Ultimate Mr. L, also called The Black Lightning, is an evil clone of Luigi created when Bowser invented a cloning machine, hoping to make an army of Bowsers. However, he ended up zapping Luigi, creating a new Mr. L with power over electricity and machinery. This creation became known a Ultimate Mr. L. His current whereabouts are unknown, but he has been rumored to be hiding out on the Super Mario Wiki, making edits to articles in the Super Paper Mario category and acting mild mannered and business-like on Talk Pages to avoid suspicion.

In the real world, Ultimate Mr. L is the name of a User on the Super Mario Wiki who is obsessed with Mario and hopes to contributes as much as he can. Ultimate Mr. L as a Mario villain doesn't actually exist, so don't bother searching for him. The real Ultimate Mr. L is a huge fan of the Mario franchise and enjoys recording information about it and making up his own games about Mario (even though he can't actually make them). He hopes to one day establish contact with Nintendo and ask them about his made-up games and his theories. He strongly (or maybe just stubbornly) believes that King Boo and Bowser are one and the same (there's a surprising amount of evidence) and that Bowser Jr. is actually a clone of Bowser, with the Koopalings being prototypes.

History

I have been obsessed with Mario since I was 6 years old. My earliest memory of him is watching my mom play Super Mario Bros. on Wii Virtual Console when I was 2 years old. Some of my favorite pastimes are playing Mario on any system and making up my own Mario games and typing them up, as well as typing up info about existing Mario games (I started that before I found the Super Mario Wiki). I found the Super Mario Wiki several years ago, but didn't visit it regularly for a while and didn't join until even later. I won't be taking friend requests because I like to have met someone in person, not just in Cyberspace. So if I turn down a friend request, don't take it personally. I also won't give out my real name, age, address, etc.

General Information

Appearance

I'd rather not tell you what I look like. Sorry, it's just that I grew up with the Golden Rule of "Never put your information out on the Internet."

Powers and Abilities

I have a very active mind, mostly used for thinking about Mario, books (mostly fantasy), the novel series I am writing, and such. I'm about average at most school subjects, except history.

Personality

I'm obsessed with Mario and very nerdy. Though Mario is my passion, there are other things I like. Basically, if I like something, I'm obsessed with it. I enjoy Metroid, Zelda and a few third-party games (specifically Portal and Undertale) for video games other than Mario. I read lots of books, including, but not limited to: Harry Potter, Wings of Fire, The Door Within, The Berinfell Prophecies, How to Train your Dragon and A Whole Nother Story. I like movies a lot as well. Some of my favorites are the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Lord of the Rings, PIXAR, etc. I'm also a Christian and hope to spread the word of Jesus Christ. I'm very weird. That's my signature. One of my goals is be as weird as humanly possible. Random Weirdness Initiate: LEGO refrigerator en la trampoline!

Super Mario Bros.

Great game, considering what Nintendo had to work with at the time. I've actually taken kind of a liking to the Bowser Impostors, though they could use a little more diversity when it comes to attacks. For example, some of them could maybe have shot heat-seeking fireballs. Another complaint is the small variety of items. I think of this game as kind of a prototype and Super Mario Bros. 3 is the real deal, since it was many steps up from this game. Power StarPower StarPower Star Bowser's horn emblem from Mario Kart 8

Now here is a game well worthy of praise. It introduced the Koopalings and a huge host of items (some still exclusive to it), not to mention some new moves and a map.

Not much of step up from Super Mario Bros. 3, but I still like it. The Koopalings' colors got very screwed up and Ludwig should have been fought last. Also, there could have been more differences between boss battles. I like the addition of a secret world and the Koopa Clown Car.

I love this game. It was time for Luigi to get a starring role. Stunning a ghost and sucking it up gives exhilaration and satisfaction I can't explain!

A lot of this game certainly seems to be geared more toward players of a higher skill level than myself (looking at you, "Secret of ___" levels), but I still enjoyed it. I've heard that F.L.U.D.D. is hit-or-miss, but I thought it was a great idea to give Mario an exclusive tool with new functions. The tough-as-nails platforming segments could have been toned down, but I liked the exploration-based segments. There were some very creative puzzles and a couple fun boss battles.

I wish Shadow Mario was just his own character instead of a Bowser Jr. alter ego. The reveal was wasted for those who hadn't seen Bowser Jr. before and Shadow Mario would have been far more interesting as character with a mysterious backstory.

Now here's an RPG I like. The battles in the Mario & Luigi series are more engaging and give me more of the feel that I'm fighting something. It keeps you on your toes. I have to pay close attention to which Bro. is being targeted or whether an enemy is going to try and trick me into jumping or something that will harm me. The plot starts out kind of goofy, but soon changes to a darker story. It's probably the best plot in the series. I HAVE FURY!

