'''Dark Bones''' are the most powerful type of [[Dry Bones]]. Instead of being pale gray with red shoes, they are indigo with purple shoes. Dark Bones are only found in the [[Palace of Shadow]] (where they are seen twice, once in a corridor and yet again in [[Riddle Tower]]) in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. [[Showstopper]], the special move, can actually destroy the Dark Bones.

It is unknown whether Dark Bones affiliate with [[Bowser]] or not, but they appear to be affiliated with the [[Shadow Queen]]. However, a certain Dark Bones's pre-battle speech seems to indicate that it has been ordered to keep the Shadow Queen from awakening.

A certain Dark Bones's pre-battle speech seems to indicate that it has been ordered to keep the Shadow Queen from awakening.


Dark Bones returns in ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' and ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'' as a playable character and alternate team player of [[Dry Bones]]. In the former, he is called '''Red Dry Bones''', and in the latter's challenge mode, he kidnaps [[Dixie Kong]] and battles [[Mario]] and Co. In these games, he wears red-tinted gloves and shoes, hence his name in the former. Unlike the other Dry Bones, he has a spike on his nose, as well has having several on the back of his shell.
In battle, Dark Bones behave like regular Dry Bones, having the same moves and stats except much higher HP. After being defeated in both areas they appear in, they cannot be fought again.


Dark Bones also make a cameo in ''[[Minecraft]]'', where the Wither Skeletons are reskinned as them in the Super Mario Mash-Up Pack.
In the Super Mario Mash-up in ''[[Minecraft]]'', the Wither Skeletons resemble Dark Bones.

===Field Tattle===
Outside of battle, [[Goombella]] can use [[Tattle]] on Dark Bones only in [[Palace of Shadow]] before Mario examines it.
*"''Those are some weird-colored bones. Very suspicious! ...But I feel like I've seen something like them before. I guess we're not gonna get much farther without checking them out, are we?''"
