 * ”Serve a witch? My dear Scarlette would be rather angry with me, I should think.“
 * ”Well, old boy, it was most agreeable that I had the chance to meet you. If it hadn't been for you, then my dear Scarlette would still gaze down on a broken Bob-omb. Let's meet again, Mario! And this time, let it be on the high seas, old boy!“

 * ”Normally, this is where I would deal with you and the homely traitor, Vivian, but something tells me that trying that alone might be unwise.“

 * ”Alright, my sort–of–lovelies! Marilyn! Freak–Sheet! This time, we take out Mario and his goon–squad for good!“
 * ”My queen! You have returned to us!“
 * ”Yes, my queen… I searched for a pure maiden that you might inhabit… And as I did, I spread the rumor of a great treasure… Then I led the fools who had gathered the Crystal Stars here to open the seal…“

Doopliss

 * “...Of course, you guys WON'T. No way you ninnies go away quietly, am I right?”
 * “Well, all right then, Slick. Fine. Yes. I turned the villagers into pigs. Big deal.”
 * “Well… You know, they're always so depressing and boring an dim–witted all the time... So instead of wallowing in gloom, I figured they might as well wallow in mud! HA! How brilliant is THAT? Now they're pigs, get it? Isn't that just sooo perfect? It's like irony, or something.”
 * “So...what? You got a problem with that? I guess you do. So let's play, Slick!”

 * “I will avenge my sister by taking your lives…and then gnawing on your bones!”
 * “GWAAAAH HA HA HA HA! My first fresh meat in ages… Allow me to take my time… And toy with you for awhile!”
 * “GWAAAAH HA HA HA HA! You are tough meat, my little tasty morsels! But how will you fare against THIS!!!”
 * “Gwuhhh… You are not the easy prey you appear to be… I would never be able to show my face again if I was bested by you whelps… So I will show you the true extent of my power!”
 * “MEGABREATH!!!”
 * “No… No… Is it true? Can I…expire?”

Goombella

 * “Hey! What do you want?!? Get away from me, freak!!!”
 * “Never! I don't have anything to say to you smelly creeps! Eww!”
 * “N–No! Stop right there, you weirdos! I'll scream! Really!”
 * “Whoa, whoa, WHOA, bucko! Whatcha got there?”
 * “Omigosh! Is… Isn't that a treasure map?! You HAVE to tell me where you got that!”
 * “Hey, what's your beef, pal? YEAH, I'M TALKING TO YOU!”
 * “Mario! You gotta wake up! That guy just stole half of your coins!”
 * “That is so lame! Ugh! I HATE this town!”
 * “Oh, it's, like, SO sweet that you boys think I'm cute! Seriously! Yeah, guys like you make me feel like TOTALLY BARFING! Now get out of our way!”
 * “That's a Goomba. Umm... Yeah, I'm one of those, in case you hadn't noticed. Ahem... It says here: "Goombas are underlings of underlings."  ...That is totally rude!”
 * “Hey, Mario. If you ever find yourself getting stuck and, like, wondering what to do, just use my Tattle ability, okay?”
 * “Are you like, the biggest floozy, or what?”
 * “I'm gonna Headbonk that burglar rat if she doesn't watch it!”
 * “Using a Crystal Star to look good? You're so totally vain! You're gonna pay for that!”
 * “Yeah, as if we aren't going to spank you for like, the tenth time!”
 * “Opening the door for you? What do you mean by THAT, you total hag?”
 * “Let's leave these doofuses, Mario…”
 * “So, this chump is the leader of those X–Nauts?”
 * “We aren't gonna let that happen!”
 * “Never, ever give up! That's the most important thing I've learned from you, Mario.”
 * “We beat the Shadow Queen, but there's tons of Rogueport lore we still don't get. So, my research with the professor goes on and on.”
 * “Guess what Koops wants to do, now? He wants to run for Mayor! Can you believe that? It might just be perfect for him, come to think of it. Still, I think Koopie Koo has her little finger wrapped around him.”
 * “Flurrie's back on stage in a big way, and crowd is totally ecstatic!”
 * “I have to get this right, or he'll get, like, SO mad at me…”
 * “Vivian's gone back to live with her sisters. Family IS important, after all. Now that the Shadow Queen's gone, I don't think Beldam's into evil. She's also promised me that she would never be mean to Vivian ever again. I think the three Sirens are gonna live pretty peacefully from now on. You should totally come visit her sometime.”
 * “Bobbery goes out to sea now everyday with Cortez. I think his soul has healed. I ran into him by accident on Keelhaul Key the other day, which was nice. He was so happy, I thought he was gonna explode on me for a second!”
 * “Guess whose favorite calculator is still computing? He says he really wants to see you and Peach again!”
 * “Oh, yeah. I almost forgot. During my travels, I heard a rumor that Grodus and Lord Crump are still alive. I guess that makes them pretty tenacious baddies, huh? But they've mellowed out a lot, just like Beldam has, and I don't expect anymore trouble. Plus, I hear that Grodus is just a head, so that really cuts down on any mischief making.”
 * “There's something that kinda weighed on me that I never got to express to you. You see, I… Well, maybe that's best kept secret.”
 * “That's Bow. Wait a second! Mario! Exactly WHAT is your relationship with her?!? Tell me NOW! Hee hee hee hee hee hee! Just kidding! I always wanted to say that. But you DID go on an adventure with her, right? Tell me sometime, OK?”

