When I was little, I remember reading somewhere in petalburg or something about there being one other dragon after gloomtail. I played the game a bunch after I finished it and never saw the third dragon so I ended up thinking it was just a legend after all. It wasn’t until I got to the bottom of this cave that my mouth dropped when bonetail appeared. Most of my items had been used up and some partners were low on health. I went in for sure I was going to die, but atleast dying getting to witness bonetail lol. I can’t remember exactly how but I actually managed to beat him with a hammer, gradual syrup and wedding cake to restore hp. I was so proud of myself lol good game
What's scary about him is that he probably was a lot stronger back during the Queen's rain of terror on the land when he still had skin. Then most likely would have gotten weaker do to being stuck in this pit and pretty much dying. Same goes for the queen. The version of her we fought was her just barely waking up yet still was extremely powerful.
Just beat it again after years. Used no FP, just power plus, all or nothing, P-up D-down, and jumping on it with bobbery. I've mastered the superguard and that makes a huge difference
UnknownLegend1296 the easiest way is reallocating your stats to only have 5hp then get a bunch of power rush badges so you do 2 atk more when you are in danger. You can defeat bonetail and the final boss in one turn easily :p
I BEAT BONETAIL! It was an awesome fight. I had no partners or FP left. I used the "Sweet Feast" special, that really saved me :) One of the best things in my life so far :D Love this game
I remember getting to the 100th floor and not being prepared for what actually awaited. Still surprised I won on the first go. I kept screaming "Where's that damn save block"
This was like one of the very few games I kept replaying and never got bored of it. Kept making badge pures, found out about danger mario without looking at guides, Goombella was always the first partner I kept maxing out... Nintendo should port this to VC for the switch, hopefully. Along with Pikmin 2
What I really want is another true Paper Mario Game like this one. But they're so hell-bent on innovating every kind of game they make that I think it hurts the outcome (ie: Sticker Star - I never finished it and the limited # of attacks and lack of story killed it for me) etc.
Yeah every release has been for the 3/DS version not including super paper mario...which I don't think counts as a paper mario game anyways. Nintendo should've been aware that paper mario and TTYD was a huge success so why the change? They should reintroduce the series for the Switch.
The first time I beat Bonetail I wasn't even really trying. I wanted to see how far I could get through the pit before I started chapter 5 and I when I hit 90 I wanted to turn back because I had all the items, then I thought, 'F*%k it! I made it this far, why not go all the way?' And through AMAZING amounts of Lucky misses, I managed to beat him pretty easily. Months later when I started a new file and went through the pit with all but chapter 8 cleared, I could barely make it to the 50th floor! Video game (il)logic, I will always love it!! Great game!
I remember in the Glitz Pit when I got 100 Star Points; it was unbelievable. I've never seen two Amazy Dayzees appear like that before; well; it's been a while since I got that far. Great job; that's awesome
I don't think Bone Tail is main issue, I think it's getting through all the trials and fighting Bone Tail is the big problem. .....Mostly Bone Tail.....
panther5896 Bonetail is still tough to face more tough than Shadow Queen it’s a battle you really gotta prepare for ... You can’t just defeat it blindly and recklessly
I think things would've been SOOOOO much easier if at floor 99 u get a SAVE point, that way if u fail u can go back and finish it, it seems like such a hard trek to get to him that by the time u do HOURS have passed.
A fun boss, hopefully Nintendo makes a paper mario game like ttyd or the first one. Just re-played this game and did with all the PP badges, P-Up, Mega Rush, Close Call, Lucky Day; fought the boss with only 5 hp or under. Glass canon is so much fun, risk is high, damage is high

Interesting to see someone playing this without spamming Gale Force on the late enemies. It just works so well on the Wizzerds, Swampires, Poison Puffs, etc. Flying enemies are much more vulnerable to it, but it works on most.
When I first spent a whole 3 hours of getting to Bonetail, I made it to floor 90 and I was like "PLEASE LET ME FACE AT LEAST 4 OF THOSE PURPLE BOMB OBS SO I CAN HEAL UP" until floor 95 there was a puny, my face was like O.O. "THANK YOOOOOOUUUUUU" Because the way how I wanted to die, was Bonetail doing the honors until all of a sudden 10 to 15 minutes of fighting, his health was at 120, then he healed himself and I said "DAMMIT" and then after knocking his health down to 90 and then he healed himself again and I said "FFFFFFFUUUUUUUCK" and after knocking his health down back to 100, I was at 16 health and Vivian 24 health and I believe I had 1 Super Shroom and 1 Life Shroom and I was really stressed out and I said "ok that's it, it's over for me I have no choice but to use a Super Shroom." So I scrolled down to all my items until suddenly a miracle has happened, I had 1 Ultra Shroom left!!! I had a moment of silence, my face was in deep shock and more likely I was in silence, and then I said this to the top of my lungs "YYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Ever since I used that Ultra Shroom, the fight immediately turned into my favor and I ended up defeating it. And I celebrating with literal tears coming down my eyes, you guys don't understand of much stress I have been having for all those hours. And I know that I typed too much but DAMN that was the most stressfull experience that I had in my LIFE!!!
