Description[]
Paper Mayhem ensues! Who was Mario's greatest Partner group?
Interlude[]
Metroid: The Paper Mario 64 Partners.
Thunder: And the Thousand Year Door Partners!
Metroid: Mario has gone on many adventures, and gain many allies. But when it came to his more...papery adventures, he had a group for both occasions.
Thunder: But who's the better of the two teams? He's Metroid and I'm Thunder!
Metroid: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor and skills to find out who would win a Death Battle.
Paper Mario 64 gets refolded![]
Metroid: Once upon a time, above the clouds, was a place known as Star Haven. In this city, the seven Star Spirits stayed, to grant the wishes of the people from the world below.
Thunder: So does that mean like, if I wish for the world to burn it’ll actually burn?
Metroid: Well, no. If the wish is just selfish, the Star Spirits will ignore it. Such as, for instance, Bowser’s wishes to beat Mario in a fight, or have Peach be his.
Thunder: You remember him, right? The guy we pit against a Draconequus last season. It was a fun time. But he broke in and stole something that actually could grant him those wishes; the Star Rod!
Metroid: With this, he transformed the Star Spirits into Stars and actually did what he never did before; to beat Mario in a fight. But luckily, the plumber is too tough to get down THAT easily, and went on a journey to beat Bowser at his newest strength.
Thunder: And this time, he had help! Goombario, Kooper, Bombette, Parakarry, Lady Bow, Watt, Sushi, and Lakilester!
BACKGROUND:
Goombario:
Deku if he were a Mario character
Kooper:
A big fan of Kolorado
Bombette:
Deal with an annoying love-sick Bom-Omb
Parakarry:
Makes the most appearances out of anyone here
Lady Bow:
Worst Enemy - The Interet
Watt:
Occasionally mis-gendered as a boy
Sushie:
The Team Mom
Lakilester:
Perfers to go by Spike
Metroid: Named after Mario himself, Goombario is actually a huge fan of the plumber himself. He actually even trained to be just like him too!
Thunder: And so, when Mario-Senpai fell near his house, the little dude was ecstatic as hell! And even more so, when he was able to join Mario on his grand adventure to definitely beat Bowser for good! And surprisingly, he actually trained for the off-chance he could go on his own adventures.
Metroid: Goombario only has one main method of attack; Headbonking. With a grand leap, Goombario essentially performs a diving headbutt. With an ability to charge up it's power, and the Multibonk skill which lets him do it at a rapid pace, Goombario basically has his own version of his hero's greatest ability, jumping and stomping.
Thunder: And he has a weird ability called Tattle. This lets him be able to figure out the stats, abilities, and weaknesses of a target just by taking a glance! So uh, if you got any secret weaknesses he's likely to figure it out.
Metroid: Later on the adventure, Mario met a Koopa named Kooper, who wanted to become an an archeologist like his idol, Kolorado.
Thunder: After joining Mario, the Koopa made sure to help out however he can. He can do the usual Koopa gig of retreating into their shell. But he can even do more with it!
Metroid: With Shell Toss, Kooper merely rams into his target, but the other variations have different effects. For instance, Power Shell has him plow through foes, allowing him to hit more than one target. Dizzy Shell has him move so fast that he spins foes and makes them dizzy. And Fire Shell has him move at speeds that he leaves a fire trail and greatly damage anyone hit. But he struggles with flying foes.
Thunder: Still, his shell can withstand explosions from other Bom-Ombs or even a fire, so it's a strudy defense. Speaking of Bom-Ombs, we also have Bombette, a Pink Bom-Omb who has a bit of a temper problem. She's my favorite! Especially after she blew up the Koopa Bros. after being mistreated at work. You go girl!
Metroid: Quick detour from the analysis; please pay your workers. Bombette has a tackle called Body Slam. But being a living bomb means she has more than body strikes, she can explode, with each having varying power; the standard Bomb only targets one, Power Bomb target multiple enemies, and Mega Bomb targets all, even flying targets.
Thunder: And then there's Parakarry. A clumsy mailman, but always eager to help, he's a Paratroopa who can help carry Mario's ass. He's got a shell that's a tough as Kooper's, and various techniques like Sky Dive, where he does a dive kick, Shell Shot has him retreat into the shell and then ram into foes, Air Lift has him carry people out of the fight, and Air Raid makes him rocket around everywhere, attacking everyone on the field! And now it's time for the loveable bitch of the team, Lady Bow!
Metroid: Holding a Star Spirit hostage, which frankly is a ballsy move, Bow blackmailed Mario into helping her defeat the Invincible Tubba Blubba. But even after, she stuck around to see the world and have a little adrenaline in her life...er, afterlife? It's a little weird if Boos aredead souls.
Thunder: And she's definitely no slouch! She can hide her teammates with Outta Sight, making them invisible and intangible as long as they don't move. With Spook, she can scare foes into leaving the fight outta sheer fuckin' terror, or she can slap you silly, even with a fan!
Metroid: Then there's Watt, who is a Baby Lil Sparky who Mario saved from a ghost using her a lantern. Which also brings into question why Mario decided to bring a baby to fight Bowser...
Thunder: It's probably because she's broken. Watt can paralyze someone with Power Shock, or paralyze multiple with Mega Shock. Turbo Charge lets her power up her allies, and Electro Dash has her shock foes, and IGNORE DURABILITY. Also she can bring light to a dark room, but that's situational...she also can't be hit physically because she's a literal ball of lightning. Do so, and you get a shock instead!
Metroid: Now on the opposite side of the age spectrum, Sushie is a grandma Cheep Cheep who babysits young Yoshis on Lavalava Island. Despite being more cautious than the others, Sushie joined upon finding out Mario wanted to save his love.
