Walkthrough:

1. Boss: Durmite
   • Location: Nerve Cluster
   • Stats: HP/C. Medal: 326 / 489, EXP: 300, Coins: 120
   • Item Drops: Syrup Jar, POW Gloves
   • Attacks:
     • Tackle: Counter with a Hammer.
     • Silk String: Jump over it. If Mario/Luigi is caught, they'll be sucked up and shot at the other brother; jump to dodge.
     • Vacuum & Spit: Jump over the shot Biffidus.
     • Straw: Jump/Hammer it immediately, or the Durmite will restore HP! The Straw has 16/24 HP.
   • Notices:
     • Weak Biffidus enemies (10/15 HP) might join; they only tackle (jump to counter).
   • Strategy: This is a straightforward battle. Focus on dealing damage. The Green Shell Special is recommended for most of the fight. Always prioritize attacking the Straw when it appears. During the Tackle, wait until all the Durmite's segments turn red before countering.
2. Boss: Bowser's Castle
   • Location: Dimble Woods
   • Stats: HP/C. Medal: 535 / ---, EXP: 380, Coins: 200
   • Item Drops: Star Candy
   • Attacks:
     • Tackle: Counter by tapping the button and sliding the stylus along the arrow.
     • Airship Strike: Counter with a Fireball by tapping a point in the marked area.
     • Spiky Enemy Release: Use your Fire Breath by blowing into the mic for as long as possible (don't be too close!).
   • Notices: This is a tutorial for giant battles.
   • Strategy: This battle teaches you the mechanics of giant fights. Offensive punching involves tapping and sliding the stylus. Fire Breath is activated by blowing into the mic. For defensive punching, tap in the marked area. For the Fireball defense, tap a point for the fireball to shoot through. Don't overuse Fire Breath, or Bowser will run low on power. Flame the castle and the spiky enemies when they appear.