Dude bosses like Bonetail are suppose to push you to your limits like that. Final Bosses are part of the plot and as such are made to be beaten within the casual skill set while remaining difficult. Bonetail though is suppose to test you not only on fighting but survival as well. You already have to go down these floors just to get to him and it's quite possible that you've already wasted most if not all your items. The best part is the trial getting to him sharpens your skills considerably. These bosses are in the literal sense of the word "Boss Fights" and they're my favorite type of bosses. I remember dying and leaving before getting to Bonetail so many times that I started mastering the supergaurd mechanic. Hell most the time I didn't even bother guarding cause whenever I got hurt I'd just heal up with Star Power. But these pits really made you conserve your shit. And when I finally got to this asshole I was completely unprepared and yet I actually managed to beat him on my first try. It was so stressful and yet because I was pushed against the wall I started doing better. When I get stressed I become hyper focused to the point I start playing with absolute perfection. I hate when I'm pushed that far but man is the rush so good. Which is why I mostly play games on their hardest difficulties now. If I can I just get right into the hardest mode possible and man does it suck playing on easier difficulties now. Like Dante's Inferno Hard mode is God of War Normal mode. Lol
I think as you get older, you get immensely better at video games. Like I remember just beating a game (like Rayman 2) was such a huuuuge accomplishment for me as a kid, but nowadays beating a game is expected ya know.
Losing this battle is frustrating as hell. I've beaten him twice, but you have to plan out a strategy for this battle. If I don't level up soon enough, I'll keep appealing to the crowd during other fights to build up star power. Charging helps quite a bit, and guard well against his different fire breathing moves. I never try to superguard them, I just normal guard just to avoid getting frozen or confused.
Farthest I reached on mm my 1st/2nd Try with around 80/90 After that all me partners were dead and all I used was koops (Everyone was dead) and I was shit at Super guarding at the time but now its so easy lol
I used to farm Amayze Dayzees for levels, then spam BP a lot of the time. I pop on 5 Charges, 5 Jumpmans, and as many Flower Savers as I can. Foolproof plan.
Niiiiice. That's something that I'd probably like, but I always try to play through this game quickly...although sometimes I'll take 50 hours to beat it even though it really takes 30 on average.
@veggiemetal7812 The only thing that’s truly scarier is that all three dragons are created from dark magic that’s why bonetail was still alive it should have been dead but it wasn’t….
I beat bonetail on my first try. I played defensively. I wouldn't say he is harder than the shadow queen because I lost to her twice. Bonetail was definitely the most annoying boss though. Even with my defense stat being at 4, he still dealt high damage to me, and kept healing himself when I brought him down. I went through all of my healing items and star power to beat him, he made me use up all of my resources and had me on my last wheels. I was lucky enough to end him though. It was a long fight.
@kittygirlrachel when I first got to bonetail I never thought too much of it, when I saw bonetail I was actually shocked about it being there, but what’s really scary about bonetail is how it’s still alive it’s proof the shadow queen created the three dragons through dark magic.
@@OmegaVideoGameGod Honestly, all I remembered was that I saw my sisters fight it, but I had to google it when I started playing again because mentally, I thought I just had some sort of weird fever dream or something that it existed, since you don't encounter it unless you choose to, pretty much.
Yeah I agree I just remember there being three dragons in the game but I never knew where the third one was I never read bonetails name I so I didn’t expect it.
Love this fight, I beat him after finishing chapter 6. I used Goombella with rally wink, 2 power plus, boo sheets, piercing blow and Bobbery maxed made this a cake walk. Maybe I sucked as a kid, but I remember back in the day this fight was really hard.
I remember vividly doing the pit of 100 trials a couple years ago and hanging by a thread by the time I got to bonetail but still managed to beat him. To this day I can’t believe I won
I know it's hard to believe, but I CAN actually button mash that fast. I have a video showing it called "Fastest button masher ever" on my channel. Also, those few superguard counters were pure luck.
aRandomPersonThatJustCommentsOnOtherPeoplesChannels Wha--- I thought I was hitting the limit on how fast the meter could go. How can you go twice as fast D:
starfoxfan007 i dont really know ive had time on my hands for reasons id rather not mention but honestly ive broken a few controllers (id like to note two glowing eyes were watching me as i posted this it know im here 0_0)
Bonetail is not really that hard if you come prepared. When I fought him, I always made sure I have enough for Power Lift and also I made sure I had the Item Hog badge on. Vivian was my partner because to me she is the most reliable.
Recently went through the pit after clearing chapter 4 with 10 hp, 10 fp, and the rest invested in bp. And omg I barley managed to defeat bonetail at the skin of my teeth because i only had one lifeshroom and one boosheet to use before entering the pit meaning I was very unprepared.