Grubba / Macho Grubba

 * “Hooo–weee! I guess that do change a thang or two, son!”
 * “When I was just a poor pup, I didn't give a Pokey's patoot for fancy, big–city ways!”

 * “Oh, just shut yer traps, now! I'll use MY Crystal Star however I dang please!”
 * “Check THIS out! HRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH! MUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSCLE–UP!”
 * “MAAAAAAAAAACHO GRUBBA!”
 * “Hoo–wee! I'm gonna smoosh you guys into guacamole an' snack on YER energy, too!”
 * “MAAAACHO! I'm a powerhouse now, you pesterin', li'l pieces of prairie piffle! So long's I have this here machine, my bod'll be rough, tough, an' ultrabuff!”
 * “Oh yeah! Keep it spicy! You know I love a good tussle, Gonzales! Keep on scrappin', son! 'Course, it ain't gonna do you much good in the end…”
 * “Not too shabby, Gonzales! You got showmanship, an' that's GOLD in this biz! But this here battle's just gettin' started! It's time I showed you some real moves! Back in the day, I had so many rump–kickin' moves, they had to make some illegal!”
 * ''“It ain't finished yet, Gonzales!!! Ain't over 'til it's over! That's way it is in combat sports, son! But lemme just tell YOU somethin'… Fortune's gonna smile on ME in the end, punk!”'

 * “…No, wait a second. I can't brag about getting beaten over 10 measly coins… That's pathetic! Crud!!!”

Hooktail

 * “Who dares approach me?!?”
 * “Are you friends of the strange–garbed one who came earlier?”
 * “I didn't expect anyone to come here to steal the treasure I protect. Such rashness.”
 * “You don't appear tasty, but I guess you'll make a good snack, and bottoms of your feet smell like they would make good spices to go with some sauces!”
 * “What I'll do is saute you to crispy goodness, and gobble you down… HEADFIRST!”
 * “Snacktime, my little appetizers! But which one of you morsels should I taste first?”
 * “W–What is that sound? It sounds like an, errp…! Cricket! H–How did you know? S–Stop that! Just… hearing one chirp makes me feel woozy…”

Ishnail

 * “What's that? You wanna know how to meet that lying, stealing, jerky–for–brains, Don Pianta?”
 * “Real thieves like us end up poor as dirty, never catchin' a break 'cause of that guy!”
 * “Fine, Mr. Insensitive Jerk, but it's gonna cost you 64 coins.”
 * “YESSS! I mean, good call.”
 * “Hey, you! That was amazin'! I can't believe how you cleared out that darkness!”

 * “Well, Champ, tell us about your mind–set! After all, today's challenger is… The Great Gonzales, the only man to ever wrestle the belt away from you!”

