'''Dry Bones''' is an enemy in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. In English, it shares its name with the [[Dry Bones]] species it is based on, but was named differently in other languages, such as ''Garon'' in Japanese. [[Prima Games|Prima]] Strategy Guides incorrectly used '''Garon''' as the enemy's English name in its ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' strategy guide.

These Dry Bones can be battled in [[Teehee Valley]]; they are an upgraded version of the common Dry Bones found along [[Hoohoo Mountain]] and, unlike their weaker cousins, have purple shells and a purple tint all over their body. This stronger variation has the same attack pattern as the weaker, but its attacks are infused with [[poison (status effect)|poison]] and will poison the Brothers if an attack connects; its shell also reduces damage from any attack that isn't a jump to one. Furthermore, they can use the [[Troopea]]'s tackle attack, which can be used to deflect its shell back at other enemies in the same way.

Latest appearance Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions (2017)
Variant of Dry Bones

The Elite Dry Bones is an enemy that appears in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and its remake, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions. It appears in Teehee Valley on the path to Popple's hideout, and is the stronger counterpart to the common Dry Bones found along Hoohoo Mountain. They share a similar appearance, with the addition of shells and a slightly purple tint all over their body.

In the original English version of the game, it was simply called Dry Bones; it was named differently in other languages, such as Garon in Japanese, which was also the name used by Prima Games.[1] The remake gives the Elite Dry Bones its current name.

Battle[edit]

Elite Dry Bones use the same head-tossing attack as their counterparts, dealing more damage and possibly poisoning the Mario Bros. if it connects. Its shell also reduces damage from any non-jump attacks to one; they can also use the Troopea's tackle attack, which can still be countered by jumping and used to deflect its shell back at other enemies.
