Elite Dry Bones

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.

Dry Bones can be battled in Teehee Valley. It is an upgraded version of the common Dry Bones found along Hoohoo Mountain, and unlike it's weaker cousin, has a shell and a purple tint all over it's body. This stronger variation had the same attack pattern as the weaker, but it's attacks were infused with poison and would poison the Brothers if an attack connected. Also, they could use a tackle attack indentical to a Troopea's tackle that could also hit other people just like Troopea's. Also, hammers and hand attacks only deal them one damage.

Prima Strategy Guides mistook the Japanese name Garon as the official English name and labeled the creature incorrectly in it's Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga strategy guide.
