Dry Bones

Line 367:

''Super Mario World'' is the first game to give Dry Bones an upright stance, which would be used in a multitude of subsequent installments. However, Dry Bones' ''Super Mario World'' design comes with exclusive elements not present in other games, such as white pupils, a small set of teeth, and a physically larger stature than the Koopa Troopas. Later games resize Dry Bones so they are the same height and shape as a Koopa Troopa. ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' once again depicts Dry Bones as a quadrupedal species; in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', the Dry Bones in Beanbean Kingdom retain their quadrupedal stature, though their Mushroom Kingdom relatives present in the ''Minion's Quest: The Search For Bowser'' side story are shown in an upright posture, thus suggesting that Dry Bones differ depending on the region. Both ''Super Mario Galaxy'' games depict Dry Bones as bipedal creatures who stand and move in hunched postures, a feature that is reused in ''Super Mario 3D Land'' and for [[Parabones]] in ''Super Mario 3D World'' and ''Super Mario Odyssey''. In the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, Dry Bones' trophy has a more realistic appearance than its species' main depiction. In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', Dry Bones' trophy has a more monotone appearance, as well as a darker color scheme and a detailed shell. In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'', its trophy has a more vibrant and cartoonish appearance, as well as much less detailing.

In the first three ''Paper Mario'' games, Dry Bones use their ''Super Mario World'' design, but with three tufts of hair, a feature that is only present in their ''Super Mario World'' artwork. Starting from ''Paper Mario: Sticker Star'', Dry Bones use their design from the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' series. Additionally, ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'' gives Dry Bones a pronounced paper outline.

Additionally, ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'' gives Dry Bones a pronounced paper outline.

In ''The Super Mario Bros. Movie'', Dry Bones have visible neck bones, their eye sockets are more expressive, and their pupils turn red (similar to ''Super Mario 3D Land'') and fiery when angered or hostile.