Super Paper Mario

This is my favorite Mario game and one of my favorite video games of all time. The plot has more depth and complexity than one expects from this franchise, with some shockingly dark themes. It holds some of my favorite boss battles despite the simplistic platformer combat. The characters are distinct and just so real, they really didn't need to give everyone such unique written voices. The soundtrack is masterfully composed, evoking all the right emotions for each scene be it quirky and upbeat (Gloam Valley), dramatic and climactic (Closing Battle), quiet and somber (Soft Light), or even demonic and unnerving (River Twygz Bed). The worldbuilding is so intricate that living exposition dumps were created to house all the extra backstory they wrote. The fact that Sticker Star is the future of Paper Mario instead of this style is inexcusable. Over the years, I've come to accept the problems with the gameplay, and even the story in some places. And yet I've never loved it any less. This game stands alone, with nothing else like it in practically any respect. Its anamolous nature is beautiful to me. I'll always love this flawed masterpice.

This is a great game. It's way too slow ofr the standard Smash mode to be fun, but it gave us Nintendo's Infinity War, the Subspace Emissary, which keeps me coming back.

Another NSMB game. I like them, but their kind of getting old at this point. Anyway...

I didn't think a game focusing on coins could be very fun. I was wrong. I like the power-ups in this game. Raccoon Mario's return was long awaited and the Gold Flower is very fun to use. The boss battles were fairly good, not the best, but not bad either. It seemed short. I made it to World Star-Castle in just a few days. Since the focus is coins, it's difficult to get a game over and, while the levels are slightly more difficult than the other NSMB games, it isn't enough to compensate. It was still very fun though, if not entirely fresh.

Frankly, I think it's good to throw a new spin on things when it comes to sequels so it isn't the same game over and over. *cough**cough*NSMB*cough*. Pretty much everything about this game was spot-on fun. There is only one problem: checkpoints (or lack thereof).

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team

While not as fun as Bowser's Inside Story (I miss playing as Bowser), Dream Team is still a good game. The Luiginary Works are fun, especially the Luiginoid Formation. Once again, there is are both 2D and 3D worlds, though the Dream World is far more engaging, with the overworld being little more than a map, except at some points.The game would be a lot better without the excessive tutorials. Having one tutorial per Luiginary Work is quite unnecessary.As for plot, not as good as Bowser's Inside Story, like most of this game, but still good. Antasma is a good villain and while I find a part of myself wishing Bowser was more of a goofy anti-hero, he still works well as a main antagonist. I like that the plot focuses on Luigi. I can't say how excited I was by the Luiginoid army or Giant Luigi. After all, what's better than more Luigi? Power StarPower StarPower StarPower Star Yoshi's horn emblem from Mario Kart 8

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam*

The Mario & Luigi games are going downhill at this point. The plot here isn't nearly as interesting as the last two games and I'm still wondering why the Marios and Luigi are thinking "Hey, the princesses are kidnapped! Let's rescue them!" and not "Hey, a bunch of paper copycats just randomly jumped out of a book! That's not good!" The gameplay remains quite engaging, however, with Paper Mario being a great addition. The overworld gameplay is pretty fun, as are the little missions, but I miss the jumping between 2D and 3D worlds from the last two games (the Paper universe seemed like such an obvious Dream World alternative). Really, the idea of Mario & Luigi crossing over with Paper Mario was a fun one, but it could have been executed so much better.

An amazing game, but it doesn't offer too much more than Wii. I like the connecting maps and boss battles. But the thing that I like most about this game is the final battle with Bowser. Finally, Mario fights Giant Bowser head-on instead of running away! Power StarPower StarPower StarPower Star Mario's horn emblem from Mario Kart 8

I liked this game. We were able to beat it pretty fast, but then there's a bunch of bonus worlds. However, I much prefer exploration/puzzle-based gameplay. I also feel like it should have had the Koopalings. The bosses it did have, though, were quite fun. Power StarPower StarPower StarArtwork of a Bronze Star from Super Mario Galaxy 2.