Thunder: And she can hold her own in a fight with moves like Belly Flop, where she leaps up and slams down, and water moves like Squirt, where she spits out a jet of water, Water Block, who covers allies in a block of water to lessen damage, and Tidal Wave, where she inflates to a big size before spraying water every which way, flooding the arena!
Metroid: Her water attacks deal more damage to water people, and Tidal Wave, if pulled off perfectly has greater damage than even Bowser with the Star Rod enhancing his power. And it can even somehow flood the final battle's location which is above the clouds.
Thunder: So...she flooded the earth.
Metroid: I...guess so.
Thunder: Well, time to move onto the final member, Lakilester! Or how he perfers to be called, Spike.
Metroid: Lakilester originally worked for one of the villains, but decided to help Mario after seeing his resolve...and losing to him. He does usual move of a Lakitu; throwing Spiny Eggs. With Spiny Flip he throws one, Spiny Surge has him throw multiple.
Thunder: And that Cloud also pulls its weight. Cloud Nine has him cover an ally in a cloud, making them hard to hit. And with Hurricane, the cloud actually blows air enough to send opponents away from battle.
Metroid: All in all the team was great aid for Mario. They helped him stop Bowser, and kept with Mario's reflexes.
Thunder: And since Mario 64, Bowser's been doing stuff with Universal levels of power! Remember the Power Stars? He powered himself up with that and Mario still beat his ass, and the Power Stars can creates whole worlds and even a infinite void in one of those worlds! And with the Star Rod, Bowser was even stronger!
Metroid: And with speed, well, Mario did fight Culex, and Culex is the Master of Time and Space, and can consume time. Timeless voids logically are his natural environment. He even holds time from its beginning to its end, and during his battle, he was crossing between dimensions. In the Japanese version he was within a dimensional rift, and those are, by definition, devoid of time and space. Hell, Mario even moved when time was frozen in Tick Tock Clock!
Thunder: So yeah, there's pretty powerful! ...Outside of lacking anything to replenish Flower Points. If they do, the move pool gets lower. But that didn't stop them from helping Mario beat Bowser and allow wishes to be granted once more!
Metroid: Still, despite the fact this group is mostly a ragtag team, I will say this; they're a damn good one who have each other's back.
Thousand Year Door seal the deal![]
Metroid: Long ago, the a town in a far away land thrived beautifully.
Thunder: Until shit hit the fan. What a surprise. A demon proceeded to fuck shit up, causing the town to be fucked up big time and sink to the depths of the earth.
Metroid: While four heroes manages to seal away the demon's spirit, the damage was done. And all in the town slain. Years would go by, and a new town name Rougeport would built over the ruins.
Thunder: And then the town kinda got a myth about some treasure under the town. But no one was really able to find it. Until Princess Peach took a vacation to Rougeport, despite it being a DANGEROUS CITY, and got a map for the treasure! ...I don't think NEED to say it but she also got kidnapped.
Metroid: But she did manag to send a letter to her beloved Mario, who set off with the map to find said treasure...which was just the sealed demon's soul.
Thunder: Ah, so those heroes just kicked the can down the road. Well, Mario was still gonna need help with this one as well. And he got one heck of a unique team of a Goomba, Koopa, Wind Spirit, Yoshi, Shadow, Bom-Bomb, and Lil' Mouser!
Metroid: More specifically known as Goombella, Koops, Madame Flurrie, Mini-Yoshi, Vivian, Admiral Bobbery, and Ms. Mowz.
BACKGROUND:
Goombella:
College student with dreams of archeology
Koops:
Has a lazy eye
Madame Flurrie:
Favorite Item: Her necklace
Mini-Yoshi:
Also known as The Great Gonzales Jr.
Vivian:
Former Member of the Shadows
Admiral Bobbery:
One of the more depressing Mario characters
Ms. Mowz:
Owner of the Lovely Howz of Badges
Thunder: When everyone's favorite plumber mad it Rougeport, he came across a Goomba named Goombella, who was being attacked by some weirdos called the X-Nauts.
Metroid: And so Mario saved her. Turns out she was researching the same treasure and joined Mario in hopes of finding the Legendary treasure. And luckily for Mario, she was no idle layabout.
Thunder: Her skillset is similar to other Goomba partner; Headbonk, Tattle, and Multibonk. But she does have a unique move of her own called Rally Wink, where she winks at her allies to give them courage...and I guess that somehow increases their attack power.
Metroid: Next up is Koops. A usually timid Koopa, the nervous turtle joined Mario in hopes of defeating Hooktail, a dragon terrorizing his home in Petalburg, and the apparent killer of his dad.
Thunder: Yeah, his dad was alive and just in her gut for years. But he still stayed with Mario to become a stronger person! Er, Koopa. And he has just enough moves to handle himself!
Metroid: He has similar moves to Kooper, like Shell Toss and Power Shell, but has his own unique moves, such as Shell Shield, which makes a giant shell for his ally to be shielded from attacks, and Shell Slam, which ignores defense.
Thunder: And then there's the gal named Madame Flurrie, who's one of the two here who is not a pre-existing Mario species. She's a Wind Spirit who was once a star, but wanted some time away from showbiz. I ..don't get it. We couldn't take too long a VS Break.
Metroid: Regardless, Mario's quest was the action she needed when she felt as if her days were growing dull. Her skillset has a Body Slam, using her...stage presence to crush her foes. Wind Gale works similarly to Lakilester's Hurricane, blowing foes out of the battle. With Lip Lock, Flurrie outright kisses her opponent and drains their health from it, adding to her own. And Dodgy Fog makes her allies becoming seemingly wavey, thus hard to hit.