 * “He shattered his own records, one after anohter! How does THAT strike you?”
 * “Big words from the champ! And now, the challenger, who needs no introduction!”

 * “Of course, if you lose, you'll have to drop back down into the major league…”
 * “Well then, I'm rather busy, as usual, so you'll have to excuse me.”
 * “I need to work out a plan to bring Rawk Hawk back. That guy really draws crowds!”
 * “Have a nice day, Gonzales.”
 * “Please, Mr. Gonzales, I'm very busy these days. Fight promotion is not easy!”
 * “Please see yourself out. And have a nice day!”
 * “Thank you, Great Gonzales...No, Thank you, MARIO...You're a true champion.”
 * “Huh? Who am I, you ask? Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm! You don't know? I'm someone you know quite well, actually. When I go outside the arena, I like to cut loose and shed my other personality...”

Kammy Koopa

 * “Lord Bowser, please be patient with your poor servant.”
 * “It is my displeasure to report that Mario, that scum, is off to a place called Rogueport.”
 * “Two tickets! One great and evil king, and one sweet, young thing!”
 * “What did you say, you impudent little cheapskate!?”
 * “Now my derigible deluxe brown–bag Kammy lunch will go to waste!”
 * “Oh, my yummerly! The hot dogs!”
 * “Why, even at my age, I was shaking what my mama gave me!”
 * “Lord Bowser… is that a 'no'?”
 * “Hey, you! Suspicious guy! You know something about the Crystal Stars?”
 * “Koopa Clan, form up!”
 * “So, what's it going to be, tough guy?”
 * “The fact that we keep being out–manuevered is disturbing. Where could Mario and his brother be heading?”
 * “Mweh heh heh heh! Mario, you sniveling bug! This is IT for you!”
 * “Forgive me, Lord Bowser! I have nothing left…”

Koops

 * “OH, PLEASE TAKE ME WITH YOU TO FIGHT HOOKTAIL! PLEASE! I'M BEGGING YOU!”
 * “The rumors about this place were all true… This place is TERRIFYING…”
 * “'To my son, Kolorado'?!? Not 'Koops'?!? Whoops… I guess this isn't my father after all.”
 * “I wonder what her story is. I bet it's an exciting one, full of romance…”
 * “'X–Nauts'? What the heck are those? They sound like tissues to the extreme, or something.”
 * “Let's leave these wimps, Mario…”
 * “Mario, thanks to you, I've gained courage and inner strength, and I've grown closer to my dad. I think I like myself more since I've known you. It's all so hard to put into words. Um…”
 * “Yikes! What a grump!”
 * “Ummm… OK, we can do this!”

Lady Bow

 * “It IS you, isn't it, Mario? Well, it's been quite a while, hasn't it?”
 * “I've come here with Bootler, yes, a little vacation to Poshley Sanctum. I hadn't left the mansion in ages. I figured it was time to turn some heads on the road!”
 * “GWAH HEE HA!”
 * “But what a nice surprise to see you! Feel free to be overwhelmed by my beauty.”

Lord Crump

 * ''“Oh, come off it, you airhead! I know it's tough for you, but don't play dumb with me!”
 * ''“I've seen you walking around town asking for information about the Crystal Stars. Well, now I'm doing the asking, so be a good girl and tell us what you know. Right. NOW!”
 * ''“I suppose it wouldn't be right if a sassy little lass like you met with an untimely demise…”
 * ''“Buh! Buh! Buh huh huh! Boys, we're taking this firebrand back to our fortress!”
 * “I knew it was brilliant, but seeing you fall for it REALLY gives me a warm fuzzy!”
 * “What?!? Are you you nuts? Move it, you old geezer!”
 * “Whoa What's your problem, Gramma? You got an ear hair tickling your brain, or what?”
 * “You hotheaded old coot! You dare defy me? I could shine my boots with you!”
 * “Buh! Buh huh huh!”
 * “You guys are nuts, you know that? Oh, well. I guess I'd better shut off this timer.”
 * “OK, you pests! One pummeling, coming up…with extra fists! Metal fists, that is!”