Really fun game, but still not as good as Wii. I like the anti-gravity and the new items, but it doesn't have nearly as many characters. I was very upset when I found out Bowser Jr, didn't appear at all. Power StarPower StarPower StarPower Star Toad's horn emblem from Mario Kart 8

I can't decide which is better this or Brawl. I'm not sure why there isn't a story mode. I like the new characters (Bowser Jr. is my signature character), but I notice that not everyone from Brawl returned. The name is a little weird. Kind of unimaginative and it doesn't go along with the other names (Melee, Brawl). Power StarPower StarPower StarPower Star Toad's horn emblem from Mario Kart 8

Some (or maybe a lot) were disappointed in this game, but I wasn't. It's hard to be disappointed when your expectations are low. After all, it's a Mario Party game. It's not going to be great. Bowser Party can be fun, but I can't help but feel underpowered as Team Mario. amiibo party is boring. We still have cars. Boss Battles should never consist of competing against other players. Seriously, no. Power StarPower StarArtwork of a Bronze Star from Super Mario Galaxy 2. Toad's horn emblem from Mario Kart 8

Finally! The game I've been waiting for! An official Mario level designer!!! But it's still not perfect so here we go:

There's not as many course elements as I would like. Ground should shake into slopes and Dry Bones should turn int Mechakoopas. The biggest thing I want is boss battles. More work goes into them than it should. Someone should be able to tap Bowser and bring up a menu similar to the Mystery Mushroom's which lists Bowser, Bowser Jr., Boom Boom and of course, the Koopalings.

Super Mario Odyssey

Nintendo has created an instant classic. This game is almost entirely perfect. The open world exploration is amazing, the graphics are stunning, the outfits and captures are genius. The story isn't much different from other Mario games, but it's done so well, I don't care. The soundtrack will be remembered right up there with 64 and Galaxy. The bosses are the game's weak point and the story is short, but the rest of the game is so good, that's easy to ignore.

I'll say this: this is, in every way, an improvement. The inclusion of Bowser Jr. and King Boo is quite welcome, as is the automatic DLC. The battle mode, of course, is the best part. But half of it is a different game, so it gets a star deducted. Power StarPower StarPower Star Toad's horn emblem from Mario Kart 8

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

The most ambitious video game crossover event ever just barely lives up to hype. The massive roster ensures that any player will be able to find a fighter that works for them and the fighters are more balanced than they've ever been, ensuring even low tier characters a chance at victory. I do miss custom characters, but with so many options, it's easy to overlook that. This has the absolute best Classic Mode in Smash history, with a different route for every character. I find myself wishing for a wider variety of bosses, however. I really like the ability to customize your own rulesets, something I have wished for my entire Smash career. Despite loathing World of Light initially, I grew to really like it when I looked past the lack of story. Still, I want the Subspace Emissary back!

Favorite Boss Battles

Considering how much I like Boss Battles, it's fitting to have this.

Boss Battle Image Notes
SMM-SMB3-Bowser.png

Bowser (Super Mario Bros. 3)

The final battle between Mario and Bowser, in Super Mario Bros. 3. Best boss battle of its era. More innovative than most, which is one of the things I look for in a battle. all the other battles were just jumping on the boss's head. Though I haven't played the actual battle, I did recreate it exactly in Super Mario Maker.
Bowser's model from Super Mario 64.

Bowser (Super Mario 64)

Mario fighting with Bowser. Really gives the feel of a one-on-one heroic showdown. Bowser has a wide variety of attacks, which is always more fun. Bowser's entrance in the original was more dramatic in the original than in Super Mario 64 DS. In the original, Bowser stomps in time with the music (which is awesome) as the camera pans up to his head and the camera bounces out when it gets there. In DS, he just walked up to Mario. In the original, there were four mines, but that was a little too difficult. In DS, there were eight which was effortless! The next Super Mario 64 should have six mines. That would be just the right level of easy and hard.
King Boo

King Boo (Super Mario 64 DS)

Mario encountering King Boo in the Big Boo Battle stage of Super Mario 64 DS Interesting battle. I like his ability to appear only in the mirror. It also interests me that no matter what player you are, you will always show up as Luigi in the mirror.

Kretin (Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story)

The battle with Kretin This battle keeps you on your toes. It's fun to figure out where the real Kretin is hiding and Beta Kretin's laser attack is fun to dodge.
The Dark Star's idle sprite.

Dark Star (Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story)

The battle with the Dark Star I like this fight because you have to use a special technique to beat the boss, rather than just attacking it over and over again.

Dark Bowser/Dark Star Core

Bowser versus the final boss, Dark Bowser. For one thing, Dark Bowser is awesome. For another thing, Fawful is awesome. For another, it's awesome the way they turned it into two battles in one! Finally, the music is awesome!
Fracktail

Fracktail (Super Paper Mario)

Fracktail battle. I like the concept of riding on a boss while attacking it.
Count Bleck in Super Paper Mario.

Count Bleck (Super Paper Mario)

Count Bleck fighting Mario. Normally, I go for bosses with a complex defeat strategy, but Count Bleck's wide variety of interesting attacks cannot be ignored. I like pretty much all he can throw at me. Plus, this is the largest boss arena in the game (Frackatil's doesn't count; he's huge) and the only one with platforms, so part of the challenge is just finding Bleck. This might just be more worthy of being a final battle than Super Dimentio.

