History

Bubbles.gif

When Mario and Luigi finally arrive in Bubbles' shrine in Mother Chuckalola, they discover the old man himself telling jokes to the Chuckola Reserve, which reacts by bubbling and "laughing." Bubbles introduces himself as the "ultimate comedian," and confirms that the barrel of soda he was telling jokes to is indeed the Chuckola Reserve they seek, and that it is their to enjoy. When the Mario Bros. respond with silence, he explains that he has spent the past millennium telling jokes so that the Chuckola Reserve could mature and become the greatest soda of all.

Bubbles mentions that because of the soda's reputation, it tends to attract "rude guests." He then shows the Bros. the fate that awaits such thieves: the captured Popple and Rookie drop down from the ceiling, tied up and stuck in barrels. Popple then yells that the Chuckola Reserve is no ordinary beverage before the soda itself comes to life as the Chuckolator, and sends both him and Rookie flying while Bubbles marvels over its magnificence. Bubbles then reveals that his jokes have bred more "hidden soda power" over the millennium, and proceeds to send the Chuckolator after the Mario Bros., insisting that they "fully experience the texture, taste, and aroma" of his famous Reserve.

As the Mario Bros. fight the Chuckolator and eventually lower its HP, it takes on a smaller, weakened form. Before each of its turns in this stage, Bubbles may dance in and tell it a joke, restoring a random amount of health. The Chuckolator will resume its previous form if it regains enough HP this way.

When the Mario Bros. defeat the Chuckolator, it returns to its normal form, and Bubbles is so outraged at the defeat of his masterpiece that he jumps around the area, stomping the floor hard enough to collapse it and drop both the Reserve and the Mario Bros. into an underground cave. After this, Bubbles does not appear for the rest of the game, though he is mentioned by Boddle, his younger brother and the president of the Yoshi Fan Club.

Bubbles plays an additional role in the 3DS remake's Bowser's Minions mode, where he sends Bowser's minions down into a cave.