Thunder: Next up is the Mini-Yoshis, who Mario saved while in a egg when it was about to used on a Hot Dog. This dude just loves a good fight! After all, that's like the frst thing he experienced. And despite being born during the journey, this baby Yosh was able to keep up!
Metroid: Ground Pound is a pretty straightforward move: Mini-Yoshi flutters upwards, before dropping bottom first rapidly on the foe. Despite the move name, Gulp, despite the name, is not Yoshi swallow his opponents, but trapping him in his mouth and spitting them out towards any other target. Mini-Egg has him lay eggs and throw them, causing shrinking and in turn weaking the target, and Stampede has him call in dozens of Yoshis to run across the arena, crushing the targets in the stampede.
Thunder: And next we have Vivian, who's usually considered the best of the partners. She was once apart of the Shadows, but Vivian changed sides after Mario was nice to her compared to her bitch of a sister.
Metroid: ...Yes, we are calling her a girl. We may force beloved warriors to fight to the death and cause grief to their closest friends and family, but we're going to respect pronouns.
Thunder: Listen, Vivian may be a sweet girl, but her battling skills is anything but. She knows moves like Shade Fist, which is a punch that deals burn damage, damaging foes overtime! She can use Veil to hide her allies and herself in the shadows, use Fiery Jinx to cause flames to erupt around her enemies, and Infatuate to be so damn cute, people start crushing on her and get confused and hit others.
Metroid: And if you want someone with experience, look no further than Admiral Bobbery. His tale is sad one...he was married to another named Scarlette and their love was like that of fairy tales...at least until Scarlette died from illness while he was out at sea. When he returned, he was heartbroken.
Thunder: So he refused to sail ever again! ...At least until Mario showed up with a letter that Scarlette wrote that got him back in the game by her telling him not to blame himself...so why didn't Podley just give him the damn letter?!
Metroid: Well he did say Bobbery was mourning too heavily...
Thunder: Bullshit reason, Podley's just a dick.
Metroid: Well...regardless, obbery is so slouch. He can explode, as expected of a Bom-Omb, and even make giant explosions with Bom-omblast that hit all targets. With Bomb Squad, he throws three bombs that explode after sme time, allowing for some stage control, and Hold Fast lets him counter direct blows.
Thunder: Last but not least is the Rouge the Bat and Ada Wong of the team; Ms. Mowz! No seriously she fits the roles nearly perfectly. She may be a store owner for the Lovely Howz of Badges, but this mouse is a globe-trotting master thief!
Metroid: She's stealthy, crafty, and great at takedowns, such as when a mere smack to the back of the head knocked out a X-Naut for a short time. Love Slap is just a series of slaps, but they have a notable addition in that is bypasses defense.
Thunder: She's also a huge flirt, allowing her to use it in combat; Kiss Thief has her kiss her opponent, staggering them long enough for her to steal items on hand, and Smooch has her heal her allies with a kiss! And like...it heals ALOT. And with Tease, she makes four clones of herself to dizzy foes with some sly moves..and maybe they can fight along her.
Metroid: Even without special skills, this team of seven have many skills; for example the Superguard. By blocking just as the attack hits, it nullifies damage to them and redirects to their target. If it's a projectile, it reflects back to sender.
Thunder: And they have many items to help! They have a LOT of different healing items; food, Mushrooms, or stuff like Syrup to recover their PP points. Life Shrooms even revive fallen allies! With the Earth Quake, they can cause the ground to, well, quake and damage and trip over people. Fire Flower shoot out a bunch of fireballs, HP Drain takes health from foes and heals themselves, Ice Storm shoots a barrage of ice stars that can freeze foes, Thunder Rage drops lightning down on all targets, and Egg Bomb, Coconut Bomb and Zess Dynamite are well, explosives.
Metroid: With a Boo's Sheet, they can make themselves invisible. With a Volt Mushroom, they become electrified so physical contact damages their targets instead. Repel Cape helps evasion, and Courage Shell increases defense.
Thunder: Dizzy Dial makes enemies, well...dizzy. Hot Sauce and Ruin Powder increases strength, Mini Mr. Mini shrinks foes and lower their attack power, Mr. Softener softens the body of a target, making them less durable, Sleepy Sheep makes foes fall asleep, and Stop Watch freezes time.
Metroid: And with the Fright Mask, they can scare anyone into running. Ultimately, their various abilities allowed them to overcome the challenges and help Mario get all Crystal Stars...and unintentionally unsealed but defeat the Shadow Queen.
Thunder: So for stats, we're gonna have to go and say they should scale to Mario and Bowser. Sure, the Shadow Queen is stronger than both at the time, but they needed a power boost from Peach to handle it. So base Bowser scaling to Universal like he explained not to long ago since Bowser didn't power himself up this time! And yeah, the Infinite Speeds stuff should qualify here too.
Metroid: And ultimately, after saving Rougeport, and the world, the seven went on to their own things; Goombella helped Professor Frankly with his research, Koops runs for Mayor, Flurrie returns to the stage, Mini-Yoshi becomes the next Glitz Pit Champ, Vivian offers her sisters a second chance, Bobbery sails once more, and Mowz continues her heists.
Thunder: But when they get back together, they're a hard force of nature. They're a great team in a unique way, and you gotta love them for it.
Prelude[]
Metroid: Alright, the combatants are set, and we've run the data through all possibilities.
Thunder: It's time for a Death Battle!
Pre-Fight[]
In a small area in the Mushroom Kingdom, A group of friends were exiting some ruins. But this was just any other group; it was a certain team the hero Mario has worked with long ago.
It consisted of a Goomba, Koopa, Bom-Omb, Parakoopa, Boo, Lil' Sparky, Cheep Cheep and Lakitu. To be specific, this team was Goombario, Kooper, Bombette, Parakarry, Lady Bow, Watt, Sushie, and Lakilester.
