1) Introduction
This is a FAQ for Super Paper Mario. This FAQ will cover all Bosses
and even the 3 optional ones. It will even include strategies on how
to kill the bosses and what they'll do. If you have a strategy that
you think is better then mine, contact me and I'll include it. With
credits to you of course! OK well lets get started!

2)Story Line Bosses
These are all the Bosses included in the story line!

2.1) Chapter 1-3 Mini-Boss: O'Chunks (1st Encounter)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: O'Chunks

Chapter Name: The Sands of Yold

HP: 20

Attacks: Jump; Ground Pound; Grab and Throw

Strategy:
O'Chunks is an easy guy! He'll just try to ground pound you into the
sand, and occasionally grab you and throw you around the screen. To
beat him, use Thoreau to grab him and throw him. When you throw him
he'll be dizzy for a little while. When he's dizzy jump on his head,
twice if you can! Do that a couple times and he'll be down in no
time.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.2) Chapter 1-4 Chapter Boss: Fracktail

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: Fracktail

Chapter Name: Monster of the Ruins

HP: 25

Attacks: Tackle

Strategy:
Fracktail is easy considering he has no attacks, except he has
monsters on his back. The most he can do to hurt you is hitting you
while trying to jump on him. To beat him, when he tries to run in to
you, flip to 3-D and jump on his back. When your on his back and in
the air, use Thoreau to grab the enemies and throw them at the ball
on his Antenna. After you hit the ball three times he'll start to go
in circles in the air. While slidding down his back, jump off his
tail and on to his head. So that way you don't have to go on the
ground and jump back on him. Do that three more times and he should
be dead.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.3) Chapter 2-4 Chapter Boss: Mimi (First Encounter)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: Mimi

Chapter Name: The Basement Face Off

HP: ??

Attacks: Rubee Throwing; Rubee Wave

Strategy:
The boss of this chapter is a doppelganger! She'll morph in to Merlee
in the beginning and begins a game show. So now you have to guess the
right Merlee. The correct Merlee is always the one with a fly around
her since she just got out of a toilet. After that begins the battle.
In the beginning you can't hurt her because she has a barrier around
her. After a while the real Merlee will take it off. So now begins
the real fight! Use Thoreau once again to grab the Rubee's she throws
at you. Throw them back at her to make her fall off the ceiling. Grab
another one and hit her again to make her dizzy. Jump on her head to
take off her first leg. Now she'll use a wave of Rubee's, use Mario
to flip to 3-D and dodge them. Do that six more times and she'll be
down!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.4) Chapter 3-1 Character Boss: Bowser

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: Bowser

Chapter Name: When Geeks Attack

HP: 20

Attacks: Fire Breath

Strategy:
Oh man not you again...I mean YAY Bowsers Back! The King of Comedy!!
Unlike other Mario Games, this Mario vs. Bowser Battle will be over
before you can blink! Use Boomer to blow him up a couple time's,
while dodging his flames. If Boomer touches the fire he'll instantly
blow up! So time it right.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.5) Chapter 3-2 Mini Boss: Big Blooper

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: Big Blooper

Chapter Name: Bloops Ahoy!

HP: ??

Attacks: Tentacle

Stategy:
YAY the Big Bloopers back! (I was afraid we finished him off in the
previous game!) All he can do in this battle is throw his tentacles
up to hurt you. Your looking for the red tentacle, as seeing as thats
the only one that will hurt him. Hurt the blue ones too so it makes
the red one pop up. This is another easy battle!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.6) Chapter 3-3 Mini Boss: Dimentio (First Encounter)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: Dimentio

Chapter Name: Up, Up, And a Tree

HP: 30

Attacks: Magic Ball; Duplicate

Strategy:
Oh no!!! Dimentio sent us to a dimension that makes him a lot
stronger!! Pfft, if he's that strong in the dimension how strong is
he out side of it!? Well he's probably the hardest boss we've ran in
to so far, I'll give him that. He'll use Magic Balls to hurt you. Use
Peach's Umbrella to block them. Jump on his head the second you block
it, or while he's charging it up. After a while he'll make an
illusion of him self. They can both hurt you but you can only hurt
the real one! Find it and finish him off.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.7) Chapter 3-4 Chapter Boss: Francis

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: Francis

Chapter Name: The Battle of Fort Francis

HP: 40

Attacks: MeowBomb Attack; Eat; Invisibilty; Camera Flash

Strategy:
Time to give this nerd a good beating! And whose better for that job
than Bowser? Since Francis can go Invisible you get about a second to
hurt him. Use Thoreau to grab him and throw him against a wall.
Immediatly after that burst his butt into flames! Do that a few times
and he gives up!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.8) Chapter 4-4 Chapter Boss: Mr. L & Brobot