I won this fight tonight, but it wasn't without it being fairly close due to not being lucky enough to level up before the fight and poor item management leading up to it. I was only able to clutch it out thanks to a combination of using sweet treat every time I could along with Ms.Mowz's smooch to keep my health and hers such that I survived the whole fight. It wouldn't have been nearly that difficult if I didn't also make the mistake of trying art attack on a giant dragon and therefore only getting a measly 4 damage out of it cause it was so strict with it being around the whole body of him. Figures I won the roulette when I was about to win anyway too so that was no help finally getting star power back, lol. I legit had no idea he was the final fight though, figured there was a final boss and wanted to be surprised and I sure was by his 200hp. lol
I did a pit of 100 trials run and all of my partners died, so I had to fight Bonetail with just Mario, and I had 10 hp left and beat him. I kept doing sweet treat
I will be playing through this game again, 100%-ing it sometime soon, and I will attempt to take on this beast...I've only ever made it to the eighty-somethingth floor.
I did the whole pit first try. The pit of a hundred trials is, from what i've deduced -- an endurance test. I mixed and matched diffrent badges, utilized ALLL my partners, got TWO Amazy Dayzees, it was absolutely wild. I FINISHED the main game, just jumped right into this, played all night, and got this all first try. Now, as I said, I mixed and matched several badges, but here's the ones I ALWAYS had on. HP plus badges, FP plus badges, HP partner badges, charge badge, charge partner badge, quick change, feeling fine, feeling fine P, and lucky day was really useful once I got it. Bonetail is a direct reflection of the pit itself, you have to endure against Bonetail's attacks and just keep chipping away, all it took was using spring jumps and Bobbery's basic bomb attack, some charging here and there, and using showstopper like twice, to prevail, of course you have to ABSOLUTELY keep your guard up. Items? Get like 6 Ultra Shrooms, 6 Jammin Jellies, and the rest in Life Shrooms. Make sure to get a SPECIAL Spell from Merluvlee, trust me, you'll need it. And uh, honest to god. Bonetail is nowhere near as hard as Shadow Queen, lmao. If you manage to get there with full hp and fp, you should be fine, like i did. Shadow Queen? You literally GET full health, fp, everything and she STILL had me struggling on.
Nice job beating bone tail! :D I beat him too and let me tell you that Bonetail and all the monsters in the lowest levels of the pit of 100 trails were tough to beat! :P >:O Bonetail being at the lowest levels reminds me of this bible passage Revelation 20:1-15 for that bible passage says that a dragon (which is the Devil Satan) had been thrown into the bottomless pit and not to mention Bonetail's sister Hooktail and the Shadow Queen remind me of The Devil Satan for they try to bargain with Mario with offers that he should refuse or else he will get hurt or game over for that is just like how the Devil Satan and his demons make deals with people that often get them into trouble or hell which makes me wonder if the Shadow Queen really is the equivalent of Satan in the Paper Mario universe pardon my religious talk! :D
Holy shit, dude! Two Amazee Dayzee and you beat both of them?! OMG...YOU ARE THE LUCKIEST S.O.B ALIVE! 100 Star Points! Oh my god, man! Fantastic work!
Just beat Bonetail in the remake. Was so unsure I would've even made it but Flurrie kept getting rounds where she blew away every enemy with Gale Force plus a super clutch level up on floor 98 made me confident enough to take him on and I won on my first try.
I never use Flurrie, she's so damn ugly lol. Goombella, Yoshi, Bobbery and Vivian are my go-to partners. Good job tho. I haven't gotten to Bonetail just yet in the remake, about to start chapter 6 (or 7?) to go to Fahr Outpost.
holy shit this boss give so much problems i lost half of my items beucase this godamn boss and take so long to defeat him holy moly (sorry for my bad english im brazillian i dont know how to speak english correctly)
***** It's only hard if you don't have a good amount of items after you get to him. Also, some sort of strategy is good so that he doesn't destroy you. I usually have a lot of power+ badges on so that I can deal lots of damage. Be sure to use the Feeling Fine badge too so you don't get frozen/poisoned/etc - otherwise, you're kinda screwed. My main strategy for doing the pit itself is to ocassionally use the Sweet Treat or Sweet Feast star moves to keep your HP and FP up, so that you can preserve your items for Bonetail.
I used my life shrooms earlier. And it's ok since I was using power buffs on mario mainly to dish out more damage. I ran through my partners on purpose haha.
Oh dear god... You couldn't have been stuck with a worse audience. Power Lift + uber strategy = Pit and Bonetail sweep. Seriously, the uber strategy is OP as hell. It makes the last 30 floors and Bonetial a joke. I killed Bowser, Kammy, and Grouds in one turn with that strategy using Yoshi.
Yeah, I could just play normally and use other badges but I always find myself trying to beat this game quickly over a vacation...so I just buff myself up with power plus badges and try to dish out large numbers of damage haha.
DarkBirgon Oh, I just watched it, but I don't use a bunch of special items or partner peril badges. I just use a few power plus badges, feeling fine, and charge my partner and mario up, then use power lift. Then for items I just have a good amount of hp and fp, nothing complicated like your uber strategy xD
starfoxfan007 Believe it or not I came up with that all by myself 3 years ago. I just now made it into a video to help out a few people. Thank you for watching my video.
okay thats insane with them Amazy Dayzees How can 2 Amazy Dayzees instantly give you a LV UP thats mind-blowing and I usually only get to kill one of them in the Twilight Forest but yep Im Amazy Dayzee Hunting now since I got a memory refresher on them now.
