Boo Crew: Difference between revisions

'''Boo Crews''' (previously known as '''Boo Buddy Swarms'''<ref>"'''''BOO BUDDY SWARM''' Hit the Flying Prize Block when it dips low in the air. The Boo Buddies above you will dive down when you jump up to collect the Fire Flower.''" - ''Nintendo Power Advance'' V.4, page 53.</ref>{{better source}}) are [[Boo]]s known for forming large groups to attack.

In ''[[Super Mario World]]'', they are found only in the [[Donut Ghost House]] and [[Forest Ghost House]]. They are usually transparent, which is when they are harmless, but periodically will turn opaque, which is when they are dangerous, to dive at [[Mario]]. They are indestructible and can only be avoided by the player.

These tiny ghosts will swoop at [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] very rarely, unless he throws an [[Yoshi Egg|egg]] at one of the members of the group. Then, all of the Boos will stop in their tracks and swoop at Yoshi. It is impossible to defeat all of the Boos, as more will just appear from off-screen. If Yoshi eats a [[Heart Fruit]] and does a [[Ground Pound]] near them, they will turn into [[Lucky Fruit]], much like [[Shy Guy]]s do. Unlike their ''Super Mario World'' counterparts, they do not turn transparent and can be destroyed.

Boo Buddy Swarms appear in the [[Ghost Valley 1|Ghost]] [[Ghost Valley 2|Valley]] [[Ghost Valley 3|courses]] in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'', [[Banshee Boardwalk]] in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', and [[Luigi's Mansion (DS)|Luigi's Mansion]] in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. However, the Boos do not hurt the players.

A Boo Buddy Swarm reappears in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''.

Boo Crews appear in ''[[Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition]]'' as allies with a Dark attribute and sub-attribute. Their skill is "Boo Trick", which lets the player be able to move any orbs anywhere for 6 seconds except in Score Attack, while their awoken skill, "Twin Target", raises their attack and damages two opponents for each attribute the player clears four orbs.
