Black Bowser: Difference between revisions

In the second phase of the battle, the black paint returns to Bowser and increases his size, making him more powerful. In Bowser's first attack, Huey notices that the black paint just comes back to Bowser and attacks cannot be blocked. As a result, Huey turns himself into a [[Battle Card (Paper Mario: Color Splash)|card]], allowing Mario to revert him to his 3D form. After this happens, Huey can contain the black paint blocked by Mario. However, he warns Mario that he can only withstand about ten of Bowser's attacks, telling him to make them count. In this phase of the battle, Black Bowser has a few extra attacks. The following attack he uses is determined by the amount of black paint he has pooled around him after Mario's turn. If he has no black paint, Bowser will slowly walk up to Mario and then breathe fire at him, similar to the first phase of the fight, except it deals more damage. If he has a small amount of black paint, he will summon a ball of black paint (about the size of Mario) and throw it at him for 48 damage. If he has a larger amount of black paint, he will turn it into a giant black paint hammer, which he uses to smash Mario for 72 damage. Finally, if he has a large amount of black paint, he will jump into his shell and start spinning in it with the black paint surrounding him as if it became a tornado. He will charge into Mario, dealing 96 damage. When he loses enough HP, he will become enraged and will start to execute his attacks much faster and become slightly more powerful. Now, his black paint ball deals 50 damage, his hammer deals 75 damage, and his shell deals 100 damage. Unlike in the first half, for example, the hammer takes a significant amount of time to charge up, but after suffering enough damage, Black Bowser's hammer swings much earlier than before. When he is almost defeated, he initiates his final, most powerful attack. In so doing, he uses up all his black paint and his own paint to fire a massive black paint ball at Mario. If Mario fails to defend against the attack, he takes 120 damage, which is more than half of his maximum of 200 HP, and the black paint returns to Bowser, restoring almost half of his HP. If Mario successfully defends against the attack and is not knocked out by it, he takes 60 damage (but his health won't drop below 1) and Bowser is left on his shell, helpless. Mario can then hit him with any attack to end the battle and emerge victorious.  

On a side note, if Mario lacks any offensive cards while Bowser is helpless on his shell, Huey gives him a Hammer card, claiming that he kept it for such an emergency. Additionally, if Huey absorbs too many of Bowser's attacks, he falls over and is knocked out, along with Mario, causing an instant [[Game Over]].
