Bowser Jr.'s Fiery Flotilla

"Wahaha! Made it this far, huh? I won't need my dad's help to finish you off! I got a big surprise for you!"

- Bowser Jr.

Bowser Jr.'s Fiery Flotilla is a galaxy appearing in Super Mario Galaxy 2. The galaxy seems to be orbiting the Mushroom World. The main feature of this galaxy is the introduction of lava and other fiery hazards. The boss found here is Gobblegut.

The starting planet is a fort-like area surrendered by lava. It has a gate with Bowser Jr.'s head on it that can be opened by using a lever to the door's left and several Bowser Jr. statues. Several enemies are encountered in this planet, such as Dry Bones, Astro Goombas, Thwomps, a Magikoopa is also seen protecting the Bowser Jr. gate. The Comet Medal can be found above the Thwomp. There is a shortcut to reach Gobblegut's planet faster if the player long jumps off the right tower on top of the castle.

Like the Starting Planet, this planet is surrounded by lava. It is medium-sized planet with a lot of Firebars. There are a couple of Goombas on here and a Magikoopa that spawns Round Goombas is also found on here. There is also a Tip Network on the planet.

After using the Launch Star leading from the Fiery Flotilla Planet, Mario ends up on this planet. Bowser Jr. appears in his Robot Cockpit, before summoning Gobblegut to fight Mario. The planet is made entirely of dirt.

Gobblegut's Aching Belly
To get the Star, Mario has to make his way to Gobblegut's Planet. To do so, he has to open the gate with Bowser Jr.'s face on it by flipping the lever found near it. The head then rotates and opens the gate. The Launch Star is found in the next area. After using the Launch Star, Mario will end up in the Rock Planet. He has to make his way to the another Launch Star by avoiding the Firebars. When using the Star, the plumber will find himself on Gobblegut's Planet. Bowser Jr. comes in a Megahammer Head and summoned Gobblegut to fight Mario. After the Dragon is defeated, Mario will be granted with a Star.

Fiery Flotilla Speed Run
The mission is to defeat Gobblegut in a time limit of two minutes. If Mario can't defeat Gobblegut in time, he won't earn the Star.

Green Star 1
This Green Star is located on the tower planet (the starting planet), in the north-west tower on the castle wall. To get on to the wall, Mario/Luigi must back-flip on top of the Thwomp, then long-jump towards the wall, wall-jump off it and spin on to it. From this point the Star will be visible and Mario/Luigi can make his way to it by jumping on the ridges of the wall.

Green Star 2
This one is located on the fire planet. To get it, long jump from where the launch star is. If done correctly, Mario should reach it before he touches the lava.
