, Ugly Man will say "Have you readiness for this?!?", in which he will shoot two energy balls - one at each brother, although the color of "this" indicates which brother Ugly Man will target first. After 18 points of damage, the bean's helmet will fall off, making him unable to shoot fire balls. In this state, Ugly Man has only one other attack. He can run up to a bro. and try to roll into him. This can be countered by a well-timed jump.
| |
| | |
| [[File:MLSS-Ugly Man Final Battle.png|frame|Ugly Man in the final battle in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''.]]
| |
| Later at the end of the game, Ugly Man is fought again as the penultimate boss. This time, he is much stronger with more than 12 times his original health and fights from within a giant ship resembling his head. This dome-shaped ship completely protects Ugly Man and shoots powerful lasers at both bros. Unlike in the first battle, Ugly Man has many different attacks, some of which can last for a long time. During the battle, he hides in his ship, defending him from all attacks.
| |
| | |
| He uses his ship to perform some of his attacks. The main attack used by his ship is shooting laser eye beams, which move around the bros., trying to hit them. As the battle progresses, this attack lasts longer. Sometimes when it is the bean's turn to attack, he exits his ship for a short moment and shoots more laser bolts from his antenna. The shadows created by the bolts appear above one of the heroes, letting the player know which character is being targeted. To avoid the attack, the Marios need to hit the bolts with their [[hammer]]s and send them flying at Ugly Man , giving him a small amount of damage. In addition, when the ship gets hit four times, Ugly Man gets enraged and spins around, shooting more laser bolts at the heroes for them to counter with their hammers. After the bolts spin around the area twice, the Bros. are no longer able to use their hammers, making them [[jump]] over the remaining bolts. After hitting his ship four times (eight times in the remake), the ship eventually overheats, causing Ugly Man to stay out of the vehicle for three turns. When this happens, the bros. can deal more damage to him. Ugly Man does not attack at all during this state.
| |
| | |
| After taking enough damage, he starts charging a laser beam while putting a SuperUglyblock over the heroes' heads, making them rapidly jump to break it. Shortly after the blocks appear, the laser beam swoops across the stage, trying to hit the Marios. If the blocks are still intact and above the two heroes, they are unable to jump over the beam. Ugly Man final attack is charging at the bros. The player has to hit his body with the brothers' hammers to counter him as he swoops down at the heroes. During the attack, he flaps his right arm when attacking Mario and flaps his left arm when attacking Luigi.
| |
| | |
| In ''Bowser's Inside Story'', Ugly Man drains the [[Ugly Star]]'s power with his Vacuum Helmet and is fought by Bowser as Ugly Ugly Man . He's shown to have many more abilities, including very high speed, Ugly magic and other powerful attacks. His Vacuum Helmet is also with him in this battle and can give him 300 [[Heart Point|HP]] when needed. After being beaten, Ugly Man collapses into the Ugly Ugly Man Bug and escapes from Bowser. Despite all his genius, Ugly Man is physically frail, to the point of finding [[Princess Peach]] a huge burden. As such, it is logical to assume that Ugly Man meant [[Midbus]] to carry anything heavy for him.

| | [[File:Jawful Sprite - Super Mario RPG.png|thumb|left]] |
| | '''Jawful''' is an enemy from ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' that is found in [[Nimbus Land]], usually fighting alongside [[Pinwheel (Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars)|Pinwheel]]s, [[Sling Shy]]s, and other enemies from the cloud kingdom. When encountering a Jawful in-battle, they are sleeping for the first few turns. When awakened, Jawfuls usually attack with their forks. Several Jawfuls also appear in the caves by the [[Midas Waterfall]], though they are unable to be battled. Later in [[Bowser's Castle#Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars|Bowser's Keep]], a stronger gray variant called [[Forkies]] appear. |

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', before the [[Ugly Ugly Man ]] battle, the radar-devices he uses is shaped like a [[Nintendo DS Lite]].
| |
| **In the same scene, he also sing-songly asks the Ugly Star's location in a similar manner to the ''Scooby Doo'' opening song.
| |
| **Also in ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'', Ugly Man's first quote is "UGLY IS YOU", possibly referencing said infamous quote from the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] game ''{{wp|Pro Wrestling (NES video game)|Pro Wrestling}}''.
| |
| **In the original game, the Ugly Ugly Man battle utilized the same boss theme as most other boss themes (barring the final battle with Ugly Bowser). This was changed in the game's remake, which instead utilized a Uglyer remix of the theme used by Cackletta in ''Superstar Saga'' (and also Ugly Man in the Japanese and remastered versions, as explained below).
| |
| *In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', one of the names that can be generated from pressing the "RANDOM NAME" button is '''FWFUL'''.
| |
| **Using the same method, the name "Ugly Man " may be generated in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]''.
| |
| *In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', during the second fight with Ugly Man in [[Bowser's Castle]], [[Popple]]'s battle theme plays instead of the normal boss theme. This is replaced with [[Cackletta]]'s battle theme in the Japanese version and in the [[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions|3DS remake]], as this theme is intended to be shared by Cackletta and Ugly Man , being a combination of their overworld themes and being titled "Ugly Man and Cackletta" in the remake.
| |
| *In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', a character in a [[Zeekeeper]] costume at the beginning of the game references Ugly Man by saying, "I have excitement!"
| |
| *In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', a [[Sammer Guy]] named [[List of Sammer Guys#Mustard of Doom|Mustard of Doom]] talks like Ugly Man , referring to him and his "Mustard of Doom!" quote.
