Machine Made

The Machine Mades are (as their name implies) machine-made, mass-produced weapons prepared by Smithy for his takeover of Mushroom Kingdom during Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. They are gray palette-swaps of earlier enemies and bosses. Unlike normal boss fights, Mario and his party can run away from a Machine Made encounter. They are found in the Factory in between Count Down's area and Cloaker and Domino's area, and are sometimes moved around by treadmills on the overworld.

The Machine Mades are Axem Black, Axem Green, Axem Pink, Axem Red, Axem Yellow, Shyster, Bowyer, Mack, Yaridovich, and Drill Bit. The "Machine Made" Yaridovich is the only Machine Made that is mandatory to defeat in order to progress. The "Machine Made" Bowyer and "Machine Made" Shyster are the only Machine Mades to have higher HP than the enemies they are based on in addition to the other stats. Out of all the Machine Mades, the Drill Bit Machine Made is the only one that is not fought before. Jabit is later fought as one of the final opponents; the original Drill Bit appears but is never fought in the final game.

Trivia

 * In the English version, Dodo during his optional solo encounters has the same Psychopath thought as Axem Yellow.


 * Each Machine-Made fight (excluding the Shyster and Jabit) uses the boss battle music, even though they are encountered like regular enemies.
