Hi Sully big fan been watching since your thousand year door play through and I love it and I rewatch it hundreds of times and your videos made me fall in love for rpg games like paper Mario Mario and Luigi and more and I wanted to thank you for that also please never forget that your awesome
Elder Princess Shroob schould at least be an A. The second phase is so amazing. Her attack patterns are frightening, the atmosphere with the purple sky, and the music… don't even get me started on the awesomeness of the music. Good ranking overall, but Elder Princess Shroob truly deserved a higher place.
he is ranking "final" bosses where the main point of her not being that high is that she is not the final final final boss... understanable but I think you are right imo she is the true final boss and the "final" boss is just a bye bye to a great game.
I love Shiny Robo Bowser a lot, but I honestly prefer the Bowser and Paper Bowser phase of the fight. Like, SRB is epic and all, but for some reason just the raw, mono-a-mono battle with the regular Bowser's just can't be beat imo
I think that you should have separated Elder Princess Shroob between the first phase and the second phase like you did with the two Bowser and the Shiny Robo Bowser. Not at all the same fight. For me, Elder Princess Shroob's second phase deserves at least A. It's literally a summit battle determining the fate of two civilizations. The Shroobs are sacrificing themselves, letting their monarch shoot at their ships to make them crash on the bros! And the Princess herself can attack so many times in one turn. And there's the fact that you have to attack the legs first to lower her body in order to attack the crown to make her vulnerable. It can be a very long and difficult process, and you have to repeat it if you don't manage to kill her before the crown and the legs regenerate. And she has SO. MUCH. LIFE! Many agree to say that she is the hardest battle in all of the Mario & Luigi games. I saw people spend hours on it.
The Bowsers Inside Story final fight is absolute perfection. I remember loving it as a kid but I recently replayed the 3DS version a couple months ago and it absolutely holds up. The music, the attacks and the mechanics everything meshes together so well and results in absolute perfectionnnn. Amazing video!!
They probably won’t because alphadream is bankrupt, but also they have so many other projects to work on that they wont have time to make a whole game for decades old game series
Friendly reminder on the final boss of inside story: bowser was literally willing to fight an endless battle without ever knowing that Mario and Luigi are inside his body that finished off the dark star core. Thus, weakened dark bowser to the point he was finally vulnerable.
S - Dark Bowser, Dark Fawful/Dark star core, Antasma A - Elder princess shroob, Princess Shroob, Bowser and Paper Bowser B - Shiny robo bowser, Cackletta's soul, Dark Fawful C - Bowletta, Dreamy Bowser D - Dry bowser, Cackletta F - Shrowser
I hate to be that guy, but it's a pet peeve of mine. That's not Bowser Jr in Partners in Time. That's Baby Bowser. It's just Bowser in the past. Everyone always gets them confused.
@@megaedge2762 I think the level scaling of Bowser, as well as the last Bros move, have always been very unbalanced in terms of the final boss haha. It feels more narrative than difficult, but I can see wanting a real struggle as well.
Ain't no way this dude put BOTH Princess Shroobs in the D rank and then put Shrowser in the A rank..................that is not even a boss fight it's a mini game
"You think you're going to fight the main villain but you actually somehow manage to fight bowser again which is amazing" lmao that's not where I thought that was going
I'm glad I'm not the only one who fucking despises the giant battles. They just feel so underdeveloped and boring in BiS. Dream Team does much better with them.
I felt like i cheated at dream teams final bosses. and that's because I ground some badge effects that let you freeze an enemy for 2-3 turns, during which time you could wail on whatever boss you're fighting so much so you destroy them.
Yh that’s the thing, imo it was the best damn final boss in the series but the difficulty kinda brings it down sorta like how in super Mario galaxy 2 it’s so epic but it’s so damn ez
My Ranking S Tier: Dark Bowser & Dark Star Core and Shiny Robo Bowser A Tier: Cackletta’s Soul, Elder Princess Shroob and Antasma B: Dark Fawful, Bowser & Paper Bowser and Bowletta C Tier: Dry Bowser, Dreamy Bowser and Princess Shroob D Tier: Cackletta F Tier: Shrowser
In terms of AI, literally. Dreamy Bowser wastes like a third of his turns by grabbing a Bro and then immediately dropping him because he can't execute the attack he picked for his second move while holding a Bro.
