Bully

Learn how to defeat the Bully enemy in Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury. This guide covers its locations and how to handle this common foe.

Hey there! So, you've run into the Bully, huh? Don't sweat it, these guys are pretty common and not too tough once you know what to do. They're basically walking, bouncing hazards that you'll see in quite a few levels, especially in places like the 'Boiling Blue Bully Belt' or the 'Gigantic Seaside Wreck'. You'll even bump into them in Bowser's Fury world, like at 'Fort Flaptrap'.

The main thing to remember about the Bully is that they charge at you. They're not super fast, but they can knock you around if you're not careful. They're pretty straightforward, so you don't need any fancy strategies, but it's good to know how to deal with them efficiently.

How to Beat a Bully:

• Look for the opening: When a Bully spots you, it'll usually lower its head and start to charge. This is your cue!
• Dodge and Attack: The best way to take them down is to dodge their charge and then quickly hit them. A simple jump and stomp on their head usually does the trick. If you're using a power-up like the Super Bell (that's the cat suit!), you can also swipe at them as they charge past.
• Use the Environment (Sometimes): In some levels, you might be able to use the terrain to your advantage. If there's a ledge or a gap nearby, you can sometimes trick the Bully into charging off it.

Where You'll Find Bullies:

You'll encounter these guys in a bunch of different spots. Keep an eye out for them in:

• Mario 3D World - Spooky Seasick Wreck