I died on my first attempt going after Bonetail but after second try as soon as I got to him I literally thought I was out of healing items I dropped his health down to 100 next thing you know he started self healing which pissed me off. By the time I dropped him down to 60 I was at 10 health next thing I said was "I need a damn miracle :(" so I scrolled through my item list next thing you know, I found an Ultra Shrooms which LITERALLY turned EVERYTHING AROUND I used it on me went back to full health which was 60 (of course me not my teammate because I was on the verge of dying), then I literally yelled "OKAY BITCH LET'S FINISH THIS" and suddenly beaten him with 20 health left 😰😰😰😰 and I had him tallied toooooo so double win for me.
I meant the "tactics" option when you're in a battle. It'll appear there when you have the badge equipped, your partner requires their own unique "partner charge" badge however. Each charge in battle costs 1FP.
NO! I REFUSE! HOW DARE YOU ATTEMPT TO HINDER MY SUPERHUMAN PAPER MARIO ABILITIES MORTAL! RAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH (POWER SMASH) (11 DAMAGE) (STYLISH!) (STYLISH!)
+Jonathan Cangelosi There's a development badge, you hold down R or L, and it automatically performs all action commands for you flawlessly. Also does all the stylish stuff for ya.
well i was a determined kid ;P i made sure to have 100 hp 50 or 60 fp and around 69 bp. i wanted to make SURE i beat bonetail lol. I actually still have that save file and im level 42
@Jonathon Cangelosi: There's a video that I have where I show how I press the buttons fast in this game. Although I don't show myself pressing the R button really fast, it's the same method. It's my video called "fastest button masher ever"
starfoxfan007 no problem man I've played this only a few times (every time the data would be corrupted and I would lose all my data, but I got a new memory card, so that shouldn't happen anymore), and I have NEVER been this good
Jacob Aldrich Oh the pain of corrupted memory cards D: I don't think my gamecube memory cards have ever gotten corrupted before, but my Nintendo 64 memory pak definitely has corrupted itself plenty of times.
starfoxfan007 yea I know...it sucked I would beat the game, go back and play it, and all (I mean ALL) my data would be lost (corrupted) I would get sooooooo pissed
Thank you :) I'll do my best to start uploading videos again this summer after I graduate when I have time to do stuff. Maybe some Goldeneye n64, the world is not enough 007 n64, banjo kazooie, star fox 64, smash bros, and maybe some Zelda stuff too :D
Kind of risky taking on Bonetail at level 31. And you basically just let your baby Yoshi be a meat shield for you. You didn't even try very hard to protect him.
Level 33... (Post Chapter 7). All Crystal Stars, all Ultra partners. Pierce Hammer + 2 remaining Life Shroom and Ultra Shrooms + Flurrie. I only survived the exact turns to beat him with 10 hp and no more hp and fp recovers. But is possible, That's the only battle where Flurrie was Useful.
Just beat him on lvl 26 < Used all my allies as shields Lucky Day and pretty lucky > ran into so many Amazee Dazees (( Equip Simplifier )) For Bone Tail
I beat the 100 level Trials before. ^w^ Here some advice.. Skip a lot of levels by finding Pungry (The Mover) and pay him to skip 2 to 5 levels down. That was easy.^O^
It's funny how you beat a dragon that's tougher than the final boss but you only get 1 star point
Well, to be fair the final boss also only gives you one star point.
And yet golden flowers give you 40 each
kylicy j
Val kazhdan thanks for the info for that boss.
Amusing, it should have given an instant level up... (unless you're lv 99, which you can't level up anymore :P)
Best paper mario for me. Loved everything from it.

Agreed.
@@bluewulvSo that’s why Vivian got picked on by her sisters then

Floor 100 with a big ass bone dragon - gives 1 star point.
....okay Nintendo.

I've died to Bonetail, when he has had 3 HP left, and another time when he had 18 HP left.
“hes probably stronger than the final boss“
lol
It’s hard because of the remaining strength you have left mag not be much. Otherwise you’re golden. I find Crump 2.0 and the Shadow Queen much harder.

Same here man, my heart was pounding alot, my body feels weak believing I’m gonna die to him.

Bonetail though is suppose to test you not only on fighting but survival as well. You already have to go down these floors just to get to him and it's quite possible that you've already wasted most if not all your items. The best part is the trial getting to him sharpens your skills considerably. These bosses are in the literal sense of the word "Boss Fights" and they're my favorite type of bosses.
I remember dying and leaving before getting to Bonetail so many times that I started mastering the supergaurd mechanic. Hell most the time I didn't even bother guarding cause whenever I got hurt I'd just heal up with Star Power. But these pits really made you conserve your shit. And when I finally got to this asshole I was completely unprepared and yet I actually managed to beat him on my first try. It was so stressful and yet because I was pushed against the wall I started doing better. When I get stressed I become hyper focused to the point I start playing with absolute perfection. I hate when I'm pushed that far but man is the rush so good. Which is why I mostly play games on their hardest difficulties now. If I can I just get right into the hardest mode possible and man does it suck playing on easier difficulties now. Like Dante's Inferno Hard mode is God of War Normal mode. Lol
Beating Bonetail as a child was such an achivement for me back then xD
Yes... all for your 1 Star Point! XD
Weird how as a kid it took me like years but then recently when I started a new game I bet the whole game and bonetail in like a week
Hell yeah, I was never able to do it until my sister proved that it was possible.