5:11 you have to be careful in the final boss begins when you’re in one HP before you get to use any of your power ups. Are you getting your health because we warned if one of her attacks have you get hit basically that is the end of you
Good list! It has been awhile since I played all these games so I only vaguely recall some of these bosses.. I had no idea Dry Bowser was even a boss in Paper Jam. So if Cackletta fused with Sully, would he be Sulletta?
When I played Dream Team for the first time, I managed to get lucky and beat Antasma on my first try, and I am far from a pro, so maybe Antasma isn't as tough as he's made out to be
I still remember my past childhood when I first played Partners in Time and not Superstar Saga because I never had a Game Boy Advance back then, then of course it was Bowser’s Inside Story, Dream Team, Paper Jam, and the remake of Superstar Saga because I never played the original and I didn’t ever play the remake of BIS because I already played the original which I felt like I wasn’t enticed to play the remake but then I of course played the Game Boy Advance online on Switch which is SS which now I would’ve almost have played every single Mario & Luigi game if I would’ve thought of getting the remake of BIS. So yeah, that’s my whole story of my life of my M&L experiences.
If i had to rank the main final bosses it’d go 5. Dreamy bowser (fight was okay but i found it really easy compared to the other final bosses) 4. Cackletta soul (very challenging fight I remember taking about 40 something tries to beat her on the GBA but was having a great time learning her patterns) 3. Dark bowser/ dark star core (all 3 of the others could be interchanged but i had to put them at 3 but the theme is amazing and the fight was very fun and unique) 2. Elder princess shroob (this fight had me traumatized from how hard it is and you can hear in the music and see in the battle the shroobs just want to destroy but it was such a good time) 1. Shiny robo bowser (nostalgia overtakes me because i played this fight when my life seemed like it couldn’t get better and this fight gave me the best time with my favorite final boss song in the mario and luigi series)
My ranking: Dark Bowser: S Dark Star Core: S Dreamy Bowser: S Antasma: A Cackletta: F Bowletta: A Cackletta's Soul: A Princess Shroob: B Elder Princess Shroob: B Shrowser: C Paper Bowser and Bowser: F Shiny Robo Bowser: S
The final boss for paper jam. Was for me an S but what could of been better is that if they added Paper Luigi and hence we have the Real life Mario Bros and Paper Mario Bros working together as 4. Like Partners in time.
Tbh I think Shrowser is one of the weakest ones because it's not even really a fight, but a minigame. The final battle against Elder Princess Shroob has the climactic epic setting & music and is more than suitable to be the ending fight of the game. But then they threw another fight into the ending sequence that uses the same music as the normal Bowser fight midway through the game. Paper Jam in general leaves a sour taste in my mouth because while it IS a concept I've always dreamed of, it was executed in the blandest way imaginable using none of the elements that were why I dreamed of it (letting the M&L and PM original characters exist in the same game). To me it's Mario & Luigi's Sticker Star, so by extension Shiny RoboBowser also was whatever to me. I will forever wish the concept of combining the two series happened during the 2000s instead, where they'd almost certainly have used characters from Superstar Saga, TTYD, etc rather than the basic NSMB cast all around. Overall, my ranking would roughly go: Dark Bowser/Dark Fawful Bug Bowletta/Cackletta's Soul Antasma Dark Fawful Cackletta Dreamy Bowser Elder Princess Shroob Princess Shroob Best Fitness Friends Fawful (Bowser's Minions) Shiny RoboBowser Bowser & Paper Bowser Shrowser
Fr when I played it first i literally thought it was impossible and looked it up and used a op badge to beat him 😭 then I tried again the normal way and it was still damn hard
What about Bowser Jr., the secret final boss in Dream Team? In addition, you forgot the respective final bosses of Minion Quest and Bowser Jr's Journey.