"Phew! That was a rough one. Glad we were able to mostly get out of it okay." Goombario spoke, before tossing a rare badge up. "And we got something out of it too!"
Kooper seemed to share the excitement. "Yeah! And I took notes of everything inside the ruins! Kolorado's gonna love these!" He gleefully spoke, as Bombette chimed in. "Well, anything to get away from Bruce, I suppose." She casually replied.
Meanwhile, Parakarry was counting his remaining letters, and sighed in relief before Bow startled him with essentially a jumpscare. "Waugh! Bow, don't do that!" Parakarry complained with the princess of a Boo laughing at his reaction. "Well then, don't make it so easy for me to get a reaction out of you!"
"Yay! That was fun! When can we, um, do it again?" Watt asked, as Sushie lifted a fin up. "Maybe some other time. I think we should take a small break."
Lakilester was about to speak, but notice a rustle in one of the bushes nearby. "Uh, guys? I think someone's watching us."
After a mment of silence, something quickly emerged from the bush and snagged the badge from Goombario's non-existent hands. "Wha-- hey!" He yelled before the group saw the culprit; none other than Ms. Mowz.
"Hey! Give that back! We worked hard for it!" Kooper complained, but Ms. Mowz simply laughed a bit. "Sorry, sweeties! But thanks for making my job easier~" She replied before hopping off.
Bombette, now pretty peeved, declared "Why that flirty little-- let's get her!" She yelled as Bow frowned. "Hmph. How unladylike...if it's a chase you want, it's a chase you'll get!"
"Should we really do this? It is just a badge." Sushie tried to be reasonable. But alas, the others began to give chase, with one of Parakarry's letters falling on her face. "Sigh....maybe I should just try to make sure things don't go wrong."
And thus a chase occurred across the Mushroom Kingdom. There was some things that caused paused, such as some people (mainly Koopa Koot) wanting some favors done, sleeping at Inns to recover, and being briefly distracted by the Playroom. But ultimately, they reached their destination: Rougeport.
Where another group, consisting of a Goomba, Koopa, Wind Spirit, Yoshi, Shadow Siren, and Bom-Omb, are waiting. This group was another team Mario worked with; the team that helped him seal away the Shadow Queen; Goombella, Koops, Madame Flurrie, Mini-Yoshi, Vivian, and Admiral Bobbery. "Do you...think Mowz forgot about the meeting?" Koops asked nervously.
Goombella lowered her book. "Nah. You know how she is, busy doing Badge hunting." She spoke, with Flurrie chuckling. "Well, she wouldn't be Mowz if she wasn't, wouldn't she?"
"Well, she better get here! I didn't leave Glitz Pit for nothing!" Mini-Yoshi complained. "I'm pretty sure she's coming. We just need to be a bit more patient...but she is taking longer than usual." Vivian noted. All Bobbery did was glance to the side and saw the thief coming closer. "Ay, there she is."
"Hey you all!" Ms. Mowz greeted. "Sorry for the hold up, did a little plundering~" She spoke, holding up the badge she stole. "It's about time! Alright, let's get this outing on the road--" Goombella spoke, before hearing a yell.
"There you are!" The voice alerted everyone to turn around to see Goombario and co. glaring at them. After a bit, Goombella flatly glared at Mowz. "You stole that from them didn't you."
"Maybe I did, maybe I didn't." Mowz cheekily spoke, as Lakilester spoke. "Yeah, no way. She DID steal that fom us after we cleared a wild ruin!"
"So, if possible, could you just--" Sushie attempted to speak, but Bombette cut her off. "Give it back ya two-bit thief!" She bellowed, fuse lighting before Sushie quickly put it out.
Ms. Mowz scoffed at the 'two-bit' comment, but Vivian nudged her. "I think you should just give it back, to avoid any trouble." Vivian spoke, making Mowz sigh it hold it out.
"Oh, oh! I wanna get the badge back!" Watt cheerily asked. Her friends looked at each other, before deciding it SHOULD be alright, and she gleefully went over to retrieve their prize.
At least until she accidentally electrocuted Koops as he stood too close her. After a bit, Mini-Yoshi got up in arms and stormed towards Watt. "HEY! She was already giving it back, you didn't need to hurt Koops over it!"
"I-I didn't mean to--" An Egg Bomb was thrown at her face, making her fly back with Lakilester barely catching her. "Hey! Little much, you little punk!" Goombario yelled, as Goombella rolled up. "Well, maybe you shouldn't send a baby to do your work just because they ask."
"Oh, why that little brat...you wanna start something?!" Goombario yelled, as Goombella then gritted her teeth. "Brat? Alright, that's it! We're teaching these jerks a lesson!"
As the two teams glared at each other (Aside from Sushie who facefinned and Watt who was slowly backing up), the air was tense..
Then they charged.
Fight[]
To sum it up, pure chaos broke out from seventeen people getting into a battle. Goombario and Goombella both went for a headbonk, but ended up clashing and just falling to the ground with a grunt.
Meanwhile, Kooper and Koops retreated into their shells, with Bombette and Bobbery running up to kick the shells, the armored Koopas clashing and sending sparks into air. They'd retreat, the bombs would kick back, so on and so forth.
As all this chaos happened, Watt quickly hid in one of the buildings. Luckily for the baby, no one saw her hiding away. Speaking of babies, Mini-Yoshi was running in, charging up to Lakilester and lashing his tongue out.
Lakilester dodged, before throwing a Spiny Egg at Mini-Yoshi. The Mini-Yoshi paused, waited...and performed a Superguard to knock the projectile back, Lakilester lowering to avoid getting hit...but was promptly kicked in the face by his little enemy.