I think as you get older, you get immensely better at video games. Like I remember just beating a game (like Rayman 2) was such a huuuuge accomplishment for me as a kid, but nowadays beating a game is expected ya know.
Losing this battle is frustrating as hell. I've beaten him twice, but you have to plan out a strategy for this battle. If I don't level up soon enough, I'll keep appealing to the crowd during other fights to build up star power. Charging helps quite a bit, and guard well against his different fire breathing moves. I never try to superguard them, I just normal guard just to avoid getting frozen or confused.
Farthest floor I reached at 7:
91
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Farthest I reached on mm my 1st/2nd Try with around 80/90 After that all me partners were dead and all I used was koops (Everyone was dead) and I was shit at Super guarding at the time but now its so easy lol
Mason Massie Yea. I kinda just use koops or someone to disable enemies while I use sweet treat to get free health and fp points back during the pit.
starfoxfan007 I'm currently replaying the game but on an emulator sadly this time I wish there was a harder difficulty in this game
I love how the player takes so long to decide how to finish Bonetail
I used to farm Amayze Dayzees for levels, then spam BP a lot of the time. I pop on 5 Charges, 5 Jumpmans, and as many Flower Savers as I can. Foolproof plan.
Niiiiice. That's something that I'd probably like, but I always try to play through this game quickly...although sometimes I'll take 50 hours to beat it even though it really takes 30 on average.
"You got 100 star points"
...
WAIT WHAT?!?!
o yea bb
Lugmillord I don't even fucking know how
Giving him no eyes is such a great detail. Super scary.
Right? It’s almost like he’s a skeleton or something 🧐…..😅😅😅
@veggiemetal7812 The only thing that’s truly scarier is that all three dragons are created from dark magic that’s why bonetail was still alive it should have been dead but it wasn’t….
I beat bonetail on my first try. I played defensively. I wouldn't say he is harder than the shadow queen because I lost to her twice. Bonetail was definitely the most annoying boss though. Even with my defense stat being at 4, he still dealt high damage to me, and kept healing himself when I brought him down. I went through all of my healing items and star power to beat him, he made me use up all of my resources and had me on my last wheels. I was lucky enough to end him though. It was a long fight.
Dragon breath attacks deal piercing damage, so Defense won't protect you. He breathes on most turns even though he has a bite and stomp attack.
This boss scared me when I was younger honestly. I laugh about it now that I can safely watch others fight Bonetail.
@kittygirlrachel when I first got to bonetail I never thought too much of it, when I saw bonetail I was actually shocked about it being there, but what’s really scary about bonetail is how it’s still alive it’s proof the shadow queen created the three dragons through dark magic.
@@OmegaVideoGameGod Honestly, all I remembered was that I saw my sisters fight it, but I had to google it when I started playing again because mentally, I thought I just had some sort of weird fever dream or something that it existed, since you don't encounter it unless you choose to, pretty much.
Yeah I agree I just remember there being three dragons in the game but I never knew where the third one was I never read bonetails name I so I didn’t expect it.
I beat Bonetail on my first try with no healing items. I AM SO HAPPY, IVE BEEN TRYING FOR YEARS
That doesn’t make any sense if you’ve been trying for “years” but it’s your first time..
Love this fight, I beat him after finishing chapter 6.
I used Goombella with rally wink, 2 power plus, boo sheets, piercing blow and Bobbery maxed made this a cake walk.
Maybe I sucked as a kid, but I remember back in the day this fight was really hard.
I remember vividly doing the pit of 100 trials a couple years ago and hanging by a thread by the time I got to bonetail but still managed to beat him. To this day I can’t believe I won
This boss battle was hard for me to reach and to beat!
I dont want to believe this was legit. Nobody clicks A for the supernova that fast
I know it's hard to believe, but I CAN actually button mash that fast. I have a video showing it called "Fastest button masher ever" on my channel. Also, those few superguard counters were pure luck.
I found a fairly easy way to do it, use your index finger m8, for some odd reason it's way faster... I don't know why, just poke the A button
I go like 2x faster than that is that bad?
aRandomPersonThatJustCommentsOnOtherPeoplesChannels Wha--- I thought I was hitting the limit on how fast the meter could go. How can you go twice as fast D:
starfoxfan007 i dont really know ive had time on my hands for reasons id rather not mention but honestly ive broken a few controllers (id like to note two glowing eyes were watching me as i posted this it know im here 0_0)
Bonetail is not really that hard if you come prepared. When I fought him, I always made sure I have enough for Power Lift and also I made sure I had the Item Hog badge on. Vivian was my partner because to me she is the most reliable.
"You got *100* star points!"
