Despite him guarding a Star Piece and having a weapon motif, Punchinello does not appear to have any affiliation with the [[Smithy Gang]]. Regular boss music plays when fighting Punchinello instead of the music played during fights with Smithy Gang bosses, there are no [[Machine Made]] replicas of Punchinello in the [[Factory (Super Mario RPG)|Factory]], and Punchinello is not mentioned among the fallen Smithy Gang members by the [[Clerk]]. Additionally, one of the wishes in [[Star Hill]] appears to be his. | Despite him guarding a Star Piece and having a weapon motif, Punchinello does not appear to have any affiliation with the [[Smithy Gang]].

In the remake's post-game, a stronger version of Punchinello titled '''Leveled-Up Punchinello''' can be fought. He is the second boss to be encountered, after [[Belome|Scratchy-Throat Belome]]. Before battle, he expresses his desire to defeat [[Bowser]] in order to become famous. After the fight, he upgrades Bowser's [[Chain Chomp]] into a [[Wonder Chomp]], and is offered a chance to rebuild [[Bowser's Castle|Bowser's Keep]], to which he obliges in order to gain a little fame. | |||

If Mario walks up in front of him, he shoves Mario away with his arms, sending Mario back into the other room. Thus Mario must be behind or near the side of Punchinello to start battling. | If Mario walks up in front of him, he shoves Mario away with his arms, sending Mario back into the other room.

After Punchinello is defeated, he summons a [[King Bomb]] which lands on him and eventually explodes, covering Mario and co. in soot. After cleaning themselves off, the heroes take the third Star Piece and venture deeper into the mines. | After Punchinello is defeated, he summons a [[King Bomb]] which lands on him and eventually explodes, covering Mario and co. in soot.

Punchinello only takes 1 or 2 damage from all attacks, and while he retains the use of Sand Storm, he can also use [[Flame Wall]], [[Flame Stone]] and [[Grinder (move)|Grinder]]. | |||
Like before, Punchinello summons Bob-ombs to aid him, with this variety being named "Strong Bob-ombs". Unique to these enemies is that, upon taking enough damage, they turn around to face Punchinello; at least one of them may also enter the battle in this turned-around state. When these Bob-ombs are facing Punchinello, they will explode on him instead of Mario and his party, dealing 80 damage. | |||
Once defeated, Punchinello summons another King Bomb, however this one walks towards him after being lit and explodes on him. However, he, as well as Mario and company, come out of the explosion unharmed. | |||