If the Elder princess shroob in D tier is counting the second phase then this is completely wrong more when you put shroobwser as a boss and not just a minigame.
Bro you look like you haven,t played PiT, you literally forgot about Elder Princess shroob 2nd phase, and placing Shrowser on A? Come on don,t joke like that dude

Fortnite
You should do Giant boss fights from the Mario and Luigi Games
All Mario Karts
Paper Mario final bosses

Her attack patterns are frightening, the atmosphere with the purple sky, and the music… don't even get me started on the awesomeness of the music. Good ranking overall, but Elder Princess Shroob truly deserved a higher place.
Don't forget how she summons those UFO's only to mercilessly kill them as part of the attack.
+ she traumatized me as a kid
Bro didn’t even mention or show gameplay of the second phase. Did he forget
he is ranking "final" bosses where the main point of her not being that high is that she is not the final final final boss... understanable but I think you are right imo she is the true final boss and the "final" boss is just a bye bye to a great game.
@@euanjones7117 no he counted this as 1 fight and probably didn't think much of the 2nd phase ig?
Damn right, Shiny Robo Bowser is S Tier! That fight, the music and the scenario is all incredible. My favorite M&L fight for sure.
Yoooooo. Pksparkxx. What's up? I haven't watched your videos in a minute. I gotta start binge watching
@@CreativeStoryteller35 Same

Dark Bowser/Fawful/core is the perfection of the Mario and Luigi franchise final bosses and ties heavily to the theme of the game and gameplay.
Your Mario and Luigi LPs made up a lot of my watch time back in the day, glad to see you're still here years later.
The Bowsers Inside Story final fight is absolute perfection. I remember loving it as a kid but I recently replayed the 3DS version a couple months ago and it absolutely holds up.
The music, the attacks and the mechanics everything meshes together so well and results in absolute perfectionnnn.
Amazing video!!
6:51 That's Baby Bowser, not Bowser Jr.
How do people still not know the difference between the two, I don’t mean to be rude, I just want to understand.
@@elimcneill691it’s the bib. Junior has a clown smile bib, while baby bowser has a regular white bib.
We need a new mario/luigi game!
Agreed but sadly alpha dream when bankrupt so unless Nintendo decides to pick up and continue the series we can only hope
We could but alpha dream went bankrupt :(
@@Krishavoc14 I still think there is hope for a new game. Immsure nintendo can figure something out
Um… actually Alphadream are dead, idiot!
They probably won’t because alphadream is bankrupt, but also they have so many other projects to work on that they wont have time to make a whole game for decades old game series
Pretty good tier list overall. I do agree that Dark Bowser, Dreamy Bowser, and Shiny Robo Bowser were pretty amazing final bosses.
Friendly reminder on the final boss of inside story: bowser was literally willing to fight an endless battle without ever knowing that Mario and Luigi are inside his body that finished off the dark star core. Thus, weakened dark bowser to the point he was finally vulnerable.
S - Dark Bowser, Dark Fawful/Dark star core, Antasma
A - Elder princess shroob, Princess Shroob, Bowser and Paper Bowser
B - Shiny robo bowser, Cackletta's soul, Dark Fawful
C - Bowletta, Dreamy Bowser
D - Dry bowser, Cackletta
F - Shrowser
They remember Dry Bowser, but not Bowser Jr, or Bowser X, truly a shame.
Is it just me or is the mario and luigi series currently back in popularity??
Can it stay like that?
I hate to be that guy, but it's a pet peeve of mine. That's not Bowser Jr in Partners in Time. That's Baby Bowser. It's just Bowser in the past. Everyone always gets them confused.
I forgive you for being that guy. I thank you, actually. Everyone does mix them up.
Dark Bowser is obviously the best one because you get to play as Bowser, and that's fucking baller
It’s a real shame that the fight has literally no difficulty at all.
@@megaedge2762 I think the level scaling of Bowser, as well as the last Bros move, have always been very unbalanced in terms of the final boss haha. It feels more narrative than difficult, but I can see wanting a real struggle as well.