Recently went through the pit after clearing chapter 4 with 10 hp, 10 fp, and the rest invested in bp. And omg I barley managed to defeat bonetail at the skin of my teeth because i only had one lifeshroom and one boosheet to use before entering the pit meaning I was very unprepared.
***** I could never do that shit 0_0
You got 1 Star Point!
Frankly, I increase my badge points. If you level up in these last ten rooms, increase the heart points. You'll need them...
I won this fight tonight, but it wasn't without it being fairly close due to not being lucky enough to level up before the fight and poor item management leading up to it. I was only able to clutch it out thanks to a combination of using sweet treat every time I could along with Ms.Mowz's smooch to keep my health and hers such that I survived the whole fight. It wouldn't have been nearly that difficult if I didn't also make the mistake of trying art attack on a giant dragon and therefore only getting a measly 4 damage out of it cause it was so strict with it being around the whole body of him. Figures I won the roulette when I was about to win anyway too so that was no help finally getting star power back, lol. I legit had no idea he was the final fight though, figured there was a final boss and wanted to be surprised and I sure was by his 200hp. lol
I tried to get to bonetail, died on floor 69 xDDD
Madison T I nearly died too! Those weird ass machines nearly killed me. With those green lasers and such..
I went back at level 70, lol.
starfoxfan007
LOL xDD Nice one XD
i kept getting screwed over by the Dark Lakitus =u=
+Chara Dreemurr / Madison T my first time vsing bonetail, myn max hp was 10.... and I actully won! (with like 4 hp left)
Heh now thats noice but not nice
I did a pit of 100 trials run and all of my partners died, so I had to fight Bonetail with just Mario, and I had 10 hp left and beat him. I kept doing sweet treat
Imagine if the curse had doubled the star points oh my God
Finally today I fucking beat bone tail at 9:54 p.m on May 26 2016
Wish me luck. I will try and conquer this beast in a week or 2.
Glad to see people are still playing this game, I think I beat him in 2005.
+Ask me anything I know how you feel. I'm glad I bought it back in '06.
I will be playing through this game again, 100%-ing it sometime soon, and I will attempt to take on this beast...I've only ever made it to the eighty-somethingth floor.
the only RPG Game where nearly every Enemy gives you more exp then final boss
:3
I loooooooooooved this game
Nice Super Guarding, you're really good at that
Thanks mate, I try :D
+starfoxfan007 Your Welcome

@@afloofyvixen9514 My biggest achievement of all time.
I think it was kind of bull when I beat Bonetail and then someone went on my gamecube and deleted my save. :'(
Named my pink yoshi after one of my good friends irl haha
Glad this is getting a remake next year.
Maybe I'll face my fear and do the pit before Chapter 8 instead of after.
I'd always do the pit before chapter 8. Makes me an Overpowered machine and the final boss that much more fun.
Nintendo needs to stop messing around and make a super Mario rpg 2 😩
I notice the roar that Bonetail makes is very similar to Rayquaza's cry.
I did the whole pit first try.
The pit of a hundred trials is, from what i've deduced -- an endurance test.
I mixed and matched diffrent badges, utilized ALLL my partners, got TWO Amazy Dayzees, it was absolutely wild. I FINISHED the main game, just jumped right into this, played all night, and got this all first try.
Now, as I said, I mixed and matched several badges, but here's the ones I ALWAYS had on.
HP plus badges, FP plus badges, HP partner badges, charge badge, charge partner badge, quick change, feeling fine, feeling fine P, and lucky day was really useful once I got it.
Bonetail is a direct reflection of the pit itself, you have to endure against Bonetail's attacks and just keep chipping away, all it took was using spring jumps and Bobbery's basic bomb attack, some charging here and there, and using showstopper like twice, to prevail, of course you have to ABSOLUTELY keep your guard up.
Items? Get like 6 Ultra Shrooms, 6 Jammin Jellies, and the rest in Life Shrooms.
Make sure to get a SPECIAL Spell from Merluvlee, trust me, you'll need it.
And uh, honest to god. Bonetail is nowhere near as hard as Shadow Queen, lmao. If you manage to get there with full hp and fp, you should be fine, like i did.
Shadow Queen? You literally GET full health, fp, everything and she STILL had me struggling on.
Nice start at the beginning with two amazy dayzees. I wrote about them in my childhood picture book
*19:28** Hey, Look! Something came out of his mouth! I did not expect that at all!*
It’s too bad they didn’t have the chest floating in bone tails stomach through the fight so it would make sense why he spits it up after
TY for including the Tattle on this boss.
The music in the Pit of 100 Trials is so relaxing.😎
Totally bro.
Nice job beating bone tail! :D I beat him too and let me tell you that Bonetail and all the monsters in the lowest levels of the pit of 100 trails were tough to beat! :P >:O Bonetail being at the lowest levels reminds me of this bible passage Revelation 20:1-15 for that bible passage says that a dragon (which is the Devil Satan) had been thrown into the bottomless pit and not to mention Bonetail's sister Hooktail and the Shadow Queen remind me of The Devil Satan for they try to bargain with Mario with offers that he should refuse or else he will get hurt or game over for that is just like how the Devil Satan and his demons make deals with people that often get them into trouble or hell which makes me wonder if the Shadow Queen really is the equivalent of Satan in the Paper Mario universe pardon my religious talk! :D
Holy shit, dude! Two Amazee Dayzee and you beat both of them?! OMG...YOU ARE THE LUCKIEST S.O.B ALIVE! 100 Star Points! Oh my god, man! Fantastic work!