Grunting, Lakilester adjusted his Eyewear. "Watch the shades, kid!" He complained. "I dont care about that!" Mini-Yoshi yelled back, before lashing his tongue out again, missing...and getting a Spiny Egg thrown at it, making him yell out in pain.
in another part of the area, Ms. Mowz saw Kooper pop out of his shell, and attempted to help Koops...just for Lady Bow to appear in front of her and give her a good slap. After a bit, Vivian slowly turned to her. "Did you just...?"
"Oh, yes what are you going to--" Before she did, a piercing SLAP hit her, making her pause before gritting her teeth and slapping Mowz again, before a slap fight broke out between the two.
Vivian would see this happen, and make way to help Mowz, just for a shell to suddenly strike the back of her head.ing it, she looked aside to see Parakarry popping out, performing Sky Dive. Vivian saw it this time, and used her arm to block it, before using a rushed Shade Fist and striking Parakarry in the stomach long enough before grabbing him by the legs and throwing him into the window of Zess T.'s shop.
Sushie, on the other hand, groaned at the chaos that was perfectly preventable. At least, until she noticed a shadow appearing over her. Looking up, she yelped when she saw it was Flurrie coming down with a body slam, and barely hopped away.
Flurrie got up, giggling. "Oh my, someone's quick, aren't they?" Sushie straightened up. "You nearly crushed me!"
"Oh, don't worry, hun. That wouldn't have been that bad--" Flurrie was cut off by Sushie using Squirt, getting splashed by water hitting her directly in the face, making her hair and makeup messy. After blinking a bit, she glared at the peeved Cheep Cheep. "Oh, now you just made this personal." Flurrie growled, before lunging and grabbing Sushie and shaking her around.
Meanwhile, Bobbery was watching the battle while kicking away Koopers sheell, looking for any hint of chaos or opening...but Bombette quickly ran up and Body Slammed him, knocking him back. "Watch yourself, old man!" She chistated, as Bobbery merely snarled and adjusted his head before seeing Bombette leaping forward with a kick.
With a swift evasion, he evaded her from the left and gave a good kick to her back. Bombette turned around with a grunt, but was headbutted, before another kick pushed her back. "Alright, that's it! I've had enough!" Lighting her fuse, she ran up to Bobbery who did the same...
The ensuing explosion knocked away both bombs. Bobbery was knocked near the gallows, but Bombette hit the walls of the inn, the impact loosening the piece of wood with a chest above it. Standing up, Bombette looked up to see the chest...about to fall onto her.
"Aw, crud..."
The chest landed on top of her, seemingly flattening her. Kooper frantically ran ocver, opening the chest to reveal Bombette, alive...but somewhat flattened and injured. "Uh....Bombette? Are you alright?"
After a bit of coughing fit, she stared at him. "No, I am not doing okay...." She attempted to stand...but then collapsed. Staring in shock at Bombette (who now has X eyes), Kooper let out a skyward "NOOOOOO!"
Remaining:
64: Goombario, Kooper, Parakarry, Lady Bow, Watt, Sushie, Lakilester
TTYD: Goombella, Koops, Madame Flurrie, Mini-Yoshi, Vivian, Admiral Bobbery, Ms. Mowz
Immediately turning around, Kooper retracted into his shell to use Power Shell. None of the TTYD allies were able to dodge and were promptly knocked over from the blow, allowing the 64 team to backup...aside from Watt who finally worked up the bravery to step out.
The second the 64 squad got together, they noticed Kooper looking frustrated. "Kooper? ...Wait...where's Bombette?" Goombario questioned, as Kooper grunted "She's gone..." before pointing towards the chest her body was in.
Gasps came from the the rest of the group, and Goombario immediately glared at the opposing team. "...Then we gotta finish things fast. " He noted, before turning to the group. "I'll try and Tattle some of them! You guys cover me!"
The others nodded, and got ready to fight again, as their opponents were discussing plans. "Alright, you guys. We're doing well so far, but I think it's gonna get harder." Goombella noted, before continuing. "I'll try and Tattle them, you guys have my back!" She declared, her friends nodding.
Soon enough, it was back to brawling. Watt took a deep breath, unaware Goombella pulled out her book to read up on her. "Okay, that's Watt, a Lil' Sparky. She's cute....but she's also dangerous. Her body is covered in electricity, so hitting her directly is a dumb move. Use long distance or weapons, and be careful if she powers up her buddies or attempts to paralyze us!"
Meanwhile Goombario took a glance at the group and settled eyes on Bobbery. "That's Admiral Bobbery, a Sailor at Rougeport. He's got the same skills as Bombette, but he can also throw out smaller bombs and counter up close strikes at tines. Maybe we should let our distance member handle him..."
Kooper and Koops fought again, this time Kooper was more serious. He threw out two punches that Kooper attempted to block, but the more timid Koopa was caught offguard by the kick to his stomach.
"Alright, time for the-- Kooper began before feeling someone grab him from behind and forcefully turn him around, revealing to be none other than Flurrie. "Get ready for some sugar, darling~!" Before long, Flurrie planted her lips on Kooper, smooching him until part of his health was drained, leaving him in a daze.
Koops saw the opening, and quickly said "Thanks Flurrie!" before leaping and kicking Kooper in the face. The more timid then followed with...a barrage of wimpy punches, that eventually Kooper countered.
As all this occurred, Parakarry used Shell Shot once more and aimed for Mowz, who flipped over him. Parakarry exited his shell, and took off his mailbag, flying towards her before beginning to swing it as a improvised weapon.
Mowz began stepping back and weaving around Parakarry's swings, avoiding each one from the determined mailman. Eventually, Parakarry slammed the mailbag down, missing again as Mowz went in...and gave him a kiss.