 * “Bleeeeee–harrrrgh… This could be the end…”
 * “Buh! Bu–AAAAAARGH! No! Magnus von Grapple! How we could lose?!?”
 * “Hurff… Hurfff… Hurffff… I'll remember this, losers!”
 * “Buh! Buh! Buh huh huh huh huh! I've got some ammo to spare! How's THAT for boom–bassa–boom?!?”
 * “I'll sink that ratty old ghost ship to the bottom of the ocean!”
 * “I'm gonna turn you guys into wee seeds… Wait, that's not right. I'll turn you into SEAWEED! Buh huh! Enjoy!”
 * ”I'm down, but no WAY I'm out!“
 * ”MAN, THIS IS GETTING OLD! How could I lose…again?!? I HATE LOSING! Now I gotta think of another excuse for Grodus! Grrrrrrr! And with that…pow! I'm gone!“
 * ”I've been waiting for you! Oh, MAN, have I been waiting! And I HAAAAAAAATE waiting!“
 * ”Buh huh! I'll TELL you what it means! I used the Crystal Star to lure you here… So that I could take all of YOUR Crystal Stars! How brilliant is THAT, huh?”
 * “And wanna know the best part? Your little Peachy girl isn't even here anymore!”
 * “BUH! BUH! BUH! BUH! BUH! Like I'd tell you the plan! That's novice–villain style! No, I won't be doing anything like that. Sorry, really, guys…”
 * So… ready for showtime? You guys are gonna be the perfect workout for… Magnus Von Grapple 2.0!“
 * ”I hope you're up to the challenge…because this thing is raw horsepower, kiddies!!!“

 * ''”You go, Bro!“

Madame Flurrie

 * ”…Perhaps if I grabbed you and gave you a little sugar?“
 * ”Did you really think we'd let a wretch like you escape? I DO believe you will be handing over that Crystal Star and promptly exiting this tree!“
 * ”Why, that was no fuss whatsoever!“
 * ”Here we go, darling! Time to shine!“
 * ”Aww, you wish to accompany us, you adorable little thing?“
 * ”You, Mr. Proprietor! Would you allow us to free this poor soul?“
 * ”Why, that voice belongs to Grubba!“
 * ”You shut your trap, sir! You drained the life from those poor souls!“
 * ”Using innocent fighters and a Crystal Star just to improve your looks? You're despicable.“
 * ”So, our mysterious X…“
 * ”'Big deal'? You foul boor! What ever would possess you to do something so mean?“
 * "Oh, mercy! Was that it? This fellow was so easy! I was rather expecting more. Well, I suppose we got the Crystal Star, so let's leave immediately, hmm?"
 * ”How could I mistake my dear Mario for another? Silly Flurrie!“
 * ”Let's leave these louts, Mario…“
 * ”So, this gentlemen is the leader of those X–Nauts?“
 * ”So, that last Crystal Star we found on the Moon… NO! What have we done?“
 * ”Mario, do be careful, dear! This fellow looks like he means business!“
 * ”We shan't let that happen!“
 * ”Mario, what shall we do, darling? We cannot bow down to her!“
 * ”Now that's just seneless… Are we to betray all of those who believed in us?“
 * ”Time to pay for all of your ills!“
 * ”My dear, dear, Mario. I am ready to make my comeback in the theatre, now! I've found so many things on this journey that I could only express on stage. Please do come to see me once we've finished rehearsing. And bring Peach, too, dear!“

Marilyn

 * ”Guh! Guhhhhh?“
 * ”The Three…“''

Mario

 * ”I can take you!“
 * ”Yer darn bloopin'!“
 * ”Keep your coins, fiend!“
 * ”Keep it, you cad!“
 * ”That's disgusting!“
 * ”Guess again, nerd!“
 * ”Forget you, pal!“
 * "No way, sob sister!"
 * ”Darn skippy!“
 * ”Let there be hot dogs!“
 * ”No. Jumping eggs bug me.“
 * ”Spare me the prologue, and just curse me, already.“
 * ”Call me Blanket P.I.!“
 * ”Da. I mean, YES!“
 * ”Nyet. I mean, NO!“
 * ”Challenge this chump!“
 * ”Refuse this witch!“
 * ”Sure, kid!“
 * ”Sorry, too busy!“