Im here from the future, brotherships final boss is really good
A rank Shrowser is the hottest take I’ve ever seen
Ain't no way this dude put BOTH Princess Shroobs in the D rank and then put Shrowser in the A rank..................that is not even a boss fight it's a mini game
Another thing in dream team, I'm actually pretty proud of bowser he knew he was gonna get betrayed so he did it first.
"You think you're going to fight the main villain but you actually somehow manage to fight bowser again which is amazing" lmao that's not where I thought that was going
Love respect for ze boi antas
This is my favourite Games series ever with Mario and Luigi Dream Team being my favourite. The fact we don't have one unique game on switch is sad
YOUNG PRINCESS SHROOB WAS EASY?
YOU GOTTA BE JOKING
Paper Jam Bros is not the best Mario&Luigi game.
But I gotta say: I LOVE the team of 3 gameplay
Love the dark bowser fight. Absolutely goated
Bowser’s inside story has the best bosses ever (except fawful express and all the giant bowser fights)
I'm glad I'm not the only one who fucking despises the giant battles. They just feel so underdeveloped and boring in BiS. Dream Team does much better with them.
@@draccqueen1770 true but even with that the game is redeemed by having the best final boss in the game
I felt like i cheated at dream teams final bosses. and that's because I ground some badge effects that let you freeze an enemy for 2-3 turns, during which time you could wail on whatever boss you're fighting so much so you destroy them.
Don't worry I did that too. I felt bad afterwards, so next time I play I'll fight him legitimately
Love dark bowser but it was kinda easy
Yh that’s the thing, imo it was the best damn final boss in the series but the difficulty kinda brings it down sorta like how in super Mario galaxy 2 it’s so epic but it’s so damn ez
Bowletta higher than the two princess Schroob... Bowletta deserved to be in the D rank
Putting the random final Bowser and Shroob battle over the actual final Boss is wild
My Ranking
S Tier: Dark Bowser & Dark Star Core and Shiny Robo Bowser
A Tier: Cackletta’s Soul, Elder Princess Shroob and Antasma
B: Dark Fawful, Bowser & Paper Bowser and Bowletta
C Tier: Dry Bowser, Dreamy Bowser and Princess Shroob
D Tier: Cackletta
F Tier: Shrowser
Nahhh you put elder princess shroob in D tier? That fight is such a cool fight though
Bowletta always looked creepy to me sometimes
Great video. How come you didn't include the final bosses of Minion Quest and Jr's Journey or the secret boss in Dream Team?
Given that he included the base form of cackletta, he has no idea what he's talking about.
@Simply Mark That’s kinda harsh isn't it?
The truth only hurts if you let it.
I literally just beat dreamy bowser right before or right after this video came out, what a coincidence
I already know this list is about to be goated
Nice another tier list video, i’d recommend ranking every normal mario kart 8 track and then rank all the dlc tracks once it ends
I personally thought Dreamy Bowser was the dumbest final boss ever, but I understand we all have different opinions
In terms of AI, literally. Dreamy Bowser wastes like a third of his turns by grabbing a Bro and then immediately dropping him because he can't execute the attack he picked for his second move while holding a Bro.
@@rainpooper7088 I don’t mean dumb as in his ai is stupid, I mean dumb as in uninspiring.
5:11 you have to be careful in the final boss begins when you’re in one HP before you get to use any of your power ups. Are you getting your health because we warned if one of her attacks have you get hit basically that is the end of you
Surprised you didn’t count the Dark Star as its own “Final Boss” since that thing was played out as a Final Boss in the remake
Good list! It has been awhile since I played all these games so I only vaguely recall some of these bosses.. I had no idea Dry Bowser was even a boss in Paper Jam.
So if Cackletta fused with Sully, would he be Sulletta?
Let's gooo I love the tier list!!!!
You calling a lot of the bosses easy is just showing that you’re super good at these games lol
Mmmm what about the second phase of the elder shroob princess?