Parakarry was caught offguard, making a stuttering "Wha-?" in reply before Mowz ripped the bag out of his hands and swung it at his face, spinning him around before spin kicking him away.
Lakilester barely dodge the kicked mailman, yelling "Watch it!" as Parakarry groaned. "Sorry, she got the better of me..." He groaned, getting up as Lakilester flew off to another part of the brawl, now seeing Bow getting a full powered Shade Fist to the face.
"Hey, Shadow Girl!" Lakilester yelled, performing throwing a barrage of spinies at Vivian. The former Shadow gasped, before usng Veil to hide from her opponent's assault. Lakilester raised an eyebrow...before he suddenly saw her rise back up, going forth and punching him across the face. Before long, Lakilester's cloud blew winds at Vivian to push get away.
Vivian was pushed near Watt, who scurried away, until she felt something pushing her back; Flurrie was using Wind Gale to try and push Watt into danger! Watt began to try and fight ,the against the wind, but seemed to be slowly losing.
At least until Watt blasted forward. Flurrie didn't have time to avoid or counter, and was hit by the electrical tackle of Electro Dash. Comically electrocuted, Flurrie made a bunch of stutters before the electrocution stopped. After a bit of standing, Flurrie flopped yo the floor...and turned into a giant pile of ashes.
Goombella gasped, before crying out "FLURRIE! NOOOOOOO!!!", Watt awkwarly loking up and meekly muttered "Um, oops..."

"That brat!" Goombella yelled as she charged up to the the startled Lil' Sparky, just for Goombario to jump in her way. "Not today, girlie!" He quipped, quickly going for a Headbonk that she evaded. The Mario fancy jumped back on his feet, but found himself being on the receiving end of a series of Multibonks from Goombella.
After what felt like forever, Goombario finally sidestepped. The archeologist grunted, before jumping back. She took a glance to to the side, before using Rally Wink on Mini-Yoshi, giving him a bit of a boost.
Focusing on Goombario again, she noticed him charging up power, making her mutter about Goombario being lucky he doesn't NEED a badge to charge. Regardless, Goombario went for his own Multibonk...that was sadly countered by Goombella timing a Superguard perfectly, knocking Goombario into the Gallows.
Sitting up with a grunt, Goombario noticed her pulling out a POW Block. "Wait, she uses items?" Goombario noted, before groaning. "Oh, I'm a idiot. Why didn't I think of that when I was helping M--"
Before he could actually finish his sentence, the POW Block was hit, making Goombario, Kooper and Susie to fall over. The effect was worse on Kooper, who now was stuck on his back, struggling to get up.
"Uh...guys? A little help?" Kooper meekly asked as Bow floated to him, before pausing. "Hm...say, Kooper...I have an idea that may help us here."
"Yeah, what is it?" Kooper questioned, before Bow suddenly smacked him SO hard, his shell flew towards Goombella's back, sending her flying towards Goombario, who stood and kicked her back to the floor. Grunting, Goombella looked up...and saw Sushie coming down with Belly Flop.
"Oh, you've totally gotta be kidding me..." She bemoaned, before being crushed underneath the Cheep Cheep. After a bit, it was revealed she was flattened with X eyes, Goombario jumping up in joy. "Heck yeah! We got her!"
And then literally just as he finished saying that, Mini-Yoshi came in a landed several ground pounds onto Goombario until he was just as flat.
"...Dang it." Goombario groaned before his eyes became the same.

Kooper retracted into his shell again, before blasting about at speed fast enough to dizzy everyone he was fighting. This was just what Kooper needed, leaping up throwing a kick out towards the dazed Koops's face.
With a yelp, Koops snapped out of it, and since it was close quarters, was forced to fight directly. He tried to throw a few punches, but Kooper effortless weaved around them and even blocked some. Koops kept yelling as he was continously slugged in the face, getting Vivian's attention as she just snapped out of it.
"Hey, wait a minute!" She called, making Kooper, who was about to perform Fire Shell to pause. After getting his attention, Vivian quickly put on a cute face. "Don't you think you're going a little too far?"
That made Kooper pause, a blush on his face...and that was all Koops needed to headbutt Kooper in the face. Before Kooper could do anything, he looked up to see Koops pulling out a Fire Flower.
Before long, the Flower blasted out fire balls. Kooper was completely engulfed, and once the fires died out...well, Kooper was reduced to a skeletal Dry Bones.
"...Dang it."
A punch from Koops was all it took to break him apart, leaving him to groan as his skull fell into a nearby pipe.

Lakilester took a look around, and saw Watt barely avoiding eggs coming from Mini-Yoshi. Quickly, he tackled the kid down, before using Cloud Nine to hide Watt in a cloud. Shortly after, he turned around...to see Mini-Yoshi going for a Haymaker.
Before it connected, Watt quickly used Turbo Charge to power up Lakilester. With this, Lakilester grabbed Mini-Yoshi and threw him aside, before ushering Watt to get away. "I got this, Watt. I can handle the little man!"
"Okay! Be careful, Mr. Spike!" Watt said, causing Lakilester to pump his fist in joy at being called the named he perfers. Now focused, he turned and threw more Spiny Eggs at the young Yoshi, forcing him to run behind cover.
"Shoot! This jerk's got me pinned down!" Mini-Yoshi complained, before he began to remember something. "Wait, hang on. I know what to do!" Thinking quick, he pulled out the Ice Storm item. Lakilester paused when he felt something pelting his head, and upon looking up, saw ice stars falling his way.
"Aw, come on, man!" He was forced to shield against them, but ultimately it did little to stop the assault and soon he froze. Taking the chance, Mini-Yoshi threw an egg at him, shrinking him down and taking away his strength advantage, and walked over...and tipped over the frozen body, shattering it (although it somehow still blinked).
