Boss Basses return in ''Yoshi's Island DS'', in which they are found in many levels of [[World 3 (Yoshi's Island DS)|World 3]]. Boss Bass attacks by hopping out of the water, and if a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] is underneath a Boss Bass's mouth during its descent, the Boss Bass eats him and the baby on his back, immediately resulting in the loss of an extra life. Boss Bass cannot be defeated, although if a Yoshi throws an [[Yoshi Egg|egg]] at it, a Boss Bass appears in the [[Island Museum]], specifically within the Tropical Section of the Aquatic Enemy Exhibit.
The mid-boss of World 3 is named [[Bessie Bass]], who is a Big Bertha but with the behavior of a Boss Bass.
=== ''Super Paper Mario'' ===
Boss Basses do not appear in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', although they are mentioned in [[The Underwhere]] by one of the [[Shaydes]], who says that that he fell into the ocean once, but luckily could swim as well as a Cheep-Cheep. Unfortunately, a Boss Bass thought that since he swam like a Cheep-Cheep, he was a Cheep-Cheep and ate him.

==Trivia==
*Despite being a large variant of a Cheep Cheep, a Boss Bass eats smaller ones. They also have trouble distinguishing them from something else, as proven in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' when a [[Shayde]] said that he fell into the ocean once, but luckily could swim as well as a Cheep-Cheep. Unfortunately, a Boss Bass thought that since he swam like a Cheep-Cheep, the huge fish ate him.