Hey sully
Next Tuesday you should rank your favorite Zelda games or characters
Next video, RANK ALL PAPER MARIO FINAL BOSSES
I now got all Mario and Luigi series except the remake
Putting Cackleta's battle at F tier is a crime
Fawful is awesome!
I like fawful and antasma they was my favorite villain I was disappointed when they lost early and wasn’t the final boss.
When I played Dream Team for the first time, I managed to get lucky and beat Antasma on my first try, and I am far from a pro, so maybe Antasma isn't as tough as he's made out to be
Dark bowser really does deserve the S rank
I still remember my past childhood when I first played Partners in Time and not Superstar Saga because I never had a Game Boy Advance back then, then of course it was Bowser’s Inside Story, Dream Team, Paper Jam, and the remake of Superstar Saga because I never played the original and I didn’t ever play the remake of BIS because I already played the original which I felt like I wasn’t enticed to play the remake but then I of course played the Game Boy Advance online on Switch which is SS which now I would’ve almost have played every single Mario & Luigi game if I would’ve thought of getting the remake of BIS.

Cackletta: F
Bowletta: A
Cackletta's Soul: A
Princess Shroob: B
Elder Princess Shroob: B
Shrowser: C
Paper Bowser and Bowser: F
Shiny Robo Bowser: S
My guess antasma was really strong in the past since he was stuck in the dream world way to long he became weak.
not that related but i'm willing to forgive Paper Jam it being "Mario but RPG" more then any other, if Paper Lugi would be playable
11:54 Appropriate Dark Bowser is the best Mario villain of all time.
Am I the only one who thinks he looks like Gigachad? XD
W vid, you should rank the paper Mario series next
The final boss for paper jam. Was for me an S but what could of been better is that if they added Paper Luigi and hence we have the Real life Mario Bros and Paper Mario Bros working together as 4. Like Partners in time.

Dreamy Bowser
Elder Princess Shroob
Princess Shroob
Best Fitness Friends

I just realized every final battle involves bowser
Sully i think you missed up that not bowser jr in partner in time that baby bowser
Yeah I meant baby bowser lol
@@SullyPwnz but still great content as always
Why didnt you talk about the elder princess shroobs final phase where she becomes giant and uses tentacles to attack?
Ya know thats a good question, how many times have you played superstar saga on the channel now? Like, 4 or 5?
3
How do you record 3DS gameplay
I really want another mario and luigi game....
My favorite bosses have to be dreamy bowser, elder shroob final form, and cackletta 💜
Bro bowser cant have a break hes getting poses left and right and being killed bro gift of vacations
What about Bowser Jr., the secret final boss in Dream Team? In addition, you forgot the respective final bosses of Minion Quest and Bowser Jr's Journey.
Also Dark Star and Bowser X
How are the secret last bosses not on this list? They are considered final bosses too no?
Bowser junior?
I think you mean baby bowser
No these are 2 different characters
@@Nakla But that is Baby Bowser in PIT
@@Jessica_Schweser exactly
Paper Mario final bosses. Or just normal bosses
Ok so where dark star and giant bowser from dream team?
Bowser Jr left the chat
If the Elder princess shroob in D tier is counting the second phase then this is completely wrong more when you put shroobwser as a boss and not just a minigame.
7:40 Really? I was always told that a D is a bad grade.
I'm thinking of getting partners in time or dream team what should I get?
Both
@@mattdepka1699 that works too
Partners in time via emulation and dream team by brought it
As someone who had this dilemma in the past, I just bought both
I have every game and they're all fun to play. If you can afford both it's definitely worth it.
9 minutes in and i hope he comes back to elder princess shroob
Dreamy browser should be number 1
Hey Sully! Did you watch codename: kids next door?
Next should be Mario party
you did NOT just put shrowser in a but elder princess shroob in d
What nfl team do you go for sully
Mario And Luigi superstar saga bosses are just jokes
6:51 Baby Bowser not bowser Jr king Bowser as a baby

Who let bro cook? Dont cook please... Not the worst list, but its pretty bad
Yeah no ill have to disagree on elder princess shroob. Easy S