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name(s): Mr. L; Brobot

Chapter Name: The Mysterious Mr. L

HP: 40

Attacks: Shroom Shake; Jump, Energy Ball

Strategy:
Hey who is that good looking guy in green? I swear I've seen some one
just like him! Mr. L is probably the funnest boss to fight because of
who he REALLY is. In the beginning of the fight he just jumps on you.
Occasionally he'll use a Shroom Shake to heal him self. After you
finish him off he has a back up plan! He calls on Brobot. Now your
in space with Squirps. Use Carrie, so you can move around faster. All
Brobot will use are energy balls, which are easy to dodge. Just
constantly shoot him and he'll be down in 5 minutes! While in
Space there are 5 different kinds Chocolate Bars to help you! Blue:
Create a Barrier around you. Yellow: Makes you faster. Red: Increases
fire power. Green: Gives you Missles. And Purple: Multi-Shoot.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.9) Chapter 5-2 Mini Boss: O'Chunks (Second Encounter)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: O'Chunks

Chapter Name: Pixls, Tablets, and Crags

HP: 40

Attacks: Jump; Ground Pound; Grab and Throw

Strategy:
This is the SAME exact fight as before! Except he has more HP. So
just do the same thing when you first faced him in Chapter 1.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.10) Chapter 5-4 Mini Boss: O'Chunks (Third Encounter)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Name: O'Chunks

Chapter Name: The Menance of King Croacus

HP: 60

Attacks: Jump; Ground Pound; Grab and Throw; Tornado Spin

Strategy:
Omg didn't we JUST kill you! Don't you know when to quit!?!? Well
this is the same as the last two fights, but as always he has more
HP, 20 to be exact. He also has a new attack! This attack he just
spins and spins and spins! He's also a little faster. But other then
that just do the same as always to kill him.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


2.11) Chapter 5-4 Chapter Boss: King Croacus

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: King Croacus

Chapter Name: The Menance of King Croacus

HP: 50

Attacks: Vine Pound; Pedal Star

Strategy:
What I don't get about this boss is, why don't we go get some weed
killer to kill it? Or have Bowser set it on flames. Well to kill him
use Thoreau to grab his vines and throw them at him when his pedals
are open. After a while his vines will die and he will be a floating
flower. He'll throw flower stars at you. Grab the flowers or the head
and have them hit each other to finish him off.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.12) Chaptr 6-2 Mini Boss: Mimi (Second Encounter)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: Mimi

Chapter Name: The End of a World

HP: ??

Attacks: Rubee Throw; Rubee Wave; Rubee Barrier; Flip

Strategy:
The doppelganger is back once again! This time with two new moves!
Her first new move gives her a barrier of Rubees to protect her. Her
other one allows her to flip between dimensions for a little bit!
Like the other battle use Peachs Umbrella to block her attacks. Use
Thoreau to grab the Rubees and hurt her. So basically it's the same
fight as before!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.13) Chapter 6.1? Chapter Boss: Mr. L & Brobot L. Type (2nd
Encounter)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name(s): Mr. L & Brobot L. Type

Chapter Name: N/A

HP: 255

Attacks: Inhale; Punch; Hand Missil

Strategy:
To defeat Mr. L use Peach, since she can block all his attacks except
his inhale. So don't worry about his attacks; except inhale. But
luckily he shows off his attack before using it! He'll open his mouth
for a second and close it. When he does that run away from him to
avoid it. If you can, let him eat up Boomer for major damage! To hurt
him is even easier! Use Boomer right at his feet to hurt him! This
should finish him off very quickly!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

2.14) Chapter 7-2 Character Boss: Bowser

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: Bowser

Chapter Name: The Sealed Doors Three

HP: 30

Attacks: Fire Breath

Strategy:
You can hardly call him a boss! As before just avoid his Flames. Use
Cudge or Boomer (personal choice) to take him down. I think Cudge is
easier to use since you don't have to time his flames. Each attack
will do about 10 HP so he will be down in 30 second. Afterwards,
he'll rejoin the party! Yay?
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.15) Chapter 7-2 Mini Boss: The Underchomps

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name(s): Red Chain Chomp & Blue Chain Chomp & Yellow Chain Chomp

Chapter Name: The Sealed Doors Three

HP: 10 (Each)

Attacks: Chomp

Strategy:
This is a really fun fight!!! It's an old style RPG battle! Each
Chain Chomp has 10 HP which means its really easy. Use your Pixl's
to hurt them. If you have low HP and no healing Items use Piccolo
(hopefully you have her!) to put them to sleep. After that use any
offensive Pixls, or Bowser, to kill them.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.16) Chapter 7-4 Chapter Boss: Bonechill

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: Bonechill

Chapter Name: A Bone-Chilling Tale (Haha! Get it?)
HP: 80

Attacks: Frost Breath; Icicle

Strategy:
Bonechill may be big but he isn't tough. He only has two attacks, in
which one should only be able to hurt you. Frost Breath is easy to
avoid, just run to the other side of the room if he's using it. For
Icicle just look for an opening between the icicles to slip through.
Now to hurt him use Luigis Super Jump to hit his head, right before
he uses Frost Breath. If done right he should'nt use Frost Breath
and you took out a chunk of his life! Do that enough times to take
his 80 HP away.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.17) Chapter 8-1 Mini Boss: O'Chunks (Final Encounter)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: O'Chunks

Chapter Name: The Impending Darkness

HP: 100

Attacks: Jump; Ground Pound; Grab and Throw; Tornado Spin

Strategy:
Finally our last time fighting him! But this time you only get to use
Bowser! Use Thoreau to grab him and throw him as always, then either
jump on his head, or flame his ugly butt! Like the other three times,
this is an easy fight!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.18) Chapter 8-2 Mini Boss: Mimi (Final Encounter)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: Mimi

Chapter Name: The Crash

HP: ??

