Combat
This battle practices ground pounding and spinning. Major Burrows appears in the Gusty Garden Galaxy's level "The Dirty Tricks of Major Burrows" where he is a chasing a Star Rabbit around a large tree. At the start Major Burrows ignores Mario so Mario must Ground Pound somewhere near him so that he gets stunned. Then Mario must Star Spin Major Burrows and Major Burrows will lose a life. Major Burrows will then start chasing Mario instead of the Star Bunny and Mario must do the same thing again. Another difference is that Major Burrows will run away once he's been stunned, forcing Mario to chase him. For the final time, Major Burrows will grow red and chase Mario at a fast speed. If Major Burrows is stunned, he will go underground and come back fully restored, he will do this three times then he will run away just like he did the second time. When he is defeated, he releases a Power Star.

The player faces Major Burrows twice, with the second fight being part of the Daredevil Comet run.