Ms. Mowz

 * ”Who is this handsome piece of cheese?“
 * ”Opening the door for you? What do you mean by THAT, you awful thing?“
 * ''”Let's leave these idiots, Mario…“
 * “Mario is no pawn of evil! Ridiculous!”
 * “Why are we even talking about this? NEVER!”
 * “It is time for us to part, my little cheese hunk. But I will not say farewell, because you're welcome here anytime you please, sweetie! Until then… adieu.”
 * “You look a bit weak to be fighting us… Mmm hmm hmm!”

Parakarry

 * “Mail call!”

Parrot

 * "Skrawk? What happened to those weirdos who were just here? Ah, whatever... It was almost nice to have some company... I mean, no matter how important it is that no one know[s] his real name... Locking me up in here just because I know it... And making me guard the name's stupid missing letter... No way to treat a parrot! I REALLY want a cracker... Doopliss, you're a big meanie. When's feeding time, huh?"
 * "Skra-WAAAAAAAAAARK?!? Uh... Pretty bird! Pretty bird!"
 * "Man, am I tired of this stupid parrot babble act... It's so demeaning. And guarding this dumb letter here... I should report that Doopliss to the proper authorities...unless he gives me a cracker."
 * "Shine get! Shine get!"

Pennington

 * “Rudimentary, my dear Luigi!”
 * “No need for introductions. I know all about the famous Luigi!”
 * “We could have questioned him about all that Beldam business…”
 * “M–Mario?? G–Gonzales?? Not… L–Luigi??”
 * “Luigi… Er, no, rather… I mean M–Mario… How are you, dear boy?”

Princess Peach

 * ''“I can't believe I got kidnapped…again.”
 * ''“You X–Jerks kidnapped me like common Koopas!”
 * ''“ ' Comprehend ' Love? Love's not something you comprehend, TEC. You feel it.”
 * “Grodus… Wait, he's that awful, dome–headed thing who interrogated me, right?”
 * “You inhuman beast! How could you?”
 * “Where am I?”
 * “MARIO!”
 * “Mario… I'm so sorry. Sending you that map… caused all this trouble, didn't it…”
 * “Who knew all this would happen?”
 * “I don't know how to thank you, but know that the entire world is in your debt!”

Puni Elder

 * “'OLD GEEZER'?!? Where do you get off, talking like that? You have no respect, brat! Don't think my age has anything to do with my might! Elder power activate!”
 * “Ooh! What a time for my stupid back to start acting up!”
 * “Oh, that little Punio!!! He's always, ALWAYS so darned squishy–washy!”

Punio

 * “More nagging by the old hag… When will it ever stop?”

Rawk Hawk

 * “Har har har har har!”
 * “Feel the RAAAAAWWWK…”
 * “Rawk out, Great Gonzales!!! RAAAAAAAAAAAAWK! Listen to me, Gonzales! Anybody who's beat me is not ALLOWED to lose!!!”
 * “That's all ancient history! There's only one true champ, and that guy is Rawk Hawk!”
 * “One of us is walking out of here with the belt, and the other one's getting RAWKED!”
 * “Hey, shut your trap or this Gonzales won't be the only one feeling the RAAAAWK!”
 * “I'm the champ, end of story! I'm a legend! And this legend is about to RAWK that dude!”
 * “Harharharharharhar! Time for you to meet the new, improved Rawk Hawk!”
 * “Feel the horror of a world–class RAAAAAWWWKING!”
 * “No! I don't believe this! I… Am I actually gonna get Rawked AGAIN?”