“Wow! What a freak!”
Me: What she said.
Just beat Bonetail in the remake. Was so unsure I would've even made it but Flurrie kept getting rounds where she blew away every enemy with Gale Force plus a super clutch level up on floor 98 made me confident enough to take him on and I won on my first try.
I never use Flurrie, she's so damn ugly lol. Goombella, Yoshi, Bobbery and Vivian are my go-to partners.
Good job tho. I haven't gotten to Bonetail just yet in the remake, about to start chapter 6 (or 7?) to go to Fahr Outpost.
The hardest boss in the game.
holy shit this boss give so much problems i lost half of my items beucase this godamn boss and take so long to defeat him holy moly (sorry for my bad english im brazillian i dont know how to speak english correctly)
***** Don't worry about it. Thanks for the comment!
starfoxfan007 just question do you think this boss is really really hard? (for me this boss is hard as hell)
***** It's only hard if you don't have a good amount of items after you get to him. Also, some sort of strategy is good so that he doesn't destroy you. I usually have a lot of power+ badges on so that I can deal lots of damage. Be sure to use the Feeling Fine badge too so you don't get frozen/poisoned/etc - otherwise, you're kinda screwed.
My main strategy for doing the pit itself is to ocassionally use the Sweet Treat or Sweet Feast star moves to keep your HP and FP up, so that you can preserve your items for Bonetail.
starfoxfan007 thanks for responding my question (my bad english attacks again,i think)
I used my life shrooms earlier. And it's ok since I was using power buffs on mario mainly to dish out more damage. I ran through my partners on purpose haha.
Oh dear god... You couldn't have been stuck with a worse audience. Power Lift + uber strategy = Pit and Bonetail sweep. Seriously, the uber strategy is OP as hell. It makes the last 30 floors and Bonetial a joke. I killed Bowser, Kammy, and Grouds in one turn with that strategy using Yoshi.
Yeah, I could just play normally and use other badges but I always find myself trying to beat this game quickly over a vacation...so I just buff myself up with power plus badges and try to dish out large numbers of damage haha.
starfoxfan007 I made a video about the uber strategy.
DarkBirgon Oh, I just watched it, but I don't use a bunch of special items or partner peril badges. I just use a few power plus badges, feeling fine, and charge my partner and mario up, then use power lift. Then for items I just have a good amount of hp and fp, nothing complicated like your uber strategy xD
starfoxfan007 Believe it or not I came up with that all by myself 3 years ago. I just now made it into a video to help out a few people. Thank you for watching my video.
Shieet, I didn't even know you had something like that thought of haha. All I would usually see would be people using "Danger Mario" haha.
okay thats insane with them Amazy Dayzees
How can 2 Amazy Dayzees instantly give you a LV UP thats mind-blowing and I usually only get to kill one of them in the Twilight Forest but yep Im Amazy Dayzee Hunting now since I got a memory refresher on them now.
I died on my first attempt going after Bonetail but after second try as soon as I got to him I literally thought I was out of healing items I dropped his health down to 100 next thing you know he started self healing which pissed me off. By the time I dropped him down to 60 I was at 10 health next thing I said was "I need a damn miracle :(" so I scrolled through my item list next thing you know, I found an Ultra Shrooms which LITERALLY turned EVERYTHING AROUND I used it on me went back to full health which was 60 (of course me not my teammate because I was on the verge of dying), then I literally yelled "OKAY BITCH LET'S FINISH THIS" and suddenly beaten him with 20 health left 😰😰😰😰 and I had him tallied toooooo so double win for me.
Sheeeeyiiiiiiit, the way you did it makes me look like a noob.
Well I jacked off for a lot of the video and stalled, but I wanted to finish him off with a supernova but didnt have enough star power lol
just like Hard playing as wumba in tower of tradegy!!!
matthew6252 Ah I love the tower of tragedy quiz! Especially when you try to answer the question before grunty finishes saying it xD
@ Joe: Just equip the badge, and use it again and again during battles under the flag icon
I meant the "tactics" option when you're in a battle. It'll appear there when you have the badge equipped, your partner requires their own unique "partner charge" badge however. Each charge in battle costs 1FP.
2 amazie daises, you lucky bitch!!!!!!!
Tae Ponder I know haha. I've never encountered 2 at once before.
starfoxfan007 4. I have no idea how. And I got double star points, too!
starfoxfan007 Floor 98 is always 2 amazy daisies.
*CALCIUM DRAGON*
I beat him on my first try with 2 badges and no ms mowz, I just kept countering his breath attacks, my arrogance for gaming just skyrocketed
Whoa man ease up on the steroids lol
NO! I REFUSE! HOW DARE YOU ATTEMPT TO HINDER MY SUPERHUMAN PAPER MARIO ABILITIES MORTAL! RAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH (POWER SMASH) (11 DAMAGE) (STYLISH!) (STYLISH!)