Master Core, in its Master Giant form.

Master Core (Super Smash Bros. for Wii U)

Master Core in Master Fortresss form The most intense Nintendo boss ever, hands down! All of the best bosses have more than one phase, so six phases definitely cuts it! This is basically every category of boss in one. A giant humanoid, a quadrupedal monster, living weapons, and a copy of your character. But things get really trippy when it transforms into a freaking living castle! It's that final phase, only found on the highest difficulties, that makes this such a great boss. I was transported back to the Subspace Emissary for those precious minutes as I hunted down the weak spots of a literally heart-pounding boss with imminent death a moment away constantly. I lost count of how many tries it took me to beat this menace, but the satisfaction I felt once I finally did rivals the feeling of elation at the defeat of Sans in Undertale.

True Final Battle (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)

No Image Available Truly one of the most epic Nintendo finales ever. This sets the bar for three-stage bosses. I was treated to the platforming I had missed the entire game, as well as boss rush, a concept that is woefully rare, especially as part of a final confrontation. The actual boss fight is also interesting, as both bosses must be defeated with seconds of each other for victory to be achieved. It also has a different feel from good vs evil fights, instead being more like evil vs evil, with good just trying to break it up. Overall, one the best final battles I've had the privilege to participate in.

The Legend of Ultimate Mr. L

Mario & Luigi receive word that Bowser has created a cloning machine and plans on making an army of himself. They rush to Bowser's Castle, but the Koopa Troop buys Bowser time and by the time Mario & Luigi reach him, Bowser is already inside the machine, ready to clone. Not knowing what else to do, Luigi hurls himself at the machine. Bowser is catapulted out, the energy is directed to Luigi, lightning strikes the machine and the computer systems for it malfunction. Suddenly, there is a huge flash of light and a new Mr. L is created. Mario & Luigi attack him, but he reveals powers over electricity and machinery and easily dispatches them. He then runs off to do evil things. He goes on a thievery spree and Mario & Luigi always get there just after he leaves. They finally catch up to him at Shroom National Bank, but instead of running away, Ultimate Mr. L attacks them. He seems to have developed an inexplicable, yet extreme hatred for Luigi and, consequently, Mario. Fortunately, Mario & Luigi came prepared. They wear rubber, nullifying any chance of electrocution, and special magnets that deflect metal. They are able to beat Ultimate Mr. L, but he escapes into the internet.

Meanwhile, back at Bowser's Castle, Bowser and Bowser Jr. try to put back together the cloning machine to give Bowser Ultimate Mr. L's powers. Kamek tries to help out with dark magic. Eventually, they think they've done it and Bowser steps into the machine. Unfortunately, the machine creates a clone of Bowser with dark powers. This monster is known as Ultimate Dark Bowser. Bowser tries to get his creation to join the Koopa Troop, but Ultimate Dark Bowser is his own master. He escapes through a portal and Bowser realizes that he has just unleashed one of the most powerful villains ever.

Back at Peach's Castle, Mario & Luigi hear about a robot attacking Toad Town. It turns out to be Brobot L-Type 7.0, Ultimate Mr. L's robot. While it's main form is just like Brobot L-Type, it can also transform into a helicopter, tank or submarine. Mario & Luigi are unable to defeat it, but are saved by the unexpected interference of Bowser. Ultimate Mr. L, however, is pulled through a portal. Bowser tells them about Ultimate Dark Bowser and asks them to work with him to defeat him. Meanwhile, Ultimate Mr. L meets Ultimate Dark Bowser, who was the one who saved him. They agree to become partners in crime. Ultimate Mr. L deducts that the key to their success is the cloning machine. In its current state, it can give Ultimate Mr. L dark powers and then he can rebuild it to give Ultimate Dark Bowser technopathic abilities.

Mario, Luigi and Bowser decide to head to the castle too and find the dangerous duo waiting. Ultimate Mr. L is just finishing powering up with darkness. He emerges as Ultimate Evil L, the Dark Destructinator! He then betrays Ultimate Dark Bowser by destroying the machine and an epic battle ensues, between Mario & Luigi, Bowser, Ultimate Dark Bowser and Ultimate Evil L. When everyone realizes they cannot beat the Dark Destructinator, they team up against him. Mario, Bowser and Ultimate Dark Bowser keep him busy, while Luigi reconfigures the machine to destroy the clones. Ultimate Dark Bowser ends up gone and Ultimate Evil L's dark powers are sucked away, but he manages to escape into the internet. He is still at large and a team of Toads is searching random URLs for Ultimate Mr. L.