Sir Grodus

 * "Well, well, my pet... Isn't about time you told us where the map is?"
 * “Princess Peach. You will speak when spoken to.”
 * "There's no use trying to hide it, silly girl. We know you had the map. We KNOW this."
 * "It would be in your best interest to be absolutely honest with us. We X-Nauts aren't all rainbows and lollipops. I could assure you, we could be quite nasty."
 * "X-Naut! I summon you!"
 * "Shut up. Go get the Shadow Sirens over here."
 * “I don't care how you planned to end that sentence, fool. Go get them. Now.”
 * "Still your tongue, Beldam. We would've had it if you had snatched her earlier. And since you missed your chance, some poor fool named Mario has the map."
 * "Indeed, that is YOUR duty."
 * “Yes, what is it? Speak!”
 * “Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm? There is something wrong with your voice, X–Naut.”
 * “Perhaps I have a throat lozenge… No. Well, never mind.”
 * “Oh, and about Princess Peach? I have no interest in what that woman has to say. Just keep her locked in the holding room.”
 * “But do not EVER treat her roughly. You understand? Tell the others as well.”
 * “That's none of your business! Don't forget your place, you impudent worm! Concentrate on getting the legendary treasure! That is all I require of you.”
 * “We X–Nauts needs that treasure to conquer the world! Don't forget it!”
 * “What are you blathering about now?”
 * “Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm… Something IS odd about you…”
 * “Beldam… Tell me, what good are you? You STILL haven't taken care of this Mario character?”
 * "You DO realize that we X-Nauts must open the door first, do you not?"
 * “I trust your words, though I rapidly lose my patience.”
 * “Yes… I, Grodus, will build a new world! A perfect, ideal world… made by me, about me, and FOR me! GAAACK ACK ACK ACK ACK!”
 * “You blew it again, Lord Crump. You sicken me.”
 * “Stop talking, Lord Crump. You just stand by until my next order. And Lord Crump? Think of this as your last chance. Understand?”
 * “Then leave.”
 * “What is the matter with you idiots? Falling for a fake Crystal Star? That's asinine!”
 * "What is it, fool?!?"
 * "What?!? Tell me you're joking! Are you absolutely sure?!? Speak, soldier!"
 * "Hrrrrrrggh... TREASON!"
 * "Hold it right there, Princess Peach!"
 * “In my most paranoid moments, I never thought my own computer would betray me.”
 * “Gaaack ack ack ack ack! Only one thing to do with a malfunctioning computer! Cut the circuit and delete all the programs and data that caused that malfunction!”
 * “Gaaack ack ack ack! Too bad, Princess Peach. TEC is no longer with us.”
 * “Princess Peach…just stop it. This is no time to be worrying about a computer. We have some very important things for you to do now… Yes, VERY important… Gaaack ack ack ack!”
 * “We finally meet, Mario.”
 * “I've been looking forward to this, I must admit.”
 * “Yes…correct!!! I am the supreme leader of the secret society of X–Nauts! I am Grodus!”
 * “But I'm really getting ahead of myself. I really must express my thanks to you first…”
 * “And do you know why? You have gathered together all of the Crystal Stars I was seeking.”
 * “Gaaack ack ack ack ack! You just realize now, do you?”
 * “Yes, instead of taking the few Crystal Stars you fools had bumbled into…”
 * “It was far easier to let you find them all and open the Thousand–Year Door for me…”
 * “How kind of you to bring them here to me!”
 * “All I had to do was entrust the last Crystal Star to my least competent underling!”
 * “I don't suppose Crump had any idea of my plan though. Gaaack ack ack ack ack!”
 * “So, whether he beat you or lost to you…”
 * “The Crystal Stars would be together and mine either way! Pure genius!”
 * “Now, I thought the Shadow Sirens would do a little more to slow your progress…”
 * “But it appears they are so useless that even this small task was beyond them…”
 * “No matter… Now I get the pleasure of sending you to oblivion!”
 * “Once you fools are gone, no one will stand in my way! Grodus will rule the world!”
 * ''“Now, come!
 * ”Meet your ends, you meddlesome fools! You will know my power!“
 * ”So, you have the mettle to push me this far… But no more!“
 * ”Argh! You will not stop me! Take this!“
 * ”Guh! Fools!“
 * ”Unhh… No…“
 * ”Uuuuuuunhh… You are more than you seem… But this is not finished. I saw even this possibility.“
 * ”Watch THIS!“
 * ”Move one step, and she will breathe no more!!!“
 * ”Now try THIS!!!“
 * ”Gaaack ack ack ack ack! Now! AGAIN!“
 * ”Stop your blubbering! This is it! Meet your end!!“
 * ”WORM! You would dare defy me?!? Do you NOT care for the life of your pitiful princess?“
 * ”WH–WHAT?!?“
 * ”Too bad for you, Mario! You're too late!“
 * ”Gaack ack ack! Look well! In the coffin behind me sleeps the leagendary treasure!“
 * ”This tomb holds the soul of that ancient demon, the wielder of destruction…“
 * ”It will possess Peach's body and bring life to the most powerful witch in millenia!“
 * ”Gaaaack ack ack ack ack! With the power of the demon, I will rule this pathetic world!“
 * ”The time has come at last! The world will be mine!!“
 * ”Now, arise! Arrise! My Shadow Queen!“
 * ”It is I, my Shadow Queen!“
 * ”It is here! This girl who lies before you!“
 * ”Yes, my glorious witch queen… Destroy these impudent fools!“
 * ”Huh? What do you mean?!? I thought you were bound to obey the one who woke you!“
 * ”Enough of this prattle! Do as I say!!! NOW! Or I will send you back to the depths…“

