Break the rules when necessary. Also, many of the giant bosses in BIS supply you with mushrooms. The Bowser Duo is possible because if you deal over 100 damage then it is possible. The Elder Shrooboid is also possible if you are good enough at it, if you deal ≤300 damage then he is possible.

For anyone wondering why he can't use the mush badge for this challenge is because it is the most OP item in the game. It makes it so that the minimum damage you do is much higher. For example when you do a multi-hit attack eventually the hits you do will do 1 damage. But, if you max out your mushrooms, your minimum damage would be over 100 instead of 1 which would mean you could destroy every boss at a very low level.

[@ryanprjgamingchannel9437]

Did a research here: To outspeed the final boss (with all parts included) you must have at least 120 speed or more (though having at least 90 speed means Cackletta only attacks once unless he kills Mario if only he has 90-119 speed and Luigi doesn't have at least 90 speed). Or you can just equip #1 Trousers or Beanstar Pants (Luigi can alternatively wear Anuboo Jeans). As Shyguymask mentions, the annoying hands swinging attack can be disabled by killing off one of the arms. The left arm from game screen is lightning while right arm is fire. The latter attack is more dangerous because def debuff, so you should just prioritize kill this part first. Also, Shyguymask would've made even the final bosses even more anticlimatic if he went with Mush badge and max shrooms, but he chose to not to and equip Great Force instead (which would normally make the bros more glass cannon due to 2x damage taken and dealt). Nice one, Shyguymask!

Ontop of overleveling, I'd like to see some strategies behind the stat boosts too to see your stat spread! Thought would be neat.

Now beat the game only leveling up health. The Chuggaaconroy way. (It's also what me and my brother did the first time we played through the game and it made the game super hard)

[@quackmahnameisnowquack9566]

Same

Also, the fact that you specified "no Mush Badge" amuses me because I actually remember how broken those things were.

its good looking back the vid, that saved your channel now it is rising :D

Pretty sure the 3DS version is beatable with Muddy Pants - they make Luigi take 0 damage from monsters slower than him

[@adrianaardila1321]

Nope it is programed to deal 999 no matter what even with the you must losse the shorb fight at the beginning of partners in time no matter how hard you try even I hacked the game had 999 defense and 9999 still killed both bros as it's programed

"How to win without moving: just being like 557555 levels ahead. Ez game xdxd" This has the same logic as beating Pokemon League with a lv 100 Pokemon

8:31 'cause you where lucky in worst part he would stole Mario's or Luigi's hammer and (as you can't dodge)you would take VERY heavy damage.

[@TunaBear64]

Like at 10:08?

[@Super_1987]

@@TunaBear64 Yes, exactly.

[@deaththekid922]

i just finished watching the mario and luigi bowser inside story video , i never realized how low res the gba was compared to the ds until now , theres a huge difference with the bosses and stuff

[@JJFBlaster]

I have seen many boss rankings, Cackletta's soul usually was in the top 10 hardest boss rankings

[@Shyguymask]

It's actually much harder in the remake as well. Her body parts have more HP, her attacks do much more damage with some of them being harder to avoid and she also debuff your stats much more frequently.

[@BlueDragonknight375]

Oh joy. Cackletta is why I'm hesitant to pick up Super Star Saga. Hearing that she's even worse in the remake does not help.

[@CaptainCFalcon]

@@BlueDragonknight375 I wouldn't hold out on a game just because of one boss, my guy. Especially not any of the Mario & Luigi RPGs. Super Star Saga is a hella fun game. Trust me, not playing this game is a mistake.

[@JJFBlaster]

Try the original on virtual console or something. Besides the articles and videos I looked at are a few years old, even though one said the original one was number 1... Just have a ton of health and mushrooms and you're probably good to go!

[@anotheronebitesthedust6100]

she isn't even THAT hard. i honestly don't know where you guys got your boss rankings.

[@charlesdemagalhaes960]

i like how mario and popple peacefully take bean star to a safe place before atacking each other

[@VaporwaveSunset]

5:09 You were way overleveled for some of these bosses. I took 35+ damage from cackletta's attacks (I was playing the 3DS remake)

[@syrelian]

3DS remake has largely retuned damage, and he actually needed that much leveling simply to be fast enough to survive the opening round

[@TunaBear64]

In the 3DS version the enemies do real damage. The OG version is easy as heck.