"Whoops." He remarked, before running off to fight the others.

And his next target? Bow, who was slapping the snot out of Vivian, before Koops dropped a Shell Shield onto her to protect the Shadow.
"Hey, fancy lady! Look over here!" He called, and as Bow turned around, she struck by a heavy tackle that knocked her to the floor. Soon, he began to a rapid barrage of kicks until Bow finally took out her fan and smacked him across the face with it.
"How about you show a lady some manners?" Bow frowned, just for the child to throw eggs at her face. Grunting, Bow went up to his face and proceeded to smack the everliving daylights out of him.
"When I say to show manners, you best follow!" Bow exclaimed, the last fan smack sending flying ove the fence and landing face first on the floor.
Spitting out dirt, Mini-Yoshi gritted his teeth and took off after Bow, kicking her in the face mid-laugh as she tumbled across the floor. "You wanna go, girlie? I gotcha!" He yelled, before whistling.
The second Bow got up, she saw a giant stampede of Yoshis charging their way. Realizing the danger, she quickly yelled to her friends. "Everyone! Over here!"
Watt and Parakarry quickly flew towards her, but Sushie found herself struggling to as Bobbery pinned her down...until she spat water in his face to knock him off before charging up to the rest.
"Everyone, be close!" Bow ordered, before using Outta Sight to turn her and her friends invisible and intangible. The Yoshi stampede charged through, but alas....it didn't work on those who no longer could be touched.
Mini-Yoshi scratched his head in confusion. "Where'd that ghost girl go?" He wondered aloud, turning around in confusion...before he flew someone tap his back.
With an eyebrow raised, Mini-Yoshi turned around...to see Lady Bow now giant and doing a terrifying screech. While a tough child, he was still a kid, and screamed at the sight.
It...scared him a little too much, as shortly after, Bow noticed he was oddly stiff. She went and poked him out of curiosity...and his body fell over, stiff. Bow had quite literally scared him to death.
"Oh...that wasn't really my intention."

Before long, Bow found Vvian appearing right in front of her and slugging her across the face. Floating back, Bow growled and pulled out her fan again and returned the favor, smacking Vivian around a bit.
Vivian eventually pulled her off, and lifted a finger up. "What are you doing?" Bow asked as Vivian smiled. "Just wait." She said, before snapping her fingers, casting Fiery Jinx. Within a second, everyone on the 64 suddenly caught ablaze.
Parakarry began to use Air Raid in a desperate attempt to blow off the flames. Watt yelped as the flames hit, but Sushie was quick to splash her with water, and herself, putting out the fire.
Bow on other hand took off her ribbon and and began to fan it rapidly. As a result, Vivian was able to take out the Lightning Rage item, and activated it.
Parakarry's Air Raid allowed him to evade the lightning strike due to the sheer speed, while hitting the others. Watt quickly got above Sushie, tanking both lightning strikes with no damage. But as for Bow...
She was hit hard by it, becoming charred in a comical manner before succumbing to the damage, faceplanting.

Sushie attempted to spit some water at Bobbery, but he was quick to slide under, and kick her in the face. After that, he headbutted her, before performing a dropkick that knocked Sushie onto her back.
"Sorry, lass. But this is where we end things." Bobbery commented, pulling out a Ice Storm of his own. But before he could use it, Parakarry slammed into him, making him drop the item.
"Okay, I got this. Here goes nothing!" Parakarry told himself as he went in for a punch...just for Bobbery to use Hold Fast and countered with a headbutt. Parakarry went for another punch, Bobbery countered by performing a body slam. Parakarry then attempted an uppercut, but Bobbery, once again, counter by kicking him.
After another kick to Parakarry's gut that made him double over, Bobbery pulled out a Mr. Softener and quickly wrapped it around Parakarry's neck. And just as Parakarry regained his bearings his body softened, and as a result...
SNAP!
A surprisingly brutal snap was heard, Bobbery having twisted the Mr. Softener and twisting Parakarry's neck in the process, a pained gasp coming from the mailman as he hit the floor, dead.
Mowz, who saw it happened, had this to say.
"...Hm. A little overkill, if you ask me."
She was punched across the face by a angry Sushie afterwards.

"Watt, sweetie, we got to bring it our all here!" Sushie warned as Watt just made a cute "Okay!" in reply.
Koops ran in, attempting a leaping haymaker at Sushie, but she hopped above and landed on him, knocking him onto his back. "Ah! Uh, guys? A little help?"
Vivian attempted Fiery Jinx once more, but Sushie was fast, jumping onto her and restraining her face. Due to this struggle, Vivian struggled to activate Fiery Jinx.
Bobbery and Mowz ran over, ready to help their Koopa ally, but we're outdone by Watt tackling into then, shocking them into falling over. Soon, she was close to Koops, who's eyes shrunk. "Oh Stars, this is gonna hurt..."
And hurt it did, as Koops was then violently electrocuted, his X-Ray visible for a bit. Once Watt stopped, Koops laid silent...then his eyes turned into Xs.

Watt sighed (although she wasn't aware Koops was DEAD), but found herself getting hit by an Egg Bomb that knocked her away with an "Owie!"
It was courtesy of Vivian, who smiled, before Sushie Belly Flopped into her. Landing, she looked around, seeing Bobbery throw a bunch of miniature bombs with Bomb Squad.
Now surrounded by explosives, Sushie looked around worriedly, before an idea hit her. Soon enough she took a deep breath...and her body began to inflate rapidly. Once she reached max size...