Ok, I can mash A as well as the next guy, but I've never seen someone mash R so fast. Do you have some sort of controller mod?
+Jonathan Cangelosi There's a development badge, you hold down R or L, and it automatically performs all action commands for you flawlessly. Also does all the stylish stuff for ya.
+PeterS768 Oh shiz forgot about this buried comment. I hit R really fast using my fast clicking method, I have another video showing it haha.
Remember one time getting all the way down to bonetail and then my power cut out.
Wow, what a freak.
nice video! i remember having to go through zess t cooking all my jelly ultras and zess dynmites for this part of the game xD
Thanks! I sometimes would use a notepad and tally up how many HP/FP points worth of items I had on myself at the time before I would start haha.
you too? haha yah, i can't remember how many times i tryed to fight amazy dayzees on the twilight trail just to get myself to 100 hp
You got yourself to 100 hp?! Holy hell, the most I'd ever get to on a playthrough was 60 hp.
well i was a determined kid ;P i made sure to have 100 hp 50 or 60 fp and around 69 bp. i wanted to make SURE i beat bonetail lol. I actually still have that save file and im level 42
starfoxfan007 lol is it wrong that im level 70 at the game?
How long would you say it took to explore the whole Pit. I have about 65 Hp, 65FP and 39 BP.
Took me 2-4 hrs with half the hp and fp lol. so maybe around that much
Wish you could get enough badge points to equip ALL the badges in the game!So what does each flame color do to you?
+Kenny Carter If you're talking about Bonetail's breath attacks, I think they can: freeze you, burn you, make you dizzy, put you to sleep, etc.
the original sans undertale
Is it bad that like 8 floors before bone tale I got 3 poison mushrooms
The guy not reason that he and shadow queen drop 1 exp is that by the time you fight them you're at such a high level that you wouldn't need anymore.
I got to bonetail then died after 2 turns ( only packed 2 ultrashrooms :(
@Jonathon Cangelosi: There's a video that I have where I show how I press the buttons fast in this game. Although I don't show myself pressing the R button really fast, it's the same method. It's my video called "fastest button masher ever"
I gotta hand it to ya; you are one tough SOB and a god at this game!
I respect you on the highest level
Aww, thanks man! I've played through it dozens of times so I know my way around :D Jacob Aldrich
starfoxfan007 no problem man
I've played this only a few times (every time the data would be corrupted and I would lose all my data, but I got a new memory card, so that shouldn't happen anymore), and I have NEVER been this good
Jacob Aldrich
Oh the pain of corrupted memory cards D: I don't think my gamecube memory cards have ever gotten corrupted before, but my Nintendo 64 memory pak definitely has corrupted itself plenty of times.
starfoxfan007 yea I know...it sucked
I would beat the game, go back and play it, and all (I mean ALL) my data would be lost (corrupted)
I would get sooooooo pissed
"AROOOOOOOO!" Bonetail is so much easier than Shadow Queen. Without question.
Very well done :) I enjoyed watching
Thank you :) I'll do my best to start uploading videos again this summer after I graduate when I have time to do stuff. Maybe some Goldeneye n64, the world is not enough 007 n64, banjo kazooie, star fox 64, smash bros, and maybe some Zelda stuff too :D
5:14 - FUCK... DRY BONES AUDIENCE.
Kind of risky taking on Bonetail at level 31. And you basically just let your baby Yoshi be a meat shield for you. You didn't even try very hard to protect him.
Do you all remember the rage you've felt from all the times you battled this boss?
*_Are you ready to relive that rage once again?_*
Hell yeah I'm 100% ready to do this bullshit again!
Mes Paper Mario préféré sont Paper Mario: La Porte Millénaire, et Super Paper Mario !
Beat Bonetail with the danger Mario strat. Easy as pizza pies and meatballs
Level 33... (Post Chapter 7).
All Crystal Stars, all Ultra partners.
Pierce Hammer + 2 remaining Life Shroom and Ultra Shrooms + Flurrie.
I only survived the exact turns to beat him with 10 hp and no more hp and fp recovers. But is possible, That's the only battle where Flurrie was Useful.
This is the very hardest bosses I've ever beat
the way you play reminds me of the way i play, with all the ocd
ShadowLink678 I guess I sometimes act with OCD tendencies in video games haha.
That cheeky appeal.
Just beat him on lvl 26 < Used all my allies as shields Lucky Day and pretty lucky > ran into so many Amazee Dazees
(( Equip Simplifier )) For Bone Tail
Showboating at the end, lol. Alright Vegeta.
I beat the 100 level Trials before. ^w^
Here some advice..
Skip a lot of levels by finding Pungry (The Mover) and pay him to skip 2 to 5 levels down.
That was easy.^O^
I beat Bonetail on Level 99, I had 20 Jelly Ultras with me and I used 3 of 'em.
Me: Cringing as he wastes his first turn Tattling a boss when you can just get the tattle info for free later...
Thank you for your comment!