Attacks: Rubee Throw; Rubee Wave

Strategy:
This is also our last fight with Mimi! But similar to last fight you
only have Peach this time to fight her. Luckily, Peach can block her
attacks, except the Wave. Use Thoreau to throw her Rubees back at
her. Hey it seems only fair since we really do owe her 1,000,000
Rubees! (Unless you didn't steal them in 2-3) Then jump on her head
to do the damage. Easy as always!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.19) Chapter 8-3 Mini Boss: Dimentio (2nd Encounter)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: Dimentio

Chapter Name: Countdown to Destruction
HP: 80

Attacks: Magic Ball; Triple Duplicate

Strategy:
Dimentio isn't known for a regular battle! He has to do SOME THING to
make it different. This time he takes you through different areas in
the game. Follow him and use Fleep on the Thunderbolts to go to the
next area. Once done chasing him, its time to fight him. In this
battle you have Luigi only to fight with. He'll do the same tactics
as before to fight you but now he has two other illusions when he
uses it. Just jump on his head when you get the chance to kill him.
Since thats only way you can attack him. The only hard part is when
he uses his illusions.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.20) Chapter 8-4 Chapter Boss: Count Bleck

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: Count Bleck

Chapter Name: Tippi and Count Bleck

HP: 150

Attacks: Vortex; Shadow Ball; Teleport; Dash

Strategy:
Here he is the big baddie! You won't be able to hurt him until the
other characters join you again and dispel his shield. Count Bleck
has many attacks. He'll Teleport and use his Shadow Ball a lot. But
the attack you need to worry about most is his Vortex! It'll suck you
up. Count Bleck will Dash right through you and take a chunk of
your life. Use Peach and Slim to fight him. Peach's umbrella and high
grounds makes it easy to hit him, and Slim's ability makes it hard
for him to hit you! After a while he'll die. End of Game...or is it?
...
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

2.21) Chapter 8-4 The Real Chapter Bosses: Dimentio and Mr. L (Final
Encounters)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name(s): Dimentio and Mr. L

Chapter Name: Tippi and Count Bleck

HP: 200

Attacks: Missil

Strategy:
OMG Luigi! How could you betray us!! Huh? He's brain washed? Oh I
guess thats a LITTLE better. Well heres the REAL final boss. Like
the last battle you can't hurt him until your allies show up and
help. Use Peach and Slim again. Peach to jump on his head and Slim
to avoid all his Missils. Just keep that strategy up and they'll be
down in no time. They don't show much threat considering their lack
of attacks...
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

3) Optional Bosses
These Bosses are COMPLETELY optional and you don't have to fight them
if you don't want to.

3.1) Chapter 8-2 Mini Boss: Francis

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: Francis

Chapter Name: The Crash

HP: 40

Attacks: Eat; Invisibilty

Strategy:
OMG WE CAN FIGHT FRANCIS AGAIN!?!?!? Yes, you can. In Chapter 8-2
when Mim...I mean Merlee will ask you what your most afraid of.
On the third choice select Francis. You'll run in to him 2 rooms
away. He doesn't have all the attack he did back in chapter 3 but
thats alright. Since you don't have Bowser this time use any
character to jump on him. He'll be down in 3-5 jumps. You don't get
anything for killing him but it's nice to see him again.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

3.2) The Pit of 100 Trials Flipside: Wracktail

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Name: Wracktail

Area: 100th Floor of Flipsides Pit of 100 Trials

HP: ??

Attacks: Tackle

Strategy:
This is basically the same fight as Fracktails. But he has more HP
and Attack. But this time around you have Luigi. Use Mario to flip
and go on his back. Then switch to Luigi and Super Jump on to his
ball. Keep on bouncing up and down on it until he decides to fly
around the sky. Like before jump off his tail and on to his head.
Do this three more times and he'll be dead. Your reward is the final
Pixl Dashell.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

3.3) The Pit of 100 Trials Flopside: Shadoo

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Area: 100th Floor of Flopsides Pit of 100 Trials

HP: 100 each Form

Attacks: Jump; Hammer; Flame Breath; Super Jump; Umbrella Defense

Strategy:
Pit of 100 Trials? Pfft more like The Pit of 200 Trials! Thats right
you have to go through Flopsides pit two times to find Shadoo. He's a
doppelganger just like Mimi. He'll first change in to Luigi. After
fighting Luigi for a little bit he'll change in to Bowser. After
fighting Bowser for a little bit he'll change in to Peach. Finally
after fighting Peach he'll turn in to Mario. He has the same exact moves
as you! With the exception of Pixls. But he will have Cudge when he's
Mario. After beating him you will receive the rare cards: Dark Luigi,
Dark Bowser, Dark Peach, Dark Mario, Luigi, Bowser, Peach, and Mario.