Shadow Queen

 * ''”Who… has called me back?“
 * ''”You… Very well. Where is the vessel?“
 * ''”Ah, yes… A fine vessel she is. Now…“
 * ''”Muh huh huh huh! Witness my rebirth…“
 * ''”Who are you that would command me? What sort of being are you?“
 * ''”You would do well to learn your proper place, slave. No one commands me.“
 * ”Ah, Beldam… What ages have passed? I'll take it that you're the one truly responsible for bringing me back, yes?“
 * ”Muh huh huh… Very good. You have fulfilled your duties admirably.“
 * ”But who are these… beings who stand before me? They do not possess power, but they may be of some use. If you will become my faithful servants, then I will not harm you.“
 * ''”Then, you wretched fools… you will learn the error of your ways!“
 * ”I will ask you one last time… Will you serve me? If so, then I will forgive you for this…“
 * ''”What are these vile voices?“
 * ”You wretched little girl! You would disobey me?!?“
 * ”Very cunning, princess! But you will not undo me!!! Know me as your queen!“
 * ”How is it possible that you can injure me?!?“
 * ”Enough! This ends now!“
 * ”Foooooooools!“
 * ”Muh huh huh… You do not know what you have done…“
 * ”Th–This cannot be! I can't be beaten by lesser beings such as these…! I've just… been reborn into this world! I cannot… I MUST not…! AAAAAIIIIYYYYEEE!!!“

TEC-XX

 * "Sir Grodus is not awful. He is marvelous."
 * "No. You are mistaken. I am the world's best and only perfect computer."
 * "Goodnight, Princess Peach."
 * "Princess Peach... I will protect you."
 * "Princess Peach, please escape from this place as quickly as possible."
 * "Something terrible is about to... No, I will not say. But I have found out everything about Sir Grodus's plans."
 * "I am the base's computer. No one will know of your escape if I keep silent."
 * "Sir Grodus, I..."
 * "There is no malfunction. I am normal."
 * "You are...Mario, right? It is... pleasant... to meet you..."
 * "You do know... that Princess Peach is not here, do you not?"
 * "She is with Grodus in the Palace of Shadow..."
 * "Please... s-save her..."
 * "..........................I.....................................L.....................................o...............................v................................e...............................y...................................o.........................u................... ................... ... . .......... ......... ....... .."

The Dark Gatekeeper

 * ”Foolish mortals… I will drag you through the gate to the netherworld!“

The Koopinator

 * ”I have waited, Gonzales. I knew I would face you in the ring again one day.“
 * ”You. Finally, I get a piece of you. Finally, we'll see who's truly stronger.“

Thwomp

 * ”No… NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! You beat my cute little underlings! How COULD you? Jerk! Just take this and go! And if you ever wonder, know that I HAAAAAAAAATE YOU!“