She blasted out water everywhere, and eventually flooded the town. The three combatants against her were caught into the flood and washed against the walls of left side entrance. The bombs were washed around the Rougeport Square. The damage was immense, severally injuring them as they were pinned.
When the water subsided, all three hit the floor. Bobbery and Mowz coughed alot, barely standing, and looked over to Vivian, who laid on the ground. "Vivian? Vivian, are you alright?" Mowz worriedly asked.
When she checked, Vivian coughed up a ton of water, let out a pained groan, then faceplanted, limp.

Looking towards each other. "Say, Bobbery, how many items do we have left?" The mouse asked, before Bobbery checked. "Just a Courage Shell and My, I'm afraid. Seems that tidal wave washed away out items."
Mowz sighed, before quickly Smooching Bobbery. "Just to clarify, that was to heal you. Now lets take out these chumps!"
With a grunt of acknowledgement, Bobbery turned to face them with Mowz. With a quick move, Mowz activated Tease, several clones of herself appear and charging up.
Sushie gasped, and went for Water Block, encasing Watt in a block of water to shield her. Mowz and her clones charged up....and proceeded to simply jump around them, making both grandma and baby constantly look around before getting dizzy.
Jumping back and forming into one again, Mowz turned to Bobbery. "Go for it, you hunk." Mowz said, Bobbery lighting, his fuse as his body turned red. By the time Watt and Sushie were not dizzy, Bobbery performed Bom-Omblast.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
The explosion sent both Watt and Sushie back, but Watt's impact was cushioned...but Sushie was hit hard that she hit the floor with a painful thud, before lying down with silence.

"Uh oh..." Watt meekly spoke. While she still didn't realize everyone wasn't knocked out, she knew she was the only one on her team still fighting.
Turning to them, Watt took a deep breath...then put on her game face. "I'm gonna beat you bad guys all on my own!"
Closing her eyes and focusing, she activated Mega Shock. Confusion, yet wea ,riness, covered Bobbery and Mowz's faces as they prpared to defend.
What they didn't expect was an electric shock to blast out, pinning them down with paralyzing effects. With them unable to move, the Lil' Sparky performed another Electro Dash in hopes of defeating them fast.
She slammed into them, hard. The electricity zapped them uncontrollably, befoe blasting them down.
After a bit of silence, Bobbery stood...but not Mowz. Looking over to her, and realizing he was the last of his team, Bobbery looked over to Watt in anger.
"I believe its time we ended our little game, lass."

Watt attempted to, once again, ram into Bobbery, but he jumped over her. Realizing he was too nimble, Watt performed Power Shock...just for nothing to happen.
"Ah, out of Flower Points, I assume?" Watt looked over to Bobbery, who drank a bunch of Maple Syrup. "Sadly for you, I don't have such drawbacks." He noted before charging in, holding the Courage Shell.
Watt went in to perform Electro Dash, and clashed with the Shell. Bobbery performed Hold Fast as they the shell began to send spa ,rks around...
Soon it cracked, and Bobbery was getting his, but Hold Fast allowed him to counter. They were at a stalemate...
At least until they both heard a fuse.
Looking down, they both looked and saw that one of Bobbery's miniature bombs from earlier was in between them, and the fuse was lit from the sparks.
Both shared a worried a glance, before the explosive went off, knocking them both away, flat on their backs, both seemingly gone.
...At least until one of them slowly got up, woozy, but alive. They went over to the other, saw they had X for eyes...
And the last one standing adjusted his hat and walked towards the inn.
"Harumph...I need a drink."
Results[]
Winner's Screen: Bobbery takes a seat at the inn, and takes a Chuckola and begins to chug it.
Loser's Screen: Mario finally arrives to Rougeport...just to find the bodies of all his partners. After a bit of shock, he pulls out a bunch of 1-Ups and Life Mushrooms.
Thunder: What a battle! It's always the team battles that get chaotic!
Metroid: This battle was extremely close, but ultimately, more times than not, The Thousand Year Door Partners take the victory. First off, both were mostly dead even in stats.q
Thunder: The 64 Partners DID have a slight strength edge due to fighting a powered up Bowser, but the Thousand Year Door team had ability and items that can we weaken foes, so that can bring stats down.
Metroid: Both Goombario and Goombella can tattle to reveal abilities, stats and weaknesses of each teams members. And the Koopas can block explosions, rendering Bombette and Bobbery without many options. But let's get into the actual advantages.
Thunder: The 64 team had more members, for one. And with Sushie's Tidal Wave, they can deal even more damage than the Thousand Year Door team can in one hit! And with Watt being able to bypass defense and unable to be hit physically, that kinda seems like a set match right?
Metroid: Well, not really. The Thousand Year Door team can use items, giving them more versatile against their itemless foes. Vivian can deal burn damage, which can severely harm the 64 team overtime, Mowz's trickery could throw them for a loop, and Bobbery can counter physical moves, countering Watt, and can control the field with his Bomb Squad. But perhaps the most important part, was skill.
Thunder: That's where the Thousand Year Door team shined! The 64 team never really did much until they met Mario. The only one who has train was Goombario, but we doubt he had any training on par with theother team.
Metroid: Vivian is a Shadow, who worked for the Shadow Queen and likely had to fight. Mowz is a renowned master globe-trotting thief, so it's likely she knows many instant takedwns, and even has.
Thunder: And Bobbery's a damn Admiral! He's basically has military training, which is WAY better than anything the 64 squad has done. He likely knows his way around a battle to the death better than anyone here.
Metroid: Ultimately, the 64 team had a advantage in power, but it wasn't enough to match the sheer skill and versatility of the Thousand Year Door team.
Thunder: Sadly for the 64 Partners, their chances of winning were crumpled.
Metroid: The winners are the Thousand Year Door Partners.
