President Koopa and the Devolution Gun.

The Devolution Gun is a powerful weapon in the Super Mario Bros. film. It was mainly used by President Koopa. The device could be used to mobily access the raw power of de-evolution into a gun. When it hits a victim, it will turned them into their ancestral species. It can transform humans into primates, having been designed specifically as weapons against the Mammalian dimension. Hitting a denizen of the Dinosaur dimension, however, will result in the person de-evolving into their ancestral species.

It is used in the movie by President Koopa, where he aims it at the Mario Bros., in order to stop Mario and Luigi from trying to save Daisy and thus halt his plans of conquest, although he wasn't able to fire at them. Koopa, upon the merging of the dimensions, used the Devolution gun on Mario, although it accidentially hit Anthony Scapelli, which he was nonetheless amused at. He later attempted to attack Mario with it again, although Mario knocked it out of his hands when using some fungus to shield himself from the Devolution rays of the gun. It is finally used by the Mario Bros. to devolve the dictatorial President Koopa into a Tyrannosaurus Rex (Koopa's ancestral species). They go even further to where he devolves into primordial ooze.

Trivia

  • The Devolution Gun seen in the movie was a Super Scope, except that it was repainted with metallic paint.
  • The Devolution Guns seem to serve a similar use as the magic wands of Super Mario Bros. 3 as they can turn people into animals and turned the King into fungus.