Toadsworth

 * ''”Just drop on INN! Ho ho!“

Vivian

 * ”…Shadow Beauties!“
 * "Oh, you're horrid..."
 * "Your name was stolen? I see... Well, I guess that happens from time to time..."
 * ”Hmm hmm hmm! We heard you, little birdie! Doopliss! So, THAT'S his name!“
 * ”I'm sorry, Sis, but this Mario is the only one who's ever been kind to me…“
 * ”Mario! I'm fighting by your side from now on! I've made my choice… and I'm not turning back!“
 * “You're the one who's going to suffer, Crump! No matter how many times we do this!”
 * “I'm with Mario all the way! Today, Sis, I'M going to punish YOU! You hear me?!?”
 * “I'm sorry, Sis…”
 * “This room makes me feel…bad. …But it seems familiar.”
 * “What IS this chamber?”
 * “Gro… Grodus…”
 * “No! So the last Crystal Star we found on the moon… We've played into their hand!”
 * “Be careful, Mario!”
 * “We won't let that happen!”
 * "What's happening?!?"
 * "Possess Peach?!?"
 * "P-Peach..."
 * "M-Mario... I don't understand..."
 * "Mario... I promised to follow you! I believe in you!"
 * "Mario, I will follow you to the end, I swear it! I feel bad for the princess, but that queen must fall before us! And when she does, you and I can... Well, anyway, let's take this fight to her!"
 * “Can you hear them, Mario? So many voices…”
 * “I… I feel completely revitalized!”
 * “Time to suffer, Queen!”
 * “Mario, I think I've grown to lo–, I mean, nevermind. I sure do think you and Peach make a nice couple.”
 * “I… I'll never forget my time traveling with you. So… don't forget about me, either.”
 * “Wow! What a grouch!”
 * “You're about to have a really terrible experience!”
 * “Looks like we overdid it a little bit… Are they OK?”
 * “Wow, what a spectacle! I had no idea pro fights were this loud and intense!”
 * “Let's head up!”
 * “Well, here we go, Mario. A match against the champ! Let's get this over with!”

X-Nauts

 * “You rang, dude? I mean, sir? You rang, Sir Grodus, dude? Grodus? Sir Grodus, sir?”
 * “Lord Crump summons us!”
 * “Retreat!”
 * “Run away!”
 * “Wait up!”
 * "No joke, dude. I mean, affirmative, Sir Dude. That is... I'm positive, sir!"

Yoshi

 * “Shut up! You make me sick!”
 * “Why'd you drain King K and Bandy Andy, huh?!?”
 * “You are such a scumbag! You're gonna pay for using a Crystal Star like that!”
 * “Yow! Grubba beefed up!”
 * “Let's rock, Gonzales! I'm ready to chew this dude up and spit him out!”
 * "Whoa, come on! THIS is the monster the mayor was freaking out about?"
 * "'Big deal'?!? You stink, Mister! Why'd you wanna turn them into pigs, anyway?"
 * “So, who's this girl, huh? Isn't she one of the Shadow Sirens you guys mentioned? But why would Gonzales pair up with one of those creeps?”
 * “It's stupid cold!”
 * “Mario, check that out!”
 * “Opening the door for you? What's THAT supposed to mean, you purple witch?”
 * “Let's leave these wusses, Gonzales…”
 * “So, this loser is the leader of those X-Nauts?”
 * “So, that last Crystal Star we got on the Moon… NO! We're IDIOTS!”
 * “Not gonna happen, pal!”
 * “Gonzales serves nobody! Right?”
 * “Gonzales, we're not REAL champs, unless we beat this evil lady!”
 * “Can you hear them, Gonzales? So many voices…”
 * “Gonzales, LOOK!!!”
 * “Whoa, what IS this? I feel insanely pumped up and full of energy all of a sudden!”
 * “Time for payback!”
 * "Gonzales… No, wait. I've gotta stop doing that. It's MARIO, right? Well, you'll always be Gonzales to me, man! Because I was born in the Glitz Pit, and the Great Gonzales is, and always will be, the champ. So, let's meet again, Gonzales! I mean it, man!“
 * ”Lemme at 'em! Yeah! Bring it! You ready for a beating?“
 * ”Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! How'd that floor taste?“
